Optima Health is changing our name to Sentara Health Plans to better reflect our enhanced focus on promoting the overall health and well-being of our consumers. You already know Sentara as a trusted provider with more than 300 sites of care in neighborhoods across Virginia and North Carolina, including Sentara Northern Virginia Medical Center 1.
While the health plans have been a part of Sentara for over 35 years, under this new name—Sentara Health Plans— we will be able to further integrate them under a single, unified brand2. And, by providing healthcare that is simple, personal, and more affordable, we are practicing the future of healthcare today.
