BlueEdge gives your employees freedom of choice, flexibility, a broad range of benefits, and the most comprehensive provider network in New Mexico. Across the country, PPO networks are linked through the BlueCard® program so it should be easy to find a network doctor or hospital when traveling, living, working, or studying anywhere in the United States.
When your employees receive care from contracting PPO network doctors and hospitals:
- Benefits are paid at the highest level
- There are no claim forms to complete
- Your employees are not responsible for any charges above the Blue Cross and Blue Shield negotiated fee or allowable amount
- Your employees do not need a referral to see the doctor of their choice
- Once PPO coverage begins, the only other out-of-pocket expenses are (1) plan-specific coinsurance payments for covered benefits, (2) charges for non-covered services
Your employees can always choose to receive care from doctors and hospitals outside the network, but benefits will be paid at a lower level.
