Customize Plan

This will take you to the Customize Plan page. Here, you can create a custom name (like 'Base Plan' or 'Buy Up Plan') and description for the plan that the Employees will see when they complete the Employee Interview. The customized name and description only appear on the Employee's account, not on the actual form that's sent to the Carrier.

Pricing Structure

Now you'll see the Pricing Structure page. Here, you'll be able to enter the tier rating as well as the employer’s contribution to the cost of the plan.

For Anthem MCF BP, you'll select Composite for the rating and Four-Tier for the Tier Structure. You can choose the Employer Contribution from the drop-down menu:

Load Rates

Finally, on the Load Rates page, you'll add in the quoted rates (premiums) without any deductions and select Save to complete.

This will take you back to the Plans Assigned Dashboard. You can view and edit the plan that you have added or add additional plans (if needed). If you are ready to have the employees select their plans, click the Back button to go to your Client Dashboard.

Turning on Plan Selection process for Employees

Make sure to select the correct Pay Period under Employer Info.

Make sure you set the Plan Selection Open Date to today’s date and the Plan Selection Close Date to either a few days to a week in the future. By setting these dates, all Employees will be listed with a Not Started status. This ensures accurate plan selection tracking, you'll see their statuses go to Complete once finished. Make sure that the updated Plan Selection Close Date is before your original Effective Date.

Remember to Save your changes. The plan(s) will automatically appear in the Employees' accounts on the Plan Selection Open Date.
