Diversity and Inclusion
Within BCBSAZ and HCA, it is essential that we create a culture of inclusion and opportunity as well as actively guard against bias of any kind. Discrimination and racism are real. Our aim is to empower every member of our team to engage in our mission of improving health for Arizonans. We believe that the power and perspective of diversity and inclusion is in fact, essential to our success in serving clients, achieving our mission and creating a healthy environment for all.
Advanced Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion significantly through efforts with our BCBSAZ DEI Council and Affinity Groups, leading to a steady increase in employee ratings of our DEI performance. BCBSAZ was externally recognized for having the #1 diversity program in the state by the Arizona Capitol Times, and our Chief Administration Officer and General Counsel, Deanna Salazar, was named a national Top Diversity Leader of 2022 by Modern Healthcare.

We love where we live, and are committed to making our community stronger. We proudly support hundreds of charities through donations, volunteering, and even paid employee volunteer opportunities.
