Philadelphia American Life Member User Guide

Your NAHP Alternative Health Plan is simply a bundle of products that when stacked together provide comprehensive health coverage at significantly lower prices. It is NOT an “all in one” - - that is Obamacare with all its problems. Your plan includes a Philadelphia American Fixed Benefit plan combined with other supplemental plans from Philadelphia American and/or other companies on our US Supplemental Coverage page. 

To get the most out of this plan, it takes a little effort on behalf of the member. It is very important that you read the Outlines of Coverage so that you better understand the coverage. However, while it may take a little getting used to, the plan is simple and will save you a ton of money. It consists of the following:

Philadelphia American (PALIC) Fixed Benefit Plan

The Philadelphia American Fixed Benefit health plan provides you coverage for inpatient and outpatient services. You can use any provider you want, but using a network provider lowers your out of pocket costs by providing a pre-negotiated rate on services.

PALIC Additional Plan Information

For additional information please go to our Philadelphia American pageThey have asked us not to leave their plan brochures on our Philadelphia American page. So, if you need another copy of your plan's outline of coverage, just let me know and I will forward a link to download a plan brochure for your specific plan. 

PALIC PPO Network

The Philadelphia American Fixed Benefit plans allow you to go to any provider without restriction. However, these Fixed Benefit plans also include the PHCS/Multiplan nationwide PPO network. If you see in network providers, you are going to see significant discounts on the bills you receive.

Here are instructions to look up providers. First go to:

http://www.neweralife.com

In the top right corner, click the dropdown that says “Provider Search.” Choose the plan you have. Either Health Saver Plus (HSP) Gold, HSP Gold with Specified Disease, Health Choice Select or Health Saver Plus III.

For HSP Gold, Health Choice Select and Health Saver Plus III, a new window will open with two buttons to enter as a guest or a policy holder. Choose to enter as a guest. From here you can search using multiple different criteria. 

IMPORTANT NOTEWhen you have the HSP Gold with Specified Disease this gives you access to the full PHCS PPO network, which is larger than the network used by the Fixed Benefit plans (above). This also means that the link to look up providers will open a different website than the other plans. On this site, first click "OK" at the bottom. Next click "Enter Zip" to enter your zip code. Then, enter the provider information in the search bar and click to search. After that you can adjust your search using the navigation tools that come up.  

Please let me know if you need help!
