Health Insurers

The WSMA provides information on insurers and government programs operating in Washington state to help facilitate communications between physicians’ practices and health insurers.

To reach out to these insurers directly, download our list of Washington state health plan medical directors. If you have questions or need additional assistance, the WSMA’s Physician Practice Helpline is a free service available to WSMA members and their practice staff (non-members may access this service for a small fee).
