"Take Action" to Fight High-Cost Claims
-
ESHCA analyzes data on health insurance spend to ensure benefits are maximized. The 2021 strategy can be broken into 3 key steps. ESCHA encourages all members and their member-spouse to participate in the following:
1) Use Your Preventative Services ($200 incentive)
-
Annual Physical ($0 Copay); Dental and Vision (100% allowable rate)
-
Preventative services are the first line of defense to combat "high-cost" claims that drive high premiums.
-
There is a $200 Annual Physical Incentive offered to the member and the member-spouse. Click here for details!
2) Register for MyVisitNow (virtual urgent care) - collect your $25 incentive
-
MyVisitNow is a virtual urgent care service. Appointments are conducted using your cellphone, computer, or tablet.
-
Appointments can be done on a jobsite during a break or in the privacy of your home 24/7. Not only is it convenient but it is offered at a $0 copay.
-
Annually, 50% of our Emergency Room spend is deemed unnecessary (MVP). ER services are expensive for members ($250 copay) and the health insurance plan. Several hundred-thousand dollars can be saved if members utilize this service.
-
Incentive - click here and go to "Register Now!!!", email Patrick a screenshot of the confirmation page!
-
Only 1 incentive can be sent to each member-family; either the member or the member spouse.
-
3) Monthly Online Newsletter - $25 incentive to register for the text message service
-
The newsletter provides monthly communication, coaching members on cost saving strategies.
-
The member and the member-spouse can register through an email sent to pflaherty@eshca.org.
-
This year, ESHCA added a text link service. A text link is sent for a quarterly (March, June, September, and December) newsletter. It will also be used to send emergency notices if unexpected changes are made to the health benefits such as happened with COVID.

Incentive - email Patrick your cellphone number.
