Help protect your benefits

December 19, 2018

As we approach the end of the year, please be mindful of some service providers’ marketing campaigns to ‘use it or lose it’. These campaigns are designed to serve the providers who promote them; however, using benefits that are not medically necessary does not serve to protect the overall health of your plan.

Benefits like massage therapy and orthotics have balances that reset every benefit year to ensure proper care as necessary for plan members and their families. If it is not medically necessary, maximizing all of your benefits will negatively impact the long-term sustainability of the benefits plan, and may affect everyone’s ability to access necessary benefits in the future. Therefore, your responsible use of the plan is in the best interests of yourself, your family and fellow plan members.
