CaliforniaChoice offers more choices for you and your employees than any other health insurance program in California. And we’re working hard every day to enhance our program and add new options and services that will make CaliforniaChoice even better.
By offering our program, you’re giving your employees the freedom to choose the health care that’s right for them. They can choose from 20 networks, 130+ HMO, EPO, and PPO coverage options, and access to eight leading health plans.
You might choose a PPO from Anthem Blue Cross for yourself because you or your spouse will have
access to a particular doctor or hospital in the Anthem network. Someone else in your group might prefer a local or regional HMO like Sutter Health Plus, Western Health Advantage, or Sharp Health Plan.
A third employee might want an HMO plan from Health Net, Kaiser Permanente, or UnitedHealthcare. Others might choose an EPO from Anthem or Cigna + Oscar. One or more employees might want an HSA-compatible HDHP. With CaliforniaChoice, it’s your – and their – choice.
More Reasons to Love CaliforniaChoice
CaliforniaChoice also includes value-added benefits for your business and your employees.
- Optional Dental, Vision, Life, and Chiro: It’s easy to add SmileSaver Dental HMO coverage or Ameritas Dental PPO coverage. Three Vision options are available, too, including one at no additional cost. Assurity Life offers valuable Life benefits plus a partial payout in case of a terminal illness diagnosis. Low-cost Chiropractic and Acupuncture benefits are available, too. If you’re not already offering these, ask your broker about adding one or more during your next open enrollment.
- Business Solutions Suite: If you have 15+ employees and you’re not already offering a Flexible Spending Account, you can give employees a way to put away money, pre-tax, to pay for eligible out-of-pocket health expenses. Your group may also qualify for Cal-COBRA or federal COBRA billing. A Premium Only Plan reduces your company’s payroll taxes and gives employees the ability to pay their portion of insurance premiums with pre-tax dollars. Call Customer Service to discuss adding any of these for your group.
- Member Value Suite: Members can take advantage of great savings on Dental, Vision, and Hearing services, and prescription drugs. Get discounts of up to 57% on Garmin, Vitamix, and Fitbit products. Start a fitness membership for $28 per month. You and others will also appreciate Cal Perks savings on movies, theme parks, hotels, and more.
Plus, you already know about the single, consolidated monthly bill you get each month for all of your employees’ CaliforniaChoice coverage. And don’t overlook the ease of managing your benefits and paying your bill online at calchoice.com.
