Value Blue is designed especially for income-eligible individuals who have gone the past 12 months without being covered on a health insurance policy. This special low-cost program is made possible through Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Kansas, with the endorsement of the Kansas Medical Society, Kansas Hospital Association and the Kansas Insurance Department.
