Certification Regarding Eligibility
To Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance

In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, as
amended ("Act"), 19 U.S.C. § 2273, the Department of Labor
herein presents the results of an investigation regarding
certification of eligibility to apply for worker adjustment
assistance.
The group eligibility requirements for workers of a firm
under Section 222(a) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a), are
satisfied if the following criteria are met:
I. The first criterion (set forth in Section 222(a)(1) of the
Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a)(1)) requires that a significant
number or proportion of the workers in the workers' firm
must have become totally or partially separated or be
threatened with total or partial separation.

II. The second criterion (set forth in Section 222(a)(2) of the
Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a)(2)) may be satisfied if either:

(i)(I) there has been a shift by the workers' firm to a
foreign country in the production of articles or
supply of services like or directly competitive with
those produced/supplied by the workers' firm; OR
(i)(II) there has been an acquisition from a foreign
country by the workers' firm of articles/services that
are like or directly competitive with those
produced/supplied by the workers' firm.

III. The third criterion requires that the shift/acquisition
must have contributed importantly to the workers'
separation or threat of separation. See Section
222(a)(2)(B)(ii) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. §
2272(a)(2)(B)(ii).

The investigation was initiated in response to a petition
filed on April 16, 2010 on behalf of workers of Anthem
Insurance Companies, Inc., a Wellpoint, Inc. subsidiary,
Central States Provider Host Services Division, including on-
site leased workers from Jacobsen Group, Cape Girardeau,
Missouri (TA-W-73,949), Anthem Insurance Companies, Inc., a
Wellpoint, Inc. subsidiary, Central States Provider Host
Services Division, including on-site leased workers from
Jacobsen Group and Perot Systems Corporation, Worthington,
Ohio (TA-W-73,949A), Anthem Insurance Companies, Inc., a
Wellpoint, Inc. subsidiary, Central States Provider Host
Services Division, Eau Claire, Wisconsin (TA-W-73,949B),
Anthem Insurance Companies, Inc., a Wellpoint, Inc.
subsidiary, BlueCard Home Claims Operations Division, Cape
Girardeau, Missouri (TA-W-73,949C), Anthem Insurance
Companies, Inc., a Wellpoint, Inc. subsidiary, Group Claims
Operations Division, Cape Girardeau, Missouri (TA-W-73,949D),
Anthem Insurance Companies, Inc., a Wellpoint, Inc.
subsidiary, Group Claims Operations Division, Springfield,
Missouri (TA-W-73,949E), Anthem Insurance Companies, Inc., a
Wellpoint, Inc. subsidiary, Group Claims Operations Division,
Platteville, Wisconsin (TA-W-73,949F), Anthem Insurance
Companies, Inc., a Wellpoint, Inc. subsidiary, Central Host
Claims Division, including on-site leased workers from
Jacobsen Group and Perot Systems Corporation, Cape Girardeau,
Missouri (TA-W-73,949G), and Anthem Insurance Companies, Inc.,
a Wellpoint, Inc. subsidiary, Enrollment and Billing Division,
Cape Girardeau, Missouri (TA-W-73,949H), (Anthem). The workers
are engaged in activities related to the supply of insurance
customer services.
The investigation revealed that workers of Anthem who are
engaged in activities related to the supply of insurance
customer services meet the criteria for certification.
Criterion I has been met because a significant number or
proportion of the workers have been totally or partially
separated or threatened with separation.
Criterion II has been satisfied because the workers' firm
has acquired from a foreign country services like or directly
competitive with the insurance customer services supplied by
the workers.
Criterion III has been met because the acquisition of
insurance customer services from the Philippines by Anthem
contributed importantly to worker group separations at the
subject firm.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Anthem Insurance
Companies, Inc., a Wellpoint, Inc. subsidiary, Central States
Provider Host Services Division, including on-site leased
workers from Jacobsen Group, Cape Girardeau, Missouri (TA-W-
