Located on a scenic hillside in the central Vermont community of Berlin, Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Vermont has been a primary part of Vermont’s health care system for more than 30 years, providing thousands of Vermonters with health benefits and services. Indeed, we are an independent, local, not-for-profit Vermont company, governed and managed locally, and our sole focus is Vermont. An independent licensee of the Blue Cross Blue Shield Association, our affiliation with the national system provides our members with the security of seamless, discounted health care services when they travel across the country or abroad, but we exist solely to serve Vermonters. We think this is particularly important in this time of great change. We believe our single-state focus allows our employees to bring highly personalized service to our customers and members. It also enables us to work closely with our state’s communities and health care providers to manage costs and improve the quality of health care, and to adapt our organization to meet Vermont’s changing needs. Our generous benefits package offers health, vision, life and employer-paid dental insurance, as well as 24 days off per year and 8 paid holidays. Tuition reimbursement, new parent leave, a 401k and pension are just some of our other offerings. Our STRIVE Health and Wellness Program offers a $500 incentive after completion of wellness goals each year. The program has evolved in the past 15 years into a holistic one, offering on-site fitness rooms and classes, personal training, Lunch & Learns, nutritional counseling, meditation, Weight Watchers @ Work, working walk stations, free on-site massages, CSA shares and more. We're also present at 200+ community events each year throughout Vermont, from staffing water tables at a 5K to hosting our signature events such as Snow Days and Hike, Bike & Paddle. Check out our website, www.bluecrossvt.org, for more info on all of these initiatives!

Originally founded in 1860 as Ames Chemical Company, the silver refining plant, was sold to GAF Corporation in the late 1960s, and was subsequently purchased by the Ames Goldsmith Corporation in 1979. Ames Goldsmith’s plant has been in continuous operation as a silver refiner and fabricator for nearly 150 years. Today, with an annual silver consumption well in excess of 85 million troy ounces, we are one of the largest integrated silver fabricators in the world. We’ve been recycling silver for nearly a century and a half, making the most of silver – a vital resource for industry, medicine, photography, electronic components, and manufactured consumer products. Ames Goldsmith’s expertise in customizing its standard materials evolved into developing new materials to meet the needs of the continually advancing precious metals products markets including automotive, aerospace, medical, electrical, renewable energy, and electronics. With locations in the USA, UK, and Asia, the recent business diversification includes expansion of the North America and Asia metal powder business units (2013), the acquisition of Ceimig Limited (2015), and the integration of Colonial Metals Industries under the Ames Goldsmith Corporation umbrella in 2017. Ames Goldsmith remains a vibrant testimony to the vision of Merritt Ames, who established a thriving company by reclaiming silver. The current company carries on the tradition of dedication to innovative technology and exceptional customer service. At Ames Goldsmith, we pride ourselves on our ability to work with our customers to meet their unique application requirements. To this end, Ames Goldsmith has become very efficient at modifying our standard materials and developing new materials to meet the changing needs of an ever-evolving marketplace.
