The SOB documents will include the coverage information you are used to seeing but in a much-simplified format. The format makes it easier for members to read and understand their plan benefits. SOBs will be included in new business proposals and renewals, open-enrollment materials, as well as member welcome kits as part of the Evidence of Coverage (EOC).
See FAQs about the new Summary of Benefits.
When providing the Summary of Benefits to an applicant or Blue Shield member, you must also include a Notice of Language Assistance (PDF, 1.04MB).
In addition, the Summary of Benefits and Coverage (SBC) Forms, provide your clients with an easy-to-understand overview of what our plans for groups of 101 and above cover. You can download SBC Forms and other resources for these plans:
