Why Offer Cash Back?

Healthcare costs can vary based on where you receive services. They can also vary between providers of the same type. PEHP rewards you for using lower-cost, in-network providers through a cash back program required by the Utah Legislature through HB 19 from the 2018 General Session. Cash back is a form of shared savings to help you save on your deductibles and co-insurance and keep overall healthcare costs down to help preserve your benefits.

How is Cash Back Determined?

The amount eligible for cash back depends on the amount of savings available for a specific service or medication. Cash back can range between $50 and $2,000 depending on your network.

How to Find & Apply for Cash Back Opportunities

  1. Log in to Your PEHP Account

    To find cash back opportunities, log in to your PEHP account at www.pehp.org. When you log in to your PEHP account, click on the “Find a Doctor or Hospital” from the top menu, then choose your network.

  2. Search for medical services or medications

    Under the “Compare Medical Costs” tab, you can search by medical services. You’ll see cost information for services based on past claims PEHP processed. Your search results will display common services based on the treatment you entered to give you a better idea of total costs at different locations where the service has been performed. For each location, you’ll see a list of providers who have performed your desired treatment. For medications and prices, search under the "Compare Prescription Costs" tab.

  3. See cash back opportunities & apply

    If cash back is available for the service or medication, you’ll see a cash back indicator next to the location and provider name. To qualify for cash back and before receiving services, you must complete the Cash Back Program Application and submit to PEHP via the secure Message Center available when you login to your PEHP account. A Health Benefits Advisor will help you determine where to go for the best value and tell you how much cash back you can expect to receive. When you apply, you’ll have 90 days to get the service done. Once PEHP has processed your claim, please allow up to 60 days to receive your cash back. Please note this is taxable income and FICA is withheld. All PEHP cash back incentives cannot exceed $3,900 per calendar year.
