• SelectBlue, SelectBlue Advantage
• BlueValue, BlueValue Advantage
• BlueEdge HSA, BlueEdge HSA 5000

BlueChoice PPO Network

The BlueChoice Network is a smaller PPO network of doctors and hospitals than the standard BCBSTX PPO network that reduces the cost of BlueChoice plans. The two BlueCross BlueShield of Texas indiviudal plans that utilize the "BlueChoice" PPO network are:

• BlueChoice Select
• BlueChoice Value

Because of network limitations, the BlueChoice plans are not appropriate for all Texas residents. These products are basically for residents of Texas metropolitan areas, including Chicago, Rockford and Springfield. To find out if your physician or hospital is in the BlueChoice network, use the Provider Finder. The list of Texas hospitals participating in the "BlueChoice" PPO network is below.
