LANSING, Mich. (WILX) - Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan and Michigan Medicine have reached a new long-term contract agreement, the organizations announced Wednesday.

The agreement will maintain in-network status for Michigan Medicine’s academic medical center, affiliated facilities, clinics and physicians, ensuring continued access for patients covered by Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan.

“Blue Cross is pleased to reach this long-term agreement with our partners at Michigan Medicine — ensuring continued access to the system’s medical care services for our members, while advancing the affordability of their care and coverage,” said Tricia A.
