New Information on Member ID Cards

The Consolidated Appropriations Act requires that member ID cards include deductible information and out-of-pocket maximums. We will provide all members with updated electronic ID cards that include this information.

How to access ID cards

• You can view, download and print most members’ electronic cards by completing an eligibility and benefits inquiry through Availity ® .
• Members can access their card several ways:
  • Through the Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Illinois (BCBSIL) app
  • By printing a copy of their updated electronic ID card, including deductible and out-of-pocket information from Blue Access for Members SM (BAM)
  • By requesting a physical card from customer service

  We will mail new cards that include deductible and out-of-pocket information to current members whose benefit plan changes in 2022. We’ll also send cards with updated information to new members whose plans go into effect in 2022.
