Almost a decade of riding together—and still going strong. What started with the annual DC Bike Ride has grown into a movement that promotes health, celebrates the city and creates lasting impact. From gifting bikes to local students to bringing thousands together for an unforgettable ride through the heart of D.C., this collaboration builds community in motion. We’re proud to keep showing up—and riding forward together. Join CareFirst #DifferenceMakers, DC Bike Ride and thousands of riders next weekend for this exciting event: www.dcbikeride.com #CareFirstCares #DCBikeRide

With the new school year beginning, we're excited to continue to support programs that help students explore how their environment, choices and access to resources shape their health. At Junior Achievement of Greater Washington's Finance Park In Prince George's County, the CareFirst storefront gives students the chance to explore how income, housing, food access and healthcare choices impact their well-being. More than 9,000 middle schoolers are expected to take part this school year. In D.C., more than 200 second graders received bikes and safety gear through the Graduation on Wheels event earlier this summer, along with entry to DC Bike Ride on September 6. The ride offers a great way for students to put movement into action and enjoy the city-wide celebration with their families. These efforts focus on early support that sets youth up for long-term wellness—giving them the chance to move, learn and feel connected in the places they live and grow.

We were proud to team up with the Baltimore Orioles for Literacy night—bringing fans and community partners together to support education and expand opportunities for Baltimore students. Baseball Hall of Famer, Cal Ripken Jr., joined the celebration, spending time with students and reading together, as fans throughout the stadium donated books for Baltimore City schools. The books collected at the game were distributed across five schools, providing students with new resources for their classrooms and libraries. Keeping the play alive, we made a donation to Harlem Park Elementary/Middle School to purchase new smart tablets—giving students access to essential digital tools that strengthen learning and encourage healthier futures. With our #DifferenceMakers, the Orioles, Cal Ripken Jr., fans, families and community partners in the lineup, we're creating a lasting, meaningful impact for Baltimore students. #CareFirstCares

Another proud moment in our ongoing partnership with the Washington Spirit!

We’re honored to be ranked No. 1 in brand, customer and total experience in Forrester’s 2025 Indexes. This recognition reflects how people experience CareFirst—and the trust that’s built through clarity, compassion and a focus on what matters. It’s a result of delivering care that’s accessible, affordable and shaped around people, not process. We know when care feels out of reach, people delay or avoid it. That’s why we’re investing in experiences that help individuals and families confidently get the support they need—when they need it. It’s not just our name. It’s our promise.
