We’d love to talk. Get in touch to see what Blue Shield can do for your group.
What’s it like to get your coverage from Blue Shield?
Specialty benefits for a healthier, happier workforce
Bundling a specialty offering (dental, vision, or life coverage) with existing medical benefits, allows labor groups to promote holistic and whole health coverage for members and their families while gaining streamlined plan administration and added cost savings. Dental, vision, and life coverage can also be purchased independently or integrated into one benefits package including all three.
