Coverage for Midsize and Large Businesses
What’s New for 2023*
- Univera Healthy Baby Connection - Univera Healthy Baby Connection is a comprehensive case management program offered to pregnant women and their children. Embracing a proactive outreach strategy, our Care Management team will help them navigate the health care system – with a focus on early intervention, prenatal education, and personalized support before, during, and after pregnancy.
- Signature Suite Updates - We’re focused on catering to the needs of businesses in an ever-changing market; that’s why we’re enhancing our popular Signature Suite with increased plan flexibility, providing even more ways to balance cost control and out-of-pocket expenses.
- Acupuncture at PCP Cost Share - An additional PCP cost share option to help make acupuncture care more accessible and affordable will now be available across our Signature Suite of plans (subject to deductible, where applicable).
- Active&Fit ExerciseRewardsTM - We will be updating our Active&Fit ExerciseRewards program to count a fitness center visit as two points. Members that track their steps will continue to earn one point for 10,000+ steps in a day. Members are rewarded once they earn 100 points each 6-month period for working out at a qualifying fitness center or on their own** through their tracked steps. Maximum of two points per day will be allowable.
* Subject to DFS approval.
** At-home workouts will not count as a workout; only the steps tracked during a workout may count toward rewards.
Medicare Plans
With multiple plan types and options, we have coverage that’s right for every group and every member. Our network gives you access to more of the best doctors, specialists, and hospitals in your neighborhood and around the globe than any other. We’ve also negotiated great rates with these providers, which means everyone pays less for a higher quality of care.
- Local 39-County Network: More than 98% provider participation within these counties, including all major hospitals and strategic physician groups
- National Network: In-network benefits with more than 1,200,000 practitioners and 5,600 hospitals throughout the United States through the PHCS/Multiplan system
Also, we know that going to the doctor’s office isn’t always an option, so our plans allow employees to access care and support right from home through telehealth, telemedicine, and the Wellframe® app. Learn more about these convenient tools in Tools & Resources.
