Diversity, equity and inclusion

Our commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) is rooted in our purpose and dedication to serving others.

Our DEI mission

Our employees and Diversity and Inclusion (D&I) Council leaders champion diversity and inclusion awareness, initiatives, communication, outreach and events to foster employee engagement and business success and reflect the communities in which we live and serve. 

Our passion

Prime is on a path to create a more diverse, equitable and inclusive culture, both inside our company and with our customers and partners.

Our people

We’re helping our people understand how to learn from each other and turn words and ideas into understanding and action. 

Our progress 

We are on a journey, not at our destination. We’re honest about our challenges and clear about our objectives moving forward.
"There is no doubt that this is a long journey, but we are taking steps in the right direction to achieve a more diverse and inclusive workplace where our employees feel comfortable being their authentic selves.” 

Zabrina Watkins

Director, Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
“At Prime we’re committed to creating an open, inclusive culture that’s purpose-oriented and focused on providing meaningful work for our employees. To do this, we needed to weave our DEI commitments into the fabric of our culture, creating guideposts as we individually strive each day to shape, nurture and sustain our culture.”

Ashley Block

Vice President, Human Resources Business Partnership
"Prime’s DEI efforts make me feel confident that the company is working to become more transparent and equitable. I feel that I can be more authentic to myself at work knowing that diversity, equity and inclusion are valued in the company. By feeling welcome at Prime, I am encouraged to apply those same values in serving our clients and members.”

Member experience

Culture, family dynamics, belief systems and other characteristics can affect health care and outcomes. That understanding helps us deliver a better member experience. We focus on meeting members’ unique needs through multilingual member communications and contact center support, a Spanish and a large font member website and accessible digital and print materials.

Diversity, equity and inclusion milestones

Our everyday language can make a world of difference in whether a Prime employee or partner feels included or excluded, heard or ignored. By examining how we talk about our DEI efforts and the words we use, we can be honest in our challenges and clear in our objectives moving forward.

Diverse supplier registration

It’s important that we establish relationships with businesses that are owned by minorities, women, veterans, disabled people and people who identify as LGBT+, as well as other socially and economically disadvantaged businesses. Our internal business partners work with the procurement team to provide opportunities to diverse suppliers, including companies that are certified through one or more of the following:

  • National Minority Supplier Development Council (NMSDC)
  • National LGBT Chamber of Commerce (NGLCC)
  • U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA)
  • Women’s Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC)
  • U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs
