06/02/2008  Letter from Scott Kreiling

Groups of all sizes have exciting new self-managed options starting today!

We are happy to announce that the quoting of our revolutionary new product, MotivateSM, and the expanded EmbarkSM and VantageSM products has begun!

Embark, Vantage and Motivate are different from traditional health products because they're self-managed plans—a revolutionary new category of coverage that promotes healthy living and provides wellness resources, all with the goal of helping members make informed health care choices.

Embark provides predictability through Up-Front benefits for deductible-free access to office visits as well as radiology and laboratory services. Vantage offers administrative simplicity through a single deductible and coinsurance structure. Both plans give the employer design flexibility to meet their group plan objectives. Also, the member is free to choose any provider. All providers—even non-participating ones—fall into one of three Categories. The member's share of the cost depends on the Category they choose.

We introduced Embark and Vantage last year to groups of 2 to 99 employees. Due to their overwhelming success, we're now happy to offer them to groups of all sizes.

Like Embark and Vantage, Motivate provides design flexibility for employers, provider choice for members and valuable wellness features for everyone. But it has an exciting and unique twist—instead of just encouraging wellness, Motivate offers Web-based rewards to members who take an active role in their health.

A host of hard-copy materials designed to help you sell these plans successfully are available from your local Sales contact:

  • Product brochures
  • Benefit summaries
  • Product flyers/renewal flyer
  • Online enrollment/eBilling flyer
  • Online enrollment set-up checklist
You can also find the following resources on our public site and on Agent Center:

  • Client presentation
  • Dual option guidelines
  • Benefit summaries
  • Product Comparison Tool
  • Agent training presentations
  • Frequently asked questions

Recent enhancements

  • The Agent Toolkit delivers the resources described above. To access the Toolkit, go to Products and Plans, Group, then Embark, Vantage or Motivate.
  • We are updating quoting forms to include Motivate. These forms include the Group Master Application and the Application for Enrollment/Change.

Sincerely,

Scott Kreiling
