BUTTE COUNTY, Calif. - Contract negotiations between Enloe Medical Center and Anthem Blue Cross have been extended to Jan. 22.

According to Nicole Johansson, director of Marketing & Communications for Enloe Medical Center, after failing to reach an agreement by Tuesday's deadline they extended the contract temporarily.

Anthem Blue Cross patients are anxious because an expired contract would make Enloe Medical Center an "out of network" provider.

Johansson described the discussions with Anthem Blue Cross as "very positive."
