Aetna - CHI Health
by Tara Johnson 06 Dec '24

06 Dec '24

SLEBC Insured - I wanted to send a quick note as SLEBC has been notified that CHI has officially opted to not renew their contract with Aetna. This is still an ongoing situation and with many similar situations, we have seen agreements reached after the 'deadline'. We will continue to provide updates as received on the status. Meritain has provided a list of providers who have opted to negotiate directly with CHI linked below. Members who are impacted by this negotiation should have already received notification from CHI regarding the potential to be OON.

We have never encountered this error with SurveyMonkey and have used it for the last 5 contracts. More soon!

We are thankful that we do not have any major plan design changes to our medical, dental or vision plans. You will find slight increases in the medical rates due to the increasing costs seen with current inflation along with plan usage. As a self-funded health plan, this is a direct reflection of you being mindful of your utilization and using the tools available to make good healthcare decisions. We encourage you (and your family) to check in with your primary care provider for your annual preventative visit and continue to work toward being the healthiest you!

Happy Monday! If you are part of the SLEBC Medical plan, I have a few items to update you on. Please forward this email to anyone who is on the plan that may have interest, i.e. spouse, adult children, etc.. * We have a NEW URL to access your claims and plan information: SLEBC.myaptahealth.com<http://www.SLEBC.myaptahealth.com> * Secondly, you may have received mail from Magellan RX Management. Magellan RX Management has merged with Prime Therapeutics. Additional details regarding upcoming changes are listed below.

Effective Oct. 1, Magellan Rx Management will become “Prime Therapeutics Management” and on Sept. 16 Magellan Rx Pharmacy will become “Prime Therapeutics Pharmacy.” You will receive additional information from their pharmacy if you currently use its services. * What this means for you: * On Sept. 16, the new website will be primetherapeutics.com. At that time, you will be able to access your new member portal by visiting wprimetherapeutics.com/member<http://www.primetherapeutics.com/member> and using the same login that you use today. Feel free to bookmark these websites for future use. * Please note that if your plan references magellanrx.com in its Summary of Benefits or other plan documents, starting on Sept. 16 you should instead go to your new member portal at primetherapeutics.com/member. * All current mail order medications should continue to be serviced with no disruption. * The phone number on your ID card remains the same. * I have attached both our SLEBC SBC and Benefit Guide for the 2024 calendar year.
