Accessibility statement

At Blue Advantage Administrators of Arkansas, our unwavering dedication to accessibility motivates us to continually enhance the user experience on our websites. We are passionately committed to achieving the highest standards of accessibility, ensuring that all users can access our healthcare products and services. This commitment is central to our values, guiding us to align with and aim to exceed the standards set by the Web Accessibility Content Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 Level AA compliance.

Our commitment

Our commitment to accessibility extends beyond routine testing using assistive technologies. We meticulously test our sites and applications across various web browsers, including Firefox, Chrome, and Edge, ensuring a consistent and optimal experience for users regardless of their browser preference. Additionally, we conduct thorough assessments across different operating systems, such as MacOS and Windows, to guarantee compatibility and accessibility across diverse user environments.

In our pursuit of inclusivity, we regularly test our platforms with leading assistive technologies, including NVDA, JAWS, and ZoomText. This multi-faceted approach ensures that users relying on screen readers, magnifiers, and other assistive tools can navigate our digital spaces seamlessly. Our accessibility considerations, encompassing both assistive technologies and cross-browser/platform assessments, are seamlessly integrated into every phase of the website development process, from design to development and content creation.

While we strive for consistent accessibility, it's important to note that our efforts are continuous. There may be periods when certain areas of our websites are less accessible than others. We appreciate your understanding as we work towards optimizing accessibility across all aspects of our online presence.
