Medical


Mendocino Forest Products offers medical coverage through Blue Shield and Kaiser.

When choosing a plan, consider the total cost, including premiums and service costs. All plans cover preventive screenings fully but differ in deductibles, copays, and coinsurance. Choose a plan that balances coverage and out-of-pocket costs to fit your budget. The plan comparison highlights key features to help you decide.

Medical Plan Comparison

Blue Shield PPO and PPO Plus Medical Plans

The Blue Shield PPO and PPO Plus plans let you choose between in-network providers at negotiated rates or out-of-network providers at a possible higher cost. Copays apply to select services, except in-network preventive care, which is fully covered.

Other services may require meeting the annual deductible and coinsurance. After reaching the out-of-pocket maximum, the plan covers all eligible expenses for the rest of the year. You’ll save the most by using in-network providers.

Prescription Drug Coverage

Prescription drug coverage is included in the medical plan you select. Regardless of which plan you choose, you’ll save the most money by using a participating pharmacy. You can access a list of pharmacies through your plan’s website or by calling member services.

Reminders

Once you receive your new medical and prescription ID card, don't forget to let your provider know to ensure accurate and timely processing of claims.
