Why Connected Care is a great choice for you and your family This is our fourth year offering Connected Care plans through Presbyterian with no cost increase and lower out-of-pocket costs. Connected Care emphasizes teamwork, coordination, and technology with you, the patient, being the center of it all. Your care is provided through a Patient Centered Medical Home where a team of connected healthcare providers are led by your primary care physician to enhance shared decision-making and communication, resulting in personalized care that is based on your needs and goals. Connected Care is built on several of Intel s leading principles: innovation, measuring outcomes, a great user experience, and continuous improvement. Connected Care providers are rewarded for the quality, convenience, and value of care they provide. With traditional healthcare, on the other hand, the more services providers order, the more they get paid. With Connected Care, Intel has designed a system that holds providers accountable for getting and keeping you healthy. We know that any changes to your plan selection or your healthcare providers are not decisions to take lightly. If you are not enrolled in Connected Care today, you may discover your doctors already are part of the network or you may want a new doctor that is part of the network to meet your needs through the Connected Care plans. Either way, we encourage you to look at Connected Care as you weigh your options for 2016. We are confident the Connected Care commitment will continue to be realized, including cost savings. If you are currently enrolled in the Presbyterian HMO plan you can save even more and may keep your current providers. The average savings is about one month s worth of your premium to change to Connected Care Copay. If you change from the HMO to Connected Care HDHP, you could see savings of $350 per year for employee only and more than $1,500 annual savings for family coverage. Connected Care experience in New Mexico 95% overall satisfaction. 96% feel the quality of care delivered meets or exceeds expectations.

The fertility lifetime maximum increases to $40,000 (from $10,000) for medical services and $20,000 (from $5,000) for prescription drugs with all plans, except for HMOs.
