How to Read Your Wellpoint Member ID Card

Your Wellpoint member ID card includes important information you’ll need when visiting your doctor, filling prescriptions, or contacting customer service. This guide explains each section of your card so you know exactly where to find key details.

 

1. Member Name

Your Member Name appears near the top left of the card, usually written as:

<MemFIRST><MemLAST>

This is the official name associated with your Wellpoint health plan and should match your Medicare or insurance records.

 

2. Member ID Number

Look for the line labeled Member ID:

This number identifies you as a Wellpoint member.

You’ll need your Member ID whenever you:

  • Fill a prescription at the pharmacy

  • Contact Wellpoint Member Services

  • Access online services such as livehealthonline.com

This section tells you:

  • Your insurance company: Wellpoint Insurance Company

  • Coverage and network rules associated with your plan

 

4. Primary Care Physician (PCP)

 

The PCP: field shows the doctor assigned as your Primary Care Physician.
