Important: We need the required Section 111 information
As previously communicated, a federal mandate (Section 111 of the Medicare, Medicaid and SCHIP Extension Act of 2007) requires us to collect certain group and member information. Section 111 has two components:
- Federal tax identification/employer identification numbers — New groups are no longer being approved for coverage without providing this information.
- Social Security Numbers — Social Security numbers are required for all subscribers and dependents. Effective July 1, we’re no longer processing paper or online enrollment requests without them.
Please note: Newborns may be enrolled online or with a hardcopy form without a social security number. However, once they have a social security number, it must be provided to Priority Health.
Please contact your agent, account manager or the Small Business department at 800 471-2504 with any questions.
