Any opportunity to create social connection is an opportunity to promote health and well-being. When we engage with our community through events and activities, we explore where it’s possible to design these as dual-purpose events that can support both mental and physical needs in one setting. https://lnkd.in/eN2RXA-g

29% of adults are not taking their medications as prescribed because they simply can’t afford to. By working with organizations like RemediChain we are helping to reclaim unused drugs and redistribute them to patients in need. https://lnkd.in/evuxWJxe

Turning 65 soon? It's important to know when can you enroll in Medicare.

Children should have access to mental health care. That is one of the many reasons why we support El Futuro’s work to provide bilingual and culturally responsive mental health services in an environment focused on healing and hope. https://lnkd.in/gcrkJB5s

We are committed to supporting the health and wellbeing of our employees. To be certified as a 2024 Bell Seal for Workplace Mental Health by Mental Health America reinforces that we’re taking the right steps and inspires us to continue our work in creating a mentally healthy workplace. #LifeatBlueCrossNC

The shortage of health care providers in North Carolina leaves many expectant mothers without necessary support. Initiatives like the SEEDS ENC doula training program and community-based doulas such as Melba Perry aim to bridge the gap by providing emotional and informational assistance to improve maternal health outcomes. https://lnkd.in/eBMSNg_C

This year we celebrated 10 years of our annual Tech Summit, where we bring our technology professionals, leaders, and stakeholders together for a day full of industry education and technology inspiration. This year was no different as our team gathered to explore concepts, trends and technologies that will shape the future of technology at Blue Cross NC. #ItIsDifferentHere

"Never in a million years did I imagine I would be so blessed to have a career that aligns perfectly with my personal values, pushing me to lead with a servant's heart and challenging me in ways I truly love. Over the past year, I've had the privilege of addressing critical areas of need—housing, food insecurity, and access to care—here in the eastern part of the state. It's been incredibly rewarding to connect these issues with partners and friends who are deeply committed to serving this region." Thank you Gray Williams, STS for sharing the impact you have made serving on our county engagement team. Join us in celebrating her 1 year anniversary with #LifeAtBlueCrossNC
