Important Questions<br />

Answers<br />

Why this Matters:<br />

What is the overall<br />

deductible?<br />

In-Network and Out-of-<br />

Network: $300 person/$700<br />

family. Prescription drugs,<br />

durable medical equipment, TMJ,<br />

balance billing, excluded services<br />

do not count toward the<br />

deductible.<br />

You must pay all the costs up to the deductible amount before this plan begins to pay for<br />

covered services you use. Check your policy or plan document to see when the deductible<br />

starts over (usually, but not always, January 1st). See the chart starting on page 2 for how<br />

much you pay for covered services after you meet the deductible.<br />

Are there other<br />

deductibles for specific<br />

services?<br />

Is there an out-ofpocket<br />

limit on my<br />

expenses?<br />

No.<br />

Yes. In-Network and Out-of-<br />

Network Medical: $2,500<br />

person/$6,000 family; In-<br />

Network Prescription Drugs:<br />

$2,000 person/$4,000 family;<br />

Out-of-Network Prescription<br />

Drugs: $4,000 person/$8,000<br />

family.<br />

You don’t have to meet deductibles for specific services, but see the chart starting on page 2<br />

for other costs for services this plan covers.<br />

The out-of-pocket limit is the most you could pay during a coverage period (usually one<br />

year) for your share of the cost of covered services. This limit helps you plan for health care<br />

expenses.<br />

What is not included in<br />

the out-of-pocket<br />

limit?<br />

Self-payments, balance billing,<br />

health care this plan does not<br />

cover, Family Supplemental<br />

Benefit charges.<br />

Even though you pay these expenses, they don’t count toward the out-of-pocket limit.<br />

Is there an overall<br />

annual limit on what the<br />

plan pays?<br />

No.<br />

The chart starting on page 2 describes any limits on what the plan will pay for specific covered<br />

services, such as office visits.<br />

Important Questions Answers Why this Matters:<br />

Does this plan use a<br />

network of providers?<br />

Do I need a referral to see<br />

a specialist?<br />

Are there services this<br />

plan doesn’t cover?<br />

Yes. For a list of in-network<br />

providers, call 1-800-810-2583.<br />

Yes. You need a referral to see<br />

an acupuncture specialist.<br />

Yes.<br />

If you use an in-network doctor or other health care provider, this plan will pay some or all<br />

of the costs of covered services. Be aware, your in-network doctor or hospital may use an<br />

out-of-network provider for some services. Plans use the term in-network, preferred, or<br />

participating for providers in their network. See the chart starting on page 2 for how this<br />

plan pays different kinds of providers.<br />

This plan will pay some or all of the costs to see a specialist for covered services but only if<br />

you have the plan’s permission before you see the specialist.<br />

Some of the services this plan doesn’t cover are listed on page 6. See your policy or plan<br />

document for additional information about excluded services.<br />

●<br />

●<br />

●<br />

●<br />

Co-payments are fixed dollar amounts (for example, $15) you pay for covered health care, usually when you receive the service.<br />

Co-insurance is your share of the costs of a covered service, calculated as a percent of the allowed amount for the service. For example, if<br />

the plan’s allowed amount for an overnight hospital stay is $1,000, your co-insurance payment of 20% would be $200. This may change if<br />

you haven’t met your deductible.<br />

The amount the plan pays for covered services is based on the allowed amount. If an out-of-network provider charges more than the<br />

allowed amount, you may have to pay the difference. For example, if an out-of-network hospital charges $1,500 for an overnight stay and<br />

the allowed amount is $1,000, you may have to pay the $500 difference. (This is called balance billing.)<br />

This plan may encourage you to use in-network providers by charging you lower deductibles, co-payments and co-insurance amounts.<br />

Your Rights to Continue Coverage:<br />

If you lose coverage under the plan, then, depending upon the circumstances, Federal and State laws may provide protections that allow you to keep health<br />

coverage. Any such rights may be limited in duration and will require you to pay a premium, which may be significantly higher than the premium you pay<br />

while covered under the plan. Other limitations on your rights to continue coverage may also apply.<br />

