MEDICAL PLANS


CARRIERS

The State of Arizona offers medical coverage through two carriers. The plan is identical with each carrier. The difference is the provider networks. Both carriers offer coverage nationwide. When choosing a plan, check with your medical providers (doctors, therapists, etc.) to confirm that they accept the plan. Use the links provided here. Do not use the main carrier websites. 

MEDICAL ID CARDS

When you enroll in medical benefits you will receive a medical ID card within a few weeks. You can also access your ID card via the insurance company’s website or app.  If you need assistance before you can retrieve your card information, contact your carrier. See the information below.
