The Gulf Coast Medical Management team services are available to all Sarasota Memorial Health Care System employees and their dependents
enrolled in the hospital health plans. We encourage you to take advantage of the assistance offered by the Pharmacy Case Manager and Chronic Disease/Complex Care Advocate.
These programs are available to all those enrolled in the Basic, Comprehensive, and Extended Plans free of charge.
What is Meritain?
Meritain is not the employee health insurance company. Sarasota Memorial Health Care System offers self-insured health plans to its employees. SMHCS contracts with Meritain, a third party payor, to pay the healthcare claims generated by the employees and their dependents.
Always bring your insurance cards to all appointments.
We encourage all SMHCS employees to use the Meritain website for accessing information regarding eligibility and claims processing status.
