BlueCross BlueShield ID Card

The Blue Cross and Blue Shield Health Insurance ID Card has undergone a facelift!  The new card, according to BCBSNC is more durable and provides a better explanation of benefits.

“The main change is that the new two-sided ID card is now more wallet-friendly and durable.  It’s just a new look with added convenience.  As always, please refer to your BCBSNC Member Guide for complete benefit information.

Be sure to show your new ID card to your doctor or pharmacist at your next visit.

Important updates to your card:

• Copayment and benefit information most commonly used at the time of service is displayed.
• Benefits listed reflected your responsibility (example: $0 or 20 percent coinsurance) rather than BCBSNC’s responsibility.
• Helpful phone numbers and Web site addresses are grouped together on the back of the ID card
• Routine vision, chiropractic care and mental health/substance abuse benefits no longer appear on the ID card.

The information from this post is from BCBNC,  A Guide to a Healthier You, “Your ID card has a new look”.
