Because you are a valued Fidelis Care provider, we’d like to share some exciting changes to our Medicare plans with you. We’ve combined multiple brands under the Wellcare name to offer a better range of plans that provide members with affordable access to doctors, nurses, and specialists.
We want you to know that you do not need to take any action at this time, and there will be NO disruption to your patients’ – our members’ - coverage. At this time, there are no changes to your contracts, reimbursement, or the business operations you have come to know.
All Fidelis Care Medicare products will be known as Wellcare By Fidelis Care. Fidelis Care’s Medicaid Managed Care (MMC), Child Health Plus (CHP), Managed Long Term Care (MLTC), Health and Recovery Plan (HARP) , Essential Plan (EP), and Quality Health Plans (QHP, also known as metal level) will continue under the Fidelis Care brand. This fall, you will begin to receive materials with the new Wellcare By Fidelis Care branding. We will officially transition to Wellcare By Fidelis Care on January 1, 2022, unless otherwise noted. Please note, you may continue to see materials with the Fidelis Care branding prior to January 2022.
We know you may have questions about this transition so we’ve collected and addressed some Frequently Asked Questions in our Wellcare By Fidelis Care FAQ document, located in our Manuals, Forms and Policies section.
