HIP is an insurance provider based in New York, founded in 1947 as a prepaid group practice health plan. Today, HIP offers a full line of insurance products to its members, who currently number well over one million. The HIP network includes more than 22,000 physicians throughout the New York area and surrounding states, covering more than 33,000 different locations.
HIP offerings include traditional healthcare plans, including the HMO for which it is the largest provider in the New York area; these are offered to individuals, families, and just children. HIP also offers coverage for alternative medicine and therapies including acupuncture, massage, and yoga. Services not covered under benefit plans can still be obtained at a discount rate through special programs, and include LASIK vision correction and membership at local health clubs.
Besides its strong offerings in the healthcare and insurance arenas, HIP is also a strong member of the community it serves. One of the highlights of HIP's continuing efforts to contribute includes the Pastoral Care program, which has trained more than 75 volunteers to make more than 2,000 visits to hospitalized members monthly."
