History
The company we today know as WellPoint was formed on November 30th, 2004, when WellPoint Health Networks, Inc. merged with Anthem, Inc. WellPoint Health Networks was originally formed in 1986.
In 1992, WellPoint Health Networks became the chief operator of Blue Cross of California's managed care business, shortly before Blue Cross of California completed the conversion of all of their business to a legal for-profit status. This resulted in a restructuring which left WellPoint Health Networks Inc. as the parent organization of Blue Cross of California.
Meanwhile, two Indianapolis-based corporations who were also parent organizations of Blue Cross merged to become Anthem, Inc. Anthem went on to become part of WellPoint.
In 2005, WellPoint acquired Lumenos as a wholly-owned subsidiary. Lumenos' business is to offer health-directed savings account and health-reimbursement account plans.
