About us
EmblemHealth is one of America’s largest not-for-profit health insurers, serving more than three million people in the New York tristate area. With an 85-year legacy of serving New York communities, EmblemHealth offers a full range of commercial and government-sponsored health plans to employers, individuals, and families. We started back in the 1930s, at the height of the Great Depression. Out of hard times, the idea of health insurance was born — a system that would protect everyday people from financial misfortune if they had an accident or illness. Two companies from those early days of health insurance, Group Health Incorporated (GHI) and Health Insurance Plan of Greater New York (HIP), would later merge and become EmblemHealth. And after 85 years, our purpose as a not-for-profit is still the same — to provide quality, affordable health insurance for New Yorkers and their families. The EmblemHealth family of companies provides insurance plans, primary and specialty care, and wellness solutions. The family of companies covers the whole health journey, starting with affordable coverage through EmblemHealth, and ConnectiCare, a leading health plan in Connecticut. The family of companies also includes the AdvantageCare Physicians medical practice, and WellSpark Health, a barrier-breaking digital wellness company. As a family of companies with deep community roots, EmblemHealth Neighborhood Care and ConnectiCare Centers offer free wellness and community resources. Together, the family of companies creates healthier futures for customers and communities. We think of ourselves as an 85-year-old start-up — big enough to offer the stability and benefits of a major corporation, with a ferocious commitment to innovation, collaboration, and flexibility. We believe in what we’re doing. And we’re looking for passionate people to join us.

In its first year, our BRAVO! program generated 23,940 moments of recognition. To give context to that number, individuals at EmblemHealth are seen, recognized, and celebrated every 26 minutes. “At EmblemHealth, recognition is key to our company culture,“ commented Chief Human Resources Officer Bill Voigt. “Our employee recognition program, BRAVO!, is a testament to our commitment to ensuring employees feel valued for their contributions, feel inspired to succeed, and live out the values of our organization.” Find out more in the Workhuman case study at the link. https://lnkd.in/eS3KNFae

#TBT to the EmblemHealth family of companies at the NYC Pride March. Prism, our LGBTQ+ employee resource group, marked the end of Pride month by gathering 35 employees and their friends and family for NYC Pride. The largest Pride march in the U.S., over 26,000 people gathered this year to share their pride, joy, love, and enthusiasm on the streets of Manhattan. Although the weather caused the march to shut down right before Prism was poised to march onto the 5th Avenue route, this did not dampen their spirits. Special thanks to AdvantageCare Physicians Director of Regional Operations Carl Rene, who coordinated the gathering of Prism marchers in front of the Flatiron Medical Office to pick-up their company Pride t-shirts. Also, a shoutout to co-Group Leader Avisha Sanassie, Diversity Initiatives manager, for assisting with the complicated logistics leading up to and the day of the march. #pride2024
