Letter from Chris Gorey
As summer draws near, we are reminded that the second busiest renewal month of the year is upon us: July. As renewal decisions are considered, we appreciate your role describing our offerings, including enhancements made to the products, tools and resources available to our members.
Our members have access to person-focused online tools and resources that enable them to quickly understand their benefits and evaluate treatment options specific to their health care needs and plan provisions. These tools allow them to make informed health care decisions.
In this edition of Producer News, you'll read about our new Health Savings Account (HSA) integration with HealthEquity®. Employers interested in HSAs will welcome this enhancement of our Regence HSA Healthplan 2.0SM offering. HealthEquity also provides 24/7 access to specialists—personal attention that will be especially important to employers and employees new to an HSA.
Continuous enhancements to myRegence.com provide our members with state-of-the art personalized tools and resources to support everyday health care decisions:
- Members can create their own customizable Personal Health Record to track health information and medical history.
- Our Treatment Cost Estimator returns an estimated personal cost based on a member's actual benefits and progress toward meeting their deductible.
- My Community offers a nationwide online forum to interact in real time with health experts and other Regence members.
- Healthy activities earn Rewards points toward gift cards redeemable with over 300 vendors.
These and many other features help our members understand and use their benefits wisely. If you haven't visited the site or if it's been awhile, I invite you to log on as Our Guest (using the guest pass code "OURGUEST") or contact your Sales or Account Executive to see what's new and learn more about the unique personalized support and education available on our award-winning website.
As you advise groups and individuals regarding those July renewals, know that a Regence partnership means a commitment to enabling a person-focused and sustainable health care system. Thank you for your partnership.
Regards,
Chris Gorey
