Centers of Excellence
Blue Distinction® Specialty Care focuses on hospitals and other healthcare facilities that excel in delivering safe, effective treatment for specialty procedures, such as knee and hip replacements, cardiac care, bariatric (weight loss) surgery and transplants.
Hospitals and doctors are nationally recognized through Blue Distinction Centers, with two designations available across eleven areas of specialty care.
Blue Distinction Centers (BDCs) demonstrate quality care, treatment expertise and better overall patient results. A BDC+ designation also demonstrates more affordable care.
Only those providers that first meet nationally established, objective quality measures for Blue Distinction Centers will be considered for designation as a BDC+.

Blue Distinction Centers (BDC) met overall quality measures for patient safety and outcomes, developed with input from the medical community. A local Blue Plan may require additional criteria for providers located in its own service area. For details, contact your local Blue Plan. Blue Distinction Centers+ (BDC+) also met cost measures that address consumers’ need for affordable health care. Each provider’s cost of care is evaluated using data from its local Blue Plan. Providers in CA, ID, NY, PA and WA may lie in two local Blue Plans’ areas, resulting in two evaluations for cost of care, and their own local Blue Plans decide whether one or both cost of care evaluation(s) must meet BDC+ national criteria. National criteria for BDC and BDC+ are displayed on www.bcbs.com. Individual outcomes may vary. For details on a provider’s in-network status or your own policy’s coverage, contact your local Blue Plan and ask your provider before making an appointment. Neither Blue Cross and Blue Shield Association nor any Blue Plans are responsible for non-covered charges or other losses or damages resulting from Blue Distinction or other provider finder information or care received from Blue Distinction or other providers.
