Anthem Blue Cross’ new individual and family plans for 2014 will exclude the majority of Cedars-Sinai physicians from its new narrow network of providers.

If you currently have an individual or family plan from Anthem Blue Cross that includes Cedars-Sinai, you may be able to keep that plan through a process called grandfathering.

Please call the member services phone number on the back of your insurance card to find out if you are eligible. If so, all you need to do is continue to pay your premiums and you automatically will keep your current plan.
Anthem Blue Cross will not allow grandfathering if your coverage started after March 22, 2010. If your plan began after that date, you will need to change plans before Jan. 1, 2014.
