Under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, also known as Health Care Reform, members should not be charged any cost-sharing (i.e., copayments, coinsurance, and deductibles) once their annual limit has been met. These limits are based on the member's benefit plan. While individual and group benefit limits may be lower, they cannot exceed the following amounts: Individual: $6,350Family: $12,700Once members have reached their out-of-pocket maximum, providers should not collect additional cost-sharing. To verify if members have reached their out-of-pocket maximum, providers should use the Eligibility and Benefits Inquiry transaction on the NaviNet® web portal. However, due to our transition to a new operating platform for AmeriHealth Pennsylvania members, the process differs depending on whether the member has been migrated. The steps are outlined below.For migrated AmeriHealth Pennsylvania membersOnce on the Eligibility and Benefits Details screen, the member's current out-of-pocket expense (Accumulated Amount) and the maximum dollar limit (Threshold Amount) will be displayed at the bottom of the screen in the Benefit Accumulator section. Figure 1For non-migrated membersOnce on the Eligibility and Benefits Details screen, providers will first need to select the Additional Copays link to verify the copayment maximums and secondly select the Dollar Accumulators link to view the total out-of-pocket amount accumulated to date.Figure 2Figure 3Figure 4If your office is not yet NaviNet-enabled, you can sign up by going to NaviNet and selecting Sign Up at the top right.If you have any questions about this change, please call Customer Service at 1-800-275-2583 for providers in Pennsylvania and Delaware and at 1-888-YOUR-AH1 (1-888-986-7241) for providers in New Jersey.
