“
Highmark Blue Cross Blue Shield of Western New York is committed to providing whole-person health care. This can only be achieved when mental health care is as free from stigma as other types of medical care. Mental health is an integral part of overall health and wellness, and we have long supported strong mental health across our employee initiatives, member services, and community partnerships. We envision a community where everyone is encouraged and empowered to achieve their best possible health and where seeking and receiving needed mental health services is seen as strength. We are proud to partner with the Erie County Anti-Stigma Coalition towards the shared and vital goal of eliminating stigma around mental illness.
