The University of Michigan has been added to Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan's Medicare Advantage Network and will allow seniors who purchase the plan to access any provider at the U-M hospitals, it was announced Wednesday.
The Medicare Plus Blue PPO, which was announced in October, has lower premiums than the original Medicare Supplemental Plan C product, plus the Medicare Part D prescription drug plan, and offers additional benefits, the non-profit insurer said.
For instance, premiums will cost between $61 and $141 under the Medicare Plus Blue PPO, compared to $183 per month with the supplemental Plan C product. The PPO plan has preventative dental services, routine physicals, exanded home infusion therapy, prescription drug coverage, total body skin exams and resources to navigate the health care system, according to a release.
