All regulatory requirements have been satisfied for BCBSTX and Allegian to complete this transaction. This transaction includes nearly 20,000 members, enrolled through small, medium and large employer groups, as well as Medicare Advantage plans.

“We are excited to welcome Allegian Health Plans members into the Blue Cross and Blue Shield family, and we will work closely with Allegian’s members, doctors, and other health care professionals to address each individual’s health care needs, while helping them successfully navigate the evolving health care system,” said Dr. Dan McCoy, president of BCBSTX. “We are working closely with AHP leaders to ensure a smooth transition for our new members.”
