Ambetter from Sunflower Health Plan Health Adds Four Counties to Kansas Insurance Coverage

PR Newswire

LENEXA, Kan., Nov. 16, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Open enrollment for the Health Insurance Marketplace in Kansas is running from Nov. 1, 2021, through Jan. 15, 2022. This year, Ambetter from Sunflower Health Plan is available to Kansas residents in 91 counties through the federal Health Insurance Marketplace.

"The COVID-19 pandemic emphasized that reliable and affordable health insurance is needed more than ever," said Michael Stephens, Sunflower President and CEO. "As part of the nation's No. 1 Marketplace insurer, Ambetter from Sunflower Health Plan has the experience and resources to help people when it matters most, and we're proud to provide reliable coverage to more people throughout Kansas."

Ambetter from Sunflower Health Plan offers increased value, convenient services, and benefits that help make health insurance fit within people's lives:

  • $0 Copay for Telehealth
    Ambetter Telehealth provides convenient, 24-hour access to in-network Ambetter providers for non-emergency health issues. With a $0 copay, members can get medical advice, a diagnosis, or a prescription via phone or video, without having to leave their homes. The service also allows them to upload images that can support their doctor consultation, and a summary of the visit can be shared with their primary care provider.
  • Affordable and Reliable Coverage
    Ambetter from Sunflower Health Plan provides coverage for all essential health benefits, including preventive and wellness services, maternity and newborn care, pediatric services, mental health services, hospitalizations, and prescription drug coverage. Some plans also include dental and vision coverage. Amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, Ambetter from Sunflower Health Plan also covers the cost of COVID-19 tests and the associated physician's visit when medically appropriate.
  • Online Enrollment Assistance
    Through the Ambetter from Sunflower Health Plan website https://ambetter.sunflowerhealthplan.com/, people can browse and compare coverage options, determine their eligibility for financial subsidies, and directly enroll in coverage – all from one place. The platform is built for mobile access as well, so people can enroll using their smartphones. If a person is unable to complete enrollment all at once, the system will save their progress and provide reminders to finish enrollment at their convenience.