For more information on your rights to continue coverage, contact the plan at 1-708-482-7300. You may also contact your state insurance department, the<br />

U.S. Department of Labor, Employee Benefits Security Administration at 1-866-444-3272 or www.dol.gov/ebsa, or the U.S. Department of Health and<br />

Does this Coverage Provide Minimum Essential Coverage?<br />

The Affordable Care Act requires most people to have health care coverage that qualifies as “minimum essential coverage.” This plan or policy does<br />

provide minimum essential coverage.<br />

Does this Coverage Meet the Minimum Value Standard?<br />

The Affordable Care Act establishes a minimum value standard of benefits of a health plan. The minimum value standard is 60% (actuarial value). This<br />

health coverage does meet the minimum value standard for the benefits it provides.<br />

About these Coverage<br />

Examples:<br />

These examples show how this plan might cover<br />

medical care in given situations. Use these<br />

examples to see, in general, how much financial<br />

protection a sample patient might get if they are<br />

covered under different plans.<br />

This is<br />

not a cost<br />

estimator.<br />

Don’t use these examples to<br />

estimate your actual costs<br />

under this plan. The actual<br />

care you receive will be<br />

different from these examples,<br />

and the cost of that care will<br />

also be different.<br />

Questions and answers about the Coverage Examples:<br />

What are some of the<br />

assumptions behind the<br />

Coverage Examples?<br />

●<br />

●<br />

●<br />

●<br />

●<br />

●<br />

●<br />

Costs don’t include premiums.<br />

Sample care costs are based on national<br />

averages supplied by the U.S.<br />

Department of Health and Human<br />

Services, and aren’t specific to a<br />

particular geographic area or health<br />

plan.<br />

The patient’s condition was not an<br />

excluded or preexisting condition.<br />

All services and treatments started and<br />

ended in the same coverage period.<br />

There are no other medical expenses for<br />

any member covered under this plan.<br />

Out-of-pocket expenses are based only<br />

on treating the condition in the example.<br />

The patient received all care from innetwork<br />

providers. If the patient had<br />

received care from out-of-network<br />

providers, costs would have been<br />

higher.<br />

What does a Coverage Example<br />

show?<br />

For each treatment situation, the Coverage<br />

Example helps you see how deductibles, copayments,<br />

and co-insurance can add up. It<br />

also helps you see what expenses might be left<br />

up to you to pay because the service or<br />

treatment isn’t covered or payment is limited.<br />

Does the Coverage Example<br />

predict my own care needs?<br />

No. Treatments shown are just examples.<br />

The care you would receive for this<br />

condition could be different based on your<br />

doctor’s advice, your age, how serious your<br />

condition is, and many other factors.<br />

Does the Coverage Example<br />

predict my future expenses?<br />

No. Coverage Examples are not cost<br />

estimators. You can’t use the examples to<br />

estimate costs for an actual condition. They<br />

are for comparative purposes only. Your<br />

own costs will be different depending on<br />

the care you receive, the prices your<br />

providers charge, and the reimbursement<br />

your health plan allows.<br />

Can I use Coverage Examples to<br />

compare plans?<br />

Yes. When you look at the Summary of<br />

Benefits and Coverage for other plans,<br />

you’ll find the same Coverage Examples.<br />

When you compare plans, check the<br />

“Patient Pays” box in each example. The<br />

smaller that number, the more coverage<br />

the plan provides.<br />

Are there other costs I should<br />

consider when comparing<br />

plans?<br />

<br />

Yes. An important cost is the premium<br />

you pay. Generally, the lower your<br />

premium, the more you’ll pay in out-ofpocket<br />

costs, such as co-payments,<br />

deductibles, and co-insurance. You<br />

should also consider contributions to<br />

accounts such as health savings accounts<br />

(HSAs), flexible spending arrangements<br />

(FSAs) or health reimbursement accounts<br />

(HRAs) that help you pay out-of-pocket<br />

expenses.<br />

What is the overall<br />

deductible?<br />

In-Network: $500 person/$1,250<br />

family; Out-of-Network: $1,000<br />

person/$2,500 family. Prescription<br />

drugs, durable medical equipment,<br />

TMJ, balance billing, excluded services<br />

do not count toward the deductible.<br />

You must pay all the costs up to the deductible amount before this plan begins to pay<br />

for covered services you use. Check your policy or plan document to see when the<br />

deductible starts over (usually, but not always, January 1st). See the chart starting on<br />

page 2 for how much you pay for covered services after you meet the deductible.<br />

