Washington State Lifewise Help 2021.





 At the Wenatchee Enrollment Center, we assist with every possible plan. We are one of the eleven full service enrollment centers for the Washington Healthplanfinder. One of the three biggest individual health insurance plans is Lifewise in our area. We get a lot of questions and this blog should answer the questions. 

If you do not have a broker like Suzie or Matt McColm assigned to your account then take time to do so right now. 

By taking the 5 minutes to connect, it helps us keep our lights on and provide assistance throughout the year. Call the Washington Healthplanfinder at: 1-855-923-4633.

If you want to pay your Bill by phone at 866-327-8016 or online at www.lifewise.com/bill . Note if you enrolled today then wait until after Friday Night's batch upload and call in on Tuesday. That should give them enough time to have you in their system. 

If you are traveling out of state or country then you may wish to consider a travel plan. We have an exchange set up for those needs as well and use them when we travel outside of network.
