Westlake Village, CA (PRWEB) March 31, 2017 -- Cynvenio Biosystems, a leader in the development of more affordable and clinically actionable diagnostic tests for cancer patients, today announced the further expansion of its payor network with the signing of a new agreement with Blue Cross Blue Shield of Illinois (BCBS IL) allowing its members access to Cynvenio's broad menu of liquid biopsy testing services for cancer.
This latest BCBS IL agreement adds 8.1 million covered lives to Cynvenio’s previous in-network payor contracts with America’s Choice Provider Network (ACPN - an independent, multi-specialty National Provider Network covering 24 million lives in the US and 750,000 international lives); Multiplan (68 million lives); and Medicare (55 million lives).
