  • HOW TO ACCESS ANTHEM.COM/KEHP WEBSITE

    Any employee enrolled in a KEHP health plan can go to the website anthem.com/kehp.  It is important to make sure that /kehp is typed in. (Employees who waive insurance are not eligible for this benefit.  They would need to contact their benefits website for their specific information.  Most plans have these services available.)

    It is best to register on the website, but if not, you can look as a guest.  In the top left of the home page is the MENU.  Click on Find Care.  You can find a doctor, pharmacy, hospital or urgent care.  If you scroll down further, there is a link to LiveHealth Online Behavioral Health Support.  If you enter your zip code, you can find care based on the selection.  

    Next to each provider's name is a View Details button that will tell them the location, specialty, contact information, etc.  It also gives a map of where they are located.  As you can see, there are 571 listed for our area, so each employee should look through the list to better fit their needs.
