Blue Cross - National Blue Card Plan 80 (NY) (2008)
The Blue Card Program by Blue Cross provides access to the National Blue Cross/Blue Shield Network. The dual option feature of this plan allows you to go to your own doctor or hospital and be eligible to receive the full benefits of the comprehensive coverage.
If the network providers are used, no claim forms need to be completed and payment is made directly to the provider. This plan provides $5,000,000 lifetime maximum.
This extensive network of quality providers considerably reduces carrier transition issues, as most employees will find their physician is a participant of the network.
You may search for providers on the Flex Plan website (insurance options). National Blue Card Plan 80 is the default option.
