Things to Know Before You Enroll
Not every plan letter is available. BCBS Kansas has historically skipped some of the less common plan letters (such as B, C, F, and M) in favor of concentrating on the plans most Kansas seniors actually buy. If you need one of the less common letters, another carrier may be the better fit.
Attained-age pricing. Like most Kansas Medigap carriers, premiums are generally priced to increase with age rather than staying flat — worth factoring into a long-term cost comparison, not just the starting rate.
Don't confuse it with BCBS Kansas City. Blue Cross Blue Shield of Kansas and Blue Cross Blue Shield of Kansas City are separate companies serving different (though overlapping, near the state line) territories. If you're near the KC metro, it's worth comparing both Blue plans directly.
