Current Situation of Florida Blue and Baptist Health Negotiations
The ongoing negotiations between Florida Blue and Baptist Health are at a standstill as the contract deadline approaches. This impasse could have significant consequences for patients relying on these healthcare services.
Potential Effects on Members
- As many as 50,000 Florida Blue members in northeast Florida might incur out-of-network costs.
- Critical services at Baptist Health and Wolfson Children’s Hospital may become financially burdensome.
