Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts (BCBSMA) is committed to improving the health and wellness of its 3 million members. BCBSMA is committed to assisting physicians and hospitals in their mission to continuously improve the extraordinary quality of care that makes the state's healthcare world-renowned. BCBSMA is equally concerned about the estimated 500,000 Massachusetts residents who have no health insurance at all. BCBSMA is in the midst of vigorous, healthy public debate on the best strategy for giving its uninsured neighbors the care and peace of mind they deserve. With the business, labor and healthcare communities as well as its state government all actively engaged, BCBSMA believes a caring, practical, fiscally prudent solution is not only possible - it is probable.
