Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Texas BCBSTX knows health care coverage in Texas; we invented it. We're Texas born and bred, and this is the only place we do business. Our mission since our founding more than 70 years ago has been to provide financially sound health care coverage to as many Texans as possible.
- We serve more than 3 million members in all 254 Texas counties.
- We serve some of the best known Texas companies, including Brookshire Grocery, Texas Instruments, H.E.B. Grocery, USAA and TXU, as well as the Texas A&M University System, the University of Texas System, the Employees Retirement System of Texas and the Teacher Retirement System-ActiveCare Program for public school employees.
- We maintain our state headquarters in Richardson, with regional headquarters in Houston, Austin and Lubbock.
- We process our members' claims in Texas -- an average of more than $22 million worth every day, five days a week -- in our claims and customer service facilities in Abilene, Houston, Marshall, Richardson, San Angelo, Waco and Wichita Falls.
We're a not-for-profit health insurance company -- the only one serving every corner of the state. We believe Texas consumers and employers deserve the best of both worlds -- access to affordable, quality health care and top-notch service from a company that focuses solely on customers, not shareholders. Customer value is our cornerstone.
