2020 Open Enrollment – November 1 through December 15, 2019

As you know, it’s time for your Marketplace clients to make their health plan choices for the coming year. Community Health Choice is here to make it as easy as possible for you to promote and sell our plans. Here is a quick overview.

My Member Account​

Community Members can make payments, check claims status, get a Member ID card, and so much more online via their Member Portal. They can even chat, email or text our Member Services team from their My Member account, avoiding being placed on hold by phone.

Need help enrolling a client or answering questions about our plans? That’s what we’re here for. 

We value our partnership with agents. If you need assistance of any kind, please let us know. You play a big role in keeping our Members happy with their Community plan, and we appreciate you.

Call us at 713.295.6760 or toll-free at 1.855.315.5386.

2020 Community Updates

Service Area Expansion

Community has expanded our Marketplace service area to include the following counties: Walker, San Jacinto, Polk, Tyler, Jasper, Newton, Hardin, Austin, Wharton, and Matagorda. This means we will now offer CHIP, STAR, and Marketplace in the same 20-county service area.

Great Plans; Easy Selection

Most of our 2020 plans cost the same or less than last year.

Exception – Community has discontinued the following plans for 2020: Community Silver HMO 002 Copay plan and Community Limited Network Plan HMO 006 and 007. Kelsey-Seybold is no longer part of our network, so the Limited Plan Network HMO 006 and 007 plans won’t be offered for 2020. Members enrolled in discontinued plans are being crosswalked to other Community plans and will have access to our large network of providers.

We’ve made it easier than ever to sign up for coverage. With one click, you can use our personal shopping tool to help clients find and enroll in an affordable plan.
