St. Elizabeth’s Healthcare to Leave Medicare Select Network in Kentucky

August 20, 2015

We at Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield (Anthem) are committed to providing our members with access and choice for their medical care. One way we do this is by contracting with hospitals and physicians to participate in our provider networks.  We have been in negotiations with St. Elizabeth Healthcare in Northern Kentucky, and they have decided to end their participation in our Medicare Select network effective January 1, 2016.

There will no longer be Medicare Select facilities in the Kentucky counties of Boone, Campbell, Grant and Kenton.  St. Elizabeth Healthcare has been a part of the extensive network for over 15 years, and we are clearly disappointed that they have made this decision. We will continue to talk with St. Elizabeth Healthcare in hopes of reaching an agreement.

St. Elizabeth Healthcare operates six facilities in Covington and other parts of Northern Kentucky:

St. Elizabeth Covington
1500 James Simpson Jr Way
Covington KY 41011St. Elizabeth Edgewood
1 Medical Village Dr.
Edgewood, KY 41017

St. Elizabeth Falmouth
512 South Maple Ave.
Falmouth, KY 41040

St. Elizabeth Florence
4900 Houston Road
Florence, KY 41042St. Elizabeth Ft. Thomas
85 N. Grand Ave.
Fort Thomas, KY 41075

St. Elizabeth Grant
238 Barnes Road
Williamstown, KY 41097

We will be notifying our members by letter the first of September, which will include several options regarding their health coverage.  We will also include in the mailing a listing of other Medicare Select plan facilities in KY and OH.

The health coverage options listed in the letter for the member are:

  • Continue with the current Medicare Select coverage. Emergency services may still be provided at a St. Elizabeth Healthcare facility at the highest benefit level, but elective inpatient care should be sought at one of our other Medicare Select network facilities.
  • Consider another Anthem Medicare Supplement Plan with equal or lesser benefits.
  • Choose an Anthem or other Medicare Advantage plan during the upcoming Annual Election Period (October 15 through December 7).

Anthem has participating facilities in the Metropolitan Cincinnati area that your clients might consider using for elective inpatient admissions. Emergency admissions do not require network use for maximum benefits. See the links above for those providers in close proximity to the Metropolitan Cincinnati area.

At Anthem, we’re committed to helping you succeed. We know you are a huge part of our strength and success, and we value your trust and partnership.

    Bill F.
  • Todd opened my eyes on opportunities for my retirement savings as well as my options for my healthcare. Plus, he's fun!

    Wayne S.
  • I was very impressed by the excellent meeting I had with agent Todd Oldfield from the 'cool' group of agents. He was very through, professional and knowledgeable. He had the answer to any question I had and further was not in a rush, seemed like he thought I was a human being as opposed to just another commission. He also met me at a little deli about half way between Lexington and my little home down on the Kentucky River. [to tell you the truth I believe he would have come all the to my home but I would not ask that of anyone without a 4 wheel drive vehicle that had a ground clearance of at least 10 inches. But I bet he would have . ]

    If the rest of the agents associated with the 'Cool Group' are anywhere near the caliper of Mr Oldfield then this is certainly the place to shop for your insurance needs. In my case I was to start with Medicare. (the government seemed pretty adamant on this point) The plan Mr Oldfield laid out was with Humana and I truly believe that I came out with better than I could have by just letting the government give me whatever their concept of health-care is, the Humana folks picked up from there and sent me a great deal of info on my plan and continue to be on call for any questions I may have.

     

    Now I just need to get sick. OK, no I really do not want to get sick, but it's a comfort to know that I have good coverage and then some. I did book an appointment for a check-up and place an order for my monthly $30. worth of over the counter items including a blood pressure cuff w/stethoscope.
    I highly recommend the 'cool' group and agent Todd Oldfield.

  • Great person! Doing a great job!

    Karen F
  • I want to thank Todd for making a big difference in my life. Since I am turning 65 soon, Todd came to my home and reviewed my current insurance. I am thoroughly confused by insurance companies. Todd showed me that I have been paying $60 a month, for the past 6 years for a policy that has covered nothing. Todd made phone calls and prepared the necessary paperwork while he was at my home. Now I have the coverage I need, extra money each month, and Todd as my agent to make sure my insurance needs are met. He is also very friendly and by the time he left, I felt like we were old friends. Thanks Todd!!

    Debra D
  • I can't recommend Todd Oldfield, my incredible Medicare Ninja, enough. With his extensive knowledge and personalized approach, he helped me to choose the best plan for my needs. If you're looking for someone who genuinely cares to guide you through Medicare, Mr. Oldfield is the guy you want on your side.

    Debra De
  • ...I want to hank you SO much for guiding me into a supplemental insurance policy. I have had a really rough year, health wise.

