Geisinger Health Plan adds Penn State Health providers to its network
Geisinger Health Plan adds Penn State Health providers to its network
Danville-based Geisinger Health Plan added Penn State Heath to its network of providers last month.
The hospital system’s health insurance organization consisting of about 550,000 members now includes Penn State Health‘s provider network of 2,000 physicians and 127 medical office sites.
Geisinger Health plan announced the addition to its plan in a press release this week. Members of the plan now have facilities such as Penn State Health Milton S. Hershey Medical Center, Penn State Children’s Hospital, Penn State Cancer Institute and Penn State Health St. Joseph Medical Center in Bern Township, Berks County to choose from as in-network, preferred providers.
“For many years, Penn State Health St. Joseph patients in the Berks County region and Geisinger employees and their dependents with Geisinger Health Plan coverage have been able to access our health care services,” said Steve Massini, Penn State Health CEO. “This new agreement builds on that foundation and lets us ensure that same access to all Penn State Health facilities and providers across our network for each Geisinger Health Plan member.”
Geisinger and Penn State Health have continued to expand upon a relationship between their hospitals in the past year with Penn State Health offering both cardiothoracic and neurosurgery services at Geisinger Holy Spirit in East Pennsboro Township.
