As you may already be aware, the insurance company for the Quality Care Health Plan (QCHP) will be changing from Cigna to Aetna effective July 1, 2017. As a result of this change, please take note of the following:
- The State indicated that Aetna’s network coverage has a 98% overlap with the current Cigna network. To see if your doctor and/or hospital is in the Aetna network, follow the steps below or call 855-339-9731:
- Go to https://www.aetnastateofillinois.com/
- Click “See if your doctor is in our network”
- Select the QCHP Plan
- Search for your doctor/hospital by name and location
- If you continue enrollment in the QCHP for the new Plan Year beginning July 1, 2017, then you will receive a new insurance ID card from Aetna in the mail following the end of Benefit Choice.
- Remember to provide your new Aetna insurance information, effective July 1, 2017, to your doctor and other health care providers once you have your new insurance ID card.
