Members Gain Access to a High-Performing Network and Lower Premium Options
TROY, Mich. – Health Alliance Plan (HAP), a Michigan-based nonprofit health plan, in partnership with Henry Ford Health, today announced the launch of Henry Ford Health Select — a new health plan designed to deliver coordinated care and help Michigan businesses manage rising health care costs.
This new plan offers rich benefits and covers a wide service area. It is available to small and large employer groups in seven Michigan counties: Wayne, Oakland, Macomb, Lapeer, Genesee, Jackson and Washtenaw.
“Henry Ford Health Select represents the next step in delivering on our promise of integrated, affordable, high-quality health care,” said Margaret Anderson, president of HAP. “By aligning our plan offerings with Henry Ford Health’s renowned care network, we’re providing Michigan businesses and families with a more streamlined and cost-effective option.”
In addition to employer coverage, Henry Ford Select is also available to individuals and families on the Health Insurance Marketplace through HAP CareSource.
This employer group plan complements the success of the Henry Ford Health Medicare Advantage plan, powered by HAP, that was announced in 2024. Since launching in January, more than 4,000 people have joined the plan. The pilot has demonstrated that this combined approach between care and coverage can improve health outcomes. HAP’s Henry Ford Medicare Advantage members achieve 6% improved performance across a variety of Medicare quality measures when compared to its other Medicare products.
“Bringing together the provider and payer sides of health care allows us to break down barriers, improve care coordination, and focus on what matters most — healthier people and communities. This plan is more than a product; it’s a reflection of our commitment to value-based care that prioritizes quality, affordability and equity,” said Robin Damschroder, president, Value-Based Enterprise, and chief financial officer at Henry Ford Health.
Henry Ford Health Select provides access to a high-value care network and includes:
- Up to 15% savings on premium costs
- Access to Henry Ford Health and more than 9,400 affiliated providers
- More than 550 care sites and 13 Henry Ford Health acute care hospitals
- Comprehensive, coordinated coverage focused on value and better health outcomes
- Required primary care provider (PCP) assignment and referrals for specialty care to help manage costs and streamline care
- Ancillary services — including lab, imaging, durable medical equipment, therapy, urgent care and behavioral health — through HAP’s HMO network
Henry Ford Health Select is structured as a Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) and an Exclusive Provider Arrangement (EPA), giving members access to Henry Ford Health’s High-Performing Network. This network includes doctors, hospitals and specialists chosen for delivering high-quality care at lower costs.
Quoting for employer groups begins fall of 2025, with coverage starting Jan. 1, 2026.
