THE WOODLANDS, TX -- As you know, on March 1, 2022, BlueCross BlueShield of Texas (BCBSTX) allowed Memorial Hermann contracts for our hospital facilities, physician group and accountable care program to expire. Since then, Memorial Hermann has remained committed to engaging with BCBSTX in meaningful discussions that put our patients first.

We are pleased to share that Memorial Hermann has reached an agreement to continue our relationship with BlueCross BlueShield of Texas (BCBSTX), maintaining the integrity of both our health system and our clinically integrated physician network (MHMD), so we can continue serving our patients with exceptional, high-quality, affordable health care.

This means that in-network access to Memorial Hermann’s hospitals, facilities and affiliated providers is restored for our patients with BCBSTX commercial PPO/POS, EPO, Blue Essentials HMO, and Medicare Advantage HMO/PPO health plans, and they will not experience any further disruption in their care, effective immediately.

As the state’s largest health insurer, BCBSTX’s commitment to the sustainability of our health system, our physician network, and our Accountable Care Organization is integral to the health and wellbeing of the many communities we have proudly served for more than a century. It is our distinct honor and privilege to continue delivering these services as in-network providers, for all those who need us, for many more years to come.

Thank you for entrusting us with your care.
