The Lifetime Healthcare Companies Announce Plans To Affiliate With CDPHP

On May 22, Excellus BCBS announced that The Lifetime Healthcare Companies (LTHC), the parent company of Excellus BlueCross BlueShield, plans to form an affiliation with CDPHP, one of New York’s leading not-for-profit health insurance companies. This affiliation is aimed at improving access to affordable, high-quality care for residents across the state.

If approved by state and federal regulators, LTHC would become the parent company of CDPHP alongside Excellus BCBS. These organizations are committed to maintaining each insurer’s local brands and identity while working together to combine resources and share best practices to enhance the quality, affordability, and experience of care for millions of New Yorkers.

While regulatory approval is pending, Excellus would like to assure you that it will be business as usual for members, providers, employers and strategic partners. They will remain highly responsive to your individual needs.
