Evergreen is a Maryland health plan. The company is proud of its not-for-profit, cooperative status, meaning all profits get reinvested back into the company to create better coverage and lower premiums. Individuals and families can shop off the exchange for HMO, POS, and select health plans. These plans require no referrals, have free preventive services, and include many no-cost generic prescription drugs.

The 900,000-plus national provider network includes all major hospitals in the state of Maryland. There are more than 1,200 participating pharmacies statewide that include major chains like Costco, CVS, Food Lion, Giant, Kmart, Medicine Shoppe, Patient First, Rite Aid, Safeway, Sam’s Club, Target, Walgreens, Walmart, Wegmans, and Weis.

The company has lent its services to the healthcare system that administers care to veterans in an attempt to reduce the wait time for patients, some of which have been waiting 80 days to be seen by a primary-care physician. Dr. Peter Beilenson is the president and CEO of Evergreen Health and has served the state of Maryland as Howard County health officer and Baltimore City health commissioner.

Like many insurance companies, Evergreen Health’s product offerings include the following types of plans: HMO and POS.
