Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts takes steps to ease employee student debt

Published Updated 3 Min Read

Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts is offering a new student loan benefit to its 3,800 employees. The health insurance company is paying $75 monthly towards individual workers student loan debt in addition to providing one-on-one financial coaching and guidance on repayment strategies.

“We do surveys every year to take a pulse of how our employees are feeling about different things as it relates to benefits,” says Lesley Delaney, director of benefits at Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts. “One of the things we noticed was that financial well-being was a big stressor for our associates.”
