Since 1947, Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Mississippi has been providing quality health care for residents of Mississippi. Shortly after World War II, Mississippi was an extremely rural state, and health care was out of reach for many of its citizens. Until October of 1947, no health insurance benefits were available in the state, but a visionary group of business men and state leaders searched for a way to provide residents of the state with the medical and hospital care they needed. These leaders signed a charter to begin a Blue Cross plan in the state of Mississippi and by 1949 had enrolled 30,000 members. Today, Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Mississippi remains the largest health insurance provider in the state. Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Mississippi, in the past 50 years, has built the largest network and doctors, hospitals, and other health care providers in the state.
