Benefits, formulary pharmacy network, premium and /or copayments and co-insurance may change on January 1, 2013.The Network Health Insurance Corporation Contract is renewed annually, so enrollment in a plan cannot be guaranteed.

NetworkCares is a Coordinated Care Plan with a Medicare Advantage contract and contract with the Wisconsin Medicaid Program. This plan is available to anyone who has both Medical Assistance from the State and Medicare.

Network Cares has been approved by the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) to operate as a Special Needs Plan (SNP) until 2013/2014. NCQA’s approval is based on a review of NetworkCares Model of Care and is an indicator of compliance with CMS requirements. NCQA’s approval is not an endorsement by CMS and/or NCQA of NetworkCares or the quality of services provided by NetworkCares. NetworkCares will still need to be approved each year by CMS in order to operate. If you have any questions regarding our approval by the NCQA, please contact us at 1-800-378-5234.

Network Health Insurance Corporation (NHIC) contracts with a network of providers within the 14 county service area to provide Medicare-covered benefits. Our Network Medicare Advantage plans are open to Medicare beneficiaries eligible by age or disability in the plan’s service area. Our Network Medicare Platinum Plans provide reimbursement for all covered benefits regardless of whether they were received in-network, as long as they are medically necessary. With the exception of emergencies or urgent care, it may cost more to get care from out-of-network providers.

Individuals must have both Medicare Part A and Part B to enroll and continue to pay their Part B premiums, unless otherwise paid for by Medicaid or by another third party. Plan benefit maximum limitations, copayments and restrictions may apply. To qualify, you must be a resident of the service area and not have End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD).

Members may enroll only during certain times of the year. If you enroll in one of our Medicare Advantage Pharmacy plans, you must receive your Medicare prescription drug benefit through the plan. Eligible members must use network pharmacies to access their prescription drug benefit except under non-routine circumstances; quantity limitations and restrictions may apply. Our Network Medicare Advantage Pharmacy plans use a formulary, which is a list of preferred drugs covered by the plan.
