Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield in Indiana added a hospital and two health centers to its Medicare Advantage network March 11.
The additions are Schneck Medical Center in Seymour, Ind., and Chicago-based Oak Street Health's locations in Indianapolis and Fort Wayne, Ind.
Effective March 11, Schneck Medical Center's providers are now considered in-network for Anthem's Medicare Advantage members, who could see lower out-of-pocket expenses as a result.
The Oak Street locations will be added to Anthem's network April 1. Oak Street centers in Gary and Hammond, both in Indiana, are already in network with Anthem.
