BlueCare plan overview
The plans we offer Kansans are labeled “Metallics.” This is how we group our plans to make it easier for you to identify the plan best for you.
Here’s a quick look at what each plan has to offer:
Bronze plans
- Lower monthly premium
- Higher out-of-pocket costs when you receive medical care
- A good option if you are a young adult and expect to have few health services during the plan year.
Silver plans
- Monthly premium is generally higher than Bronze
- Moderate out-of-pocket costs when you receive medical care
- A good option if you want to balance your monthly premium and out-of-pocket expenses.
Gold plans
- Monthly premium is generally higher than Silver
- Lower out-of-pocket costs when you receive medical care
- A good option if you expect to have many health services during the plan year.
Knowing which tax credit premiums you’re eligible for is an important step in knowing where (and how) you’d like to apply. Use this Health Insurance Marketplace Calculator before starting your enrollment process to learn more about your tax credit premium eligibility.
Please note, BlueCare plans are offered in all Kansas counties except Johnson and Wyandotte.

Why Blue?
Largest network
Health insurance shouldn’t stop at your local provider or hospital. That’s why we work with a wide network of providers in Kansas so our members have coverage across the state without worry. Traveling out of state? Your plan will provide coverage for emergent situations (as long as you're within the United States). For international travel, check out GeoBlue travel health insurance for coverage outside of the United States.
Kansans
We appreciate Kansans for Kansans because it’s who we are. Our staff live and work in Kansas – from customer service to sales to our President & CEO, Matt All, who was raised in Augusta. But, saying we’re Kansans and showing we’re Kansans aren’t the same, so we’re here to prove it. Check out how we’re engaged in our communities, showing up for Kansas, and continuing to be here for Kansans in every moment.
Customer service
We understand that health insurance is confusing. Our customer service team is here for you. We will help you understand the basics like forms and terms, but we will also make the calls, have the conversations, and push for your wellbeing (with your permission, of course). We’re here to be a partner in your health and wellness journey.
