World-Class Care

While the health systems in Vivity’s network are based in Los Angeles and Orange Counties, they are known globally for delivering outstanding care

Employees want an easier healthcare journey that is engaging and affordable, and delivers the best care possible. Employers seek lower healthcare costs and want employees to remain healthy and productive. This is what Vivity was designed to do.

The top-ranked health systems in Southern California

Vivity was formed when Anthem came together with several top-ranked, award-winning health systems to change the way healthcare is delivered.

Partners include Cedars-Sinai, Huntington Hospital, MemorialCare Health System, PIH Health, PIH Good Samaritan Hospital, Providence, Torrance Memorial Medical Center, and UCLA Health.

Each is impressive on their own merits — together, they create a truly unique, collaborative level of healthcare.

A member-first experience

Brokers and employers can appreciate how Vivity makes access to care simpler, faster, and more efficient.

Our philosophy puts the patient at the center of everything we do. When members are engaged in their health, it leads to better outcomes and helps keep healthcare costs at bay. This is why Vivity gives its members choices. They can select their primary care physician (PCP) to serve as their main doctor, but they are not restricted to a particular medical group.

To make the healthcare journey simpler, Vivity allows members to ask their PCP for a referral to any specialty in the network. We also give them the ability to self-refer for care in certain circumstances though innovative programs and services such as:

 

Direct access

Members can refer themselves to dermatologists; ear, nose, and throat doctors; OB-GYNs; and allergists in their medical group.

Speedy referral

Doctors can refer members to a variety of specialists without preauthorization.

 

24/7 NurseLine

Registered nurses are available by phone for support to answer members’ health questions.

Physician directed access

Unique to Vivity, this allows members to request care from a specialist at a different medical group in the network. Their primary doctor can refer them to that medical group, offering more choice and access to doctors compared to traditional health maintenance organizations.

 

Urgent care access

Unique to Vivity, urgent care access lets members go to any urgent care in the Vivity network. They will only have to pay their copay for care. They do not need to pay the full amount for care upfront.

Away-from-home access

Unique to Vivity, the away-from-home access benefit is available within the state of California. For example, if members in Southern California have college students in Northern California, those students are covered. This benefit is usually only available to out-of-state students.

 

A dedicated concierge team

Vivity provides members with personalized support for services, including finding a doctor, understanding prescriptions, or finding out how much they may need to pay for their next visit. A team member can also help quickly resolve issues that may arise in accessing their benefits or care.

24/7 telehealth online

With LiveHealth Online members can have virtual visits with a PCP by using each health system’s telehealth option. They can also have video visits with a doctor for the same copay as an office visit or receive behavioral healthcare on LiveHealth Online Psychology — all by using a smartphone, tablet, or computer.

 

The free mobile app

Members have access to digital ID cards and coverage information, telehealth visits, online health assessments, and coaching and wellness messages.

A groundbreaking health plan with simple copays and no deductibles*

What really sets Vivity apart from traditional health maintenance organizations?

When members see one of our doctors or use a service, they know the cost, if any, ahead of time. Members pay a copay through a flat-fee system. This helps make payments more predictable.

Once they pay their copay for care, Vivity pays the rest. Since there are no deductibles or hidden costs, there are no surprises*.

Contact your Anthem representative for more information.

*Some Small Group plans have a low deductible.

Collaboration. Coordination. Communication.

Clinical and technological efficiencies allow Vivity to deliver the highest quality, affordable care.

Working in silos does not produce excellent, compassionate, effective, and cost-efficient healthcare. Anthem’s technology connects all of the health systems in the Vivity network, creating a leading-edge, integrated approach. This means providers get a more complete picture of each patient's health, resulting in more holistic, personal, and coordinated care.

Teamwork is part of what makes Vivity unique. Providers and professionals across the Vivity network share best practices to help all parts of Vivity continually improve and provide members with access to the best of care.

They also use Anthem’s digital tools to securely share health information across our network.

When everyone involved has a more-complete picture of a member’s health, they get better care.
