What This Means for You
BCBSIL is expanding its network of contracted providers which will allow greater access to high quality and cost-effective health care.

For non-delegated medical groups and independent providers, you may initiate the contracting process with BCBSIL for the MA HMO or MA PPO products by completing the Provider Onboarding Form.

For existing delegated medical groups, BCBSIL does not contract directly with providers for our MA HMO or MA PPO products. If you would like to participate in these networks, contact a BCBSIL contracting MA Medical Group or IPA in their area.
