Bon Secours Mercy Health Will Be Leaving Anthem Medicare Advantage Network in Ohio

08-30-2023

Anthem has been working closely with Bon Secours Mercy Health but have not reached an agreement to keep them in network. This means, Bon Secours Mercy Health* will be leaving Anthem’s Medicare Advantage network on 10/1/2023. After this date, members may pay more for care received from Bon Secours Mercy Health facilities.

Anthem is sending letters to impacted members. If members are receiving ongoing treatments, they may be able to receive coverage for this provider a little while longer. Members should contact Customer Service to discuss their options.

This situation DOES NOT impact Medicare Supplement plans. Medicare Supplement members may continue to see any doctor or hospital that accepts Medicare patients.

Anthem will continue to negotiate with Bon Secours Mercy Health and hope to reach an agreement that keeps them in our networks. We will let you and our members know if this happens. Please visit www.anthem.com/mercyhealthohio for the latest information.

* It is important to note that this does not apply to the following Bon Secours Mercy Health hospitals: Mercy Defiance, Mercy St. Anne, Mercy St. Charles, Mercy St. Vincent, Mercy Tiffin, and Mercy Willard
