11 Comparing the Medical Plan Options PPOEPO Lumenos HRA PlanHMO I want to choose a PCP to coordinate all my care and specialist referrals (in most cases) I want to visit any provider I choose, without referrals I want to be able to go out of network, even if its at a higher cost (but still covered) I want Northrop Grumman to help me pay for some of my expenses through a company- funded HRA

12 Comparing the Medical Plan Options PPOEPO Lumenos HRA PlanHMO I want 100% coverage for preventive care (after a small copay) I want the lowest paycheck contributions I am worried about health care costs rising, and want a plan that helps me manage that better

13 Example: Sharon Average user of health care benefits Family coverage Potential health care services/needs (with assumed actual cost of service): –Three routine preventive care visits ($125 each) –Two specialist visits ($175 each) –20 physical therapy visits for treating sports-related injury ($100 per visit) –Two generic maintenance prescriptions filled monthly ($20 each per month) –One preferred brand prescription ($60)

14 Lumenos HRA Plan Preferred PPOPremium PPO Preventive care$0 + 3 $20 copay = $ $15 copay = $45 + Specialist visit 2 $175 per visit = $ $40 copay = $ $30 copay = $60 + Physical therapy 20 $100 per visit = $2,000 5 $100 per visit up to individual annual deductible = $500 + Remaining 15 10% coinsurance per visit = $150 3 $100 per visit up to individual annual deductible = $300 + Remaining 17 10% coinsurance per visit = $170 * This example assumes in-network services only. Example: Sharons Costs

15 Lumenos HRA Plan Preferred PPOPremium PPO Prescription drugs 2 generic Rx each month for 12 $20 retail cost = $ preferred brand Rx at $60 retail cost = $60 2 generic Rx each month for 12 $5 copay = $ preferred brand Rx at $20 copay = $20 2 generic Rx each month for 12 $5 copay = $ preferred brand Rx at $20 copay = $20 Total $2,890$930$715 Example: Sharons Costs (cont.)

16 Lumenos HRA Plan Preferred PPO Premium PPO Amount covered by Health Reimbursement Account (HRA) funded by Northrop Grumman to help pay for cost of coverage $2,000 (Sharons total HRA at the beginning of the plan year is $2,000) $0 Total out-of-pocket for Sharon after using HRA $890$930$715 Annual paycheck cost$$$$$$ Example: Sharons Costs (cont.)
