Optional: Configuring a plan bundle
Configuring a plan bundle is optional. A plan bundle is an aggregation of different stand-alone plans that are sold as one item. A plan bundle is used to group plans such as medical, dental, vision, and pharmacy and market them as a bundle.
A fixed bundle is one where the products are always sold together. For example, when you enroll in ABC Medical, you automatically are enrolled in the plans that were configured in the bundle. A choice bundle means that you can add multiple plans of the same type, for example, medical, when you configure the plan bundle.
