Insurance Matters

We’re #1 to our members. And they’re #1 to us.

June 2020

The Heartland has real heart for us.

Members rank Blue KC #1 in Customer Satisfaction. 

Members ranked Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Kansas City (Blue KC) #1 in Overall Customer Satisfaction among health plans in the Heartland, according to the J.D. Power 2020 U.S. Commercial Member Health Plan Study. By continuing to focus on prioritizing our members, we were awarded a score 14 points higher than the regional average. We also scored highest in the coverage and benefits factor. The results were based on a study that measured member satisfaction of 149 health plans in 21 regions throughout the United States.

The J.D. Power study examined six factors:

  • Billing and Payment
  • Cost
  • Coverage and Benefits
  • Customer Services
  • Information and Communication
  • Provider Choice

Blue KC President and Chief Executive Officer Erin Stucky responded to the top honors. “We would like to thank our members for recognizing Blue KC with this prestigious ranking. Particularly during this turbulent time in healthcare, we are honored that our members are receiving the support they need.”  

Ms. Stucky continued, “Every individual on the Blue KC team is committed to delivering on our mission to provide affordable access to healthcare and to improve the health of our members.  This award is a testament to their efforts to keep our members at the center of healthcare.”
