Since the subject has been discussed in the other thread, I wonder if any agents here would be willing to query their home state (not CA) Blue plan and find out the details on how someone moving to their state enrolls in the interplan transfer plan with your Blue.
For those who may not have followed the thread, each state's Blue carrier(s) is/are required to provide a GI health plan called an interplan transfer to any Blue member in another state moving into your state. I have two sources at this time which indicate this is a mandatory plan that must be offered by all BCBS Association members (of which there are 39). I'd love to get a summary list of states programs for interplan transfer and believe it would make a great reference for agents.
CALIFORNIA
Incoming
Both Blues offer enrollment in interplan transfer upon reciept of request for enrollment from prior Blue carrier. Both Blues will mail the new resident information and application for interplan transfer enrollment. Interplan transfer is GI product
Outgoing
Both Blues will direct wire or call Blue carrier in new state requesting interplan transfer paperwork be mailed for GI enrollment with Blue in new state.
