Question

Is this a bill?

Answer

No. This statement explains how your health plan processed a claim. It is not a request for payment. If you receive a bill from your provider, compare it with this statement.

Protection

Extra protection when something doesn't look right.

Fraud monitoring and card controls, built into the account.

ChapterOne watches your debit card activity and tells you when a transaction looks out of place.

  • See the charge: merchant, amount, and when.
  • Ask what it is, and get a plain-language answer.
  • Freeze the card yourself, and unfreeze it just as fast.
