Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Jersey is the state's oldest and largest health insurer, serving some 3.7 million members. Founded in 1932, in the depths of the Great Depression, by healthcare leaders seeking to close gaps in access to quality medical care, the company has operated continuously for more than nine decades. It is a not-for-profit, tax-paying insurer, and describes its mission as empowering members to achieve their best health, with a stated focus on the quality, affordability and experience of care.
The company offers a range of health coverage across New Jersey: comprehensive medical plans for individuals and families, dental and vision plans, Medicare options for eligible members, and Medicaid coverage for those who qualify. Its footprint spans the state, with a headquarters in Newark and offices in Wall and Hopewell.
Horizon operates in health insurance, managed care and medical, dental and vision benefits, as well as the Medicare and Medicaid programmes. Its positioning rests on scale within a single state, long institutional continuity, and a community orientation toward serving what it calls the neighbours, friends and families of New Jersey.
