Healthcare Bluebook Means Cash Rewards

A service offered through our Watco benefits program allows team members who are enrolled in a Watco health insurance plan to be rewarded for choosing lower-cost options for medical procedures or facilities.

Healthcare Bluebook is a tool you can use to find pricing for Watco-approved services. Ultrasounds, X-rays, CT scans, and imaging are among the things listed in the app. So are many of the -oscopies and -ectomies you might search for, along with other surgeries. When you couple a Fair Price™ procedure with a Fair Price facility, which are designed with a green $, you are eligible to earn the reward amount shown.

For comparison, you will also see services determined to be “Above Fair Price” (yellow) and “High Price” (red). In-network procedures can vary by over 500%, depending on the facility you choose. So it’s key to choose the Fair Price procedure and facility to receive a reward.

The rewards you earn go into your HRA or HSA benefit account. Deposits to your account typically occur once a month, possibly as much as three months after a procedure.

To get started, download the app to your phone from the Apple App Store or Google play. (When asked for a mobile code, use “Watco.”) For additional help using the app, call (800) 875-9717. Or go to go.watco.com. Select NueSynergy, then Healthcare Bluebook.

When you find a service on HealthCare Bluebook and use a Fair Price facility, you’re eligible for a reward that will be credited to your Watco HSA or HRA benefit account with NueSynergy.
