BCN and Michigan Medicine reach contract agreement; network disruption averted
Summary
County HR reported an agreement this morning between BCN and Michigan Medicine that keeps Michigan Medicine providers in-network for BCN enrollees, averting a potential June 30 disruption; contract terms were not released.
Noelle Martin, the county HR generalist, told commissioners that BCN and Michigan Medicine reached a contract agreement on May 27, avoiding a planned June 30 termination of network status. She said the two parties issued a joint press release announcing the deal but that detailed terms remained confidential; the important immediate effect is that Michigan Medicine providers will remain in-network for BCN, which matters for county employees and residents who rely on those providers for specialized and chronic-care services.
Commissioners welcomed the news and noted the agreement eliminates a potential coverage disruption for county employees and local residents who access Michigan Medicine services.
