Asuris Northwest Health

As of 2023, Asuris has served Eastern Washington for 90 years. Through it all, we’ve remained devoted to our mission of keeping the communities we love healthy and delivering on our commitment to making health care more affordable and more effective for the families and employers we serve.

We are pleased to welcome Stacy M. Crim, MHA as the next leader of Asuris Northwest Health. Crim will add the Eastern Washington health plan business to her current portfolio as vice president of emerging markets and small business in the Washington market for Cambia Health Solutions. Crim takes over leadership of Asuris from Brady Cass, who decided to leave the company to take time for himself and his family.

If you need care quickly but can’t get an appointment with your personal doctor, consider a phone or video appointment. Many of our plans, including all our Medicare Advantage plans, cover Doctor On Demand, which virtually connects you to doctors and/or therapists 24/7. Learn more and register for Doctor on Demand at https://lnkd.in/gsbdED_E or sign in to your Asuris account to see all the telehealth options available to you.

We're pleased to share that MultiCare has rescinded its termination and will remain in our network, meaning Asuris members will be able to access MultiCare facilities and providers without any disruption to their care.

Asuris Northwest Health has served Eastern Washington for more than 90 years, and we are taking a stand against unprecedented demands from MultiCare to raise the total cost of health care. We continue to actively work to reach an agreement with MultiCare’s leadership on provider reimbursement rates that addresses the need to help control health care costs to continue serving the local communities with high-quality, affordable health care. 

Our corporate foundation hosted its annual “Celebration of Giving,” a four-day employee giving campaign that offered virtual volunteering opportunities. One activity was a project in support of Maddie's Place in Spokane, where more than 60 employees gathered to learn about the work of Maddie’s Place and write supportive letters to the people they serve.✍️📬💚

For over a decade, we've been a proud supporter of Tom's Turkey Drive, hosted KREM 2 Media Group and Second Harvest Inland Northwest to get Thanksgiving meals, sides and all, to local families in need. 🦃

At Asuris, our employees rally around a culture of giving – and we invite you this Giving Tuesday to join us by finding a cause that matters to you. 💚 This is a critical time for non-profits: Every hour volunteered or dollar donated to organizations helps equip them to serve people in need of their services across our communities. Not sure where to start? Take a peek at Maddie's Place or The Shades of Motherhood Network, recent grantees of our corporate foundation!
