Should Retired Civil Service employee with medicare and tri-care keep blue cross and blue shield?
That would be an awful lot of money. I would look into tricare for life and medicare and compare the costs to blue cross blue shield. With any of the three you are going to have some deductible but that deductible will be far less than the premiums for all three. The government is tampering with Tricare and medicare right now to try and find ways to save money but Blue cross and blue shield will be raising your rate soon also.