Are there other<br />

deductibles for specific<br />

services?<br />

Is there an out-ofpocket<br />

limit on my<br />

expenses?<br />

What is not included in<br />

the out-of-pocket<br />

limit?<br />

No.<br />

Yes. In-Network Medical: $3,500<br />

care this plan does not cover, Family<br />

Supplemental Benefit charges.<br />

You don’t have to meet deductibles for specific services, but see the chart starting on<br />

page 2 for other costs for services this plan covers.<br />

The out-of-pocket limit is the most you could pay during a coverage period (usually<br />

one year) for your share of the cost of covered services. This limit helps you plan for<br />

health care expenses.<br />

Even though you pay these expenses, they don’t count toward the out-of-pocket limit.<br />

Is there an overall<br />

annual limit on what the<br />

plan pays?<br />

No.<br />

The chart starting on page 2 describes any limits on what the plan will pay for specific<br />

covered services, such as office visits.<br />

Co-payments are fixed dollar amounts (for example, $15) you pay for covered health care, usually when you receive the service.<br />

Co-insurance is your share of the costs of a covered service, calculated as a percent of the allowed amount for the service. For example, if<br />

the plan’s allowed amount for an overnight hospital stay is $1,000, your co-insurance payment of 20% would be $200. This may change if<br />

you haven’t met your deductible.<br />

The amount the plan pays for covered services is based on the allowed amount. If an out-of-network provider charges more than the<br />

allowed amount, you may have to pay the difference. For example, if an out-of-network hospital charges $1,500 for an overnight stay and<br />

the allowed amount is $1,000, you may have to pay the $500 difference. (This is called balance billing.)<br />

This plan may encourage you to use in-network providers by charging you lower deductibles, co-payments and co-insurance amounts.<br />

Your Rights to Continue Coverage:<br />

If you lose coverage under the plan, then, depending upon the circumstances, Federal and State laws may provide protections that allow you to keep health<br />

coverage. Any such rights may be limited in duration and will require you to pay a premium, which may be significantly higher than the premium you pay<br />

while covered under the plan. Other limitations on your rights to continue coverage may also apply.<br />

For more information on your rights to continue coverage, contact the plan at 1-708-482-7300. You may also contact your state insurance department, the<br />

U.S. Department of Labor, Employee Benefits Security Administration at 1-866-444-3272 or www.dol.gov/ebsa, or the U.S. Department of Health and<br />

Does this Coverage Provide Minimum Essential Coverage?<br />

The Affordable Care Act requires most people to have health care coverage that qualifies as “minimum essential coverage.” This plan or policy does<br />

provide minimum essential coverage.<br />

Does this Coverage Meet the Minimum Value Standard?<br />

The Affordable Care Act establishes a minimum value standard of benefits of a health plan. The minimum value standard is 60% (actuarial value). This<br />

health coverage does meet the minimum value standard for the benefits it provides.<br />

