Dependent Social Security numbers required for enrollment
(April 21, 2010)
Priority Health requires you to enter Social Security numbers for all dependents you enroll in an employee's policy. This helps us stay compliant with Section 111 of the Medicare, Medicaid and SCHIP Extension Act of 2007 (MMSEA), which requires us to provide information about the employees and members we cover to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS).
Starting July 1, you'll receive an error message and will not be able to process the enrollment if you don't enter a dependent's Social Security number.
Be sure to have all employee and dependent Social Security numbers ready when you enter their information in the enrollment tool.
If you have questions, contact Billing & Enrollment Customer Service at 800 471-2504, option 3 then 3 again.
