NKC Health & Blue KC Agreement

We’re pleased to share that NKC Health and Blue KC have reached an agreement that keeps NKC Health’s hospital and clinics in-network for Blue KC members, effective June 1, 2026.

What this means for Blue KC patients: 

• You can continue receiving care from NKC Health providers and facilities with in-network insurance benefits through your Blue KC health plan. 
• Patients with out-of-area Blue Cross Blue Shield plans that process through Blue KC can also continue receiving care from NKC Health providers and facilities in-network. 
• If you postponed or rescheduled appointments during this time, we encourage you to reconnect with your provider and resume your care as planned. 

We understand that uncertainty around healthcare coverage can be stressful, and we appreciate your patience and trust while worked with Blue KC on a resolution.

If you have additional questions, please contact NKC Health at (816) 691-1340.
