The freedom to choose

Make sure your Medicare plan is the one you need

With some insurers, you can get locked into a Medicare plan that may not be right for you. But thanks to our exclusive Blue-to-Blue program, if your needs change over time, Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina (Blue Cross NC) gives you the flexibility to switch Medicare plans:¹

Without additional medical exams
Without underwriting or additional health questions
Without any hassle!

You can:

Switch from Medicare Advantage to Medicare Supplement
Switch from Medicare Supplement to Medicare Advantage
Switch from one of our Medicare Supplement plans to another

So, you can always be sure to have the Medicare plan that best suits your needs and budget.

Plan G Rate Estimates – When members stay with a Blue Cross NC Medicare Supplement plan, they can save a great deal on premiums, because rate increases are more consistent and predictable over time. (Competitor rate is based on actual Plan G rates from a competitive Medicare Supplement offering.)

The high price of low rates

With Medicare plans from some insurers, you might get a low rate to start. But, when it’s time to renew, you can get stuck with a much higher rate.

And what if your needs change and you want to switch Medicare Supplement plans? You may have to reapply and face a new round of medical questions to qualify.

The result? Over time, you can end up paying much more in premiums with a competitor’s plan. And you may also end up stuck with a plan you can’t change – a plan that may not fit your needs or budget.
