My spouse passed away and my insurance coverage was cancelled. What now?

Dealing with the loss of a spouse is difficult. After the initial shock wears off, there are arrangements that need to be made, paperwork to fill out and if the spouse had group insurance benefits, sometimes those benefits terminate after a period of time. So where does that leave you? Blue Cross has affordable health insurance plans that are comparable to the group insurance plan benefits you previously had. With some plans offering guaranteed enrolment and no medical exam, you won’t have to worry about qualifying.
