Common questions

What should I do if part of my claim has been paid by another plan or government program (e.g. Senior Eyeglass program for Manitoba residents over age 65)?

To submit a claim that has been partially paid by another carrier or the government program:

  • Respond "Yes" to the question: "Has a portion of this expense been paid by another policy or a government program?". This field is required even if the amount paid was zero.
  • Enter the amount paid by the other plan(s) under "Other Plan(s) Paid", "Government Paid", or both, depending on who paid a portion of your claim. The amount entered should reflect what is shown on the Explanation of Benefits (EOB) provided by the other plan.

I entered wrong information. How can I correct it?

Click the Back button to go back to make any corrections. Ensure all information is correct before submitting your claim.

4
Do I need to include a standard claim form with my uploaded claim document?

Only specialty claim forms are required.

3
What does Queued mean?

Queued means your claim is being held for processing. This has happened because you have a claim in Audit status. When a claim is selected for audit, the system places a temporary hold on all subsequent claims. Once Manitoba Blue Cross receives the requested receipt(s) for your Audited claim, all Queued claims will be released for processing.

8
When will my claim be processed?

Claims are processed in the order in which they are received.

What kinds of claims can I submit online?

You may submit any claim as long as the expense:

  • was incurred in Canada

  • is for you, or
  • is for your spouse or dependents (provided they have already claimed through their primary plan, if applicable).

How far back can I claim?

The claim limitation period indicates the deadline to submit health or dental claims for the prior benefit year and can vary based on your plan. Refer to the Claim Submission Deadline in Coverage.

How do I submit a claim for my spouse or dependent(s) covered by another plan?

  • Respond "Yes" to the question: "Has a portion of this expense been paid by another policy or a government program?". This field is required even if the amount paid was zero.
  • Enter the amount paid by the other plan(s) under "Other Plan(s) Paid", "Government Paid", or both, depending on who paid a portion of your claim. The amount entered should reflect what is shown on the Explanation of Benefits (EOB) provided by the other plan.

If your provider is not listed:

  • Verify the name of the service provider entered matches the service provider shown on your receipt
  • Try limiting your search to only one or two fields
  • Try entering a partial name, using only some letters of each word per field

If you still cannot find your service provider, select "Can't find my provider" and upload your claim instead.

2
What if I have coverage under more than one certificate?

If a person is a member of more than one plan, the adjudication priority is as follows:

  • The employer plan where the member is an active full-time employee
  • The employer plan where the member is an active part-time employee
  • The employer plan where the member is a retiree
  • The individual plan that a member has purchased on their own
  • The plan where the person is covered as a dependent

  • Try limiting your search to only one or two fields
  • Try entering a partial name, using only some letters of each word per field

If you still cannot find your pharmacy, select "Can't find your provider?" and upload your claim instead.

  • If you have benefits through an employer or group, it is recommended that you contact your plan administrator to update your account.
  • If you have purchased benefits through Manitoba Blue Cross or an agent, please submit your written request to Manitoba Blue Cross.

*Provided the change is submitted within 30 days, coverage will be effective as of date of eligibility (e.g. marriage date, birth date). If the change is submitted outside this time frame, coverage will become effective after three full months in accordance with the enrollment rules of your plan.
