Medica

We don't have to tell you twice--food prices are high right now at the grocery store 🛒 and elsewhere. A lot of families are having to choose between rent, keeping the 💡 on and food on the table--it shouldn't be this way. What does a health insurance company have to do with food security?

🔉 🔊 We are proud to share that we have landed on Forbes' annual ranking of the "Best Employers by State." Medica is among the top 10 employers with headquarters in Minnesota. Forbes surveyed more than 160,000 employees at companies with more than 500 people. Respondents evaluated their current employers, employers they'd worked with in the past two years and organizations they knew through their industry. We know none of this would be possible without our amazing employees who work tirelessly for their teams, our members and the communities we serve. Click on the link ⬇ to read more.

School 🏫 is starting back up for many districts in the area and we know how critical supporting mental health is for our youth. This week our team traveled to Valley City, North Dakota to support a significant financial contribution towards helping students access mental health services right from their school with licensed professionals in a private setting instead of missing classes to travel off-campus for appointments during the week. This program could be a game-changer for communities across North Dakota and other rural areas that are trying to help reduce the youth mental health crisis. Thank you to our partner in this initiative Essentia Health and the Valley City Public School District--none of this would have happened without their support! #YouthMentalHealthCrisis #MedicaInNorthDakota #MentalHealthAccess #HealthEquity

Mission + Purpose: these are the reasons we are here at Medica!

We can't wait to embark on this journey with our members, colleagues, and community partners.

🎉 🎊 We’re thrilled to announce that Medica and our Inclusion, Diversity, Equity & Accessibility (IDEA) Team has been honored with a 2024 Diversity Impact Award, presented by the Global ERG Network (GEN). This prestigious recognition, for Top 10 Enterprise-Wide Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) & Diversity Councils, highlights our ongoing commitment to fostering an inclusive and diverse workplace culture. “I’m so proud of this award,” said Rose Judkins, Medica’s Inclusion Director. “Our ERGs provide safe spaces for employees to be who they are and celebrate their uniqueness. And they actively create an inclusive environment, which means all individuals have a voice in the conversation, are valued, and feel a place of authentic belonging.” Bravo!!
