2. Prestige Health Choice • Who we are • At Prestige Health Choice, we don’t just want to build a better health plan – we want to make getting care a priority. We believe that every person deserves respect and quality care. That’s our promise – and we’re working to deliver on that promise every day. • What makes us different • Prestige is owned in part by Community Health Centers (Federally Qualified Health Centers – FQHCs). These non-profit health centers and their doctors share our mission to improve the health of our members. Many of these centers have served their communities for over forty years, giving care to patients who need it the most. Our doctor-owners serve over 350,000 Floridians – most of whom have no insurance.

3. Medicaid Overview • Prestige serves both adults and children eligible to participate in Florida’s Medicaid Program. • In addition to traditional Medicaid coverage, additional coverage* includes: • Adult Dental Services • Adult Vision Services • Adult Hearing Services • Over-the-Counter Vitamins, Medicines and Health Supplies *Coverage is subject to change • No Co-Payments, Coinsurance or Deductibles.

4. Member Identification and Eligibility Verification • Prestige Health Choice member eligibility varies by month. Therefore, each participating provider is responsible for verifying member eligibility with Prestige before providing services. Eligibility may be verified by visiting the Provider Portal of Prestige Health Choice’s website at www.prestigehealthchoice.com, via the Availity Portal at www.availity.net or by calling Provider Services at 1-800-617-5727. • If you have questions or need assistance you can contact the Availity support team at 1-800-282-4548 or you may email them at support@availity.com • Please note that the presentation of a Prestige Health Choice ID card is not sole proof that a person is currently enrolled in Prestige. For example, when a member becomes ineligible for Medicaid, the member does not return the Prestige Health Choice membership card. Providers should request a picture ID to verify that the person presenting is the person named on the ID card. Services may be delayed being rendered, if the provider suspects the presenting person is not the card owner and no other ID can be provided, except for emergent situations. If providers suspect a non-eligible person is using a member’s ID card, please report the occurrence to Prestige Health Choice’s Fraud and Abuse Hotline at 1-866-833-9718. .
