What Grady Not Taking Blue Cross Blue Shield Means For Patients

Grady Hospital is no longer accepting insurance from Blue Cross Blue Shield of Georgia, after the two sides couldn’t agree on a new contract last week. But what that means for patients depends on the treatment. 

Grady is one of only two level-one trauma units in Atlanta. It’s one of two burn units in the state. And it recently opened a special unit for stroke care. Blue Cross Blue Shield will still cover emergencies in those centers.
