Solution

The first health insurance plan in the U.S. began in 1929. It was initiated by Baylor University, which developed a plan to provide a certain amount of hospital care for teachers in Dallas, Texas. This concept evolved into what is now known as Blue Cross insurance. The establishment of this health insurance model marked a significant shift in healthcare financing, providing a structure for future health insurance plans throughout the country. The earlier dates listed in the options, such as 1820 or 1955, do not correspond with the origins of structured health insurance in the U.S., and 2000 is well past the established formats for health insurance.
