The Blue Shield Health Savings Plan Mark Esteban, Director Health & Welfare Planning and Financials

Blue Shield Health Savings Plan Health Savings Account (HealthEquity) Medical Coverage (Blue Shield PPO) + Combines high deductible PPO with account to pay out-of-pocket expenses

Medical PPO Plan Design Medical Plan Coverage *Network preventive care covered at 100% In NetworkOut of Network Deductible* Single Family $1,250 $2,500 $5,000 Out-of-Pocket Max (includes deductible) Single Family $4,000 $6,400 $8,000 $16,000 Member Cost Sharing (coinsurance after deductible is met) 20%40%

HSA Funding Contribution Types IndividualFamily UC Contribution$500$1,000 Employee Pre- Tax (optional) up to $2,800up to $5, IRS Maximums for HSA: $3,300 $6,550

How does the HSA work?  UC funds your HSA account with $500 for individual and $1,000 for family  You can contribute up to $2,800/individual $5,550 family  If you’re 55 or older, you can contribute more  Use HSA $ to pay for your  Deductible  Coinsurance (e.g., your 20%)  Any IRS Publication 502 Expenses

Things to consider…..  You can’t participate in the Blue Shield Health Savings Plan and UC’s Flexible Spending Account (Conexis) at the same time  You can’t be anyone’s tax dependent  Health Savings Account only allowed for High Deductible Health Plans

Your Health Savings Account:  You own the account  You can contribute to it  It has triple tax advantages  It comes with a HSA Debit Card Currently enrolled in Anthem Lumenos and have an HRA balance? You’ll keep it as long as you enroll in the Health Savings Plan. Why is it better than an HRA?

1.Go to your doctor. 2.Later – check your HealthEquity account online to see required payment to the doctor. 3.Pay with your HSA funds through your HealthEquity online account. Give doctor’s office your Blue Shield card so BSC can…  process the claim and get you their special provider discounts and  send info about your amount of claim responsibility to Health Equity Using Your Health Savings Plan

1.Go to your pharmacy. 2a. Pay for your Rx immediately if you want to use your HSA Debit Card, OR Using Your Health Savings Plan Give Pharmacist your Blue Shield Card so they can apply the Blue Shield Rx discounts. 2b. Pay with personal funds (e.g., AMEX to get your points) and later go to your HealthEquity account online and reimburse yourself.
