How to Pay Your BCBSGA Bill Online

Paying your health insurance premiums on time each month is crucial for maintaining active coverage. BCBSGA makes paying your bill quick and easy through their online payment portal. This article will explain the different ways you can pay your BCBSGA bill online.

What’s Included in Your BCBSGA Bill

Your monthly bill from BCBSGA includes the premium for your health insurance plan. This is the set amount you pay each month to keep your policy active. The premium you pay depends on the individual or family plan you enrolled in.

In addition to your premium your bill may also include

• Deductible: The amount you have to pay out of pocket before your insurance starts to pay for things. Many plans have an annual deductible.

• Copays – A fixed amount you pay when receiving care, like doctor visits or prescriptions. Copays apply even after meeting your deductible.

• Coinsurance – Your share of costs after reaching your deductible. This is usually a percentage of the service cost.

You can better plan for your annual health care costs if you know what’s included in your bill.
