Adopting digital member ID cards
Anthem has a continued mission to leverage digital technology to provide enhanced services for both members and care providers. We encourage the support of care providers in accepting digital ID cards instead of a physical member ID card. As members increasingly use digital ID cards, care providers may need to implement changes in their processes to accept this format.
Due to recent enhancements, care providers can bypass the request for cards by accessing Availity.com. If a copy of a physical member identification card is needed, a member can email, fax, or access card details saved in their digital wallet. As a reminder, care providers can also access eligibility and benefit information without the health care identification (HCID). This makes both check-ins and submitting claims easier and faster.
Anthem is dedicated to providing digital solutions that transform both care provider and payer interactions. Thank you in advance for your continued partnership and support in empowering our members to use their digital ID cards. With your help, we can continually build towards a future of shared success.
