Allies^SM: A new kind of health experience.

Allies is designed to make choosing and receiving world-class care easier, more convenient, less costly, and less confusing. Available in 65 communities from MetroWest to the neighborhoods of Boston.
 

Allies plan innovations and features:

• Employers and members save on premiums compared to our full network plans.
• ​Members choose a primary care provider (PCP) affiliated with Newton-Wellesley Hospital, the highest-ranking community hospital in Massachusetts by U.S. News and World Report, 2020-2021.
• They have easy access to Newton-Wellesley’s PCPs and specialists—with special areas of expertise including cardiology, oncology, maternity services and women’s health, orthopedics, sports medicine, and more.
• Members may be referred to Mass General Brigham’s renowned academic medical centers and specialty hospitals.
• Allies Health Navigators help deliver a seamless health experience. They serve as a bridge between members and the benefits, services, providers, resources, and care they might need.
• Members can get shortened wait times (within three business days from the primary care referral) for appointments with select specialists, including cardiology, orthopedics, dermatology, and gastroenterology.
• There’s $0 cost sharing for virtual visits with primary care, specialists, behavioral health, and 24/7 urgent care.
• Members can choose to get most of their care virtually by selecting the Virtual Health primary care practice at Newton-Wellesley. Patients of this practice can see a provider virtually within one business day upon request, schedule visits online, and pay $0 out of pocket for that visit. Of course, some in-person office visits may be necessary.
