Benefits Tip – Insurance Cards for 2017: What to Expect

by   |  12.19.16  |  Announcements, Benefits

You will not receive new benefits cards related to your medical GPA, Benny, Discovery Benefits, or HSA Bank card UNLESS you switched from one plan to the other, HRA or HSA.

If you elected dental insurance, you will receive an insurance card from The Standard.  Along with the dental card, you will also receive a card for eye care coverage related to the new PolicyLink benefit offered with our new dental insurance.  The dental plan allows you to be reimbursed for up to $150 worth of vision expenses if you still have some of your dental annual maximum available.  That is what this card is for, it is not a separate vision insurance policy.
