Health and Wellness Leader
As Mississippi's health and wellness leader, Blue Cross & Blue Shield of Mississippi has created benefits and programs to improve the health of all Mississippians. These include:
- the Healthy You! wellness benefit
- the "be smoke-free" Program
- the Healthy Workplace Program
- the Wellness Center Discount Program
- the "be RxSmart. it's your choice.sm" benefit
- and the community program, Let's Go Walkin' Mississippi.
You will learn more about these -- and how you can lead a healthier life -- under the be healthy section of this website.
We want all Mississippians to know their health risks (based on blood pressure, cholesterol levels, glucose levels and body mass index) so they can manage their health. We partner with Network Providers throughout the state to ensure our members can develop relationships with their healthcare providers -- relationships that are essential to develop and maintain a healthy lifestyle. Too many Mississippians suffer from chronic diseases, but we can help change that and improve their quality of life. Chronic diseases are debilitating and costly, but with the right information and motivation, people can learn to make healthy choices. The U.S. Surgeon General says most chronic diseases can be prevented by our personal decision to stop using tobacco, eat healthy foods, be physically active, maintain a healthy weight and receive regular health screenings.
Blue Cross & Blue Shield of Mississippi's benefits and programs are designed to help people make the right, healthy choices regarding these factors. Together, we can make a healthier Mississippi and help people live longer, healthier lives.
We put this advice into practice ourselves. As an employer, Blue Cross & Blue Shield of Mississippi has a tobacco-free campus, healthy cafeteria food, on-site fitness center, exercise classes before, during and after work hours, and regular health counseling regarding obesity, diabetes and more. The results have been to improve people's health and reduce our healthcare costs. If this sounds like a workplace for you, search for an open position to find one that's right for you.
We provide Network Blue healthcare coverage to groups, Blue Care coverage to individuals and families, and Blue 65 coverage to people who qualify for Medicare. Our team of Certified Agents around the state provides excellent service to members and groups.
