Medical Benefits
Overview
AGA offers three medical plan options administered by Blue Cross Blue Shield of Alabama. All plans are Preferred Provider Organization plans.
All plans use the same network of providers who have agreed to charge discounted rates to plan members. The amount you pay for health care will vary depending on whether or not you use in-network providers and facilities. You always have the choice to go to any provider, but you’ll pay less if you stay within the Blue Cross Blue Shield of Alabama network.
