OneExchange Mailing—Special Populations

A letter will be sent early next week to small populations covered by OneExchange who historically may have had dental, vision and behavioral health benefits through HealthFlex (e.g., Medicare-eligible due to disability or Medicare Secondary Payer Small Employer Exception). As of 2016, all ancillary benefits through HealthFlex will be terminated for individuals not enrolled in a HealthFlex medical/pharmacy plan. Participants can purchase dental and/or vision coverage through OneExchange; behavioral health services are covered by Medicare/Medicare Supplement.
