Evaluating Your Financial Health with Life Insurance Benefits
BusinessWire - Tue Sep 06, 8:36AM CDT
Many employee wellness programs focus on promoting health and productivity, but what about financial wellness? Life insurance, a component of employer financial wellness programs, is an essential step in planning for a family's financial future, but for many Americans, it can be difficult to know how much life insurance is enough. In many cases, the basic benefits provided by an employer-sponsored plan may not be sufficient to cover all of a family's financial needs after the death of a loved one. During Life Insurance Awareness Month this September, Anthem encourages you to evaluate your financial health with life insurance benefits.

The Anthem Foundation Hits the Road with the American Heart Association for Annual Hands-Only CPR Mobile Tour
BusinessWire - Thu Sep 01, 8:00AM CDT
Imagine being able to quickly react and perform Hands-Only CPR on someone suffering a cardiac arrest and possibly saving their life. With more than 70 percent of all out-of-hospital cardiac arrests happening at home, then that means at some point a person will likely be called upon to perform this critical skill to save the life of someone they know and love. Beginning this month, the American Heart Association (AHA), the world's leading voluntary health organization devoted to fighting cardiovascular disease, in collaboration with the Anthem Foundation, the philanthropic arm of Anthem, Inc., will launch the 2016 Hands-Only CPR Mobile Tour. The initiative continues their work to increase the number of people who are trained in Hands-Only CPR by offering free instruction in select cities throughout Florida, Georgia, Virginia, West Virginia, Ohio and Indiana.

Medicaid Market Heats Up, Consolidation Drives Growth Among Leading Insurers, AIS Research Shows
PRWeb - Thu Sep 01, 5:04AM CDT
The top 10 Medicaid insurers in the U.S. represent 57% of the managed Medicaid market, according to research in the Atlantic Information Services, Inc.'s (AIS) recently released Medicare and Medicaid Market Data -- a number that's sure to keep growing amid industry consolidations. Four of the top 10 companies have been involved with mergers and acquisitions that would allow them to scoop up even more of the market, AIS research shows. While the proposed merger of Anthem Inc. and Cigna Corp. -- currently being contested by the Department of Justice (DOJ) -- would not add significant Medicaid lives to Anthem, Aetna could stand to gain more than 400,000 Medicaid lives if its proposed merger with Humana survives its own DOJ lawsuit, according to AIS.
