Premium Billing.

To enhance the experience for our Individual and Medicare members, we have discontinued our internal pre-authorization checking withdrawals billing option. We encourage all our members to use our online billing tool, accessible through the Select Health member portal and mobile app. Members can make manual payments and set up automatic payments. Automatic payments will be processed on the first day of the month (previously set on the 10th of each month). 

This change aims to better serve members who may need to terminate a plan or have experienced changes in their APTC, ensuring timely payment returns. 

Members can set up autopay online at selecthealth.org or by calling our accounting team at 844-442-4106, option 3, from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on weekdays, and 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. on Saturdays.

Individual Agent of Record (AOR) Helpful Hints.

If you are acquiring business from another agent within your agency or you have purchased a portion/all of their business, send an email to Amy.Koncar@selecthealth.org and include both agents. We will process those transfers effective the following month.

Individual AORs must be submitted through the Select Health Link agent portal. You can find this function below the Agent Tools heading.

Individual AORs must be received by January 15, 2025, for a January 1 effective date.

AOR letters must be signed by both the member and the agent within 30 days of submission. AOR letters will be returned unprocessed if signatures are missing or the date on the letter is more than 30 days out.

Be sure to fully explain to the member the purpose of an AOR. Ensure the member is well-informed on what the change entails.

NOTE: For AOR changes through the FFM/Marketplace, we require an AOR be submitted through Link. We do not accept updates for AOR through Marketplace 834 files.
