Manage Migraine Headaches Now
with New Program

  With migraines ranking in the top 20 of the world’s most disabling medical illnesses, there’s no doubt that someone you know has or will suffer from this severe headache pain. Even though most migraine sufferers experience attacks once or twice a month, there are about 12 million Americans who have attacks on an almost daily basis. Because of these unnerving statistics, the Christian Brothers Employee Benefit Trust has joined with Principal Life Insurance Company to offer you the Migraine Care Program.

Migraine Care Program
Anyone who suffers with migraines knows that the disabling pain affects everything from productivity at work, to care for their families and meeting social obligations, to the quality of life they lead. The Migraine Care Program provides support and relief to health plan members who experience migraine pain.

   

 

Did You Know...
Nearly 1 in 4 U.S.
households include
someone who
suffers with
migraine headaches.
 

Members who have been identified as at risk for migraine-related events through a review of inpatient hospital admission or emergency room visits, will be contacted by the Principal Life Insurance Company to participate in the Migraine Care Program.  If members feel they are a match for this program, they may also self-enroll.

Once enrolled in the program, migraine sufferers will receive a letter and educational materials, and may also be contacted by a registered nurse to provide ongoing one-on-one support and education.  Migraine sufferers will also have access to a toll-free number to learn more about their illness and ask as many questions as they may have.

Take Control
The Migraine Care Program focuses on each case individually to help develop potential ways to reduce migraine frequency and severity. When the sufferer understands how to manage their migraine, they will be better equipped in the future to prevent the severe pain from occurring, giving them a fresh start to living a healthy and headache-free life.
 


Members receive targeted education on:

  • Migraine facts, phases, signs, and symptoms
  • Migraine triggers such as lifestyle, diet, and environment
  • Migraine medications’ therapeutic value and potential side effects
  • Migraine self-management
If you are eligible to participate in the Migraine Care Program, you will be contacted directly by mail. To self enroll or to request a Migraine Tool-Kit, please call 1-800-533-5044. We encourage you to take advantage of the valuable resources offered through this program.
