The bigger picture is the better picture

Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield's (Anthem) dental, vision and disability plans are connected to our health plans through clinical integration, also known as Anthem Whole Health ConnectionSM. This means that we deliver a bigger, better picture of health for employees and can help improve the health and productivity of employees by providing additional benefits, guidance and resources to members.
 
Dental
Members who have either Dental Prime or Dental Complete and actively participate in any one of our Care Management programs through their Anthem health plan are automatically eligible for an additional dental cleaning or periodontal maintenance procedure, which is a deeper cleaning of the gums, per benefit period. These Care Management programs include the following conditions:
  • Diabetes
  • Pregnancy
  • Heart conditions (heart disease, an enlarged heart and mitral or aortic valve prolapse)
  • Organ or bone marrow transplant
  • Cancer (any type) treated with chemotherapy
  • Head or neck cancer treated with chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy
Vision
Eye doctors can detect health problems during a routine eye exam. When you have Blue View Vision and an Anthem health plan, we facilitate two-way communication between our network eye doctors and our network primary care doctors. This enable earlier detection of health problems and coordinated action, so members can get the follow-up care and support they need.
 
Disability
Integration of short-term disability and Anthem health benefits improves employee health and productivity. We refer disability claimants with certain chronic conditions and maternity claims to the ConditionCare and Future Moms programs. It's automatic for all group customers with Anthem health benefit plans. It helps reduce disability costs, increase engagement in health and wellness programs to reduce cost of care, and improve the overall member experience.
