Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan (BCBSM) Community Blue
Community Blue is a Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) and allows you to choose whether you receive health care services from a Community Blue PPO physician (in-network) or any physician (out-of-network). There is a nationwide network of participating PPO physicians and hospitals that allow you to choose any physician in the network without requiring a referral from a primary care physician.
For questions about specific coverage details or to access a listing of PPO participating providers, go to bcbsm.com or contact your MSU Dedicated Customer Service Unit at 888-288-1726.
