Since Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Louisiana acquired Vantage Health Plan in 2019, our focus has been on combining the skills and strengths of both companies. As a result, all Vantage individual products were no longer offered in Louisiana as of January 1, 2024. Vantage Medicare Advantage and Exchange members are now covered under a consolidated suite of products, which will deliver the benefits and value our members have come to expect from us.

Vantage will continue to serve approximately 1,500 Commercial Group members, across the state of Louisiana. As each of the Vantage Commercial Groups’ contracts are up for renewal, they will be offered comparable group plans with Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Louisiana. This effort is expected to conclude in November 2024, effectively ending all Vantage membership in the state of Louisiana and closing the Vantage network

This notification serves as official notice under your Louisiana Vantage Health Plan network agreement that, as of December 31, 2024, your network agreement is hereby terminated.

If you are currently seeing Vantage members and are not part of our Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Louisiana network, we encourage you to visit the BCBSLA Provider Network page for more information on becoming Blue alongside us! We look forward to all that 2025 and beyond has to offer, and we hope that you chose to grow with us.

The aforementioned termination applies only to current Vantage Health Plan providers. Those who have moved over to Primewell Health Services of MS and Primewell Health Services of AR are not included or impacted by the termination of the Vantage network in Louisiana.
