With no waiting period, customers will receive instant coverage and can make a claim once the plan is effective.
Blue said that the online application process takes only five minutes and personal medical reports are not required for submission.
With the streamlined claim process, customers need to provide a copy of medical receipts and relevant claim statements from their insurers to make a claim.
They may be able to receive reimbursement via the Faster Payment System (FPS) in a minimum of one hour.
