The CareFirst BlueCross® Blue Shield® Plan
A comprehensive major medical plan, this plan is a traditional indemnity-type medical plan. This means that after meeting a deductible, you are responsible for paying a portion of the cost (a coinsurance amount) each time you use medical services. You pay less for care when you use JHU's special "preferred physician network".