Questions and answers about the Coverage Examples:<br />

What are some of the<br />

assumptions behind the<br />

Coverage Examples?<br />

●<br />

●<br />

●<br />

●<br />

●<br />

●<br />

●<br />

Costs don’t include premiums.<br />

Sample care costs are based on national<br />

averages supplied by the U.S.<br />

Department of Health and Human<br />

Services, and aren’t specific to a<br />

particular geographic area or health<br />

plan.<br />

The patient’s condition was not an<br />

excluded or preexisting condition.<br />

All services and treatments started and<br />

ended in the same coverage period.<br />

There are no other medical expenses for<br />

any member covered under this plan.<br />

Out-of-pocket expenses are based only<br />

on treating the condition in the example.<br />

The patient received all care from innetwork<br />

providers. If the patient had<br />

received care from out-of-network<br />

providers, costs would have been<br />

higher.<br />

What does a Coverage Example<br />

show?<br />

For each treatment situation, the Coverage<br />

Example helps you see how deductibles, copayments,<br />

and co-insurance can add up. It<br />

also helps you see what expenses might be left<br />

up to you to pay because the service or<br />

treatment isn’t covered or payment is limited.<br />

Does the Coverage Example<br />

predict my own care needs?<br />

No. Treatments shown are just examples.<br />

The care you would receive for this<br />

condition could be different based on your<br />

doctor’s advice, your age, how serious your<br />

condition is, and many other factors.<br />

Does the Coverage Example<br />

predict my future expenses?<br />

No. Coverage Examples are not cost<br />

estimators. You can’t use the examples to<br />

estimate costs for an actual condition. They<br />

are for comparative purposes only. Your<br />

own costs will be different depending on<br />

the care you receive, the prices your<br />

providers charge, and the reimbursement<br />

your health plan allows.<br />

Can I use Coverage Examples to<br />

compare plans?<br />

Yes. When you look at the Summary of<br />

Benefits and Coverage for other plans,<br />

you’ll find the same Coverage Examples.<br />

When you compare plans, check the<br />

“Patient Pays” box in each example. The<br />

smaller that number, the more coverage<br />

the plan provides.<br />

Are there other costs I should<br />

consider when comparing<br />

plans?<br />

<br />

Yes. An important cost is the premium<br />

you pay. Generally, the lower your<br />

premium, the more you’ll pay in out-ofpocket<br />

costs, such as co-payments,<br />

deductibles, and co-insurance. You<br />

should also consider contributions to<br />

accounts such as health savings accounts<br />

(HSAs), flexible spending arrangements<br />

(FSAs) or health reimbursement accounts<br />

(HRAs) that help you pay out-of-pocket<br />

expenses.<br />

Important Questions<br />

What is the overall<br />

deductible?<br />

Are there other<br />

deductibles for specific<br />

services?<br />

Answers<br />

No deductible.<br />

No.<br />

Why this Matters:<br />

See the chart starting on page 2 for your costs for services this plan covers.<br />

You don’t have to meet deductibles for specific services, but see the chart starting on page 2<br />

for other costs for services this plan covers.<br />

Is there an out-ofpocket<br />

limit on my<br />

expenses?<br />

Yes. In-Network Medical:<br />

$4,000 person/$10,000 family;<br />

In-Network Prescription Drugs:<br />

$2,000 person/$3,200 family<br />

The out-of-pocket limit is the most you could pay during a coverage period (usually one year)<br />

for your share of the cost of covered services. This limit helps you plan for health care<br />

expenses.<br />

What is not included in<br />

the out-of-pocket<br />

limit?<br />

Self-payments, balance billing,<br />

health care this plan does not<br />

cover, Family Supplemental<br />

Benefit charges.<br />

Even though you pay these expenses, they don’t count toward the out-of-pocket limit.<br />

Is there an overall<br />

annual limit on what the<br />

plan pays?<br />

Does this plan use a<br />

network of providers?<br />

No.<br />

Yes. For a list of in-network<br />

providers, call 1-800-810-2583.<br />

The chart starting on page 2 describes any limits on what the plan will pay for specific covered<br />

services, such as office visits.<br />

If you use an in-network doctor or other health care provider, this plan will pay some or all of<br />

the costs of covered services. Be aware, your in-network doctor or hospital may use an out-ofnetwork<br />

provider for some services. Plans use the term in-network, preferred, or<br />

participating for providers in their network. See the chart starting on page 2 for how this<br />

plan pays different kinds of providers.<br />

Important Questions Answers<br />

Do I need a referral to see<br />

a specialist?<br />

Are there services this<br />

Yes.<br />

plan doesn’t cover?<br />

Yes. You need a referral to see an<br />

acupuncture specialist.<br />

Why this Matters:<br />

This plan will pay some or all of the costs to see a specialist for covered services but only<br />

if you have the plan’s permission before you see the specialist.<br />

Some of the services this plan doesn’t cover are listed on page 6. See your policy or plan<br />

document for additional information about excluded services.<br />

●<br />

●<br />

●<br />

●<br />

Co-payments are fixed dollar amounts (for example, $15) you pay for covered health care, usually when you receive the service.<br />

