Our pharmacy program, powered by our pharmacy benefit manager, CarelonRx, is grounded in a steadfast commitment to whole health and a simplified experience. This whole-health approach addresses the big picture of medical and pharmacy costs and outcomes.

The Power Of Integration

It’s vital for a health plan to coordinate medical and pharmacy when making clinical and coverage decisions. A PBM that only has visibility into the drug claims they process won’t see the entire picture, which means they cannot fully manage pharmacy spend. Through our integrated approach, we’re able to see data and manage across medical and pharmacy benefits to improve health outcomes and lower total cost of care.

Your large group clients can support their employees with supplemental health plans from Anthem. They reduce the impact of out-of-pocket expenses when employees face a health emergency.

An unexpected illness or injury can cause financial hardship. We offer three supplemental health benefit plans to help:

   Accident

   Critical Illness

   Hospital Indemnity

Plans immediately pay lump-sum benefits that employees can use as they see fit, including for medical costs or daily living expenses during recovery. Supplemental health plans also include:

   Automatic notification of benefits when members with Anthem medical and Anthem supplemental health benefits have an eligible claim.

   No pre-existing condition exclusions for covered accidents or illnesses that occur after the effective coverage date.

   Enrollment with no medical evidence needed.

   Perpetual guaranteed issue during open enrollment and ongoing annual enrollments.

Supplemental health plans can be offered as employer paid or voluntary employee-paid plans. 

For some of your clients, balancing rising health costs with a competitive benefits program can be challenging. With our voluntary benefits and enrollment services, your clients can attract and retain the best employees — while keeping costs in check. That’s because our specialty benefit plans can also be sold as voluntary options — paid 100% by employees through payroll deduction.

With voluntary specialty plans, we’ll even help your clients conduct enrollment. In person or online, our Voluntary Solutions team will walk your clients’ employees through all their new benefits and services, for maximum enrollment participation. Available for large group clients.
