What to Expect After You Become an MVP Member

Look for the following items after you enroll in the Medicare Advantage plan of your choice:

  • Your confirmation letter. We’ll let you know when Medicare has approved your enrollment in your plan. This letter includes your monthly premium amount and MVP Member ID number. You can use this letter as proof of coverage before your Member ID card arrives. You’ll receive your enrollment confirmation letter within 10 days of your enrollment. 
  • Your MVP Member ID card and plan welcome materials. Always show your member ID card when you visit your doctor, dentist, or pharmacy. You’ll receive your ID card within 10 days of your confirmation letter. Keep your Medicare card at home for your records. 
  • A Benefits MasterCard® Prepaid Card. Use this card for your dental benefits or over-the-counter purchases. Benefits vary by plan.
  • A Benefit Guide. This includes detailed information about your benefits and how to use them. You’ll receive a Benefit Guide close to your plan start date.

New plan materials may not be sent each year, depending on enrollment or plan changes.

 

Prior Authorization 

Prior authorization is a process in which we review a proposed treatment to make sure you’re receiving the care you need at a reasonable cost. Some treatments and services require prior authorization from us. This applies whether you receive them from providers within our network or outside it. 

 
Some types of care and services that need prior authorization include: 

  • Admissions to transitional care units, acute rehabilitation, and skilled nursing facilities 
  • Diagnostic services, such as CT scans and MRIs 
  • Durable medical equipment 
  • Home care services 
  • Implants and internal prosthetics 
  • Select prescription drugs 

Your doctor will usually request prior authorization whenever we need it. If you need or want a medical service that isn’t available from a provider in our network, you may refer yourself to a provider outside the network. Remember: It may cost you more to receive care from a provider who is outside our network.
