Blue Cross Blue Shield of Minnesota

Why Blue Cross? 7 reasons we’re the leading plan in Minnesota

1. You’re covered for more kinds of care, in more places

Your health care

  • Our health plans for individuals include coverage for things like mental health services and prenatal care (without a deductible).
  • Many of our individual plans include coverage for use of retail clinics, such as MinuteClinic and Target Clinic, preventive care (upfront coverage) and generic drugs.

Your providers

Our standard network includes 97% of Minnesota hospitals, clinics and doctors. Our expanded network includes even more for a small extra cost. And you’re covered wherever you live, work and travel with BlueCard Worldwide®.

2. Quick, hassle-free claims processing

We take our responsibility as financial stewards of your health claims very seriously. Expect your claims to be processed quickly and accurately.

3. Easy prescription drug savings

If you take ongoing medications, you can make fewer trips to the pharmacy and save money at the same time through mail order and at participating retail pharmacies.

4. Unmatched support for your health

When you call customer service, a Health Guide will listen carefully to your concerns and direct you to the right information, resources or support. If you or a family member needs extra help managing a condition or recovering from an injury, a Blue Cross registered nurse will help you get the care and support you need.

5. Healthy extras like Fitness Programs

Your individual or family plan include healthy extras like Fitness Programs, an Online Health Assessment, Online Coaching Modules, a personal Online Wellness Center, and the myBlueCross member center.

6. Proven quality you can trust

Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Minnesota has consistently received an “Excellent” accreditation from The National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) for the two main components of its managed care business. The accreditation measures access, service, qualified providers and support for members’ health.

7. Peace of mind in uncertain times

Now more than ever, you need a health plan you know and trust. Join the nearly 3 million members who look to Blue Cross for innovative, cost-effective coverage they can depend on.
