When you think of the 1920s, flappers and Prohibition probably come to mind. But another important thing happened then. People started going to hospitals more often because medical care got better. That made the price go up. When an administrator at Baylor University in Texas noticed teachers couldn’t afford their hospital bills, he came up with a plan.
More than 1,000 teachers paid $6 a year to get 21 days of hospital care. In 1934, the plan got a name and a logo: Blue Cross. A similar plan started for doctors’ services in the lumber and mining camps out west. It became known as Blue Shield.
