Answer:

B) Baylor University

Step-by-step explanation:

Blue Cross started as a partnership between Baylor University Hospital and the Dallas public school teachers. They were searching alternatives to provide affordable health care fore public school teachers who were also teachers at Baylor University.

Their solution was to offer a prepaid health plan to the teachers by which 50 cents per month would be deducted from their salary, and they would be entitled to up to 21 days of hospital care per year. The plan was so successful that other people, not only teachers, started enrolling from all over town.
