Native American Plans

We also offer Native American plans at each metal level to eligible Native Americans. These plans provide the same benefits as the standard metal level plans when accessing covered services from network and non-network providers, but also allow Native American members to access covered services from Native American providers for $0 out of pocket.  In addition to the Native American metal level plans, we also offer Native Americans the Native American 300 Subsidy plan. This plan allows Native American members to access covered services from Native American providers, Blue Shield network providers – and in some locations, even non-network providers – for $0 out of pocket.
