Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield in Ohio’s HMO plans were rated 4.5 out of 5 in the National Committee for Quality Assurance’s (NCQA) Health Plan Ratings for 2026, making them the top-rated commercial health plans in the state. This rating recognizes Anthem as a leader in supporting its members with access to high-quality healthcare services.
“Better health outcomes start with helping people get the right care and support throughout their health journey,” said Jane Peterson, president of Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield in Ohio. “Whether that means preventive care, managing a chronic condition, or accessing treatment, we’re focused on improving how our members experience healthcare at every step and helping them live healthier lives.”
Anthem’s plans were rated 4.5 out of 5 overall in NCQA’s commercial Health Plan Ratings for 2026 and scored 5 out of 5 stars on specific measures such as: preventive care including children receiving two or more well-child visits between 15 and 30 months; members with diabetes maintaining blood pressure below 140/90 and a glycemic status below 8 percent; and members age 13 and older with a new episode of substance use disorder engaging in treatment within 34 days, among other measures.

The report rates more than 1,000 commercial, Medicare, and Medicaid health insurance plans on a 5-point scale for patient experience, prevention, and treatment. NCQA awards 4.5–5 stars to health plans that are the highest-rated in the nation, exemplifying high-quality care, excellent clinical results, strong member satisfaction, and improved health outcomes. The insights gained from the NCQA ratings are vital in enhancing interventions, delivering impactful programs, and shaping future strategies, as well as helping consumers, employers, and others make more informed healthcare choices about the quality and effectiveness of health plans.
