HCA Florida Healthcare and Florida Blue

After March 1, 2023, many HCA Florida Healthcare facilities may no longer be participating providers in the Florida Blue commercial network.

We are working very hard right now to prevent this from happening, We certainly understand how unsettling this prospect may be for you and assure you we are actively negotiating in good faith to reach an agreement with Florida Bluea. Our goal is to reach a compromise with Florida Blue so you and your loved ones can continue to have the convenient access you expect at our 49 hospital campuses and other sites of care throughout Florida.

If a compromise cannot be reached by March 1, 2023, our facilities will no longer be part of the Florida Blue provider network. This means that as a Cigna member, you may either not be covered for non-emergency medical services at our facilities, or you may be required to pay higher out-of-network co-pays and deductibles for those services.

Whether or not we are able to reach an agreement with Florida Blue, all patients, including those with Florida Blue insurance, are always able to receive emergency services at our hospitals.

We remain firmly dedicated to providing healthcare services to support the health and wellness of our community.

You may also call the telephone number located on the back of your Florida Blue insurance card.

Thank you for your understanding and for the privilege of caring for you and your family.
