News and Updates

6/29/2010 Changes are announces for the following plans issued for effective dates beginning on July 1, 2010:

4/28/2010 Centene Corporation, the parent of Celtic Insurance, is now a Fortune 500 Company. Highlights of financial operating results that may be useful to consumers are published in a news article.

4/27/2010 Celticenrollment.com Web site was redesigned for easier user experience and faster loading Web pages to accommodate the growing number of users. We expect that site usage will increase exponentially as health reform measures take effect and large group insurance carriers raise rates at a faster pace than individual medical insurance companies like Celtic Insurance. The eventual termination of the COBRA subsidy will also spur interest of Web browsers seeking lower insurance premiums. We remain committed to a "just the facts" approach free of extra glitter and advertising clutter. Please let us know what you think of the new format.

3/15/2010 Introductory health insurance videos - Three short and simple video presentations are now available to present the basics of Celtic's most popular individual health insurance products. The videos range from 2 minutes to 4 1/2 minutes and may be most valuable to younger insurance buyers who are most accustomed to receiving information through multi-media format rather than in brochure or spreadsheet style. The CelticSaver video explains how Health Savings Account can be combined with insurance to lower premium costs and maximize overall coverage. CelticBasic video explains the trimmed benefits that result in the lowest priced renewable major medical insurance plan. The CeltiCare Preferred video emphasizes the high levels of coverage at affordable prices available to those who are in excellent health at the time of application. The videos do not replace the complete online pricing and coverage disclosures for each of these health plans.

10/13/09 Celtic Insurance Company is not CeltiCare Health Plans of Massachusetts This posting comes from Tony Novak, the principal of OnlineAdviser, based partly on content provided Celtic Insurance Company: Additional disclosure and correction to previous comments is needed with regard to clarification about the companies of Celtic Group and my involvement with them. I market the products of Celtic Insurance company online at Celticenrollment.com and, separately, paid to write about individual insurance issued by the Connector in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts that includes CeltiCare Health Plan of of Massachusetts, but there is no connection between the two companies nor any other connection in my involvement with these companies. Because of the very similar names of the enrollment Web sites (Celticenrollment.com vs. Celticarehealthplan.com) it is important to make extra effort to distinguish between the two companies in order to avoid possible consumer confusion. Celtic Insurance Company and CeltiCare Health Plan of Massachusetts are two different entities, both owned by Celtic Group, that operate independently and the Massachusetts products that I refer to on this Web site and other Web sites are in no way related to the products sold by Celtic Insurance Company. While Celtic does sell an underwritten plan called CeltiCare II or CeltiCare Preferred in 37 states, Celtic Insurance Company is not selling the products in Massachusetts. CeltiCare Health Plans of Massachusetts is the provider for the products in Massachusetts. In a previous posting I indicated that I am the content manager for www.CelticEnrollment.com a national CeltiCare enrollment site which is misleading as Celtic Agents are not licensed or appointed to sell the products being sold by CeltiCare Health Plan of Massachusetts. The comment was meant for disclosure purposes and not meant to imply that I am affiliated with Celtic Insurance Company or CeltiCare Health Plan of Massachusetts or selling the products of that company.

7/1/09 CeltiCare Health Plan of Massachusetts announced that it has received the “Seal of Approval” from the Commonwealth Health Insurance Connector Authority (Connector Authority) for entry into the State’s Commonwealth Choice (CommChoice) program. CeltiCare’s application was unanimously approved by the Connector Authority’s Board at its June meeting. Celticare Health Plan of Massachusetts is not affiliated with Celtic Insurance Company and CeltiCare of Massachusetts products are not available on this Web site.

CommChoice offers affordable, commercial health insurance products to individuals, families, and small employer groups. CommChoice is one of a variety of health insurance programs offered by the Connector Authority under the 2006 Massachusetts Health Care Reform Act.

“We are pleased to receive the Connector Authority’s seal of approval for this important healthcare program,” said Richard Lynch, president and CEO of CeltiCare. “Not only does our participation in the program allow us to extend our reach to cover more individuals and small businesses throughout Massachusetts, but it also reinforces CeltiCare’s long-term commitment to bringing superior value to Massachusetts healthcare consumers.”

