  • UMR Plan Advisors will be your dedicated Medical Plan member services contacts and umr.com will be your member portal.
    New medical plan ID cards will be issued by UMR including the new member services information.
    Cards should arrive in your mail in mid- to late December. For all other plans, keep your current ID cards.
