How to Make a Claim

Some providers or clinics will have the option to direct-bill to your plan, meaning little to no out-of-pocket expenses! If a clinic can't direct-bill, you must pay for the service, then submit a claim for reimbursement. To submit a Health and Dental claim anywhere, use the Meavie Blue Cross mobile app or web portal. To submit international medical claims anywhere, use the Cowan portal.