Co-insurance is your share of the costs of a covered service, calculated as a percent of the allowed amount for the service. For example, if<br />

the plan’s allowed amount for an overnight hospital stay is $1,000, your co-insurance payment of 20% would be $200. This may change if<br />

you haven’t met your deductible.<br />

The amount the plan pays for covered services is based on the allowed amount. If an out-of-network provider charges more than the<br />

allowed amount, you may have to pay the difference. For example, if an out-of-network hospital charges $1,500 for an overnight stay and<br />

the allowed amount is $1,000, you may have to pay the $500 difference. (This is called balance billing.)<br />

This plan may encourage you to use in-network providers by charging you lower deductibles, co-payments and co-insurance amounts.<br />

Your Rights to Continue Coverage:<br />

If you lose coverage under the plan, then, depending upon the circumstances, Federal and State laws may provide protections that allow you to keep health<br />

coverage. Any such rights may be limited in duration and will require you to pay a premium, which may be significantly higher than the premium you pay<br />

while covered under the plan. Other limitations on your rights to continue coverage may also apply.<br />

For more information on your rights to continue coverage, contact the plan at 1-708-482-7300. You may also contact your state insurance department, the<br />

U.S. Department of Labor, Employee Benefits Security Administration at 1-866-444-3272 or www.dol.gov/ebsa, or the U.S. Department of Health and<br />

The Affordable Care Act requires most people to have health care coverage that qualifies as “minimum essential coverage.” This plan or policy does<br />

