Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Oklahoma (BCBSOK) is excited to offer providers the ability to view, download and print the member’s medical ID card online via the Availity Eligibility and Benefit Inquiry results (271 transaction). This new and more convenient option will be available for medical ID cards issued to BCBSOK members in Dec. 2020, making it easier to obtain the member’s ID card for your records.
Please note that Federal Employee Program® (FEP®) member ID cards are not currently available in the Availity eligibility and benefits results.
How do you view the member ID card via Availity?
Viewing and printing the member ID card online is easy and consists of only five steps:
- Log into Availity
- Select Patient Registration from the navigation menu
- Select Eligibility and Benefit Inquiry, then complete and submit request
- Select the View Member ID Card from the top of the results screen, if available*
- View, download and print the BCBSOK ID card
*The online ID card is a courtesy feature offered to assist you. There may be instances when the BCBSOK member ID card is not readily available online. The eligibility and benefits response provides sufficient details to determine patient coverage and benefits in absence of an ID card.

Checking eligibility and/or benefit information and/or the fact that a service has been preauthorized is not a guarantee of payment. Benefits will be determined once a claim is received and will be based upon, among other things, the member’s eligibility and the terms of the member’s certificate of coverage applicable on the date services were rendered. If you have any questions, call the number on the member’s ID card.
