Where did you get the idea that BC/BS was one of the most expensive plans? According to the plan comparison chart, BC/BS falls in the middle price-wise.

Comparing benefits, provider availability, benefits when you travel out of your area, and benefits when also covered under medicare is possibly more important than choosing by price alone.
