Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina (Blue Cross NC) began enrolling its first members in Healthy Blue on March 15. The Medicaid managed care plan features a provider network with more than 48,000 physicians and other practitioners, including most of the state’s hospitals and health systems.

A recent $500,000 donation from Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina brought them close to their goal of $1 million for metastatic breast cancer research grants.