    In September last year, I got a fracture in my lower back. In December I got another one. I went through therapy, shots, etc. Long story short, I had surgery on July 10th. He put rods and screws in and I am doing better with that. Still in some pain, but considering the excruciating pain that I was in, I hate to even call it pain.

    I have had pain and weakness in my left leg since the surgery. He thinks I have a pinched nerve or a damaged nerve above where he put the rods in and he is still working on this problem.

    Again, thank you for all you have done for me. If it wasn't for the supplemental insurance, I could not have had any of this done. I have been to more doctors and have done more procedures done this past year than I have in my entire life combined. That includes going to my doctor every 3 months for my diabetes (which is doing great). 

    I know my insurance premium will probably skyrocket, but I am so blessed to have had a way to get this done...

    Very sincerely.

I scheduled an appointment with him and he went through every plan with me to ensure that I was getting the best possible plan for my personal situation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q. Who or what is the Medicare NINJA!?

Simply put, I am The Medicare NINJA! It’s just a silly name that stuck. I think it kind of ties to the fact that I “live and breathe” Medicare! I am a licensed health insurance agent, working as a broker in the state of Kentucky (KYDOI#814418). I fight to help my clients “chop” their Medical expenses. A

 LOT of clients have dropped me wonderful testimonies. 

A few are highlighted at the bottom of this article.

Q. When is Medicare Season and Who is Affected?

When we talk about Medicare Season, we are talking about the Medicare Annual Election Period (AEP) which runs from October 15th – December 7th each year. Pre-enrollment is between October 1st and October 15th. 

This is the annual season that most Medicare beneficiaries can review coming Medicare Health Plans and make any needed changes for the coming year. This is a very important time for Medicare beneficiaries as these plans change every year. Premiums, deductibles, copay and coinsurance amounts, covered services, and provider and drug inclusions or exclusions change.

Q. When is ACA Season and Who is Affected?

This is the same period for the “under 65” crowd that have individual insurance plans. This year, ACA Open Enrollment will be from November 1st – December 15th. These would include the millions that participate in the Affordable Care Act (ACA) otherwise known as “Obamacare”. Just like Medicare beneficiaries, it is important for ACA beneficiaries to meet with a professional agent to review the coming plans. These plans change every year and it is important to have this annual review to make sure you are in the plan that will save you the most money.

Q. Why is Medicare Season important to me? Why is ACA Season Important to Me?

Well. It might not be. Do you want to make sure you save the most possible?

todd menacing 2Q. What is your role? Does meeting with you cost me anything?

I am a healthcare insurance broker. This means that I am a licensed health insurance agent in the state of Kentucky (KY DOI#814418), but, rather than work directly for a health insurance company as a “captive agent” I choose to remain independent. This allows me to remain objective and I can pick and choose which companies to represent, based upon my valuation of their offerings, service, and products.

There is no charge for my service. I come meet with you, usually at your home, and talk to you about your objectives and concerns, use Medicare.gov or www.healthcare.gov to rank the offerings and then enroll you in the plan that saves you the most money.

I am paid directly by my payors to enroll and serve their members.

Q. What makes you different from every other insurance agent? How are you different than just calling an insurance company from a television commercial?

Excellent questions. I think my differences lie in two areas. One, is tied to my ability to be objective, due to my independent status. I do not work for a specific insurance payor. I represent many of the best names in the industry. Objectiveness is a major advantage. It keeps me out of the “selling you my product” kind of mentality.

Second, is my trusted “Time Well Spent” appointment method that I have perfected. When I meet with a client, my appointments run a little longer than the average insurance agent appointment. This is because I spend a great deal of time researching your prescriptions, providers, facilities… and explaining your summary of benefits. The last thing I care for is surprises when you receive medical care. 

Q. Whom do you represent?

I represent many payors including Humana, Anthem BlueCross/BlueShield, Cigna, Mutual of Omaha, Wellcare, SilverScripts and several others in the Medicare Marketplace and Anthem BlueCross/BlueShield in the ACA marketplace.

todd menacing 4Q. Do You Cover My Town?

I cover a large geographic territory from Kenton, Boone, and Campbell counties in northern Kentucky, east as far as Boyd and Pike Counties, down all the way to Middlesboro, KY and then west as far as Fulton. 

Pretty much anywhere within the state of Kentucky. IF you live in Kentucky, chances are I will come to you.

Q. How do we meet? How do I book an appointment?

Well, there is a variety of ways that we can meet. 

First and foremost is Walmart.

 

 

During Medicare season, I can be found in the Hamburg Walmart Supercenter in Lexington, KY. If you live around Lexington, this is as good an option as any to meet up with me. Be sure to schedule an appointment if possible, so that I know you are coming, and do not take on a conversation with a store patron.

