Fox Hospital in Oneonta, Bassett Medical Center in Cooperstown, CVPH Medical Center in Plattsburgh, Community Memorial Hospital in Hamilton, Faxton St. Luke’s Healthcare of Utica, Oneida Healthcare Center, Rome Memorial Hospital, and St. Elizabeth Medical Center in Utica.

Excellus has awarded more than $145 million since starting its Hospital Performance Incentive Program in 2004.
