Get Started for Knee and Hip Joint Replacements
Mayo Clinic has served humanity through hope and healing for more than 150 years.
If you have been told that a knee replacement or a hip replacement might help you, you may be eligible for enhanced benefits.
Step 1:
Check to see that you are enrolled in an eligible Walmart Inc. Associates' Health and Welfare Plan as your primary medical coverage:
- Banner Accountable Care Plan (ACP)
- Emory ACP
- HRA High Plan
- HRA Plan
- HSA Plan
- Memorial Hermann ACP
- Mercy Northwest Arkansas ACP
- Mercy Oklahoma ACP
- Mercy Springfield ACP

- Ochsner ACP

Step 2:
Call your health care adviser at the number on the back of your medical plan ID card to begin the Centers of Excellence process. The adviser will first verify your plan eligibility, and then will obtain some basic information from you. Next the advisor will send your information to Health Design Plus to get started.
Step 3:
Health Design Plus will send you a packet of forms to complete. The forms include authorizations for your medical records to be sent to Mayo Clinic by each provider who has participated in your care.
Step 4:
Continue your current care path with your home physician while Mayo Clinic gathers your records. When Mayo Clinic schedules an on-site visit, you and a care companion may be eligible to travel to Mayo Clinic and have your travel and lodging expenses covered.
