Highmark Health Plans reported $6.1 billion in operating revenue and a $9 million operating loss in the first quarter of 2025, citing elevated utilization and continued industrywide pressures that carried over from last year. 

5. “Allegheny Health Network had a strong start to the year, reporting a positive operating margin for the first time in five years without pandemic-related assistance,” Carl Daley, CFO and treasurer of Highmark Health, said in a May 29 news release. “This was driven by higher patient volumes as a result of management actions and an unusually severe respiratory season.”
