Blue Cross Blue Shield of Arizona and Scottsdale-based HonorHealth will go out of network on Aug. 1 without a new contract in place.
The contract is for services provided at any HonorHealth facility and for all employed physicians at the health system. HonorHealth includes nine acute-care hospitals and more than 200 clinic locations.
The contract break will affect commercial and Medicare Advantage plans, but not Medicaid.
