New Deductible Education Tool Launches

Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts launched a dynamic, real-time tool for our members to access personalized information about their deductibles. The tool allows members to easily view:

  • Current deductible status
  • Out of pocket maximum status
  • Co-insurance maximum status (if applicable)

In addition to making the deductible easier to understand, this enhancement offers a number of helpful features designed to:

  • Drive member understanding
    • Pop-up definitions of key health insurance terms
    • Displays accumulation for the correct deductible period (plan year vs. calendar year)
  • Simplify access to information
    • Displays medical and dental deductible and OOP maximum information in one place
    • Displays both family and individual information so subscribers can better manage their plans
    • Allows NASCO members to see deductible accumulations without leaving Member Central
  • Support emerging plans
    • Displays merged pharmacy and medical claim accumulations in one display to support Health Savings Account (HSA) needs
    • Displays different deductible levels for Blue Options deductible plans
