New Anthem Blue Cross Health Plan ID Cards Coming Soon
Anthem Blue Cross will issue new Health Plan ID cards to all covered Health Plan participants beginning in late December 2021. The new cards will be valid beginning January 1, 2022 and will include additional coverage information, as required under the No Surprises Act, the new federal law that establishes a range of consumer protections against surprise medical bills and greater transparency in medical costs. You can read more about the No Surprises Act at www.dgaplans.org/no-surprises-act.
In addition to the information currently on your ID cards, which includes your name, Health Plan ID number, medical group number and plan code, the new cards will now include the following:
- Your plan deductible amount,
- Out-of-pocket limits and
- Website and phone number where you can get further coverage information
Two cards will be issued per family. Individual family members will not receive their own card(s). All cards issued will show the name of the enrolled participant and all covered dependents. Be sure to destroy your old Health Plan ID card once you receive the new one.
