and office visits. PPO Share Plans have benefits that cater towards
families and allows members access to immediate benefits for office visits,
preventive care and annual physical exams. The Individual Lumenos HSA
and HIA (Plus) allows individuals to receive benefits to stay healthy all
while keeping more control over their health care dollars. Blue Cross

access to the PPO network can mean substantial discounts in what you pay
for your health care, even before you meet your deductible.

directory.
Underwriting:
Anthem Blue
Cross has one of the easiest, most efficient underwriting teams in the industry.
The process is very fast if no medical records are needed. While
it is always a good idea to apply at least three weeks prior to the time
you need your new coverage to take effect, some applications that are done
online are approved by Anthem Blue Cross within 24 hours.
The
company does have the right to accept or decline any individual or family
application. Certain conditions may be waivered with a temporary rider
(usually for one to two years), or an indefinite rider. If you are
currently being treated for depression, anxiety, or high cholesterol, please
let us know before you apply so we can make sure there are no delays in
getting you covered.
Effective
dates:
The coverage can go into effect in as quickly as 24 hours, though you risk being declined if claims are submitted before the underwriting process is completed. You may request an effective date any time the date after you sign the application and 60 days later. This is very good for someone who does not have any present coverage and would like for benefits to begin right away. For those who are already covered, it is suggested that you maintain your current coverage in force until you have received notice from either eAZHealthInsurance or directly from Anthem Blue Cross that your coverage has been approved and is in force.
Your earliest possible effective date will be the day after Anthem Blue Cross has received all the necessary documents and information needed to process your application. Please note that you will be billed starting on your requested effective date, even if you have not yet been notified that you have been approved. Only the initial premium payment may be charged to a credit card. You may call Anthem’s customer service unit to make that one-time credit card payment. Subsequent payments may be made by choosing online bill payment through the Anthem member portal, or by automatic withdrawals from your checking account. There are no fees associated with these payment options.
