Tryon Medical Partners - Charlotte Metro Area

Roughly 90 physicians formerly with Mecklenburg Medical Group created a new practice called Tryon Medical Partners after leaving Charlotte-based Atrium Health.  In the Charlotte-Metro area, there are two BCBSNC® networks for the individual market: Blue Local with Atrium Health and Blue Value which is primarily the Novant network plus additional providers. 

Until recently, it was unknown how this exit would impact the many current Blue Local members whose doctors left Mecklenburg Medical Group.  With open enrollment coming up, I’ve received a lot of calls about what your options will be for 2019.

I am relieved to report that BCBSNC® recently advised its agent network that Tryon Medical Partners will participate in both networks.  I was able to confirm it on Tryon Medical Partners website.  https://tryonmed.com/insurance/

When deciding on networks for 2019, if your doctor is now with Tryon Medical Partners, what you need to consider is which hospital and urgent care network you prefer if needed.  If you want to visit Atrium, you will need to stay with the Blue Local network.  If you are interested in Novant and other providers, then you will have to choose Blue Value.  Feel free to reach out to me with questions.
