2024 is right around the corner, and with it comes a new allocation of preventive care benefits for groups with Jan. 1 effective dates. Most Asuris plans include comprehensive preventive care benefits—such as annual wellness exams, immunizations, age-appropriate screenings, and services for pregnant members and children—with no out-of-pocket cost to members when received from in-network providers. Yet many members decline to take advantage of all the no-cost preventive care included with their plan.

You can help: Please share the online Asuris preventive care list with your employer groups, and encourage them to share the information with their employees. This online resource provides insights about the importance of preventive care and a detailed listing of all no-cost preventive care that’s included with groups’ plans.

To help your employer groups and their covered employees learn more about all of their health plan benefits, urge them to create an account on asuris.com or download the Asuris app.

Creating an account unlocks valuable features that enable members to have a personalized experience with their health plan. When signed in to their account, members can access the following resources:

• Find care: This enables members to search and schedule appointments with in-network doctors and specialists locally—and nationwide when they’re away from home.
• Estimate costs: Members can save money by comparing costs for tests, treatments and common procedures from multiple providers. They can also get personalized real-time out-of-pocket cost estimates based on their deductible and out-of-pocket maximum.
• Telehealth: Members can access convenient, cost-effective high-quality care for nonurgent needs and behavioral health.
• Nurse line: Members rely on Advice24 for guidance and support for everyday health concerns. It's a convenient and quick way to get support from a registered nurse for nonemergency health issues and questions that might otherwise lead to unnecessary doctor and ER visits. Advice24 is embedded in most fully insured group plans and available as a buy-up to ASO groups.
• Wellness: Asuris Motivate™ provides personalized tools and resources designed to guide each member to improved health. Program enhancements effective Jan. 1, 2024, include wellness incentive rewards for participating employees’ eligible spouses or domestic partners. And, small groups on metallic plans earn a premium reduction of 3% for each enrolled employee who completes a Health Assessment and biometric screening. Access toolkits here: Groups 51+ | Small Group
• Medication cost savings: Members can research the efficacy and costs of prescription and over-the-counter drugs, and compare brand-names vs. generics before buying.
• Employee Assistance Program (EAP): Our EAP offers early intervention and support services to help members quickly and privately resolve issues—such as stress, depression, anxiety, alcohol and drug abuse, absenteeism, insomnia and problems at work—before they become bigger problems. The EAP is embedded in small group metallic plans and available as an option for groups of 51+.
• Asuris Advantages: This comprehensive discount program provides savings on over-the-counter health and wellness products, fertility services, hearing aids and more. Asuris Advantages partner Active&Fit Direct offers access to 12,500+ fitness centers (including participating 24 Hour Fitness locations) nationwide for just $28 per month and has a $0 enrollment fee when members join by Feb. 29, 2024.
