Your Healthy Blue benefits

Nothing is more important than keeping you and your family healthy. We offer the care you need, plus extra benefits just for our members.

If you must get care in the hospital, you’re covered. Benefits also include urgent and emergency care.
Wellness visits (annual exams) are one of the best ways to help protect your health. You won’t pay anything for these visits or the immunizations (shots) you need to stay healthy.
If you are pregnant, all your pregnancy care, including labor and delivery, is included in your benefits. Your newborn baby’s care is also covered.
Healthy teeth are an important part of your overall health. Dental care is provided by DentaQuest. Eligible members can receive routine oral exams, cleanings, X-rays, extractions, fillings and medically necessary emergency procedures from an oral surgeon.
Eligible members can receive an annual eye exam and glasses, available once every two years or annually for members age 20 and younger.
