Employee and spouse can each earn this. (Cigna is also offering additional incentives.) – SHBP credits the HRA account each year to help pay covered medical expenses

Features of the HRA Plan Low employee premiums HRA credits each year that pay for covered initial charges, whether medical or pharmacy expenses. These dollars also reduce your deductible and maximum out-of-pocket expenses You do not pay co-pays under this plan but co-insurance whether it is for your prescription drugs, office visits or surgery Any dollars not used at the end of the year roll over to the next year 100 percent coverage for preventive care and the cost of these services do not come out of your HRA credits

Changes for Medicare Eligible Retirees The Medicare Advantage Private Fee (MA PFFS) for Service Plans will be replaced by the Medicare Advantage Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) Plans This change is due to the requirement by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) that all national and private MA PFFS plans offer a PPO network Medicare-eligible retirees may still elect any other option (HMO, HRA, or HDHP) but will pay the full cost

CIGNA-Humana Alliance CIGNA’s Medicare Advantage Private Fee-for-Service Plan will be replaced by the Humana Group Medicare Advantage PPO due to a newly formed alliance between CIGNA and Humana and the information receive will show the Humana name Since retirees may also receive information from other MA Plans, including Humana, retirees should only be concerned with mail that says for SHBP Retirees on the envelope

Medicare Advantage PPO Plans The Four Medicare Advantage PPO options offered in 2011 are: –Humana Group Medicare Advantage PPO Standard –Humana Group Medicare Advantage PPO Premium –United Healthcare Medicare Advantage PPO Standard –United Healthcare Medicare Advantage PPO Premium

Medicare Advantage PPO Plans The MA PPO Standard and Premium plans include prescription drug coverage as with the current MA PFFS plans Retirees will be able to choose from a large national provider network Benefits and co-payments and/or coinsurance will be the same whether the provider is in-network or out-of-network

Medicare Advantage PPO Plans Retirees can seek care from any provider that accepts Medicare (regardless if they have a signed contract with the health care vendor) If the retiree sees a provider who does not accept Medicare assignment, the retiree will be balance billed

Important Reminders-Retirees If eligible and the retiree selects any option other than one of the MA PPO Options, they will pay the entire cost of the premium If the retiree is enrolled in a SHBP MA PPO option they should NOT enroll in an individual Medicare Part D or Medicare Advantage Plan as doing so will cause the retiree to lose their SHBP coverage

Important Reminders-Retirees Retirees enrolled in one of the CIGNA or United Healthcare (UHC) Medicare Advantage (MA PFFS) Plans will receive a cancellation notice from their health care vendor advising them that their current MA PFFS option will end December 31, 2010 Retirees should not be alarmed-This notice is a requirement of CMS. Their new coverage under the MA PPO Option will take effect January 1, 2011

Important Reminders-Retirees Medicare Advantage enrollment is optional for retirees under age 65. Enrollment in the MA PPO plan must be approved by CMS Pre 65 retirees may enroll in the HRA, HDHP or HMO and will pay the same rate as active employees If the retiree is under age 65 they must answer the surcharge questions
