Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Texas (BCBSTX), the third-party administrator of the HealthSelect of Texas® insurance plans, has reached an agreement with Baylor Scott & White Health. Contract negotiations with providers like Baylor Scott & White Health are a normal process for insurance companies.
The agreement means Baylor Scott & White Health doctors, hospitals and other facilities are still in the HealthSelectSM network. Participants in the HealthSelect of Texas medical plans can continue to see Baylor Scott & White providers at in-network coverage levels. This includes the following plans:
- HealthSelect of Texas,
- Consumer Directed HealthSelectSM,
- HealthSelectSM Secondary and
