Blue Cross Blue Shield of Arizona
Blue Cross Blue Shield of Arizona's (BCBSAZ) mission is to provide the best value in health insurance and to improve the quality of life for Arizonans. BCBSAZ was formed 69 years ago and has been part of the fabric of the community ever since. Today, BCBSAZ is the health insurance company of choice in Arizona, entrusted by 1.1 million individuals from Phoenix and Tucson to Flagstaff, Prescott, Yuma and virtually every community in between.
With headquarters in Phoenix and offices in Tempe, Tucson, and Flagstaff, BCBSAZ employs more than 1,500 people, all of whom live and work in Arizona. The company saw a 5 percent increase in customers in 2007, and customer satisfaction continued to remain high, with 9 out of 10 of its members surveyed reporting that they are satisfied with BCBSAZ. In recent public recognition, BCBSAZ scored high marks as well: Phoenix Business Journal ranked BCBSAZ as one of the Best Places to Work in the Valley in 2005 and 2006, and in 2008 Arizona Business magazine ranked BCBSAZ as the Number 1 PPO in Arizona, marking the seventh year it has received that honor.
In 2007, BCBSAZ also processed $2.71 billion in medical claims on behalf of its 1.1 million customers.
