| The AmeriPlan Health® discount card program offers a reduction in the cost of medical services. AmeriPlan Health® is not insurance, nor is it an alternative to or substitution for insurance coverage. Since it is not health insurance, members are responsible for payment at point of service of discount health care fees incurred. If you currently have insurance, you should be aware that canceling that policy often times makes it difficult to later obtain coverage. AmeriPlan Health® recommends that you speak to your insurance agent or your company's insurance administrator before canceling any health insurance policy for any reason. |
