Announcement
On February 21, 2024, vendor, Change Healthcare disclosed a cyber security incident that had ramifications across the whole health care industry. Change Healthcare is a widely used provider of health care billing and data systems. The Statewide Benefits Office (SBO) has recently learned that letters are being mailed to impacted members, and, as a result, SBO is receiving calls and emails seeking verification. Due to the sheer magnitude of this incident, Change Healthcare has not been able to provide our third-party administrators with member impact reports; therefore, SBO will not be able to assist organizations/members with verifying member impact or with the specifics of the data which was subject to the breach. The letter being mailed to impacted members offers 2 years of free credit monitoring. Individuals receiving the communication are encouraged by SBO to review and take action as outlined in the letter.
In recent months, Philips Respironics learned that a sound-reduction foam used in some of their Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) or Bi-level Positive Airway Pressure (BiPAP) machines could degrade into small particles or give off certain chemicals, and issued a voluntary recall of these machines in June 2021. If you have purchased a CPAP or BiPAP machine or any related supplies within the past 5 years you will receive a letter from Highmark explaining the recall and instructing you what to do next if you are affected.
The Special Medicfill Plan is funded by the State of Delaware Group Health Fund through health premiums paid by you and the State. This plan is administered by Highmark Delaware.
