Winchester, Va.-based Valley Health has joined as an owner of Peak Health, a health plan launched by Morgantown-based West Virginia University Medicine. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Peak Health serves 32,000 WVU Medicine employees and dependents and will enter the West Virginia consumer market in 2024 with Medicare Advantage and small business plans, according to a Jan. 27 news release. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The plan will cover 8,000 Valley Health employees beginning in 2024. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Huntington, W.Va.-based Mountain Health Network and Marshall Health are also co-owners of the plan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In September 2022, WVU Medicine President and CEO Albert Wright said Peak Health is “the iPhone of health insurance” because it aims to replace traditional administrative layers between patients and providers.<\/p>\n\n\n\nSource: Beckers Payer<\/a><\/span>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
