Dear
Colleagues,
As
you know, we are coming to the end of the transition period to our new health
care insurance provider. We would like to take this opportunity to thank you
all for your input, and for your patience with the process.
If
you have not received your ID card from UnitedHealthcare and need to get one
before the end of the year, a system has been set up to send out temporary UnitedHealthcare
ID cards by secure email. The email address is:
To
get your ID card emailed to you, you can send an email, from any email address,
to fordhamtempidcard@4mybenefits.com and include
the employee’s Fordham ID and name. A temporary ID card will be emailed only to
the employee who requested the card by the end of the business day. The
temporary ID card will be sent by secure email to the employee’s Fordham email
address. For security reasons, you will need to create a password to open
the secure email.
This email will be monitored Monday
through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m., and will be closed on Thursday, December
25, 2014, Friday, December 26, 2014, and Thursday, January 1, 2015.
You can also call the Member Services
line for UnitedHealthcare at (866) 633-2446 to order an ID card to be mailed to
your home. When you
call UnitedHealthcare at the number above, ask for a representative and be
prepared to provide the employee’s Social Security Number for identification.
Beginning
on January 4, 2015, you can register on www.myuhc.com and find tools and information to
help you manage your benefits. The member ID card will also be available on www.myuhc.com beginning January 4, 2015. For added
convenience, you can also download the Health4Me mobile app, available for Apple and Android smartphones and tablets. The app
will help you find doctors and facilities, check the status of a claim, and
estimate the costs of common procedures. The app will also let you view your ID
card, which you can use at any doctor’s office or other provider.
Please
accept our sincere wishes for a joyous holiday season and a happy, healthy new
year.
Sincerely,
Donald
L. Perretti
Director
of Benefits
