For more than 85 years, Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Nebraska has served as a champion for the health and well-being of Nebraskans. Founded in 1939 as the Associated Hospital Service of Nebraska, BCBSNE has grown from a small group of business leaders, physicians, and hospital administrators into a trusted health insurance partner serving approximately 700,000 people across the state. As an independent licensee of the Blue Cross Blue Shield Association and a community-based, member-owned company, BCBSNE combines local agility with national infrastructure to deliver innovative health coverage solutions that genuinely matter to the people and communities they serve.
The company exists because health coverage should be more than just a policy - it should provide peace of mind when people need it most. BCBSNE offers comprehensive health, dental, vision, and travel insurance plans for groups, individuals, and families, all while driving improved care delivery, lower costs, and better population health outcomes. Guided by values that put people first - People Matter, One Team, Default to Action, Do the Right Thing for the Right Reasons, Embrace Change, and Leadership and Ownership - BCBSNE continues to give back across Nebraska through the Nebraska Blue Foundation, volunteer initiatives, and corporate social responsibility efforts that support preventive health, education, and community vitality.
