Members who enroll in the programs receive comprehensive educational materials, tools and other benefits. All programs provide the opportunity to work one-on-one with a specially trained nurse.

Depending on a member’s customized program, members have access to discounts and free or discounted tools that will help them manage their health plan, including:

• Select brand–name asthma drugs for the same copayment as generics 
• Free peak flow meter and spacer for asthma
• Free glucose meter
• Discount of 40% off selected blood pressure monitors, heart rate monitors and scales for blood pressure and weight monitoring
• Deductible waiver for most diabetic supplies

Nutrition counseling

Upon enrollment in the Member Health Partnerships program, members will be covered for six nutrition counseling visits per year with a registered dietitian who can help find ways to eat healthier. If members see an in–network dietitian in an office setting, there is no copayment.
