Wright & Filippis Expands
Program with UAW-Ford
Wright & Filippis has just expanded its current agreement with Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan to provided selected healthcare services for all UAW-Ford hourly employees. Under the new contract, Wright & Filippis, utilizing its national network, will serve as that group's exclusive provider for prosthetics, orthotics, and home medical equipment.

The new UAW-Ford program, which began January 1, 2002, impacts the healthcare services offered to approximately 95,000 Medicare-eligible retiree's, and surviving spouses and dependents. It is estimated that nearly forty percent of those beneficiaries live in Michigan.
"This arrangement gives UAW-Ford employees greater access to the best home healthcare services available," said AJ Filippis, President of Wright & Filippis. "We're proud and fortunate to have the opportunity to work closely with Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan to provide these services - it's an arrangement that has proven to be very successful."
Wright & Filippis has also reached an agreement to serve as the direct provider of prosthetics, orthotics and home medical equipment for Aetna U.S. Healthcare in Michigan. Wright & Filippis has more than 40 preferred provider agreements, streamlining healthcare services for the employees of companies both locally and nationally.
