CareFirst Plan III

CareFirst Plan III is available to employees who meet the definition of limited-time faculty or staff or part-time instructors. You will be notified if you are eligible to enroll in this plan. It’s a traditional indemnity plan administered by CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield. Express Scripts administers the prescription drug portion of this plan. With this plan, you must meet a deductible first, and then you pay a portion of the cost (your coinsurance/copay) when you access non-preventive care and prescription drugs. The medical plan uses CareFirst’s PPO Network; however you can always visit providers outside of the plan network.
