15 COMMONLY USED TERMS (1) Certificate of Creditable (Prior) Coverage: document detailing the period of prior coverage for a new employee. It is used for the purpose of determining creditable coverage under HIPAA regulations. If there is a break of 63 days or more since prior coverage, Pre-existing limitation will apply to participants over19 years of age Preauthorization: An authorization that must be obtained from carrier prior to inpatient medical procedures only. (This is not the same as referral – PPO’s do not require referral) Contracted Rate or Allowed Amount: The discounted rate that an in-network provider has agreed to accept for services rendered. The contracted rate is subject to deductibles and coinsurance whenever applicable Member Health Statement (MHS): Comprehensive monthly statement of claim activity in last 28 days, explanation of benefits (EOB) paid sent by insurance companies to enrollees. MHS provides necessary information about claim payment information and patient responsibility amounts, deductible and out-of-pocket accumulation, and tips to live healthier CCC what is it, why do I need it? Our plans have a pre existing condition limitation. Proof of prior coverage for one year will waive the PE. Period of lesser time will waive the PE for that time period. If you were insured under several different plans in the last year you will need a CC for each plan. These are normally issued to you within 30 days of your plan termination. If you didn’t get one or threw it out you will need to contact the prior carrier and request another one. Make a copy and send it here and we will transmit to BCBS. Ex of PE diabetes, HBP, high cholesterol, epilepsy. Non PE broken arm appendicitis, flu Pre-authorization for planned surgery your surgical coordinator from the MDs office usually handles but it is suggested you confirm that it has been done For emergency admissions you or a family member should call BCBSFL to tell them of your admission If you are a single EE without family your department can let us know of your admission to the hospital and we will make the call. Unauthorized hospital confinement can result in you being held responsible for the entire cost of the confinement Contracted amount examples Ov 85 allowed % 16.72 OV 60 allowed % 6.55; OV 90 A= =11.90 6, A =2, % =1,556.80

16 Member Health Statement
Every month you will receive one of these statements consisting of approximately six (6) pages containing health tips, definition of terms, right to appeal information, deductible accumulation status, and coupons for healthy products and claim activity. A representation of 3 of these pages is condensed on this slide. The claim activity portion indicates date(s) of service a description of the service [lab, x-ray, surgery, hospital stay, etc., the amount billed and the Amount Allowed. I referred to the Allowed or contracted rate for in-network providers on the prior slide. The reason this is so important to you is because it is tied directly to the Member Responsibility or the ‘You Owe’ amount. This is where your wallet is impacted. Never pay an in-network provider more than the ‘You Owe’ amount. Should you encounter an in-network provider who balance bills please contact the Florida Blue customer service and allow their Provider Relations folks to intercede on your behalf. The other information on the MHS slide will include Smart Tips such as new tools on WebMD including personal health assessment, health trackers, symptom checker, treatment cost advisor, hospital advisor, creating your own medical expense record and much more. Please review your MHS each month when you receive it.

17 Saving Tips – Use Your Plan Wisely Pay Only the Contracted Amount of Your Out-of-Pocket Expenses!
Recently, hospital systems have been purchasing office practices and billing insurance for outpatient hospital visits instead of an office visit If billed for a “facility fee” for an office visit OR billed for an annual physical/annual gynecological exam, please advocate on your behalf and contact Florida Blue™ Customer Service at and have the claims properly adjusted For wellness visits, make sure you have a discussion with your doctor/office staff to have the visit filed as a wellness claim Review Member Health Statements available to you at and pay your provider based on the information indicated on the statement

18 COMMONLY USED TERMS (2) Co-pay: A flat fee charged to an insured employee as specified by the plan. A Co-pay accumulates towards the out-of-pocket maximum, but not the deductible Co-insurance: The employee portion of the health expense for services such as, but not limited to, facility/hospital charges, laboratory charges, physician services (surgery, anesthesia, radiology, pathology, etc.). Co-insurance DOES accumulate toward out-of-pocket maximum Deductible: A dollar amount that must be paid by the insured for health or dental services before a claim becomes payable by the carrier. The deductible DOES accumulate toward out-of-pocket maximum Plan Year Out-of-Pocket Maximum: The maximum amount of deductible and coinsurance during any Plan Year that you pay before the Plan begins to pay 100% of Covered Expenses for the balance of the Plan Year Centers of Excellence: Preferred places of care with the best outcomes, finest operational standings and best patient care Co-pay for office visit $20 or $30 depending on whether or not you see a family practitioner or specialist. Or a co-pay on prescriptions. You are expected to pay the co-pay at the time of service. Co-insurance -either 20% or 30% in-network depending on the plan. It is 30% for the PPO 70 plan and20% for the PPO Risk Reward Plan. Deductible- just like the deductible on your auto insurance. Depending on your plan enrollment [PPO 70 or PPO Risk Reward], in-network is $1, or $2, for individual or $1, or $4, family. Out-of network deductibles are significantly higher therefore you are encouraged to utilize in-network providers. Plan Year Out-of-Pocket Maximum- I will read the bullet point and say if you are in the PPO 70 plan it is 3k individual or 6k family and for the PPO R&R 3,500 individual or 7k family. We will touch on this in more detail on a subsequent slide. Examples of Centers of Excellence are in categories such as Bariatric Surgery, Cardiac Care, complex and Rare Cancers or organ transplants. You can see extensive lists of these centers either in the summary plan document [SPD] available on-line either via the link on the Benefits web page or through the reference center on the ICUBA Benefits portal or speak with a Florida Blue Health Coach or Medical Case Manager.

22 MAKING A CHOICE Calculate Your Maximum Financial Risk
Annual Premium + Out of Pocket Maximum + Co-pays (you estimate these) - HRA Contributions = Total Financial Risk When you are making your decision you need to consider if you can afford the plan. The annual premium for the PPO 70 family plan is $12, If you make 20k or 35k etc you may not be able to pay the premium and your taxes, etc. You need to consider one of the other plans offered. If you select a benefit that will result in a negative pay you will be contacted to select another plan as we can’t allow a negative pay. Not being able to afford health plan is not an allowable reason to change health plans outside of open enrollment. If you call the benefits office in 2 or 3 months and tell us you now realize the plan costs too much we are not permitted by the IRS to allow de-enrollment Select carefully, if your election is too costly it is not be possible to change election during the new Plan Year.

Some generics use a brand name instead of a chemical name. Both have the lowest co-pay. 2nd Tier: Preferred $27/50/60 Medications in this tier have been selected by your pharmacy benefit plan as preferred brand drugs. These drugs have higher co- pays than generics but are less costly than non-preferred medications on the third tier. 3rd Tier: Nonpreferred $60/120/145 Because a generic version or a second-tier alternative is available, non-preferred medications have the highest co-pays and are not listed on the Preferred Medication List.
