Simply show your Alberta Blue Cross® Identification card as proof of coverage when ordering your prescription, and your pharmacist will take care of submitting the claim for payment.
  2. Reimbursement: Prescription drugs may also be paid for directly and then claimed for reimbursement on a Health Services Claim Form or online through the member website.
