Columbia, S.C.-based BlueCross BlueShield of South Carolina will open its first health insurance retail store, which will provide face-to-face assistance for consumers shopping for insurance. The store is scheduled to open on January 23 in Mount Pleasant, S.C.

The store will offer insurance for adults and children. The retail outlet will also host periodic wellness seminars, and will include a wellness station with blood pressure checks, chair massage and refreshments.
