Priority Health named to Newsweek’s America’s Best Customer Service 2024 list

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Priority Health, a nationally recognized nonprofit health plan serving more than 1.3 million members, is being recognized for its best-in-class customer service.

Priority Health has been named to Newsweek’s America’s Best Customer Service 2024 list in the health insurance category.
