| Preventive Care Coverage |
| At Coventry Health Care, we encourage members to receive preventive care services. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) provides for specific preventive services when provided by participating providers to be covered at 100 percent. Our fully insured group health plans already provide coverage for many of those preventive services. Starting on October 1, 2010, for all new plans and for renewing plans that are not grandfathered plans, as of the plan's effective date/renewal date, members who use our network providers will receive preventive care services paid at 100 percent.

Coventry is Going Green
|
Effective immediately, Coventry will be communicating with the benefit administrators of our covered groups electronically. We see this as a necessary step in the right direction toward less waste and greater efficiency. An electronic kit ("E-Kit") will be emailed within 30-45 days after the group's effective/renewal date. The E-Kit will contain important documents and links to online information regarding their coverage, including:
-
Executed Group Agreement/Contract
-
Benefit Schedules and Riders
-
Evidence of Coverage (HMO), and/or
-
Certificate of Insurance (PPO)
For more information on this process, please contact your assigned Account Manager. |
