Great news! Associate premiums for BlueCross BlueShield (BCBS) and Kaiser plans will not increase in 2026. While many companies are facing rising medical costs, Veradigm has been able to maintain the same premiums for another year.
Plan features will remain the same for BCBS medical plans. For Kaiser medical plans, all features will also stay the same except the Kaiser HSA plan deductible for each covered family member (for any tier above employee-only), which will increase to $3,400 (from $3,300). The total family deductible remains $5,000.
New for BCBS plans: Virta and GLP-1 for weight loss. Associates currently using or planning to use a GLP-1 for weight loss must participate in the Virta program. Virta provides medical oversight, nutrition support, and coaching to help you use the medication safely and effectively while supporting your weight-loss goals. Veradigm is committed to supporting associates in their efforts to achieve and maintain weight loss.
As a reminder, GLP-1 costs depend on your plan. Be sure to review the prescription drug details when choosing your 2026 coverage. In Optum Rx plans, Zepbound and Wegovy are Tier 2 Preferred Brand drugs.
