Recently enrolled?
If you have recently enrolled in coverage, you may have a 4-6 week wait before you
are active in the Premera system and receive your cards in the mail. If you have immediate
need (i.e - enrolled in coverage due to a life event and have an appointment the following
day) please email ua-benefits@alaska.edu as soon as possible with your Ï㽶ÊÓƵID and appointment date/time. This way we can ensure
your information is provided to Premera in time for your appointment. Usually these
types of requests take 1-2 business days. Please keep that in mind when making your
request.
VSP = No Cards
As a reminder, VSP does not provide physical cards. You use your Ï㽶ÊÓƵID with a leading
'0' (i.e. 031234567). More information on VSP can be found in our recent article "Learn about your vision provider: VSP."
