Being away from home for the first time is always a stressful issue. But with my Blue Cross Blue Shield card I am able to go to the doctor if my ear hurts, go to the doctor if I have strep throat. And I know for sure I'll always be covered by Blue Cross Blue Shield insurance.
I'm Abby Neiter, I am 18 years old, and I'm a freshman in college studying visual communication. Knowing that I have Blue Cross Blue Shield insurance is a huge reassurance that I will have for the rest of my life. The other week I was at my college pharmacy and I was picking up a prescription. And I presented my Blue Cross Blue Shield card, and I immediately got a discounted rate. And I was so excited because college funds are pretty tight. So it was a great feeling.