Subject to regulatory approval, CeltiCare plans to begin serving CommChoice members on January 1, 2010. CeltiCare will offer the full spectrum of CommChoice benefit plans, including Gold, Silver, Bronze and Young Adults health plans to individuals and families throughout central and eastern Massachusetts.

This is CeltiCare’s second major healthcare initiative with the Connector Authority to provide quality, affordable health options to underserved residents of Massachusetts. CeltiCare was unanimously approved by the Connector Authority’s Board in March for inclusion in the Commonwealth Care program and began serving members on July 1, 2009.

6/15/09 Celticare abortion protests in MA trigger response from OnlineAdviser. Massachusetts anti-abortion protestors say the Celticare administrator has a conflict of interests based on its Catholic ties while insurance companies must provide legally mandated coverage. Celticare Health Plan of Massachusetts is not affiliated with Celtic Insurance Company and CeltiCare of Massachusetts products are not available on this Web site.

6/6/09 Celtic Insurance introduces an exciting new feature called "QuikApproval" for permanent renewable individual health insurance. Within 90 seconds of completion of the online application, the applicant will see should they be approved, declined, or if additional information will be requested with the application. If the application is approved, a written confirmation of coverage can be printed immediately. In addition, height and weight guidelines were revised on to 5/1/09 allow more applicants to be accepted under the preferred range as well as to allow more applicants to be accepted overall at standard and substandard rates. Fewer applicants are denied due to obesity or being underweight. While immediate application approval has been available for limited benefit insurance and short term health insurance for more than ten years, this is the first full widely available major medical insurance plan to offer immediate issue. Coverage details and availability vary from state to-state, so see the home page and online quoting system for more information.

11/15/08 Health Savings Accounts for 2009" forms are in PDF format and can be submitted by fax to (800) 609-0683 for submission. We strongly urge use of the secure online enrollment method rather than the downloaded application forms,

4/4/07 Montana products temporarily removed - Celtic Insurance Company issued a statement this week saying that all of its insurance products are temporarily withdrawn from the state. The statement continued "“We are currently in discussion with the Montana Department of Insurance to gain new product approval for our filing. We are working closely with the Department to ensure a quick reentry into the Montana market.” The move does not affect previously issued policies.

4/1/08 Premium Rates Reduced in Many States - Individual and family health insurance rates in many states are lower for new policies issued effective today. The rate reductions went into effect for AK, AL, AR, CA, CT, DC, FL, GA, IL, IN, IA, LA, MO, MT, NE, NM, OH, PA, SC, TN, TX, WV, WI and WY. The insurance company requested lowered rates for 2008 partly because claims were lower than expected in 2007. Rate changes must be approved by each state's insurance department before they can be offered to the public. Celtic's most popular renewable health insurance plans are "CelticSaver HSA" with a high policy deductible that qualifies for a health savings Account and "Celtic Basic" that provides essential PPO coverage including affordable Rx coverage and doctor visits at a low premium cost. Celtic Insurance traditional (but more expensive) health insurance are increasingly favored by affluent buyers who appreciate the company's stability and service reputation.

3/18/08 Centene Acquires Celtic Group - Celtic Group announced today that it will be acquired by managed care company Centene Corp. Chicago-based Celtic Group Inc., the parent company of Celtic Insurance Company., will continue to operate under its current brand and the operations will remain at its Chicago headquarters. Frederick Manning will remain with the organization as president and CEO of Celtic and executive vice president of Centene. The corporate reorganization is not expected to effect Celtic Insurance products for individuals and families. Centene is based in St. Louis-based and operates health plans in Georgia, Indiana, New Jersey, Ohio, Texas and Wisconsin as well as providing managed care programs and related services to individuals under Medicaid. The acquisition is expected to result in increased economies in managing health care costs and enable Centene to address the full scope of options for the growing number of uninsured individuals in these market areas.
