Voice skill for Amazon Alexa and Google Home
Confused about your coverage? Ask Alexa or Google Home for answers.
Let’s be honest. Insurance is complex. To make it easier to understand, we developed the My Capital Blue Cross skill for your Alexa and Google Home devices.
Once the skill is enabled, say Alexa or Hey Google, open “My Capital Blue Cross” to your Amazon or Google smart speaker to start the skill.
Understand your healthcare documents
Sometimes your healthcare benefits and programs aren’t quite clear, but now Document Assistant can help. Get clarity without having to pick up the phone to call member services.
Look for the blue megaphone on your documents to know what terms and/or phrases are voice activated.
Learn about how specific terms and special benefits work that could save you money.
