Established in 1942, Regence Blue Cross Blue Shield was the first organization to offer health insurance to Utah residents. For over 60 years, this non-profit establishment has remained a dominant figure in the state’s health care industry with close to 4,000 licensed physicians providing affordable quality health care to over 400,000 members, thereby maintaining its title of Utah’s largest health insurance carrier. Clearly innovative, Regence Blue Cross Blue Shield Utah developed HealthWise, one of the state’s first HMOs (1982); ValueCare PPO (1984); and BlueChoices (2002) to meet the ever-changing desires of consumers. Headquartered in Salt Lake City, Regence Blue Cross Blue Shield Utah is a division of the Regence Group. The Regence Group is also comprised of Regence Blue Cross Blue Shield of Oregon (headquartered in Portland), Regence Blue Shield (headquartered in Seattle) and Regence Blue Shield of Idaho (headquartered in Lewiston). Collectively, the providers in these four states offer the most comprehensive health care services to over 3 million people in the Pacific Northwest.
