Blue Shield offers one of the largest networks in California and has been able to negotiate substantially lower rates for our members. Blue Shield is a San Francisco-based, not-for-profit health plan with nearly 65 years of service. As a not-for-profit entity, Blue Shield is guided by their mission – to ensure all Californians have access to high-quality health care at a reasonable price.

Blue Shield makes it easier for you to choose the right provider. You can access quality and efficiency indicators, and patient satisfaction scores for PPO providers, medical groups and hospitals, through the Performance Profile in the Find a Network Provider section. Because you should be informed when making important health care decisions, our Performance Profile tool provides insight into performance based on nationally recognized quality measures.
