FAQs:
How Do I Get a Replacement ID Card?
Call the Care Coordinators at 866.360.7926 or visit your member portal at www.cityofsavannahhealthplan.com.
Why Did I Receive this Bill?
All members and dependents will receive an Explanation of Benefits (EOB) from UMR for the processing of all medical claims or you may access on www.cityofsavannahhealthplan.com. Review all EOBs before paying a bill from a provider to ensure the claim has been processed with the insurance. Review the bottom of the EOB as you may need to verify with a Care Coordinator that you do not have secondary insurance. If you need assistance or have a question about a claim, contact the Care Coordinators at 866.360.7926.
Can I use my Flexible Spending Account (FSA) medical spending to pay for prescriptions?
You can spend FSA funds on prescriptions, as well as over-the-counter medicines with a doctor's prescription or letter of medical necessity. Reimbursements for insulin are allowed without a prescription. FSAs may also be used to cover costs of medical equipment such as crutches, bandages, and diagnostic devices including blood testing devices. For the full list of eligible expenses click here .
Why does my Prescription Require a Pre-Authorization?
Prescriptions for certain medications require a prior authorization, also known as a coverage review, to ensure the drug is safe, clinically appropriate and cost effective for your condition. The review uses both formulary and clinical guidelines to determine if the plan will pay for certain medicines. If your prescription requires a prior authorization, your doctor must submit a request for coverage review for approval.
