Blue Access for Producers

BlueCard PPO


Blue Cross and Blue Shield (BCBS) is one of the most trusted and respected names in the health care benefits industry. Now, thanks to the BlueCard® PPO Preferred Provider Health Insurance Plan (PPO), your clients can take advantage of that reputation almost anywhere in the United States.

Through the BlueCard PPO Program, Blue Cross and Blue Shield Plans work together to help ensure our customers receive affordable health care. Blue Cross and Blue Shield Plans throughout the country have established Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) networks of contracting doctors, hospitals and other health care providers. These extensive provider networks - available to 97 percent of the U.S. population - are the key to the BlueCard PPO Program.
