Desert Oasis Healthcare Reaches Agreement with Anthem Blue Cross to Maintain Member Coverage


August 01, 2025 – (Palm Springs, CA) 

Desert Oasis Healthcare (DOHC) is proud to announce the successful renewal of its contract with Anthem Blue Cross, securing continued access to healthcare services for thousands of DOHC members.

This renewed agreement ensures uninterrupted coverage for approximately 8,500 DOHC Commercial HMO members and preserves healthcare access for more than 80,000 additional members within the Heritage Provider Network (HPN). Without this agreement, many members would have faced a disruption in coverage and care.

"Our top priority has always been our patients. This renewed agreement with Anthem Blue Cross ensures uninterrupted care and peace of mind for the thousands of families who count on us every day,” said Dr. Marc Hoffing, Medical Director at DOHC. 

The renewed partnership is a testament to the strong working relationship between DOHC and Anthem Blue Cross and reflects both organizations’ shared commitment to the health and well-being of the Coachella Valley and Morongo Basin communities.
