It’s important to get the support you need when it comes to your health. When you’re enrolled in the Publix Blue Cross and Blue Shield (BCBS) PPO Plan, care management benefits can help you get and stay on the road to good health.
Effective Jan. 1, 2015, BCBS replaced Carewise Health as Publix’s partner in offering care management benefits to eligible associates and their family members enrolled in the BCBS PPO Plan. The new BCBS Health Management programs are free and confidential. These programs offer coaching services for certain chronic conditions, maternity, and significant ongoing health conditions arising from a serious accident or sudden illness.
“Part of our commitment to providing comprehensive, affordable health care to our associates and their family members includes evaluating our providers,” said Vice President of Benefits Administration Linda Kane. “We want to ensure our programs offer valuable benefits with premier customer service, and we believe BCBS is the best choice for providing our BCBS PPO Plan enrollees with care management benefits.”
Associates who were enrolled in a Carewise Health program should have received a welcome letter and brochure from BCBS in November 2014.
If you or a family member are eligible for or become eligible for one of the BCBS Health Management programs, BCBS will contact you. If you have any questions, please call BCBS at 1-866-PUBLIX5 (1-866-782-5495).
