BlueCross BlueShield of Alabama

There are two medical plan choices from BlueCross BlueShield of Alabama —a Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) and a Consumer Healthcare Plan (CHP). The premiums (the amount you pay each month for benefit coverage) for each plan vary.

Plan Highlights

For both options:

  • When you receive care in-network, you benefit from our negotiated discounts and greater plan coverage for your services.
  • Preventive care is covered at 100% as long as you are treated by an in-network provider.

PPO option

  • Your benefits are higher when you visit a provider in the plans network.
  • You will pay a copay for primary care visits, telemedicine, specialist treatment and urgent care.

CHP option

  • Your employee paycheck contribution is lower with this option.
  • You will first meet a deductible before the plan covers a percentage of covered expenses.
  • Nidec contributes monthly to a tax-advantaged Health Savings Plan (HSA) to help pay for medical costs, including the higher deductible.
