Always check with the doctor or medical facility directly to confirm that they accept Anthem Blue Cross before you receive treatment.

Pharmacy benefits are managed by Anthem Blue Cross. Please see the Anthem Blue Cross website (link below) to find a participating pharmacy near you, or call (800) 888-2108. If you visit a non-network pharmacy, you will need to pay for the prescription in full and then submit a claim for reimbursement.

In most cases, the provider will submit the claim for you.

If you are required to pay for services up front, then you will need to complete a claim form in order to be reimbursed by the insurance company.

Download a claim form below, and send the completed form with all bills and receipts for medical treatment to:

Anthem Blue Cross Life and Health Insurance Company
PO Box 60007
Los Angeles, CA 90060-0007

Make sure you fill out the form completely so your claim will be processed promptly. Keep copies of all the documents you submit for claims. To check the status of a claim you submitted, call Blue Cross at (800) 888-2108.
