My Health, My Way
Every Blue Cross member has access to My Health, My Way at no extra charge. It all starts with a free Personal Health Assessment — an online questionnaire that helps reveal any health risks you might face. You get a comprehensive, personal report and all the tools you might need to stay healthy or improve your health.
These tools include:
Care Management
Our Care Management department is staffed by doctors, nurses and pharmacists. We're here to help you make the best possible decisions about your healthcare. Our goal is to offer clinical programs and services that provide you with health guidance and access to high-quality care.
- We help coordinate your healthcare.
- You get support from a registered nurse.
Our Case Management program helps when a complex medical condition or a catastrophic illness or accident affects you or a family member. Our nurses are experienced with cancer treatment, transplants, high-risk pregnancy, children with special needs, traumatic injuries and many other complex conditions.
Our Disease Management program works with you and your healthcare providers to improve your health and ability to live successfully with a chronic condition, such as heart disease or diabetes.
