HighMark Blue Cross Blue Shield &
HighMark Blue Shield

Highmark Inc. (Highmark) is the largest health insurance company in Pennsylvania based on membership, and one of the largest health insurers in the United States.

Highmark operates as a Pennsylvania nonprofit hospital plan and a nonprofit professional health service plan. As an independent licensee of the Blue Cross and Blue Shield Association (BCBSA), they underwrite various indemnity and managed care health insurance products, as well as Medicare supplemental products, in their Pennsylvania service areas.

HighMark has a long history of serving their members and their communities. In the 1930s, Highmark's predecessor companies were established to help Pennsylvania's residents pay for health care. Today, that remains their mission - to provide access to affordable, quality health care enabling individuals to live longer, healthier lives.

In Pennsylvania, Highmark serves as an "insurer of last resort," helping to keep the state's uninsured population among the lowest in the nation.

Highmark was created in 1996 by the consolidation of two Pennsylvania licensees of the Blue Cross and Blue Shield Association - Pennsylvania Blue Shield (now Highmark Blue Shield) and a Blue Cross plan in western Pennsylvania (now Highmark Blue Cross Blue Shield).
