The CDC observes both National Women’s Health Week and National Women’s Check-Up Day in May, highlighting the importance of women’s wellbeing in the nation’s overall health landscape. This month, we encourage women to prioritize their health and explore their local healthcare resources.

Blue Cross Blue Shield of Louisiana
Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Louisiana is committed to its mission to improve the health and lives of Louisianians. May is Mental Health Month, and Blue Cross encourages you to #CheckIn at every checkup. Mental health affects overall well-being, and it’s a common concern among people struggling with serious health issues.

Ask for help if you need it – your provider can give you recommendations about what is best for your personal situation.
And now, you can get care from anywhere! Blue Cross members can have online appointments with network behavioral health providers or through the BlueCare telehealth platform: BlueCareLA.com.