Second, are face-to-face appointments in your home.

 

 

If you are within 4.5 hours of Lexington and live in Kentucky, I will be happy to come see you to discuss your Medicare case. 

Third, you are welcome to schedule an appointment with me at my office outside of my Walmart hours.

During AEP season, I work seven days per week to accommodate the need.

 

todd menacing 5Q. What do I Need to Bring to an Appointment?

I have an excellent page that outlines what to bring to an appointment as well as how an appointment works and what we do during a “time well spent” appointment.

Q. Does this help? Do you actually help if I book an Appointment With You?

That, you would have to ask my clients. Below are some personal testimonies from my actual clients that have given me permission to share their comments.

Medicare Reviews: “Time Well Spent” Appointments

HOW NOT TO WASTE TIME…

With zero doubt, we all want to be smart consumers and on the subject of Medicare, as a beneficiary, you have to know the facts each year to make sure you are saving the most amount of money possible on your healthcare costs. By knowing the facts, you can avoid some “surprises” when you need healthcare; namely unexpected costs.

Every year Medicare health plans change. Their premiums, deductibles, copays, coinsurance; all these things can change… your COSTS can change. Each year providers, facilities, and drugs enter and exit plans. Each year plans themselves enter and exit the marketplace.

Even covered procedures.

DO YOURSELF A FAVOR….

Call a professional; a licensed, experienced healthcare insurance agent or broker, and have them sit down with you and explain your options. A “broker” is the best possible option because they frequently represent multiple companies, rather than just a couple or even one. Brokers can remain unbiased and uninfluenced by individual plans because they remain independent. Sales agents working for one plan and want you to buy their plan. Right? An agent is not going to be paid if you choose their competition. Makes sense, right?

What you need is an unbiased professional that you can trust to sit down with you and help you double check your plans against all those being offered to make sure.

While they are there, you should have them verify your physicians and other providers status; that they are “in-network” for the plan you choose. Not that they accept the plan… because that can be misleading. They need to be “in-network” for your plan. This is especially important in HMOs. Providers are very often moving in and out of network for plans.

They need to also check your facilities. Your hospitals, clinics, practices to make sure they are “in-network” as well. You really do not want to pay “out-of-network” rates if you do not have to. See the chart below.

clipboard complete

Checklist for how to save time and money. Make sure your adviser does these things when you meet with them.

 

IS ALL OF THIS REQUIRED?…

Heavens no.

Any agent; independent or not may be able to enroll you in a healthcare plan of your choosing if they are appointed and have certified with that plan on their product offerings. We do not even need your prescription list, provider list, etc. In fact, most agents don’t want to spend the time necessary to do all this research when they come to see you.

And, it’s important for you to know that, if you share that information with them, that it has NO IMPACT ON WHETHER YOU CAN ENROLL OR NOT… During the Annual Enrollment Period (AEP), you cannot be turned down due to poor health conditions. Everyone is accepted. The only purpose for sharing that information with your agent is so that he can evaluate what your possible healthcare costs will be for the coming year. It has nothing to do with ability to enroll.

THIS IS FOR YOU

The fact is our lives would be easier if we did not do all this research. Can you imagine. If I had 1000 clients for instance? Do I really want to look up maybe 10,000 drugs if each had 10?

No. This is not for us. Rather, this research should be our commitment to you. This is what I do for you that most will not. I want you to know all your facts so that you can make an informed educated decision, so that next year, you are not caught with a financial surprise!

THE BEST COURSE OF ACTION…

    This guy truly wants to help people and went WAY out of his way to assist me and my needs.....THANKS! 🙂

  • John W.

    I trust Michael Oldfield. He's been my agent for years. He always makes time for me. Always makes time over the year to explain any changes. If I have any questions, I can call him. If he's not available, he calls me back soon as he can. I probably would have changed a long time ago if Mr. Oldfield wasn't my agent. He's like family.

     

  • R.F.

    ...I want to hank you SO much for guiding me into a supplemental insurance policy. I have had a really rough year, health wise.

    In September last year, I got a fracture in my lower back. In December I got another one. I went through therapy, shots, etc. Long story short, I had surgery on July 10th. He put rods and screws in and I am doing better with that. Still in some pain, but considering the excruciating pain that I was in, I hate to even call it pain.

    I have had pain and weakness in my left leg since the surgery. He thinks I have a pinched nerve or a damaged nerve above where he put the rods in and he is still working on this problem.

    Again, thank you for all you have done for me. If it wasn't for the supplemental insurance, I could not have had any of this done. I have been to more doctors and have done more procedures done this past year than I have in my entire life combined. That includes going to my doctor every 3 months for my diabetes (which is doing great). 

