The maternity rider is available for females (subscriber or spouse), ages 18 or older, who aren't pregnant at the time of enrollment and aren't on a child-only policy. An extra monthly charge applies for this option.
The maternity rider can be added during the annual renewal period (November for a January 1 effective date), as long as the policy has been in effect for at least 6 months; within 30 days following marriage (requires copy of marriage certificate); or upon adding your spouse as a dependent for reasons other than marriage (requires supporting documentation).
Please note that the maternity rider covers maternity services under the core health plan's deductible and coinsurance. There are usually no office visit co-payments and no separate deductible for maternity coverage. Complications from pregnancy are covered under Blue Advantage or Blue Options HSA, even if you don't have the maternity rider.1
Your newborn can be added to your existing policy within 30 days of the date of birth (without medical underwriting), regardless of whether you have the maternity rider. Coverage is effective as of the baby's date of birth, so long as your policy was active on your newborn's day of birth.
