1 The Right Idea Save money while you help your health Meet your advocates A case for generics Easy ways to lower your spending one TO one NEWSLETTER FOR MEDICARE ADVANTAGE MEMBERS A SUNNY AFTERNOON NEAR STANLEY
2 ONE TO ONE Welcome to Our Commitment At Blue Cross of Idaho, we take a special interest in those who live in our state. That s why we ve been providing health insurance to the people of Idaho for more than six decades. During this time, we ve demonstrated a long-standing commitment to serving our clients one that is supported with a comprehensive range of Medicare Advantage coverage options and valuable resources that help simplify the more complex aspects of health insurance. This very publication is presented to you as a tool to help you manage your health and control your spending on healthcare services. Another good resource is your Evidence of Coverage. We recommend members spend time reviewing the document to better understand what their coverage includes. We hope you fi nd this issue to be informative and useful, and that you see this publication as a tangible reminder that we re committed to providing smart, cost-conscious coverage to the Idaho community. KNOW MORE Term to Learn: DISEASE MANAGEMENT Disease management is a smart way for people who have long-term conditions and chronic illnesses to improve their quality of life. It uses proven medical knowledge (evidence-based medicine) to help members stay healthy, live longer and spend less on healthcare. Congestive heart failure, diabetes, asthma and low back pain are considered chronic conditions because they cannot typically be cured for good. If you suffer from ongoing lower back pain, our online Back Pain Center shows you ways to manage your symptoms by making simple lifestyle changes. On our Web site, select Health Library, then choose Disease Management. There, you will fi nd the Back Pain Center along with information on all our disease management programs. 2
3 4 Facts About Generics Why pay more for your prescriptions? 1 Generic drugs are safe. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) must approve all drugs, including generics, for safety and effectiveness. 2 Generic drugs are reliable. A generic drug is a copy of a brand-name drug. It uses the same active chemicals and works the same way. 3 Generic drugs are well-made. Both brandname and generic drug factories must meet the same quality standards. The FDA will not let drugs be made in low-quality factories. 4 Generic drugs can save you money. How much money? By using generics instead of brand-name drugs, consumers typically save between 20 percent and 80 percent. True Blue HMO members who have Part D coverage have access to low-cost generic drugs in the gap. Ask your doctor or pharmacist if a generic option is available for your medicines. medication update Blue Cross of Idaho encourages the use of generic drugs as a safe and usually less costly alternative to brand-name drugs. Below are brand-name drugs that have recently been released in a generic form. Brand Name Generic Name Medication Use Mirapex Pramipexole Parkinson s Disease Flomax Tamsulosin Men s Health DISCOUNT SERVICES BlueExtras! SM Helps You Save Green We believe getting healthy shouldn t be expensive. That s why we offer the BlueExtras! program, which gives discounts on a variety of services. With BlueExtras!, you qualify for special rates at fi tness centers and gyms across Idaho. The program also includes signifi cant savings on hearing aids and hearing tests, plus discounts for LASIK surgery or eye care services above what is covered by your plan. Best of all, saving is simple: Just show your member ID card to receive the discounts. For details, go to bcidaho.com/medicare and, under the Wellness Tools link, select Discount Services. There, you will fi nd the list of our partners. 3
4 Smart Ways to SAVE 4 simple steps can make you one savvy healthcare consumer. 1 Understand your benefits. As a member of Blue Cross of Idaho, you shouldn t have to worry about unexpected healthcare expenses. Refer to your Evidence of Coverage to fully understand what services are covered. This document lists your complete benefits and can explain, in detail, every limitation and exclusion. To request an additional copy of your Evidence of Coverage, call customer service at See your doctor for an annual physical. If you think the only time you should see your doctor is when you re ill, 4
5 think again. Establishing a good rapport with your doctor while you re healthy can make a difference in your future health. Many common health conditions, including high blood pressure and high cholesterol, don t have any obvious symptoms. By getting tested regularly for them, you can start fixing them quickly. But if left untreated, they can develop into serious issues and lead to more complex and costlier conditions such as heart disease and stroke. Plus, if you ever have an emergency or suddenly become very ill, wouldn t you want to work with a doctor who already knows you and your medical history? Here s another good reason to see your doctor: As a member of one of Blue Cross of Idaho s Medicare Advantage programs, you have coverage for your annual exam for just the cost of one copayment! 3 Get recommended preventive care. Like annual physicals, preventive care is a good way to stave off serious conditions. Cancer screenings like mammograms and colonoscopies as well as immunizations, such as the flu shot and the pneumonia vaccine, help prevent you from becoming dangerously ill. Review Blue Cross of Idaho s preventive guidelines by visiting bcidaho.com/medicare and selecting Preventive Guidelines from under the Health Library link. 4 Know where to go for help. Health and healthcare coverage is complex. It s natural to have questions or concerns from time to time. When you do, speak up and ask for answers. Your doctor is a good resource if you want to learn more about your health conditions or medical treatment. Your pharmacist can answer questions about prescriptions and over-the-counter medication, including side effects and interactions between drugs. For general health questions, call our Nurse Advice Line, at Our customer advocates are available to help you find answers about coverage and benefits. And, if they can t answer your query, they ll direct you to the right place. Lastly, don t forget that there s a wealth of information available online at bcidaho.com/medicare. SCREENING OPTION Medicare now covers HIV testing at no cost to you. As always, you are responsible for coinsurance or an office visit copayment anytime you see your doctor. Ask your doctor if this testing is right for you. 5
