关于我们
EmblemHealth is one of America’s largest not-for-profit health insurers, serving more than three million people in the New York tristate area. With an 85-year legacy of serving New York communities, EmblemHealth offers a full range of commercial and government-sponsored health plans to employers, individuals, and families. We started back in the 1930s, at the height of the Great Depression. Out of hard times, the idea of health insurance was born — a system that would protect everyday people from financial misfortune if they had an accident or illness. Two companies from those early days of health insurance, Group Health Incorporated (GHI) and Health Insurance Plan of Greater New York (HIP), would later merge and become EmblemHealth. And after 85 years, our purpose as a not-for-profit is still the same — to provide quality, affordable health insurance for New Yorkers and their families. The EmblemHealth family of companies provides insurance plans, primary and specialty care, and wellness solutions. The family of companies covers the whole health journey, starting with affordable coverage through EmblemHealth, and ConnectiCare, a leading health plan in Connecticut. The family of companies also includes the AdvantageCare Physicians medical practice, and WellSpark Health, a barrier-breaking digital wellness company. As a family of companies with deep community roots, EmblemHealth Neighborhood Care and ConnectiCare Centers offer free wellness and community resources. Together, the family of companies creates healthier futures for customers and communities. We think of ourselves as an 85-year-old start-up — big enough to offer the stability and benefits of a major corporation, with a ferocious commitment to innovation, collaboration, and flexibility. We believe in what we’re doing. And we’re looking for passionate people to join us.

Preparing and sharing special meals is one of the great joys of the holiday season. Recently, a team of enthusiastic EmblemHealth volunteers donned their hairnets and stepped up at God's Love We Deliver to help provide nutritious, individually-tailored meals for people who are too sick to shop or cook for themselves - and had an absolute ball doing it! Thank you to the GLWD staff for a perfect afternoon in their kitchen.

Every year on November 20th we observe Transgender Day of Remembrance to honor and remember transgender individuals who have lost their lives due to violence, hate, or discrimination. It’s a day when the LGBTQ+ community and its allies can reflect on both the lives lost and the continuing challenges faced by transgender people. In the spirit of remembrance and action, PRISM - the EmblemHealth LGBTQ+ employee resource group - has compiled for its members a list of resources and information to help support the transgender community. One of those resources is the Human Rights Campaign Transgender Online Resource. Click the link to learn more. https://lnkd.in/dhwj2ZM

On Veterans Day, EmblemHealth hosted Voices of Valor: Honoring Our Veterans and Their Families. Moderated by Terri Rhymes-Lowery, the discussion highlighted what service and sacrifice mean to all of us and how we can honor and support veterans every day—not just on Veterans Day. Panelists Matthew Gonch and Michael Collins discussed how their military service instilled values like loyalty, structure, determination, teamwork, and leadership—traits that have shaped their careers and impact in the workplace. Linda Henderson, panelist and mother of a master sergeant in the Air Force Reserves, also offered a heartfelt perspective on the challenges military families face during deployments and emphasized how supportive leadership can make all the difference. We launched our Veterans Committee in 2023 to support employees who are veterans, active-duty service members, reservists, and military family members. Thank you to all veterans and military families for your service and sacrifices. We are committed to honoring, hiring, and supporting you every day.
