JOSEPH: Hi! My name is Joseph and today I'm meeting with the Blue Cross and Blue Shield customer advocate to talk about...my premium payment options. I'm a little confused on paying my premium. What are my options?

BCBS ADVOCATE: To make a payment you can log into your Blue Access for Members account and use your debit card to make a payment. You then click on the Billing and Payments section to begin your payment.

JOSEPH: Okay, that's convenient. What if I want to use cash or a money order instead? Is that possible?

BCBS ADVOCATE: Both are accepted. If you're using a money order make it out to Blue Cross and Blue Shield. You can also use a MoneyGram to send cash. Our website provides more information about both methods.

JOSEPH: Okay, thank you. I'll research which payment option works best for me.

BCBS ADVOCATE: Glad I could help.
