In April, Independence Blue Cross (IBC) marked the company's fifth-year presenting sponsorship of Step Out: Walk to Stop Diabetes, the American Diabetes Association's community fundraising event, by hosting a corporate kick off breakfast for the region's business leaders.
Independence Blue Cross (IBC) announced the creation of the Independence Blue Cross Foundation, which is committed to transforming health care through innovation in the Philadelphia region. With an initial commitment of $10 million to fund the work of the foundation, the new nonprofit will focus on the region's health care challenges.
The foundation targets three areas: caring for our community's most vulnerable, leading innovative approaches to health care, and developing the health care workforce of the future with an intense focus on nursing education.
