From the Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts Foundation, Nov. 28, 2017: More than $1.5 million in grants has been awarded to 31 community organizations by the Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts Foundation in support of efforts to promote accessible health care and coverage for vulnerable and low-income residents across the state.

Among the “Connecting Consumers with Care” grants was one giving $40,000 to the Cambridge Economic Opportunity Committee.

It will provide support for up to two years to help eligible consumers with enrolling in publicly subsidized health insurance, keeping them insured and addressing post-enrollment issues to maximize access to care.
