Summary of Benefits and Coverage
The Summary of Benefits and Coverage (SBC) documents will help you choose a health plan. The SBC shows you how you and the plan would share the cost for covered healthcare services. NOTE: Information about the cost of this plan (called the premium) will be provided separately. This is only a summary. For more information about your coverage or to get a copy of the complete terms, please refer to the Medical Benefits Booklets section in the right column. For general definitions of common terms, such as allowed amount, balance billing, coinsurance, copayment, deductible, provider, or other underlined terms, see the Glossary.

Understanding your health benefits

Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield and USA TODAY Network’s in-house branded content studio launched a new five-part video series designed to help Americans better understand their health plan benefits, make informed care decisions, and manage costs with greater confidence.

The series, hosted by Emmy and Critics' Choice Award-winning actress Katherine LaNasa, breaks down common but often confusing aspects of care, from understanding basic health insurance terms to choosing where to go for medical care. The videos also encourage viewers to take advantage of digital resources like the Sydney Health app and Anthem's member support tools to estimate costs, understand benefits, and find in-network care.

Watch all five videos in the series:
