As we turn the calendar to a new year, there are enhancements and changes to your medical benefits that took effect on January 1, 2021. There is a new Medical Faculty Associates (MFA) benefit coverage tier in the GW medical plans, providing GW medical plan participants with lower copays and coinsurance when visiting a GW MFA provider. The MFA tier applies to professional charges by MFA providers. Please note that MFA behavioral health providers continue to be out-of-network.
GW medical plan participants will now also have access to a direct phone line (202) 677- 6000 to schedule appointments with MFA providers.
Most changes made to your benefits during Open Enrollment 2021 this past October will be reflected in your January paystub. Be sure to check that your deductions on your paystub match your confirmation statement from EasyEnroll. If you have questions, please contact Benefits at benefits@gwu.edu or at 571.553.8382
If you haven’t yet, please review the Benefits Tips and Reminders resource to see how to access your ID cards, online accounts, and find instructions on how to submit 2020 HCFSA and DCFSA eligible expenses for reimbursement.
