Your Choices
Ocean Spray gives you three great options for quality health care through Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts:
- PPO 80
- PPO 70
- HDHP
- High Performance Network (HPN) available for Lehigh Valley, PA and Henderson, NV only
Which plan should you choose?
PPOs offer benefits for both in-network and out-of-network benefits. You pay a copay when you go to the doctor’s office or ER. Use the Health Care FSA to pay for out-of-pocket expenses with tax-free dollars.
You pay the full cost of medical care with the High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP) until you meet the annual deductible. Then, the plan pays the majority of the cost of medical care. Take advantage of the Health Savings Account to pay for eligible expenses with tax-free dollars.

This surcharge applies if your spouse or domestic partner has access to other employer-sponsored medical coverage but chooses to enroll in Ocean Spray’s plan instead.

Transparency In Coverage Rule
In compliance with the Transparency in Coverage Rule (TCR), through Blue Cross Blue Shield of MA, BCBSMA creates and publishes Machine-Readable Files on behalf of Ocean Spray Cranberries. The Transparency in Coverage Rule requires that group health plans post publicly available machine-readable files that include in-network negotiated payment rates and historical out-of-network charges for covered items and services. While these files are accessible to all, the file itself is large and written in JSON, which is a machine-readable language, and not easily interpreted or searchable. To review the Machine-Readable Files, visit https://transparency-in-coverage.bluecrossma.com/. The site will be searchable by Health Insurance Oversight System (HIOS) and employer tax ID number (EIN). To support our national and regional networks, we will provide links to other BCBSMA plans data within the table of contents directing you to the information needed for a complete In-network File.
