Put the Power of Blue to Work for You

Blue gives you the power to create and maintain a healthy lifestyle. It puts resources at your fingertips, giving you the health care-related information you need to take charge of your health.

Talk to a Nurse
How does the Nurse Advice Line add value to your coverage? If you or a family member is ill or injured, or maybe unsure of what to do when faced with a health concern, call Blue Health Connection at the number on the back of your ID card for immediate help. Our registered nurses provide personalized and reliable care advice 24 hours a day, seven days a week. They have an average of more than 15 years’ experience in patient care so you can feel comfortable talking to them. The nurses are supported by doctors and advanced technology so you can count on getting clinically safe information. If you prefer communicating through the internet, you can chat with a nurse online in real time.

Diet And Nutrition
Eating a healthy diet isn’t always easy. It can be hard to find recipes or to even know what’s considered a healthy diet for you and your family.

Blue Health Connection is there for you with resources to help you learn more about good nutrition. The Nutrition Wise feature offers weekly articles about diet and nutrition, and includes recipes and information about healthy eating and food safety. In addition, the Relay Clinical Patient Education feature, formerly the Clinical Resource System, has great articles to help you eat right for specific medical conditions, such as diabetes, or manage your weight. Want to talk to someone about your diet concerns? Call Blue Health Connection at 1-888-258-3432 and speak with a registered nurse or go to Blue Health Connection and chat online with one.

All you need is a pair of sneakers and a walking plan. Our WalkingWorks® Program gives you the encouragement to start, with plans for adding walking to your daily routine and setting personal walking goals.
