Founded in 1936 and with nearly 14 million members, HCSC is the largest customer-owned health insurer in the United States and fourth largest overall, operating through its Blue Cross and Blue Shield Plans in Illinois, Montana, New Mexico, Oklahoma and Texas. We provide health coverage through our Blue Cross and Blue Shield Plans and dental, life and disability insurance through Dearborn National. We are greater than our nearly 20,000 employees, 60 local offices and state-of-the-art technology, including two Tier IV data centers — the industry`s highest reliability level — that provide the speed and data security to meet our customers` current and future business needs. We are one of the most respected companies for compliance, diversity and community outreach in the country. Our Blues Plans were pioneers in their states, as they were the first to provide coverage for a number of procedures — ranging from heart and bone marrow transplants, to cancer and leukemia treatments. We have continued our tradition of industry leadership to this day.
