At Excellus BlueCross BlueShield, we understand the pressures small businesses face in today’s economic climate. Rising costs and growing demand for health care - especially for hospital services and prescription drugs – are driving up premiums, making it harder for employers to feel confident in their health plan decisions.

As a local, nonprofit Health Plan in our region, we’re committed to helping small businesses find meaningful ways to manage costs while improving the quality of care for employees.
