Share Your Voice: Contact the State Health Plan Board of Trustees
Last week, WakeMed learned that effective January 1, 2027, our health system will be considered a non-preferred provider for employees and retirees covered by the State Health Plan (SHP). This means the SHP will potentially charge them substantially more for most WakeMed services. Many patients, employees and members of the community have asked how they can support WakeMed in encouraging the SHP to reconsider this decision. We encourage all members of the communities WakeMed serves to share their thoughts and support with the SHP Board of Trustees and have made a template letter of support available on our website.
