Blue Care Connection* (BCC) offers wellness programs to help those Blue Cross and Blue Shield of New Mexico (BCBSNM) members who want to quit smoking and/or lose weight, as well as manage or improve their overall health.
The Stop Smoking program helps you understand barriers to quitting, identify personal motivators, and learn about treatment options.
The Lose Weight program helps you set goals and learn about maintaining a healthy weight, activities to help reach goals, and healthy eating.
To sign up for the tobacco cessation and weight management programs, log in to Blue Access for Members and select Personal Health Manager; then under For Your Health, choose Stop Smoking or Lose Weight. Use Personal Health Manager (PHM) to access resources – personal coaching, online tools, and an AudioHealth Library®. There are discounts on programs, products, and services that encourage weight loss, exercise, and good nutrition.
Every time progress is reported in PHM, members earn Blue PointsSM redeemable for reward items**.
All basic services available through Blue Care Connection are confidential and there is no extra cost to BCBSNM members whose employers have selected this program as part of their health care benefits.
For more information about these programs, call Customer Service at the number on the back of your BCBSNM member ID card.
