NorthBay Healthcare Announces Contract with Blue Shield
Effective October 1, 2008

NorthBay Healthcare and Blue Shield of California have signed a multi-year agreement under which NorthBay Healthcare will provide services to Blue Shield members at NorthBay’s two community hospitals and its comprehensive network of primary care and specialty physicians, effective October 1, 2008.

 

Under the agreement, Blue Shield’s HMO and PPO members will have access to NorthBay’s physician network and its two hospitals, NorthBay VacaValley Hospital in Vacaville and NorthBay Medical Center in Fairfield.

 

This news comes at a particularly good time for members of CalPERS (California Public Employees Retirement System) in Solano County, who will have the opportunity to enroll in the Blue Shield Access+ HMO option during the current enrollment period under way.  Solano County CalPERS members include employees of the County of Solano,  the school districts in Fairfield and Vacaville, the city of Vacaville and the state prison in Vacaville, among others.

 

 “We welcome CalPERS Blue Shield members back to NorthBay Healthcare”, said Gary Passama, President and CEO.  “We are delighted to have worked out an agreement with Blue Shield that will make NorthBay’s hospitals and physicians available once again to the thousands of CalPERS members and their families who live in our community.”