provide minimum essential coverage.<br />

Does this Coverage Meet the Minimum Value Standard?<br />

About these Coverage<br />

Examples:<br />

These examples show how this plan might cover<br />

medical care in given situations. Use these<br />

examples to see, in general, how much financial<br />

protection a sample patient might get if they are<br />

covered under different plans.<br />

This is<br />

not a cost<br />

estimator.<br />

Don’t use these examples to<br />

estimate your actual costs<br />

under this plan. The actual<br />

care you receive will be<br />

different from these examples,<br />

and the cost of that care will<br />

also be different.<br />

Questions and answers about the Coverage Examples:<br />

What are some of the<br />

assumptions behind the<br />

Coverage Examples?<br />

●<br />

●<br />

●<br />

●<br />

●<br />

●<br />

●<br />

Costs don’t include premiums.<br />

Sample care costs are based on national<br />

averages supplied by the U.S.<br />

Department of Health and Human<br />

Services, and aren’t specific to a<br />

particular geographic area or health<br />

plan.<br />

The patient’s condition was not an<br />

excluded or preexisting condition.<br />

All services and treatments started and<br />

ended in the same coverage period.<br />

There are no other medical expenses for<br />

any member covered under this plan.<br />

Out-of-pocket expenses are based only<br />

on treating the condition in the example.<br />

The patient received all care from innetwork<br />

providers. If the patient had<br />

received care from out-of-network<br />

providers, costs would have been<br />

higher.<br />

What does a Coverage Example<br />

show?<br />

For each treatment situation, the Coverage<br />

Example helps you see how deductibles, copayments,<br />

and co-insurance can add up. It<br />

also helps you see what expenses might be left<br />

up to you to pay because the service or<br />

treatment isn’t covered or payment is limited.<br />

Does the Coverage Example<br />

predict my own care needs?<br />

No. Treatments shown are just examples.<br />

The care you would receive for this<br />

condition could be different based on your<br />

doctor’s advice, your age, how serious your<br />

condition is, and many other factors.<br />

Does the Coverage Example<br />

predict my future expenses?<br />

No. Coverage Examples are not cost<br />

estimators. You can’t use the examples to<br />

estimate costs for an actual condition. They<br />

are for comparative purposes only. Your<br />

own costs will be different depending on<br />

the care you receive, the prices your<br />

providers charge, and the reimbursement<br />

your health plan allows.<br />

Can I use Coverage Examples to<br />

compare plans?<br />

Yes. When you look at the Summary of<br />

Benefits and Coverage for other plans,<br />

you’ll find the same Coverage Examples.<br />

When you compare plans, check the<br />

“Patient Pays” box in each example. The<br />

smaller that number, the more coverage<br />

the plan provides.<br />

Are there other costs I should<br />

consider when comparing<br />

plans?<br />

<br />

Yes. An important cost is the premium<br />

you pay. Generally, the lower your<br />

premium, the more you’ll pay in out-ofpocket<br />

costs, such as co-payments,<br />

deductibles, and co-insurance. You<br />

should also consider contributions to<br />

accounts such as health savings accounts<br />

(HSAs), flexible spending arrangements<br />

(FSAs) or health reimbursement accounts<br />

(HRAs) that help you pay out-of-pocket<br />

expenses.<br />

Important Questions<br />

What is the overall<br />

deductible?<br />

Are there other<br />

deductibles for specific<br />

services?<br />

Answers<br />

In-Network: $1,000 person/$2,500<br />

family; Out-of-Network: $2,000<br />

person/$5,000 family. Prescription<br />

drugs, durable medical equipment, TMJ,<br />

balance billing, excluded services do not<br />

count toward the deductible.<br />

No.<br />

Why this Matters:<br />

You must pay all the costs up to the deductible amount before this plan begins to pay<br />

for covered services you use. Check your policy or plan document to see when the<br />

deductible starts over (usually, but not always, January 1st). See the chart starting on<br />

page 2 for how much you pay for covered services after you meet the deductible.<br />

You don’t have to meet deductibles for specific services, but see the chart starting on<br />

page 2 for other costs for services this plan covers.<br />

Is there an out-ofpocket<br />

limit on my<br />

expenses?<br />

Yes. In-Network Medical: $4,000<br />

person/$8,000 family; Out-of-Network<br />

Medical: $8,000 person/$16,000<br />

family. In-Network Prescription Drugs:<br />

$2,000 person/$4,000 family. Out-of-<br />

Network Prescription Drugs: $4,000<br />

person/$8,000 family.<br />

The out-of-pocket limit is the most you could pay during a coverage period (usually one<br />

year) for your share of the cost of covered services. This limit helps you plan for health<br />

care expenses.<br />

What is not included in<br />

the out-of-pocket<br />

limit?<br />

Self-payments, balance billing, health<br />

care this plan does not cover, Family<br />

Supplemental Benefit charges.<br />

Even though you pay these expenses, they don’t count toward the out-of-pocket limit.<br />

Is there an overall<br />

annual limit on what the<br />

plan pays?<br />

No.<br />

The chart starting on page 2 describes any limits on what the plan will pay for specific<br />

covered services, such as office visits.<br />

Important Questions Answers Why this Matters:<br />

Does this plan use a<br />

network of providers?<br />

Do I need a referral to see<br />

a specialist?<br />

Are there services this<br />

plan doesn’t cover?<br />

Yes. For a list of in-network<br />

providers, call 1-800-810-2583.<br />

Yes. You need a referral to see an<br />

acupuncture specialist.<br />

Yes.<br />

If you use an in-network doctor or other health care provider, this plan will pay some or all<br />

of the costs of covered services. Be aware, your in-network doctor or hospital may use an<br />

out-of-network provider for some services. Plans use the term in-network, preferred, or<br />

participating for providers in their network. See the chart starting on page 2 for how this<br />

plan pays different kinds of providers.<br />

This plan will pay some or all of the costs to see a specialist for covered services but only<br />

if you have the plan’s permission before you see the specialist.<br />

Some of the services this plan doesn’t cover are listed on page 6. See your policy or plan<br />

document for additional information about excluded services.<br />

●<br />

●<br />

●<br />

●<br />

Co-payments are fixed dollar amounts (for example, $15) you pay for covered health care, usually when you receive the service.<br />

