Can I still get Blue Cross insurance while I'm on disability with EIA? I got a referral today for physio therapy but EIA doesn't cover the cost for it. (No physio places including the hospital do not take EIA insurance for physio therapy for the arm/hand. That's what the doctor told me.) I can't afford to pay out of pocket so I applied today for Blue Cross online but will that screw up my EIA? Please let me know because I can't find any information online. Thank you very much!

We're in the middle of all this as our daughter recently turned 18 and we're working on getting her adult services and funding set up.  
 
From what I understood, you can use the EIA disability health insurance like any other insurance program - they can be copays etc. But that was kinda second-hand info, so you'll need to check with your worker.

Can you still have Blue Cross if on EIA? My physio won't accept EIA insurance.

You should not need blue cross insurance for physio at the hospital . The hospital can bill directly to MB Health
