Other Billing Changes• IBC will use Mellon Bank for ACH e-Bill payment processing (transparent to

the customer). After migration, customers will be notified of new lockboxes. New payment instructions will be included on new invoices with coupon remittances.

• Retroactivity for enrollment periods prior to migration will be applied manually to the new invoice.

• IBC will eliminate the ZipCheck recurring payment option for direct pay (individual) customers on January 1, 2014 for migrating business only. Non-Medicare direct pay customers will have the option of moving to e-Bill/EFT as a new payment option.

• Premium payments will be applied to satisfy a specific invoice; payments received will no longer be applied to the oldest outstanding balance.

• Consolidated billing is greatly enhanced and will be a key feature of the new billing system.