Co-insurance is your share of the costs of a covered service, calculated as a percent of the allowed amount for the service. For example, if<br />

the plan’s allowed amount for an overnight hospital stay is $1,000, your co-insurance payment of 20% would be $200. This may change if<br />

you haven’t met your deductible.<br />

The amount the plan pays for covered services is based on the allowed amount. If an out-of-network provider charges more than the<br />

allowed amount, you may have to pay the difference. For example, if an out-of-network hospital charges $1,500 for an overnight stay and<br />

the allowed amount is $1,000, you may have to pay the $500 difference. (This is called balance billing.)<br />

This plan may encourage you to use in-network providers by charging you lower deductibles, co-payments and co-insurance amounts.<br />

About these Coverage<br />

Examples:<br />

These examples show how this plan might cover<br />

medical care in given situations. Use these<br />

examples to see, in general, how much financial<br />

protection a sample patient might get if they are<br />

covered under different plans.<br />

This is<br />

not a cost<br />

estimator.<br />

Don’t use these examples to<br />

estimate your actual costs<br />

under this plan. The actual<br />

care you receive will be<br />

different from these examples,<br />

and the cost of that care will<br />

also be different.<br />

Questions and answers about the Coverage Examples:<br />

What are some of the<br />

assumptions behind the<br />

Coverage Examples?<br />

●<br />

●<br />

●<br />

●<br />

●<br />

●<br />

●<br />

Costs don’t include premiums.<br />

Sample care costs are based on national<br />

averages supplied by the U.S.<br />

Department of Health and Human<br />

Services, and aren’t specific to a<br />

particular geographic area or health<br />

plan.<br />

The patient’s condition was not an<br />

excluded or preexisting condition.<br />

All services and treatments started and<br />

ended in the same coverage period.<br />

There are no other medical expenses for<br />

any member covered under this plan.<br />

Out-of-pocket expenses are based only<br />

on treating the condition in the example.<br />

The patient received all care from innetwork<br />

providers. If the patient had<br />

received care from out-of-network<br />

providers, costs would have been<br />

higher.<br />

What does a Coverage Example<br />

show?<br />

For each treatment situation, the Coverage<br />

Example helps you see how deductibles, copayments,<br />

and co-insurance can add up. It<br />

also helps you see what expenses might be left<br />

up to you to pay because the service or<br />

treatment isn’t covered or payment is limited.<br />

Does the Coverage Example<br />

predict my own care needs?<br />

No. Treatments shown are just examples.<br />

The care you would receive for this<br />

condition could be different based on your<br />

doctor’s advice, your age, how serious your<br />

condition is, and many other factors.<br />

Does the Coverage Example<br />

predict my future expenses?<br />

No. Coverage Examples are not cost<br />

estimators. You can’t use the examples to<br />

estimate costs for an actual condition. They<br />

are for comparative purposes only. Your<br />

own costs will be different depending on<br />

the care you receive, the prices your<br />

providers charge, and the reimbursement<br />

your health plan allows.<br />

Can I use Coverage Examples to<br />

compare plans?<br />

Yes. When you look at the Summary of<br />

Benefits and Coverage for other plans,<br />

you’ll find the same Coverage Examples.<br />

When you compare plans, check the<br />

“Patient Pays” box in each example. The<br />

smaller that number, the more coverage<br />

the plan provides.<br />

Are there other costs I should<br />

consider when comparing<br />

plans?<br />

<br />

Yes. An important cost is the premium<br />

you pay. Generally, the lower your<br />

premium, the more you’ll pay in out-ofpocket<br />

costs, such as co-payments,<br />

deductibles, and co-insurance. You<br />

should also consider contributions to<br />

accounts such as health savings accounts<br />

(HSAs), flexible spending arrangements<br />

(FSAs) or health reimbursement accounts<br />

