Healthcare coverage is the cornerstone of having a healthy family and lifestyle, from vaccinations and screening exams to vital access to coverage when the worst happens. But about five million Texans are uninsured and one reason why is a lack of education on what insurance options are available; as well as how to enroll in them and how to access discounts that make coverage more affordable.
So what can be done to close the gap and decrease the number of uninsured Texans? Be Covered, a new initiative of Blue Cross Blue Shield of Texas, is working to do just that - by educating both the uninsured and under-insured residents across our state.
Learn more about what you can do to get healthcare coverage in Texas, no matter your income level, by watching our video above and visiting BeCovered.org.
