Re: re-visiting the "portability" issue with BCBS plans
I can't speak for the others, but I did read your OP. My answer is the same . . . it depends.
Group is handled differently from individual and most of the folks on this forum are individual agents. If you are in a group plan and part of their national accounts network you will have few problems moving from state to state (as long as you remain connected to the national account PPO).
Individual is a different animal.
Also, you don't want to name the plan or state but you want advice and then want to cast stones at folks who have no financial interest in answering ANY question from you or anyone else.
Nice try, but that doesn't fly with me.
So if you want to take the chip off your shoulder and try again, go for it. Otherwise, you have your answer.
