BenefitPackages.com Announces the Sale of New Consumer-Driven Health Plans From Blue Cross of California

Woodland Hills, CA (PRWeb) February 19, 2007 -- BenefitPackages.com is pleased to announce the availability of a new consumer-driven health plan (CDHP) from Blue Cross of California. The Blue Cross Lumenos plans provide first-dollar coverage for a variety of preventive healthcare services. Plan members can choose between a Health Savings Account plan or a Health Incentive Plan that gives members money for participating in wellness programs.

"Blue Cross believes they can provide more benefit for the dollar because people are demonstrating a growing interest in living both a smarter and healthier lifestyle," said Larry Hurwitz, president of BenefitPackages.com. "One of the nicest features of this plan is that it provides 100% coverage for many preventive care services. If we can help people make intelligent lifestyle choices that are cost-effective and lead to better overall health, then everyone wins."

Blue Cross of California is currently offering 3 Lumenos plans:

•    Lumenos HSA -- This Health Savings Account plan lets members save tax-free money to pay for healthcare. This money accrues interest, and taxable income is reduced by the amount deposited each year.

•    Lumenos HIA -- The Lumenos Health Incentive Account plan allows members to earn money by participating in health and wellness programs. Members can spend this money on health-related expenses as they choose.

•    Lumenos HIA Plus -- The Lumenos Health Incentive Account Plus plan contributes $500 ($1,000 for family plans) annually to pay for healthcare expenses (allocations are made quarterly). Members are also eligible to earn money by participating in wellness programs. Funds left in the account at the end of the year roll over to the next year.

All of Lumenos Plans also include:

•    Physician Office Visits
