Blue Shield Of California
Blue Shield of California began in the early 1900s as a way for lumber and mine workers in the Pacific Northwest to receive medical care. Employers would pay into a fund that went to a group of physicians who would then offer medical treatment for less than what it actually cost. The first official Blue Shield Plan was unveiled in 1939. Eventually, Blue Shield of California merged with the Blue Cross Association to form the whole of the Blue Cross health insurance system as we know it today. Blue Shield of California works in much in the same way as the entire Blue Cross Association. They provide individualized health care packages by area that reach a wide range of individuals, families, and groups. Offering everything from medical and dental to prescription coverage, they are the third largest health plan in California with 3.2 million subscribers. Comprehensive coverage can be found for mature individuals as well. Blue Shield of California has Medicare eligibility packages designed for those who need much more detailed and specific health insurance plans. Many seniors replace their Original Medicare plan with a Blue Shield Medicare HMO plan or a Medicare Supplement Plan. GroupHealthBid can help you find the right plan for your needs and finances.
