HealthPartners to broaden health plan options in Iowa

Focusing on high-quality products and network solutions for employer groups

BLOOMINGTON, Minn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--HealthPartners today announced that it plans to broaden its health plan options in Iowa, focusing on an array of high-quality products and network solutions for employers. The new approach comes almost 10 years after HealthPartners began supporting integrated care and plan offerings serving Iowans with award-winning customer service.

“We’re grateful that Iowans have trusted us with their health care coverage, and we’re proud of how we’ve served Iowans,” said Moe Suleiman, senior vice president of HealthPartners commercial health plan business. “Now, we’re evolving with the market. We’ll bring a fresh approach under a familiar name – a name that is well known in the Midwest for high-quality and service to our customers.”

HealthPartners, with offices in West Des Moines, will expand its commercial coverage offerings in 2025. HealthPartners plans to offer a variety of large and small group options, including a level funded plan, which allows small employers more predictable costs and helps reduce the impact of catastrophic claims. Its level funded option also helps potentially recoup costs if an employer’s workforce remains healthy.

Employers who have questions can contact HealthPartners at 800-298-4235.
