BCBSRI President & CEO Martha L. Wofford explains the ways we at BCBSRI support Rhode Islanders—and the partnerships that make our work possible.
Living our mission at work and in the community
As a local, nonprofit health insurer, Blue Cross & Blue Shield of Rhode Island (BCBSRI) is dedicated to improving health and well-being by leading access to high-quality, affordable, and equitable care for all Rhode Islanders.
Every day, we live and work to serve our mission and our members. That’s why we push beyond the healthcare system to address the underlying social factors that affect health. That’s why we focus so strongly on developing meaningful, effective partnerships with community groups that solve problems person by person. That’s why each one of us is committed to serving our neighbors—and helping them live their healthiest lives.

The Civic 50 – 2025 honoree
Living our mission has earned us a spot as one of America’s 50 most community-minded companies by Points of Light, the world’s largest organization dedicated to volunteer service.
This recognition is especially meaningful to us because we are deeply rooted in Rhode Island, and serving our communities is at the core of everything we do.
