BCBS Massachusetts adds 3 physician groups amid primary care shortage

Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts added three physician groups to its network as the payer said the state continues to experience a primary care physician shortage due to increased patient demand and more clinicians leaving the field.

The three groups — Eden Health, On Belay Health Solutions and VillageMD — are available now to most of its members, according to a May 16 news release from BCBS Massachusetts. 

As part of their agreements, the groups are participating in the payer's value-based payment program and offering beneficiaries access to virtual and in-person primary care.
