The following is a statement from BCBSNC in response to NCDOI's Voluntary Settlement Agreement:

“I really enjoyed last year’s clinics and I learned from the girls as much as I taught them,” said Hamm. “It’s a thrill every time I come back to North Carolina, where so much of my growth and development as an athlete – and as a person – took place. I look forward to meeting more aspiring athletes who are living fearless.”

When we invest in communities across North Carolina, everyone who lives in our state enjoys the return on those investments. When a hungry family is able to eat three nutritious meals a day or when North Carolinians are leading more active lifestyles, it makes our state a better place to live for all of us.

“We are working hard to make the Affordable Care Act work for our customers and our company,” said BCBSNC President and CEO Brad Wilson. “The federal government’s failure to honor its legal obligations contributed significantly to our ACA losses in 2014 and 2015 and makes it more challenging for our company to continue selling ACA products to our customers.”

“In 2015, we saw rising prices for many drugs, both generic and name brand drugs, that a large number of ACA customers use,” said Brian Tajlili, director of actuarial and pricing services for BCBSNC. “In fact, seven drugs cost our company over $139 million to cover ACA customers last year .”

“John’s history as a leader in business and his involvement in community health organizations will bring knowledge and perspective that is valuable to our company, especially during a time of tremendous change in health care,” said Blue Cross President and CEO, Brad Wilson.

• Expanded relationship with global leader enables BCBSNC professionals to perform more complex work to deliver greater value to customers. • BCBSNC is able to handle more calls and to expand capacity quickly in times of need.
