Couldn't attend #AHIP2024? Here are 5 key takeaways from Highmark Health executives who spoke at the conference. Topics include GLP-1 coverage, behavioral health spending, governing generative AI, customer experience investments, and closing gaps in women's care.
Donna is a member who found pain relief from Highmark's Virtual Physical Care, powered by Sword Health. Read her story: https://bit.ly/3xg8LQd “I was working on the road at the time, so this worked for me,” she said. “It’s great for anyone that lives in an area with no physical therapy or no available appointments. It’s also more comfortable at home. All you need is a bed and a chair.”
Mon Health provides mental health support to patients and their families through a charitably funded program called Progressing Through Postpartum, or P3. We’re proud to help fund their work through Highmark Bright Blue Futures.

We've taken a leadership role in tackling the cost of prescription drugs, and we're seeing results. For example, Highmark members taking abiraterone acetate, which is used to treat prostate cancer, are saving an average of $90 per month in out-of-pocket expenses for the medication through Highmark’s role with CivicaScript and a select specialty pharmacy. Since this lower cost generic became available in September 2023, savings for our members, customers and the health plan have approached $3 million — and that's just on one drug. Learn more about our initiative to lower costs and increase access to generic medications below.
We’re proud to have helped Clean the World Global pack 1,000 hygiene kits for charities across our service areas.
