"I had purchased an individual policy and Blue Cross Blue Shield canceled all their individual policies in the state of Texas effective December 31st," Cruz explained. "So our health care got canceled. We got a notice in the mail. Blue Cross Blue Shield was leaving the market." |

Keep the plan we pick for you. We will be moving our Blue Choice PPO members to our new Blue Advantage Plus plan, an HMO plan with added out-of-network benefits. |
Ted Cruz would've been automatically re-enrolled in to the most similar product offered by BCBSTX. It is impossible for BCBSTX to cancel his policy if they offer any individual coverage in 2016, which they do. In this case it was their Blue Advantage Plus plan. He had to actively not automatically re-enroll in this plan in order to lose coverage, and then chose to not re-purchase coverage by the Janjuary 1 effective date deadline (I think it ended up being December 19th?).
Ted Cruz is a big fat liar
