Under a new two-year agreement, BCBSOK policyholders will retain in-network access to Integris’ facilities and more than 600 physicians. The contract extends in-network status to BCBSOK policyholders purchasing coverage on the state’s individual market, which will be effective at an unannounced date.
“Reaching an agreement was always our goal,” said Bruce Lawrence, president and CEO of Integris.
Reports of stalled contract negotiations between Integris and BCBSOK first surfaced in mid-July.
