UHC: Earn $$$ When Members Take the Health Risk Assessment

/in , , /by

It’s important to help Dual Special Needs Plans (DSNP) and Chronic Special Needs (CSNP) members take full advantage of their UnitedHealthcare plan. One way for them to do that is to take a Health Risk Assessment (HRA). Starting this spring, agents will be able to earn a one-time payment—$50—for  every DNSP- or CSNP- member completed HRA.

You still have time to sign up for the initial start of the program! Don’t Miss Out!!

Before you start, Read this FAQ.

How to get started

  • You must be an appointed, licensed and certified Medicare Solutions agent. Go to www.uhcJarvis.com to complete certifications.
  • You must complete the required 2019 Health Risk Assessment Training to be eligible for this program. Log on to Jarvis >Knowledge Center>Training>Certifications. In the ‘Electives’ section of LearnSource, choose 2019 Health Risk Assessment Training.
  • Once you complete the training, you will be auto-registered into the HRA website. You will receive an email from a company called ‘Revel’ with your registration login and password.

Once you’re registered

  • After completing a DSNP or CSNP enrollment application with the consumer, you can go to the Health Risk Assessment survey page on Jarvis.
  • Log on to the HRA and help the member take the 3-5 minute assessment.
  • Watch your email in the coming weeks for additional information.

Benefits for Members and Agents
Members: The HRA has several benefits, from providing a health summary that members can share with their primary care physician (PCP) to helping identify people who may be eligible for UnitedHealthcare programs that assist members with managing their health. It’s important to note that results from the HRA do not impact Medicare eligibility or costs.

Agents: Agents are invited to assist individuals enrolling in a DSNP or CSNP in completing an HRA. UnitedHealthcare is offering to pay agents a one-time $50 payment for each HRA completed when enrolling individuals in a DSNP or CSNP.

As always, complete a thorough needs assessment to ensure you are recommending the most appropriate UnitedHealthcare Medicare plan for the consumer.

Disclaimer
Not all DSNPs or CSNPs are eligible for this HRA payment program. If a member becomes ineligible due to a non-qualifying chronic condition, DSNP ineligibility or other reason, you may not be eligible for payment.

 

If you have questions about your specific market plans, please contact your CSM Sales Representative.

UHC’s New Authentication Process: LEAN & Jarvis Systems

/in , /by

Effective June 7th 2018, UnitedHealthcare will have an additional authentication process that will be required for an agent to access LEAN& Jarvis. This not only impacts every agent/agency that has a current login, but also any staff that uses the agents/agencies login for the website. Every person will be required to have their own Optum ID to access Jarvis.

Your Action

  • You MUST log in with or register for an Optum ID in order to access Jarvis and LEAN as of Thursday, June 7.
  • On June 7, you will be prompted to register when you go to Jarvis or LEAN. Simply set up an Optum ID and connect it to Jarvis and LEAN. If you have an existing Optum ID, sign in with that information and you can connect it to Jarvis and LEAN.
  • Note: You will NOT be able to register until June 7 if you don’t currently have an Optum ID.

What is Optum ID?

Optum ID is a secure, centralized identity management solution that allows you to use a single sign-on for any applications connected to Optum ID. It’s a secure double authentication process similar to processes you may be familiar with like a bank or credit card.

Why Optum ID?

  • It provides an extra level of authentication security.
  • It prevents unauthorized access to your accounts.
  • It simplifies the registration process by eliminating the need to register your Party ID and Agent ID separately.

 

Questions? Please reach out to your Cornerstone senior service representative for more information.
