Plan Applicants
If an Applicant does not read English, a Spanish translation of this Application is available. All Applicants age 18 and over must personally read and agree to sign the following.
I, the undersigned, understand that under the Healthy Adults Benefits Association (or an Association DBA) Health Care Plan, in which I am enrolling, I will not be entitled to Covered Benefits if I use a non-contracting a physician I was not assigned to.
I understand I will only receive Covered Benefits for services by or authorized by the Exclusive Provider Primary Care Physician and hospital that is in the network.
IMPORTANT: The effective date of your Healthy Adults Benefits Association (or an Association DBA) policy will be the 1st of the month following approval of your application. Premiums are due First (1) day after the effective date each and every month while coverage is effective. Requesting an effective date does not guarantee underwriting to be completed before the date requested. The term of the subject policy shall be for a duration of 12 months and premiums are based and depend on the appropriate costs associated with providing medical services. As damages are difficult to ascertain for early termination, should an insured terminate the policy prior to the 12 month term expiring, then the insured shall be charged a one time early withdraw fee in the amount of $250.00
