Magellan of Virginia and Astyra Selected to Receive Metropolitan Business League’s Trailblazer Partnership Award

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Magellan of Virginia, a subsidiary of Magellan
Health, Inc.
(NASDAQ: MGLN), and Astyra Corporation were recently
selected to receive the Metropolitan Business League’s (MBL) Trailblazer
Partnership Award for their work together. Astyra is a local Small,
Women or Minority-owned (SWaM) business that specializes in providing
staffing, outsourcing and technology capabilities to other companies.
The Trailblazer Partnership Award recognizes a small business and its
larger partner that formed a successful teaming relationship and/or
joint venture that resulted in the award of a new contract or an ongoing
relationship. Magellan works with Astyra to help staff customer service
positions in Magellan’s member call center.

“In both the substance and logistics of our work, we recognize that
real, lasting success comes from collaboration, especially with a
locally-based organization that shares our mission-driven focus,” said
Bill Phipps, general manager of Magellan of Virginia. “We found that
collaboration in the team at Astyra, and the result benefits the nearly
one million Virginians we serve.”

“When working with larger firms, they often asked how the relationship
would work. For the past few years, we’ve been able to say ‘we would
like it to work the way our Magellan relationship has’,” said Ken Ampy,
Astyra’s co-founder. “It has been a relationship of mutual respect,
teamwork and a together-we-can attitude. It’s a teaming relationship
that embodies the spirit of the MBL.”

Magellan of Virginia was selected by the Virginia Department of Medical
Assistance Services in 2013 to serve as the commonwealth’s Behavioral
Health Services Administrator. Magellan administers behavioral health
services for members enrolled in Virginia’s Medicaid and FAMIS programs.

MBL is a non-profit, membership-based business association that creates
business connections in Central Virginia. For over 40 years, MBL has
fostered business development and expansion for small, women- and
minority-owned businesses.
