1. Member-centered care

We’ve made preventive care the foundation of our coverage because it’s easier to stay healthy than it is to get healthy. We also help manage acute and chronic medical conditions to help you achieve your wellness goals.

2. Hassle-free care

BCN is easy to understand and use. When you receive covered services, there’s no paperwork. BCN pays health care providers directly. You’re only responsible for the copays included in your coverage and for a deductible, if you have one.

3. Credibility

With Blue Care Network, you get the Cross® and Shield®, trusted symbols of health care that are recognized everywhere. One of Michigan's largest health maintenance organizations, BCN is a wholly-owned, nonprofit subsidiary of Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan®.

4. Care that travels

BCN's service area starts in Michigan, but you can count on care when you travel beyond Michigan's borders. You’ll have access to hospitals and doctors who participate with Blue plans across the country. And emergency care is covered anywhere in the world.

We’re committed to making sure you receive the best value for your hard-earned health care dollar. That includes helping you save with special offers on healthy goods and services from local and national companies.
