PHOENIX — Thin Blue Line Benefits Association, a healthcare provider based out of Texas, is being investigated by the Arizona Attorney General’s Office for “unlawfully providing insurance in Arizona,” the government agency announced Tuesday.

Attorney General Kris Mayes authorized the investigation after the Arizona Department of Insurance and Financial Institutions ordered a cease-and-desist order on Thin Blue Line, which has services geared to retired law enforcement.

The healthcare provider was accused of improper handling of medical claims, as DIFI said Thin Blue Line “is not licensed to provide insurance in Arizona” as a self-funded entity.

The cease-and-desist document cited that Thin Blue Line from January to June 2025 had collected nearly $6 million from 4,682 Arizona members.

Retired Valley police and firefighters have falsely been told that they have “unpaid medical bills.”

Thin Blue Line has until Aug. 15 “to provide draft notices of cancellation to the department,” which also means the company must send individual contract holders cancellation notices.
