Which is the best plan to go on? I dont qualify for free or welfare coverage or anything so I have to get normal coverage. Which is better, blue cross or blue sheild? Please help with any suggestions!

Hello all! It looks like my hubby and I may be moving out of state soon, and I currently have Blue Cross insurance from the cafe where I work. His potential new job unfortunately does not offer benefits at this time, although they are hoping to soon. I know I can do COBRA until new benefits kick in, but I’ll need somewhere that offers a plan.

My question is does anyone know of any chain restaurants offer health insurance (similar or equal to BC/BS)? He and I are trying on starting a family, so benefits, especially maternity, are very important. Any info would be greatly helpful! Thanks!
I’ve worked at 3 different smaller corporate restaurants (with like 2-3 locations) and have had insurance, so you can for sure get benefits as a server. I’m asking if anyone knows which chains offer them.

For example, do doctors have legal a basis to choose whether to participate in only the PPO plans for a health insurance company and not in their HMOs? What if the insurance company farms out its credentialing to a 3rd party payor? Any one know the section in the code ov virginia that would be applicable to this?
