First, we listen
We actively listen to our members, providers, and state partners to understand what matters, what works, and what is needed. The key to Wellpoint’s success is developing strong relationships with all stakeholders to make sure our members have convenient and timely access to quality care and supports.
Promoting healthy families
Wellpoint is focused on achieving health and wellness for the entire family. We listen, respect, and engage families to understand their culture, values, beliefs, and lifestyles so we can develop meaningful relationships. We engage and support members and their families to set goals based on what is important to them, building on their strengths and enhancing each person’s resiliency.
Partners in healthcare
Our pledge to our provider partners is to simplify health care so providers can focus on health. Our locally-based integrated Provider Solutions teams employ a high-touch approach, focusing on our common goals of improving member access to care, promoting healthy lifestyles, and effectively managing costs. For providers, we support:
- Evidence-based practices and ongoing integrated care.
- Consolidate therapeutic and social efforts on behalf of members.
- Reducing administrative burdens.
