Preventive Care
Preventive Care Requirement
(Applies to PPO 1500 and HDHP 3200 plans)
NRP cares about our employees. One of the best things we can do for ourselves and those we care about is to get physical exams and preventive care tests. Because we feel so strongly about the need for preventive care, we invest in our employees by providing premium savings as an incentive for employees and their covered spouse to stay up to date on their preventive care screenings each year.
Preventive care services are covered by our health plan once per calendar year at no cost to you! When you schedule your appointment, be sure to request an “annual preventive care exam” to avoid an office visit copay. Current members are not required to wait 365 days from their last physical.
Employees currently enrolled in the health plan
Employees and covered spouses must complete the NRP Preventive Care Confirmation Form signed by a healthcare provider by May 1st of each year to qualify for a discounted premium for the upcoming Plan Year.
New Employees eligible for benefits between January 1, 2024 and December 31, 2024
New employees eligible for health coverage during the calendar year will not be required to complete the preventive care requirements and will enjoy the discounted premium rate until the 2025 Open Enrollment.
Employees not currently enrolled in health plan
Employees and covered spouses who elect coverage for the first time at Open Enrollment must complete the NRP Preventive Care Confirmation Form by May 1, 2025. Employees that experience a qualifying life event and enroll in medical benefits throughout the plan year, must complete the NRP Preventive Care Form within 30 days of the life event. These forms must be signed by a healthcare provider to be enrolled at the discounted premium rate.
