HIGHLIGHTED PARTNER

HIGHMARK

A CONNECTION THAT BEGAN LONG BEFORE THE FILM

Highmark’s connection to Barrington did not begin with the making of this movie.

It began with Barrington Brown and his family.

At the time of Barrington’s catastrophic accident, his family had health insurance coverage through Highmark. As Barrington arrived critically injured and his family faced unimaginable uncertainty, questions surrounding insurance and medical coverage became part of an already overwhelming experience.

For Sheila L. Brown, that moment has never been forgotten.

In a situation where every decision felt consequential and every minute mattered, knowing that her son had comprehensive health coverage gave the family one less uncertainty to carry as medical professionals fought to save his life and the long journey of treatment and rehabilitation began.

FROM CONNECTION TO COLLABORATION

Years later, as Barrington’s remarkable journey is being brought to the screen, Highmark’s connection to the story has come full circle.

Their support of Barrington represents something especially meaningful to the filmmakers: an organization connected to the family’s real experience now supporting the telling of the story that emerged from it.

It is a relationship rooted not simply in a film, but in a shared history.

ACCESS. SUPPORT. POSSIBILITY.

Barrington’s experience also raises an important conversation that reaches beyond the film—the role that access to healthcare and comprehensive coverage can play when a family suddenly finds itself facing a medical crisis.

For the Brown family, those subjects aren’t abstract.

They lived them.

And through Barrington, their experience provides an opportunity to recognize the healthcare professionals, systems, families, communities, and organizations that become part of the journey when someone’s life changes without warning.

“When my son was fighting for his life, I learned very quickly how important it was to know that he had strong healthcare coverage behind him. To now have Highmark support the telling of Barrington’s story makes this partnership incredibly meaningful to our family.”
— Sheila L. Brown.
