FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is The Difference Card?

The Difference Card is an employer funded benefit that goes hand-in-hand with your medical insurance provider. It works by paying portions of copays and deductibles you may incur through your health insurance.

How do I use my Difference Card?

You can swipe your Difference Card at any eligible doctors’ offices for your copays. You may also be able to use your Difference Card to pay for prescriptions at the pharmacy. Check your Difference Card Summary of Benefits for details.

What if my doctor doesn’t accept credit cards, or what if I forget to bring my Difference Card to my doctor appointment?

If you don’t have your card with you or if your doctor doesn’t accept credit cards, pay the entire copay in full and the Difference Card will reimburse you for your portion. Be sure to get a receipt from your doctor and submit that, along with a Reimbursement Form to the Difference Card.

What if my Difference Card is declined at the doctor’s office?

Make sure the card is being swiped for the correct amount.The amount allowed for each swipe is listed in the “YOU PAY” column of your Summary of Benefits. If you have any trouble when using your card, you can always call Difference Card Member Services at 888-343-2110 and they will be happy to assist you.
