If Regence BlueCross BlueShield of Utah was your health insurer between February 7, 2008, and October 16, 2020, and you filed a claim by November 5, 2021, you are part of the $2.67 billion antitrust settlement. Payments began distribution on May 11, 2026.
Because SelectHealth — an Intermountain Healthcare plan — not Regence, dominated Utah's commercial insurance market during this period, the BCBS footprint in Utah was smaller than in many other states, and per-member payouts are generally toward the lower end of the national range.
Why Utah Payouts Are on the Lower End
The settlement allocates funds based on premium volume paid to BCBS plans during the class period. Regence BlueCross BlueShield of Utah controlled a relatively small share of Utah's commercial health insurance market (roughly 6%), because SelectHealth captured the majority of Utah enrollees.
Smaller premium volume per member translates to lower individual settlement amounts compared to states where a BCBS plan held dominant market share.

Frequently Asked Questions — Utah BCBS Settlement
Is PEHP (Utah Public Employees' Benefit and Insurance Program) included in the settlement?
<strong>No.</strong> PEHP is a state-administered government benefit program and is explicitly excluded from the settlement class. Government accounts — including state employee health plans like PEHP — do not qualify for a payout, even if the underlying insurance was administered by a BCBS plan.
Is SelectHealth covered by this settlement?
<strong>No.</strong> SelectHealth is an Intermountain Healthcare plan and is not affiliated with Blue Cross Blue Shield. Only policyholders covered by a BCBS-licensed carrier — in Utah, that means Regence BlueCross BlueShield of Utah — qualify for the settlement.
How much can Utah Regence members expect to receive?
No official Utah-specific amounts exist. Shares are pro-rata by premiums paid; because Regence held a smaller share of Utah's market, many Utah claims rest on shorter or lower-premium coverage histories, which produces smaller pro-rata shares than in high-BCBS-share states. Longer enrollment and employer-group claims scale accordingly.
Did Regence BlueCross BlueShield of Utah participate in the antitrust conspiracy?
Regence BCBS of Utah, as a BCBS licensee through Cambia Health Solutions, was a named defendant in the antitrust lawsuit. The lawsuit alleged that BCBS plans violated antitrust law by agreeing not to compete in each other's territories. Regence agreed to settle as part of the broader 36-defendant settlement, without admitting wrongdoing.
When will Utah claimants receive their payments?
The first distribution of settlement payments began on May 11, 2026. Utah claimants who filed valid claims before the November 5, 2021 deadline should receive payment by check or direct deposit within weeks of the initial distribution. Claimants with expected payouts of $5 or less will not receive a payment.
Were you (or a close family member) injured in the last 2 years?
The BCBS settlement above pays fixed amounts through a claims administrator — a separate injury claim is a different case, and often worth far more. Free review, no obligation.
