Did you know you can shop and compare costs for hundreds of health care procedures online? Just like shopping for new tires for your car or a new computer, doing a little comparison shopping can really pay off.

The price of health care services can differ by hundreds and sometimes thousands of dollars based on where you get care. Higher cost doesn't always mean better quality. By choosing a cost-effective option for your care, you can save money on your out-of-pocket costs and you may earn cash with Member Rewards.

How Does Member Rewards Work?

It's easy. There aren't any forms to fill out. Just follow these steps when a doctor suggests a medical procedure or service:

1. Log into Blue Access for Members^SM at mybam.bcbsnm.com.
2. Look for Find Care. Then you can search for providers such as doctors, facilities and hospitals. Compare your choices and select a reward-eligible location. 
3. Have the procedure or service at the reward-eligible location you chose.

Once the claim is paid and verified as reward eligible, you'll receive a cash reward by check or alternative form of payment.

To see if you have the Member Rewards program, call the customer service number listed on your member ID card. Even if you don’t have Member Rewards, you can still cut your out-of-pocket costs by choosing a lower cost provider.
