Q: I need to make an appointment with a doctor as soon as possible. How soon can I use a PPO discount card after signing up online?
A: As a practical matter it now takes 3-5 days from the time you enroll in a discount plan online until you have your ID card that is sent by mail. This will change in the future when immediate downloads are available as has become common with health insurance ID cards. In the meanwhile, you can call member services after you enroll and pay for the discount plan for instructions on how to access benefits immediately. If you are using any of the Fortis PPO discount plans at http://www.ehealthdiscountplan.com the member support telephone number is (800) 800-5453. Other telephone numbers are listed at http://www.tonynovak.com/contact-information.htm.
