What should a member do at the beginning of their term when they don have an insurance card and need to seek medical attention or have prescriptions filled?
Members needing to seek medical treatment prior to receiving their insurance cards should contact the Washington Service Corps Insurance program manager, Terri Jack at (360) 438-4012 or toll-free at 1-888-713-6080. Many times the Service Corps can expedite enrollment of a member and obtain the member ID number for the member to use at the doctor’s office. Because the insurance covers prescriptions on a reimbursement method, the member would not need to have their insurance card in order to purchase prescriptions. The member can then fax the prescription receipt to Terri Jack and she will ask the insurance company to expedite the reimbursement process.
