Anthem Health Plans of Maine plans to hire hundreds of new employees, including entry-level and managerial positions, this summer.
The company, a division of Wellpoint Inc., announced in a press release that it is seeking Maine-based workers for the positions.
Chris Hall, executive director of the Portland Regional Chamber, told the Portland Press Herald that the company plans to hire 200 people initially. The company advertised that it plans to hire 300 in its South Portland office.
Hall told the paper the jobs are connected to the enactment of health care reforms, including the opening of new online health care marketplaces on Jan. 1, 2014. The reforms are expected to trigger more people purchasing health insurance.
