Employees can access Blue Shield Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) Plans provides a high-quality network of doctors and hospitals and allows members to enjoy the freedom to choose from a variety of care options. Both Blue Shield Trio HMO and Blue Shield Access+ HMO require members to select an in-network Primary Care Provider (PCP). These plans are ideal if you prefer a lower payroll deduction and are comfortable with a PCP directing member's care. Both plans may provide coverage in California only.
