Washington, D.C. (March 7, 2024) – ACHP’s network of nonprofit member health companies — spanning nearly 40 states and Washington, DC – are regional, community-based health plans that have been serving their neighbors for decades. Today, ACHP announces its Board of Directors voted to approve Providence Health Plan and Aspirus Health Plan as its newest members.
“At a time when value in health care is paramount, we are pleased to welcome Providence Health Plan and Aspirus Health Plan to AHCP’s growing membership,” remarked Ceci Connolly, ACHP’s president and CEO. “Providence Health Plan serves one of the largest delivery systems in the country, offering ACHP insights into thoughtful and creative health coverage programs designed with local communities in mind. Aspirus Health Plan, a Wisconsin-based organization, is well aligned with our mission to differentiate the unique payer-provider health care model.

“Aspirus Health Plan is excited to be part of the ACHP community,” said Kyle Brua, Aspirus Health Plan’s president. “We know they have a lot of resources that will help us grow the health plan and assist with our community mission to improve the health of our members.”
Providence Health Plan, part of Providence, believes everyone deserves the absolute best care, no matter the circumstances.
