The key to using your benefits
Your member ID card is your key to using your medical plan benefits. It has important information related to your coverage, including out-of-pocket costs and helpful contact numbers. You should take it with you to all of your appointments along with any other health insurance cards you may have, such as a Medicare card.
fepblue App
You can easily view and securely share your card on the go using our free fepblue app.
Physical Card
We only send member ID cards in the contract holder's name. If you’re on a Self Only contract, you’ll receive one card. Self + One and Self & Family contract holders will receive two ID cards.
MyBlue® account
You can view your card online using your MyBlue account. You can also order additional cards and view a PDF of your temporary card if you’ve misplaced it.
Access your card anytime, anywhere on our app
The easiest way to use your member ID card is with the fepblue app. You can quickly view your coverage information and important contact numbers 24/7. You can also securely share it with your Preferred providers with just a tap. Plus, iOS users can save it to your Wallet for added convenience.

Important coverage information
Your member ID card contains information related to your specific coverage, including:
- Your member ID number
- What plan you’re enrolled in: FEP Blue Focus, Basic Option or Standard Option
- The effective date of coverage
- Information to use your medical and pharmacy benefits
- Your deductible and out-of-pocket maximum
Helpful contact numbers
Your member ID card features phone numbers you can call to get answers to your questions about our programs, benefits and tools, including:
- Important customer service numbers, such as precertification, retail pharmacy and overseas assistance
- Our 24/7 Nurse Line when you need general health advice
These numbers are also available here on our site.
Keep your information safe and secure
We’re committed to protecting our members, healthcare providers and federal benefits against healthcare fraud. But we can’t stop healthcare fraud alone. Here’s how you can protect your information:
- Think of your member ID card as being as valuable as your debit or credit card. Keep your physical card in a safe place.
- Never share your member ID card with anyone except your healthcare providers or pharmacy. If anyone else requests your personal information, do not share it.
- If you think your card was stolen, you should contact your local Plan and request a new contract ID when you request a new card to prevent unauthorized use.
If you suspect fraud, call the FEP Fraud Hotline at 1-800-337-8440.
How will I get and use my member ID card?
Always show your new member ID card to health care providers so they can quickly access your health plan benefits and help you get the most value from your plan. If you’re new to Florida Blue, you'll receive a member ID card with your plan documents after you've made your first payment. If you’re already a member and currently have a plastic Florida Blue ID card with a magnetic stripe, your benefit information will automatically be updated on the effective date of your new coverage. And remember: only the primary policyholder’s name will show on the card even if your plan covers your whole family.
Can I get a new card if I lose mine?
To get a replacement member ID card anytime, log in and click ID Card in the upper right corner. Or click My Plan, then ID Card on the mobile app.
