Overview
- Payments, which began in May 2026, are being sent on a rolling basis to people who filed by the November 5, 2021 deadline.
- About $1.9 billion from the $2.67 billion fund remains for distribution after legal and administrative costs, to be shared across roughly six million claims.
- Typical payments are often pegged near $300 to $333, but the formula uses your coverage length and premiums paid during 2008–2020, and payments under $5 are not sent.
- Claimants will receive funds by electronic debit card or check, and they can track their claim or payment method at bcbssettlement.com or by contacting the claims administrator.
- A separate provider settlement for doctors and hospitals is also paying out in 2026 through its own process and website.
