My Account (Member Portal)

If you have forgotten your username, select the Forgot Username link on the log in page. You will be prompted to enter your member ID, group number, date of birth and gender. If your answers match the answers you gave in registration, your username will be displayed. A confirmation email will also be sent to the email we have on file for you.

Typically, the problem is that the username and password are not being entered correctly. Both are case sensitive, so if your username is JDoe, it will be incorrect if you enter it as jdoe.

You will be locked out after five unsuccessful attempts to log in. If you get locked out, request your username and password by:

• Looking up your username by selecting the Forgot Username link on the My Account home page.
• You will be asked for your member ID, group number, date of birth and gender.
• If you don't know your member ID and group number, please check your member ID card or contact Member Service at the number on your member ID card.

Registration for My Account follows these steps:

• First, complete the registration form. Be sure to have your member ID card handy since you will need your group ID and member number.
• After completing the registration form, you will be able to log into My Account immediately and view your account information.
• You will receive an email verification asking you to confirm that your email address is correct. This will enable you to send secure email to Member Services if you have questions about your claims, benefits or any of the other information you find on My Account.
• As an extra step to ensure the privacy of your information, you will also receive a verification letter in the mail at the address on record with CareFirst.

We take the following steps to ensure that your registration is valid: The registration requires information from your member ID card, which is private. Once you enter this information, it is validated against information in our files.

You will be able to log into My Account immediately after you register.

Additionally, you will receive an email asking you to confirm your email address. The email will go to the email address used when you register and will be the email address used to respond to any secure email you may send us in the future.

You will also receive a verification letter mailed to the address on file with CareFirst.

In order to use My Account, you must agree with the terms noted on the registration page. Agreeing to these terms is one way CareFirst ensures that all users of the site agree to accept the responsibility for protecting the information they have access to. If you don't agree to the Terms of Use, you will not be able to register for My Account or access your information online.

The information you enter on the registration screen must match the information in our internal systems—that is one way we ensure that only members can register. Please make sure you are using the member ID card for your medical coverage, not your vision or dental coverage.

If you receive this message, please call Member Services at the number on your ID card so that we can determine what is causing the problem. If you are still unable to register, please contact My Account Technical Support for assistance at 877-526-8390.

While CareFirst has taken several steps to ensure that your email reaches you, there are a few situations where you might not receive it:

• Check the email address in your profile to make sure it is correct. If your email has changed or you made a mistake entering it, please update it. The confirmation will be sent to the updated address.
• If your email address is correct, check your email folders to make sure that the message did not go into a "bulk" or other spam folder.
• If you used a company email address, the message may be blocked by your company's spam blocking software. If this is the case, you need to use a personal email address, not your company's.
• If you are using some type of spam blocker software which requires the sender to register. CareFirst is unable to reply to spam blocker registration requests.

It is important to verify your email address with CareFirst at the time of registration, since this is the address that will be used to reply to any secure email you send us.

Please contact the CareFirst Privacy Office at 410-308-8300 or 800-853-9236 or send an email to privacy.office@carefirst.com. Once we confirm that you did not register, we will immediately revoke online access to your information on My Account.
