We maintained enrollment in both dental and vision with the move to Anthem, and quite frankly, with very little disruption to our members.
For associates it's almost a one-stop shop. When they enroll in medical, dental, and vision they've got all the resources there at their hands. One call to Anthem, and I can answer their questions and ensure that they're meeting the needs that they have.
Ossip Optometry & Ophthalmology has 43 locations across Indiana and Illinois. With 74 Optometrists and 2 Ophthalmologists we are always looking for ways to enhance efficiencies and improve patient care...
Anthem's Clinical Coordination feature is a fantastic opportunity for Optometrists to become more involved in addressing the total well-being of their patients. It allows us to be viewed by our patients in a way that’s similar to how they view their primary care physician.
From a practical perspective it has added a lot of value because it allows us to double-check patient data against our own Electronic Health Records system. We can check patient medications and other things that patients tend to forget, such as dosages or pre-existing conditions. This allows us to provide more thorough care to our patients.
The tool is also really easy to use. There are no steps in the process that might hinder productivity or slow down the delivery of care. As medical professionals, we usually see those challenges every day, but not with this tool. It has proved very easy to integrate with.
MoreLess"Optometry serves as an entry point for not only vision related issues, but also into general medicine. The general public visits optometrist offices more frequently than any other part of the healthcare system. As such, easy two-way communication between Optometrists and other health care providers should help to create better patient outcomes...
I’ve had the pleasure of using Anthem’s Whole Health Connection program, and to me, this program is a “no-brainer.” Although the health information shared is limited at this time, I love being able to verify a patients past and current medical treatment. Most health care providers will agree that patients are not the best historians when it comes their own medical history/treatment. Because the eye and body are intimately connected, we optometrists can become a viable option to be the profession that acts as the gateway/referral source to other health professions when needed."

When I contacted my employer’s human resources department to let them know, I was reminded that my company provided each employee with short-term disability insurance through Anthem Life that would help me pay my bills while I was out of work. Because I was unable to work or drive, this benefit enabled me to enroll in an online course toward my degree and keep moving forward in the apprentice program sponsored by my employer, without falling behind my peers.
My employer completed the paperwork, my doctor filled out the medical information, and shortly thereafter, I received my first check. The entire process was very easy and the claim was processed quickly.
