Advanced Benefits Planning
Health, Dental, and Vision Benefits

Guidelines

Effective November 1, 2002 Wright State University has designated Advanced Benefit Planning, Inc. (ABP) as our exclusive partner for medical, dental and vision insurance benefits consultation. Our partnership with Advanced Benefit Planning, Inc. is administered by the Department of Human Resources.

It is our intention in contracting with Anthem, Delta Dental and Vision Service Plan plus partnering with ABP that you receive the full value of the benefits to which you are entitled. For your convenience in getting answers to your medical, dental and vision benefit questions, the links below include carrier information, a benefit inquiry form, a medical release form and answers to questions that you may have.

Step 1 The first step in getting answers to your questions is a telephone call or website contact with the carriers. We expect that most of your questions will be answered through the carrier’s customer service department. Go to the link below for carrier contact information.

Step 2 The second step, should your inquiry need a higher level of expertise, is to contact Advanced Benefit Planning, Inc. (ABP). ABP may be contacted by telephone or by completing and sending by e-mail, by fax or by mail a Benefit Inquiry Form. Go to the Benefit Inquiry Form link below.

If your inquiry in any way requires the discussion by ABP with a doctor’s office, hospital, lab, etc. regarding a medical service provided or clarification of a treatment rendered, it will be necessary for you to complete a Medical Release Form. Go to the ABP Medical Release Form link below to print a Medical Release Form. Completing the form will require your signature. ABP’s fax number is: (937) 294-4579.

The Questions and Answers section should provide answers to many of your initial questions. For clarification or more information, please e-mail or call your HR Operations Analyst Barbara Gullett, at (937) 775-2373, Beth Gisewite, at (937) 775-4975, Debra Thomas at (937) 775-4223 or Brenda Williams at (937) 775-4220.

Please remember the terms of Wright State’s partnership with ABP require that you contact the carrier first and then ABP. Human Resources staff remain available to provide guidance if the inquiry should in your view remain unresolved and for assistance with medical, dental and vision enrollment questions, the group life insurance and long-term disability insurance benefits as well as with our retirement plans.
