Attention, please!
Did you know there is a 12-day rule for terminations? IO must give at least 12 days before termination, and we always end on the last day of the month. Therefore, if you terminate someone 5/25/19, they will not end IO on 5/31/19, their IO coverage will end 6/30/19.
Did you know?
IO team members are traveling the state to educate communities about the benefits of the program. If you would like us to set aside time to talk to you or would like us to attend enrollment meetings, please let us know. Email your presentation, training and/or education requests to IOoutreach@okhca.org. We look forward to working with you!
Don't wait until it's too late!

If an employee will be termed, Employers will receive a notification letter 15 days before the end date. If the employees have documents due, they will receive notification to submit the documentation at least 30 days prior to termination. If the documents are not received in that time frame, the employees will be termed. If an employee is ending, we are unable to release the exact reason to the employer or agent.
Don't forget!
Insure Oklahoma will no longer backdate applications. Please ensure employees have reapplied and have been approved before their eligibility ends to avoid a lapse.
IO program coordinators answer incoming telephone inquiries from employees, employers, insurance agents and participating health care providers. They also determine program eligibility as well as verify and enter data.
