Re-registration for Online Accounts
As of Sept. 18, 2009, all members with online accounts will have to reregister for a User Name and password to access their bcbsm.com online services.
Why do I have to reregister for my online access?
BCBSM
has upgraded it's Web site to provide a better online experience for its members. Due to the security involved in the design of bcbsm.com all members with online accounts are required to
reregister
to continue using their online services.

Yes! User Names for accounts that existed prior to Sept. 18, 2009, will be deleted from the system and available to be chosen during reregistration. (Please note all User Names created after Sept. 18, 2009, must be unique. Your User Name may have already been used by another member. In that case you will need to choose another.)

What do you mean by "The Last Name" on your
ID
Card?
The last name on your
ID
card is that of the person under whom you are insured and may be different from yours. If
BCBSM

BCN
member, it's located under "Subscriber Name".
What is the Enrollee
ID
or Contract Number?
This number contains nine numeric characters and appears under "Enrollee
ID
" or "Contract No." on both the
BCBSM

BCN

Card.

Do not include the alpha characters, spaces or hypens.
Whose date of birth do I enter?
This is the date of birth of the person registering.

provide this for me?
Members create their own User Name. It must be at least seven characters. Your User Name may have already been used by another member in this case you will need to choose another.
Can my password be anything I want?
Members also create their own password. It must be at least six characters and contain at least one alpha and one numeric character. It can't be the same as the User Name and no obscene words are accepted. When creating a password, make sure it's easy to remember, but not obvious to others.
Why do I need to setup security questions and answers?
If a member forgets their User Name or password, these security questions and answers are used to re-establish access to the system.
