Value-Added Services

Blue Cross and Blue Shield of New Mexico covers more than just standard Medicaid benefits. We also offer extra services to help keep you and your family healthy. These are called Value-Added Services (VAS). Call Member Services to find out if you are eligible for some or all of these services.

Get VAS at No Cost to You

BCBSNM supports your health. Your plan includes many VAS at no cost to you. Here are just some of the extra services offered to members. 

Physical Health Services

  • Virtual Health Partners – Members can get 24/7 virtual access to health experts, tools and live events. These can help them modify their diet, fitness and lifestyle to get healthy.