    I know my insurance premium will probably skyrocket, but I am so blessed to have had a way to get this done...

    Very sincerely.

  • Dave G. aka Riverdave

    I was very impressed by the excellent meeting I had with agent Todd Oldfield from the 'cool' group of agents. He was very through, professional and knowledgeable. He had the answer to any question I had and further was not in a rush, seemed like he thought I was a human being as opposed to just another commission. He also met me at a little deli about half way between Lexington and my little home down on the Kentucky River. [to tell you the truth I believe he would have come all the to my home but I would not ask that of anyone without a 4 wheel drive vehicle that had a ground clearance of at least 10 inches. But I bet he would have . ]

    If the rest of the agents associated with the 'Cool Group' are anywhere near the caliper of Mr Oldfield then this is certainly the place to shop for your insurance needs. In my case I was to start with Medicare. (the government seemed pretty adamant on this point) The plan Mr Oldfield laid out was with Humana and I truly believe that I came out with better than I could have by just letting the government give me whatever their concept of health-care is, the Humana folks picked up from there and sent me a great deal of info on my plan and continue to be on call for any questions I may have.

     

    Now I just need to get sick. OK, no I really do not want to get sick, but it's a comfort to know that I have good coverage and then some. I did book an appointment for a check-up and place an order for my monthly $30. worth of over the counter items including a blood pressure cuff w/stethoscope.
    I highly recommend the 'cool' group and agent Todd Oldfield.

    Yours in Liberty,
    David G. aka riverdave

  • C. Baker

    Todd came to my house instead of me having to go to him. He sat down and explained Medicare and supplemental health insurance fully. Through his computer program he defined best program for me. Additionally best RX program and saved me ENORMOUS time and energy.

    "Best insurance agent I have dealt with."

  • Robert S.

    My agent, Todd Oldfield was very professional and very well informed.

  • Amy D.

    While Todd is known as being the Medicare NINJA, he is also well-versed in Kynect health insurance plans. He expedited the sign-up process to ensure the deadline was met. In just one conversation it became quite evident Todd knows the insurance business and I knew right away I was in good hands! He listened to my concerns and addressed them timely. He achieved the results I was after - so I now know him as the Kynect NINJA!

  • J. Martin & L. Harper

    Mr. Oldfield came to our home and explained the choices of supplements. He was very knowledgeable and patent when we asked questions and I feel I can call him anytime if questions arise.

  • P. O’Neal

    Mr. Oldfield was very helpful in helping me obtain affordable health insurance.

  • D Whitt

    I want to thank Todd for making a big difference in my life. Since I am turning 65 soon, Todd came to my home and reviewed my current insurance. I am thoroughly confused by insurance companies. Todd showed me that I have been paying $60 a month, for the past 6 years for a policy that has covered nothing. Todd made phone calls and prepared the necessary paperwork while he was at my home. Now I have the coverage I need, extra money each month, and Todd as my agent to make sure my insurance needs are met. He is also very friendly and by the time he left, I felt like we were old friends. Thanks Todd!!

  • Karen J.

    I want to express my appreciation for your assistance in enrolling me in an individual insurance program. I was impressed with your vast knowledge of all types of insurance. I will call you to revisit my insurance needs.

  • D. Dickerson

    You surely must know you are appreciated by all your clients. The labyrinth of insurance details is messy business. A person needs people like you to sort out the messy, confusing options. Aside from making an informed choice, you were especially pleasant and kind.

  • Michael L.

    The speaker clearly knows the material. I came away feeling like I had a much better understanding of Medicare; it's components, my exposure to financial risk should I become ill, and how to protect my finances.

  • Linda C.

He told me not worry that we would get it all taken care of.....Taken care of it was...I met with at our appt and 30 minutes later, I had insurance, basic knowledge of the policy which was explained in more depth when I called a week later to ask some questions...Todd is a knowledgeable, genuine and caring insurance GURU..... HE ISN'T CALLED THE "MEDICARE NINJA FOR NO REASON".....Call him for your healthcare needs...you won't disappointed.....

Elder Abuse in Nursing Homes — It Happens, Watch Out For These Big Signs

If you or someone you know has a loved one in a nursing home right now, it‘s important to stay alert — because you might not expect the level of neglect or abuse that can occur when you’re not looking. Here’s what we’re talking about: Death; Serious bodily injury such as stroke or paralysis; Severe pain and suffering; Medical negligence. If an elderly person you know suffered or passed away from any of the above while residing in a nursing home, you may be able to file a nursing home abuse lawsuit on their behalf. Death, serious bodily injury and significant pain and suffering may happen for a variety of reasons, including medical negligence — i.e., nurses or staff not calling doctors in when they are so desperately needed.
