MultiCare Health System

MultiCare Health System, a Washington-based nonprofit health provider, is preparing to launch a new health insurance plan. The move follows a wider trend of hospital systems creating their own insurance products to keep patients within their networks and manage care costs directly. Industry coverage highlights it as another example of provider-led health plans expanding in the US market.

MultiCare, a Washington-based health system, has announced the launch of its own health plan, according to an announcement from its newsroom. The move would let the hospital network offer insurance coverage directly alongside its medical services. Few further details were available in the announcement, and no wider reaction has yet been reported.
