Bringing peace of mind through better health to our customers and communities
About us
As Tennessee's largest health plan, we've been helping Tennesseans find their own unique paths to good health for more than 70 years. More than that, we're your neighbors and friends – fellow Tennesseans with deep roots of caring tradition, a focused approach to physical, financial and community good health for today, and a bright outlook for an even healthier tomorrow. Our mission is simple: peace of mind through better health. We're an independent, not-for-profit, locally governed health plan company – meaning we live and work alongside our Tennessee business customers and plan members. Our 6,000 employees across the state have built our strong reputation for integrity, excellent service and community leadership. But we are also part of the BlueCross BlueShield Association, a nationwide association of health care plans. Because of this, our plan members have access to the same quality health benefits while traveling or living out of state that they have while in Tennessee. © 2018 BlueCross BlueShield of Tennessee, Inc., an Independent Licensee of the BlueCross BlueShield Association.

Social drivers of health are defined as obstacles that can lead to health disparities — unfair and avoidable differences in health status. In this op-ed for The Tennessean, Chief Data & Engagement Officer Sherri Zink defines social drivers of health — with a focus on food insecurity. She also shares how BlueCross is helping to address this challenge through our health equity report and partnerships with communities and providers. Several areas in Davidson County and Middle Tennessee are at increased risk of food insecurity. But as Sherri writes, we all have a role to play in equitable health care for all.
Why we must address social drivers of health as part of everyone’s health care journey
