Anthem Machine Readable Files

Transparency in Coverage (TIC) regulations require health insurers and group health plans to create machine readable files (MRFs) that contain the negotiated rates for in-network providers and allowed amounts derived from historical claims for out-of-network providers and make those files publicly available. A machine-readable file is a digital representation of data or information in a file that can be imported or read by a computer system for further processing without human intervention.

To access Henrico County Anthem MRFs, enter EIN 54-6001344.

Programs & Additional Resources

Medicare eligible retirees will need to enroll for health coverage through the County sponsored enrollment service, Via Benefits (formerly OneExchange) to continue to receive health care coverage through the County. Via Benefits is an experienced, national leader in helping retirees to select and enroll in individual health care plans.

Via Benefits makes enrolling easy for you.

Through Via Benefits, trained and licensed benefit advisors are available to help you and your dependent(s) enroll. You also have access to resources, tools, and support to learn about the Individual Medicare Marketplace plans available in your area. The advisors will work with you to compare plan choices and choose the coverage that best meets your needs and budget.

The Henrico County Benefits Office will notify retirees who are aging into Medicare three (3) months prior to your 65th birthday to provide you with information regarding your Medicare enrollment. Once your information has been received by Via Benefits, they will send information about the enrollment process.

  • After you retire, you can work for any employer that does not participate in the Virginia Retirement System (VRS) and continue to receive your retirement benefits.​
  • If you wish to return to work with the employer from which you retired, you must have a bona fide break in service of at least one full calendar month from your retirement date. This applies to part-time and temporary positions, including ENCORE positions with the County. ​
  • No pre-arrangements to return to work in any capacity should be made.
  • If you return to work full-time with any VRS-covered employer, your retirement benefits will stop, and you will become an active member.​
