    Selling Premera through 2019

    If you need to enroll clients in a Premera Blue Cross Medicare Supplement plan before the end of this year, continue to request supplies through our 2019 enrollment kit order form. The 2019 kit will enable you to enroll your clients in all our active plans.

    What’s ahead in 2020

    We are closing Medicare Supplement Plan F and Plan High Deductible F to new sales starting January 1, 2020. Your clients who already have Premera Medicare Supplement Plan F or Plan High Deductible F will be allowed to keep these plans on or after January 1, 2020.

    In addition, any client who was Medicare eligible prior to January 1, 2020, can still enroll in either Plan F or Plan High Deductible F.

    The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid (CMS) releases cost shares every year. CMS does not announce in advance when the costs shares will be release. In recent years, they have been released in November. Check our Producer News page later this month for the latest updates.
