CHARLESTON, W.Va. — HealthNet Aeromedical Services announced on Wednesday it has approved a multi-year agreement with Highmark Blue Cross Blue Shield West Virginia for its service to remain in-network.
HealthNet Aeromedical Services is the only aeromedical provider for Highmark West Virginia customers.
“Having partnered with Highmark as an in-network provider for more than a decade, we are convinced this is the right approach for our patients and our program,” said Clinton Burley, the CEO and president of HealthNet Aeromedical Services. “We take great satisfaction in knowing the service we provide is saving lives, but it should not result in financial hardship for our patients.”
Cabell Huntington Hospital, Charleston Area Medical Center and WVU Center operate HealthNet’s services, which includes eight helicopter bases in West Virginia, one base in Ohio and one base in Kentucky.
