- Elevance Health Inc. (NYSE: ELV) operates as a leading health benefits company in the United States, providing a comprehensive portfolio of medical, dental, vision, pharmaceutical, behavioral health, long-term care, disability, and life insurance plans through affiliated brands including Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield in 14 states, Wellpoint Medicaid plans, Carelon services, Amerigroup, and others; it also delivers advanced healthcare solutions such as pharmacy benefit management via CarelonRx, clinical care coordination, digital health tools, primary care enablement, and whole-person care addressing social drivers of health. Headquartered in Indianapolis, Indiana, the company traces its origins to 1946 through predecessor entities like Anthem and WellPoint, which merged in 2004, and rebranded from Anthem Inc. to Elevance Health in June 2022 to reflect its focus on elevating health outcomes. Elevance Health serves approximately 47 million medical members nationwide, with operations spanning commercial employer-sponsored plans, individual coverage, Medicare Advantage, and Medicaid programs across multiple states including California, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Kentucky, Missouri, New York, Ohio, Texas, and Puerto Rico via subsidiaries like MMM; it targets employers, individuals, families, government programs, and complex-needs populations through segments encompassing Health Benefits, CarelonRx, Carelon Services, and other corporate activities.
The company has pursued aggressive expansion in specialty care and home-based services, including the 2024 acquisition of Paragon Healthcare for infusion therapies and CareBridge for home health management; it acquired Kroger Specialty Pharmacy in 2024 to bolster CarelonRx's infusion and mail-order capabilities, alongside earlier purchases of BioPlus Specialty Pharmacy and opening new dispensing centers. In April 2024, Elevance Health formed a strategic partnership with Clayton, Dubilier & Rice, integrating Carelon Health assets with apree health and Millennium Physician Group to innovate primary care delivery across U.S. regions. Recent initiatives encompass expanding behavioral health interventions and external partnerships under Carelon to manage medical costs, deepening AI integrations via a partnership with OpenAI announced in Q3 2025, scaling pharmacy home delivery and specialty services, enhancing Star ratings through member engagement, and broadening access to doula care and histotripsy treatments for liver tumors for over 45 million members; the company also rebranded Amerigroup to Wellpoint in 2024 and continues investing in digital automation and value-based care principles to drive long-term growth amid Medicaid dynamics.
