Three levels of coverage

Our Blue Shield Silver 70 Trio HMO, Blue Shield Gold 80 Trio HMO, and Blue Shield Platinum 90 Trio HMO plans use the same network of doctors and hospitals but offer different monthly premiums, annual deductibles, and out-of-pocket costs for care.

You can buy these plans direct from Blue Shield or from the Covered California marketplace.

1. Family coverage has an individual deductible within the family deductible. Blue Shield will pay benefits for an individual member on the family plan once the member meets the individual deductible amount. Blue Shield will pay benefits for all covered family members once the family deductible is satisfied. The family deductible can be satisfied when two family members meet their individual deductibles, or when the combined deductible contributions of three or more members reaches the family deductible limit.

2. Family coverage includes an individual out‑of‑pocket maximum (OOPM) within the overall family OOPM. Blue Shield pays 100% for covered services for a family member once that person meets their individual OOPM. Blue Shield pays 100% for all covered family members once the family OOPM is met. The family OOPM can be reached when two members meet their individual OOPM or when the combined OOPM amounts of three or more members reach the family limit.

3. Collection frames are pre-selected frames by insurance providers which are fully covered with no out of pocket costs. Non-collection frames are other standard retail or designer frames with a fixed allowance.

* A referral from your PCP is required to see virtual and in-person providers and specialists.
