3 Essential Health Benefits

The following plans must cover EHBs: Non-grandfathered health insurance plans in the individual and small group markets both inside and outside the Exchange Medicaid benchmark and benchmark-equivalent and Basic Health Programs EHBs for Pediatric Services in Pennsylvania are defined by a different benchmark plan than medical Dental – FEDVIP (MetLife – High Option) Vision – FEDVIP (BlueVision – High Option) Options for the Dental Essential Health Benefits Package Embedded into medical plans and become part of a single risk pool in the medical filing Offer a stand alone plan that is solely to cover the EHB package as an add-on to a member’s medical plan Regardless of how it is offered, it is ultimately the health plan who is responsible for reminding the member they must have the dental component for all members under the age of 19.

5 Out-of-Pocket Maximums
Dental Benefit All monies paid for dental services roll up to the aggregate Out-of-Pocket (OOP) Maximum There is a separate sub-deductible for Class II and Class III services Orthodontia benefit is tied to the medical deductible See Orthodontia Requirements for Medical Necessity in Pennsylvania Dental Benefits are covered through UPMC Dental Advantage Out-of-Pocket Maximums Annual Out-of-Pocket Maximum is tied in with the bundled medical plan and applies to all covered services for medically necessary treatment

6 Pediatric Dental Coverage

7 Orthodontic Medical Necessity Requirements
To comply with Essential Health Benefits dental program guidelines for Pennsylvania, UPMC Health Plan recommends that orthodontists complete something similar to the Orthodontic Decision Checklist (ODC) to determine medical necessity for enrolled members. Completing the ODC will help to ensure unnecessary treatment is not performed before the final medical necessity determination is made by UPMC Health Plan. All anticipated treatment phases with a total case fee Salzmann Index (reflecting a score of 25 or higher) If one of the questions 2-8 on the ODC is not a “yes” response, most likely the orthodontic case will not meet medical necessity. As a reminder, all orthodontic services for members require prior approval.

8 Vision Benefit All monies paid for vision services roll up to the aggregate Out-of-Pocket (OOP) Maximum Pediatric Benefits include: Yearly vision exam at no cost (in-network) Frames and Lenses or Medically Necessary Contacts once every 12 months (in-network) Benefits will be covered through UPMC Vision Advantage

12 New Product Design - HMO
Members are required to select a PCP; the PCP helps members coordinate their care. Many services are not subject to the deductible, such as prescription drugs, PCP and specialist visits, and emergency care. Members must receive care from network physicians and facilities in order to receive coverage (unless they are traveling outside the service area). Preventive care is covered at 100 percent. The pharmacy benefit includes certain generic drugs at no cost to the member — select contraceptives, oral hypertensive agents, antibiotics, and some preventive medications.

13 New Benefit Design - First 3 Plan
The First 3 visits to the PCP are covered without the deductible applying Preventive care is covered at 100 percent All benefits are covered 100% after deductible with exception of the first 3 PCP visits and e-visits
