Recovering from a natural disaster is never easy. We're here to help our members who have been impacted by events such as tornadoes, hurricanes, earthquakes and severe weather.

If you've been affected by a natural disaster, we can help you:

Find a doctor of hospital
Refill a prescription if you have Prime Therapeutics
Coordinate or transition your care
Get a member ID card

If you don't have your BCBSTX member ID card, you can either:

Print a temporary card on Blue Access for Members^SM (BAM^SM), or
Call the Customer Service number for your plan. Provide either your Social Security number or your name and date of birth so that our customer advocates can help you.
