It's simple really: a 2"x 3" card with rounded edges. Your name is on the front, along with codes and some other numbers to help us look up your benefits.

The Blue Cross and Blue Shield in the left corner means that this card is anything but standard. There are high expectations that come with having this card, expectations that have been built over the years by earning your trust. There is something more, too. It's that special feeling that comes with having a Blue Cross and Blue Shield card.
