Set up recurring payments (autopay)

Your premium payment can be automatically withdrawn from your bank account each month through electronic funds transfer (EFT) or charged to a credit card.

How to set up recurring payments:

Using a Credit Card

  • To set up or change your payment to be charged to a credit card, log in to your member account and click Pay My Premium.
  • Setting up recurring payments with a credit card must be done in your Priority Health member account.

Using EFT

  • To set up or change your payment to EFT, log in to your member account and click Pay My Premium.
  • EFTs are drafted on the first business day of a month, whether the EFT is set up as monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually.

Important dates to note for setting up recurring payments:

If you enroll before the 19th of the month

  1. If you enroll in autopay before the 19th of the month, your payment will be drafted the following month.
  2. You're all set -- your autopay is set up and will reoccur each month.

Example: You enroll in autopay on July 9. Your August payment will automatically be drafted from your bank account, in addition to the subsequent months.

If you enroll after the 20th of the month

  1. If you set up autopay after the 20th of the month, your autopayment will not become effective for 2 months.
  2. Next steps: You must pay your monthly balance with a one-time payment. Log into your member account and pay by credit card, debit card or bank account.

Example: You enroll in auto pay on August 25, therefore your auto payments will not begin until October. You will need to use the one-time payment option to pay your September premium payment.

Non-sufficient funds for EFT payments

If your account doesn't have enough money to cover your premium, Priority Health receives a non-sufficient funds (NSF) notice from your bank. As a result, you will be charged an extra $25 to resubmit the check/EFT payment.
