07/19/2007   Washington State Standard Health Questionnaire revised

The Washington State Standard Health Questionnaire (SHQ) was revised effective July 22. The two main changes to the SHQ include revisions to Part I. A Exceptions:

  • Exception 7, regarding losing coverage from a group that is exempt from COBRA, now includes church plans.
  • Exception 8, a new rule with this revision, now includes Basic Health Plan disenrollment with the condition of 24-month continuous coverage and a 90-day window.

Since the first week of July, we have included the two-page WSHIP inserts in all Regence Individual sales packets. A supply of the inserts has also been provided to the Sales Executive team, Individual Marketing team, Membership team and all front-desk locations in Washington. However, the complete SHQ dated 07/22/2007 can be found on our website. Please begin to use this immediately.

If you have questions regarding the SHQ Exception changes, please talk to your Regence Consumer Sales contact.
