WellCard™
WHAT
IS IT?
The Medical WellCard™ is an ideal supplement to a current insurance
plan and perfect for anyone who does not have medical coverage. There
are no waiting periods, no limits on visits or services, no deductibles,
no age limits, no claim forms, and all pre-existing conditions are
covered.
The Medical
WellCard™ allows you to access over 350,000 providers nationwide.

HOW
TO FIND A DOCTOR?
WellCard™ medical providers are participants of national Preferred
Provider Organizations (PPOS). Click "Search
Providers " tab and follow the prompts.
HOW
DOES IT WORK?
Participating doctors’ offices have access to eligibility verification
and contract pricing information using the toll free telephone number
displayed on your WellCard™. The doctor’s office calls the toll free
number, keys in the WellCard™ member ID, the doctor’s tax identification,
the appropriate CPT code(s) and the doctor’s usual and customary fee
for that service. The WellCard™ allowable amount is reported to the
caller. The WellCard™ member pays the reported educed fee at the time
of service. Participating doctors have an agreement that they will
not bill the member for the difference between their usual and customary
fee and the reduced reported fee.
HOW
TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT?
To receive medical care, just call a PPO providor and schedule an
appointment. Tell the office that you belong to the PPO whose name
and logo appears on your Medical WellCard™. Your doctor will want
to see your WellCard™ ID card so be sure to bring it with you each
time you have an appointment. The first time you have an appointment
with the doctor also bring the “fulfillment document” you received
with your WellCard™ registration. This contains important information
that will help your doctor's office to process your payment.
HOW
TO BE AN INFORMED PATIENT?
WellCard™ believes that informed patients make better healthcare decisions.
