What is with all the ads about the Highmark BC/BS and UPMC "fall out" [View all]

In the Pittsburgh are/Western PA UPMC is a chain of various hospitals. In the town we live in the hospital is considered a UPMC hospital. My wife and I have been seeing ads saying Highmark is trying to undermined UPMC and other ads saying UPMC is just greedy money hungry.

What exactly is happening AND I do have BC/BS will this effect my care?

The ads give so little detail and confusing ones that I'm not sure what to think or begin to understand.

Does anyone know if anything like this is happening in other states?
