Short-Term Health Insurance
Temporarily Uninsured?
Choose Blue TransitionsSM Short-Term/Travel EPO for peace of mind...
Accidents and unexpected illnesses can happen to anyone. That's why people who are temporarily uninsured need immediate coverage with Blue Transitions, a short-term health insurance plan from Blue Cross and Blue Shield of New Mexico (BCBSNM). This plan lets you choose from three deductible options and decide how long you need the coverage – from one to six months with the option to reapply for up to six additional months.
Blue Transitions is designed to fit your budget while providing peace of mind that you are receiving reliable health care coverage and protection from unexpected accidents or illnesses. This short-term plan is ideal if you plan to travel and need coverage, if you are in between jobs, waiting for employer coverage to begin, or if COBRA is too expensive for you. You receive access to our contracted providers in New Mexico and nationwide through the BlueCard® program, as well as up to $2 million in covered benefits per person. BCBSNM pays 70 percent and you pay 30 percent of eligible expenses after you meet the deductible. You can rely on short-term/travel coverage from a health insurance company you know and trust.
Freedom of Choice
- Choose from a $500, $1000, or $2000 deductible
- Decide how long you need coverage — 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 months of coverage
- No referrals required to see specialists (prior approval required for some services)
- Choose doctors and hospitals from the most comprehensive provider network statewide
- No claims to file with Preferred Providers (in-network providers). Members must see health care providers in our network to receive benefits; services from out-of-network providers are not covered except for emergencies.
