Faith Community Health System (FCHS) is pleased to announce that Faith Community Hospital
has reached a new agreement with Blue Cross Blue Shield of Texas (BCBSTX) to return the
hospital to in-network status for BCBSTX members.
Frank Beaman, CEO of FCHS, stated, “We are proud to welcome Blue Cross Blue Shield of Texas
patients back to Faith Community Hospital as in-network participants. Our mission has always
been to serve our communities with accessible, high-quality healthcare close to home. This
agreement allows more families to receive the care they need right here in their own community.”
While the Faith Community Rural Health Clinics in Jacksboro, Graham, Bowie, and Alvord have
remained in-network, this new agreement marks a significant step forward for Faith Community
Hospital in strengthening access to local healthcare for patients and families across Jack County
and the surrounding region.
David Spiller, General Counsel to FCHS, added, “This agreement represents a positive and
collaborative step forward for both organizations and, most importantly, for the patients we serve.
I want to thank Blue Cross Blue Shield of Texas’ leadership and contract team for their partnership
and commitment to making this agreement a reality. Restoring in-network access at Faith
Community Hospital enhances continuity of care, reduces financial uncertainty for patients, and
reinforces the importance of strong partnerships in sustaining rural healthcare delivery.”
Effective within ninety days, patients covered by BCBSTX will now have in-network access to
hospital-based services at Faith Community Hospital – improving affordability, continuity of care,
and peace of mind for those seeking treatment close to home.
“This agreement represents a financially responsible step forward for Faith Community Hospital
while continuing to prioritize patient access to local care. It strengthens the hospital’s long-term
sustainability and allows us to keep investing in the services and infrastructure our communities
depend on,” said Jeff Casbeer, Chief Operating Officer for FCHS.
This agreement reflects a shared commitment between FCHS and BCBSTX to ensure rural Texans
maintain access to high-quality, community-based healthcare.
FCHS provides comprehensive healthcare services to residents of Jack County and surrounding
communities through Faith Community Hospital and its network of Rural Health Clinics located
in Jacksboro, Graham, Bowie, and Alvord.
