Claims
Get your medical bills paid
On occasion, you may have to pay for health services yourself. For example, you may have to see an out-of-network doctor who does not accept your insurance. If this occurs, you can seek reimbursement by submitting a Member Reimbursement Form. The Member Reimbursement form can be easily obtained by visiting the BCN website.
