LiveHealth Online
LiveHealth Online provides access to a national network of U.S. board-certified doctors, pediatricians, psychologists or therapists who are available on-demand 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year to diagnose, treat and prescribe medication (when necessary) for many medical issues via phone or online video consultations. LiveHealth Online does not replace the existing primary care physician, psychologist or therapist relationship, but enhances it as a convenient, affordable alternative for medical care.
For 2024, you pay $55 per LiveHealth Online phone or video consultation with a physician until the deductible is met. After that, you pay $11.00 per consultation. Online visits with a therapist are $85, with a psychologist are $100 and with a psychiatrist are $185 for the initial evaluation and $80 for follow up visits, all applying to your medical plan deductible and coinsurance. Once you meet the annual out-of-pocket maximum, consultations are covered in full for the remainder of the year. If you are enrolled in an HSA or HCSA/LPSA, the fee is considered a qualified health care expense and can be reimbursed through your spending account. Charges for phone or video consultations with a physician, psychologist or therapist and/or other provider who is not contracted with Anthem’s LiveHealth Online service are excluded. In most states, the physician can e-prescribe medications for you after a LiveHealth Online consultation if needed.

AIM Imaging Cost and Quality Program
Anthem BlueCross BlueShield has partnered with AIM Specialty Health to offer access to important information about imaging services you might need.
If you need an MRI or a CT scan, it's important to know that costs can vary quite a bit depending on where you go to receive the service. Sometimes the differences are significant — anywhere from $300 to $3,000 — but a higher price does not guarantee higher quality. Your benefits require you to pay a portion of the cost (through deductible and coinsurance), so where you go can make a very big difference to your wallet. AIM does the research and makes it available to help you find the right location for your MRI or CT scan. Here's how the program works:
  • Your doctor refers you to a radiology provider for an MRI or CT scan.
  • AIM works with your doctor to help make sure that you are receiving the right test — using evidence-based guidelines.
  • AIM also reviews the referral to see if there are other providers in your area that are high quality but have a lower price than the referred one.
  • If AIM finds another provider that meets the quality and price criteria, AIM will give you a call to let you know.
  • You can choose which radiology provider you wish to perform the service. AIM will even help you schedule an appointment with the new provider.
Concierge Cancer Care
If you are enrolled in an Anthem medical plan, you have access to the Concierge Cancer Care program. The focus is on you, so you can focus on your health. Under this program, you receive personalized support during your treatment journey including:
  • Expert guidance. A virtual second opinion program helps ensure you receive the right care. You'll also have regular check-ins with cancer experts throughout your journey.
  • Premier treatment. Receive treatment from hospitals specializing in the care you need, including cutting-edge treatments available for your specific condition.
  • Peace of mind. If you travel for care, Concierge Cancer Care will take care of booking, confirming, and covering your arrangements.
To learn more about the Concierge Cancer Care program, contact your Citi Health Concierge at Anthem at the number on the back of your ID card.
Sleep Study Program
The Plan includes benefits for a Sleep Management Program, administered by AIM Specialty Health, which is a program that helps your doctor make better-informed decisions about your treatment for sleep-related issues. The Sleep Management Program includes outpatient and home sleep testing and therapy. If you require sleep testing, depending on your medical condition, you may be asked to complete the sleep study in your home. Home sleep studies provide the added benefit of reflecting your normal sleep pattern while sleeping in the comfort of your own bed versus going to an outpatient facility for the test.
As part of this program, you are required to get precertification for:
  • Home sleep tests (HST);
  • In-lab sleep studies (polysomnography or PSG, a recording of behavior during sleep);
  • Titration studies (to determine the exact pressure needed for treatment); and
  • Treatment orders for equipment, including positive airway pressure devices (APAP, CPAP, BPAP, ASV), oral devices and related supplies.
If you need ongoing treatment, AIM will review your care quarterly to assure that medical criteria are met for coverage. Your equipment supplier or your doctor will be required to provide periodic updates to ensure clinical appropriateness. Ongoing claim approval will depend partly on how you comply with the treatment your doctor has ordered.
Please talk to your doctor about getting approval for any sleep testing and therapy equipment and supplies.
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) Program
The ASD Program is a specialized, dedicated team of clinicians within Anthem who have been trained on the unique challenges and needs of families with a member who has a diagnosis of ASD. Anthem provides specialized case management services for members with Autism Spectrum Disorder and their families. The program also includes precertification and medical necessity reviews for applied behavior analysis, a treatment modality targeting the symptoms of Autism Spectrum Disorder.

  • Increased follow-up care encouraged by appointment setting, reminders, attendance confirmation, proactive discharge planning and referrals; and
  • Assures that parents and siblings have the best support to manage their own needs.
Coordination
  • Enhanced member experience and coordination of care;
  • Assistance in exploration of medical services that may help the member, including referrals to medical case management; and

Primary Nurse
Primary Nurse serves as a personal health guide for individuals and their families. Each personal nurse provides education, counseling, tools and support to help you navigate the health care system and make wise decisions. Primary Nurse is available if you are experiencing health issues or need assistance managing lifestyle issues. Primary Nurse primarily uses the following:
  • Coaching for education and self-care via web-based self-help tools and the program's 24/7 NurseLine;
  • Collaborative goal planning and intervention strategies;
  • Facilitation, coordination and referral to necessary services;
  • Incorporating clinical resources such as pharmacists, social workers and dietitians; and

The program also offers you and any covered family members one-on-one support by phone from a health coach with strategies to help with:
  • Losing weight;
  • Getting ready for surgery; and
  • Lowering stress levels and more.
The coach works with you and your family to create an individualized program care plan that features personalized goals to ensure you are following your provider's plan of care.
24/7 NurseLine
You may have emergencies or questions for nurses around the clock. 24/7 NurseLine provides you with accurate health information at any time of the day or night. Through one-on-one counseling with experienced nurses available 24 hours a day via a convenient toll-free number, you can make more-informed decisions about the most appropriate and cost-effective use of health care services. A staff of experienced nurses is trained to address common health care concerns such as medical triage, education, access to health care, diet, social/family dynamics and mental health issues. Specifically, the 24/7 NurseLine features:
  • A skilled clinical team, including an RN-licensed nurse (BSN preferred), that helps you assess symptoms and understand medical conditions, ensures you receive the right care in the right setting, and refers you to programs and tools appropriate to your condition;
  • Bilingual RNs, language line and hearing-impaired services;
  • Access to the Audio Health Library, containing hundreds of audiotapes on a wide variety of health topics;

  • Referrals to relevant community resources.
