Reminders for Medicare Advantage Group Retiree PPO plans and National Access Plus FAQ
Beginning January 1, 2024, Empire became Anthem. This article, published under the former brand, now applies to Anthem.
The Group Retiree Medicare Advantage membership is experiencing a high volume of enrollment, and as we continue to grow, we wanted to send these reminders for our PPO plans for Empire BlueCross BlueShield (Empire). Group Retiree Medicare Advantage memberships may include the National Access Plus benefit, which allows retirees to receive services from any provider, as long as the provider is eligible to receive payments from Medicare and accepts the member’s PPO plan. These PPO plans also offer benefits that original Medicare doesn’t cover, including an annual routine physical exam, hearing, vision, chiropractic care, acupuncture, LiveHealth Online* and SilverSneakers®.*
If you are already part of our Medicare Advantage PPO network, thank you. The attached FAQ will be helpful as you grow your practice and serve members who may be new to our Group Retiree PPO plans.
