Episode 2134 notes My guest Misty Snodgrass and I explore why only one carrier services 103 Kansas counties and even goes below five lives in small group coverage. They are Blue Cross Blue Shield of Kansas, and they are truly the hometown carrier. Misty is their Director of ACA & Medicaid and is my expert guest. At Blue Cross Blue Shield of Kansas, community involvement is a key component. Discuss how an EPO (Exclusive Provider Organization) may be a great option and we’ll contrast PPO Designs, etc. Other carriers pull out of the state when claims go up. Not Blue Cross of Kansas. They are here to stay and in all 103 counties. We’ve been here for 80 years and we aren’t going anywhere. This is episode 2134 of America’s Healthcare Advocate. I’m Cary Hall.
