Health Plans - Highmark Delaware
Announcement
May is National High Blood Pressure Education Month. High blood pressure, also known as hypertension, increases the risk of serious health conditions such as heart disease and stroke, which are leading causes of death for Americans. One in three US adults has high blood pressure, but because there are often no symptoms, many remain unaware of it. It’s important to have your blood pressure checked regularly, and to establish healthy diet and lifestyle habits.
In recent months, Philips Respironics learned that a sound-reduction foam used in some of their Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) or Bi-level Positive Airway Pressure (BiPAP) machines could degrade into small particles or give off certain chemicals, and issued a voluntary recall of these machines in June 2021. If you have purchased a CPAP or BiPAP machine or any related supplies within the past 5 years you will receive a letter from Highmark explaining the recall and instructing you what to do next if you are affected.
The First State Basic Plan and Comprehensive PPO Plan are funded by the State of Delaware Group Health Fund through health premiums paid by you and the State. These plans are administered by Highmark Delaware.
