Students covered wherever they go to school
MVP has a benefit for college students covered by your MVP rider. While your kids are away at college, they’ll be covered under your plan both at home and away. This benefit includes $2,500 annually in doctor visits, lab work and physical therapy (everything except preventive care, which must be done through the Primary Care Physician at home). Of course, emergencies are always covered. Click here to go to our main site for more information or to fill out a student waiver.

Prescription drug coverage
If you are eligible for prescription drug benefits through MVP, you’ll be covered for a wide range of prescription medications. Plus, with MVP, you’ll have hundreds of participating pharmacies where you can fill your prescription at your convenience. And now, for prescriptions filled at the pharmacy a $10 (generic), $30 (formulary brand name) or $50 (non-formulary) copayment applies for each 30-day supply. Or, through our mail order program, receive a 90-day supply for the cost of two copayments.

Straight talk about quality
When choosing health care, it all comes down to quality. The quality of coverage...the quality of member service...the quality of care. In all of these extremely important areas, MVP is ranked among the best by leading national organizations and magazines – year after year. And our commitment to quality has made MVP one of the fastest-growing health plans in the Northeast.

The MVP HMO has earned “Excellent” accreditation status from the National Commitee for Quality Assurance (NCQA). Visit ncqa.org for details.

We are also proud that our innovative Diabetes Management Program was recognized in the National Exemplary Practice competition – making us one of only two managed care organizations nationwide to earn this honor.

In everything we do, it’s all about quality...because it’s all about you.

MVP believes the more we tell you about us, the better you’ll be able to compare us to other health care options. You may want to download MVP’s 2006 quality of care report (PDF), exactly as it was reported to our participating physicians. We’re proud of our quality report; we’re happy to share it with you. If you would like to receive a paper copy of the report, please contact our Quality Improvement Department at 1-800-777-4793, ext. 2602.

This is the year. MVP is the plan. Now is the time to join.
