General Info

A significant part of Encore Health Networks advantage is that we are locally owned and managed.2016 represents the 30th year the Encore PPO has served as a provider network to the health benefit plans of hundreds of thousands of Hoosiers. From the beginning, then known as VHA Tri-State to today, The HealthCare Group (THCG) has prided itself in delivering value to its payer and provider business partners, and ultimately the members collectively served. These first 30 years have transpired in a rapidly changing market which THCG has addressed with an evolving product mix from the Encore Health Network PPO, to the high-value Encircle Network, Encore Work Comp PPO, and a variety of unique individual payer and provider collaborations. It’s through the markets familiarity during our 30-year history that we are often referred to as Encore, whereas The HealthCare Group has been the linchpin entity for all the THCG products.