(HRAs) that help you pay out-of-pocket<br />

expenses.<br />

Important Questions<br />

What is the overall<br />

deductible?<br />

Are there other<br />

deductibles for specific<br />

services?<br />

Answers<br />

In-Network: $2,000 person/$5,000<br />

family; Out-of-Network: $4,000<br />

person/$10,000 family. Prescription<br />

drugs, durable medical equipment, TMJ,<br />

balance billing, excluded services do not<br />

count toward the deductible.<br />

No.<br />

Why this Matters:<br />

You must pay all the costs up to the deductible amount before this plan begins to pay<br />

for covered services you use. Check your policy or plan document to see when the<br />

deductible starts over (usually, but not always, January 1st). See the chart starting on<br />

page 2 for how much you pay for covered services after you meet the deductible.<br />

You don’t have to meet deductibles for specific services, but see the chart starting on<br />

page 2 for other costs for services this plan covers.<br />

Is there an out-ofpocket<br />

limit on my<br />

expenses?<br />

Yes. In-Network Medical: $4,000<br />

person/$8,000 family; Out-of-Network<br />

Medical: $8,000 person/$16,000 family. The out-of-pocket limit is the most you could pay during a coverage period (usually<br />

In-Network Prescription Drugs: $2,000 one year) for your share of the cost of covered services. This limit helps you plan for<br />

person/$4,000 family; Out-of-Network health care expenses.<br />

Prescription Drugs: $4,000<br />

person/$8,000 family.<br />

What is not included in<br />

the out-of-pocket<br />

limit?<br />

Self-payments, balance billing, health care<br />

this plan does not cover, Family<br />

Supplemental Benefit charges.<br />

Even though you pay these expenses, they don’t count toward the out-of-pocket limit.<br />

Is there an overall<br />

annual limit on what the<br />

plan pays?<br />

No.<br />

The chart starting on page 2 describes any limits on what the plan will pay for specific<br />

covered services, such as office visits.<br />

Important Questions Answers Why this Matters:<br />

Does this plan use a<br />

network of providers?<br />

Do I need a referral to see<br />

a specialist?<br />

Are there services this<br />

plan doesn’t cover?<br />

Yes. For a list of in-network<br />

providers, call 1-800-810-2583.<br />

Yes. You need a referral to see an<br />

acupuncture specialist.<br />

Yes.<br />

If you use an in-network doctor or other health care provider, this plan will pay some or all<br />

of the costs of covered services. Be aware, your in-network doctor or hospital may use an<br />

out-of-network provider for some services. Plans use the term in-network, preferred, or<br />

participating for providers in their network. See the chart starting on page 2 for how this<br />

plan pays different kinds of providers.<br />

This plan will pay some or all of the costs to see a specialist for covered services but only<br />

if you have the plan’s permission before you see the specialist.<br />

Some of the services this plan doesn’t cover are listed on page 6. See your policy or plan<br />

document for additional information about excluded services.<br />

●<br />

●<br />

●<br />

●<br />

Co-payments are fixed dollar amounts (for example, $15) you pay for covered health care, usually when you receive the service.<br />

Co-insurance is your share of the costs of a covered service, calculated as a percent of the allowed amount for the service. For example, if<br />

the plan’s allowed amount for an overnight hospital stay is $1,000, your co-insurance payment of 20% would be $200. This may change if<br />

you haven’t met your deductible.<br />

The amount the plan pays for covered services is based on the allowed amount. If an out-of-network provider charges more than the<br />

allowed amount, you may have to pay the difference. For example, if an out-of-network hospital charges $1,500 for an overnight stay and<br />

the allowed amount is $1,000, you may have to pay the $500 difference. (This is called balance billing.)<br />

This plan may encourage you to use in-network providers by charging you lower deductibles, co-payments and co-insurance amounts.<br />

while covered under the plan. Other limitations on your rights to continue coverage may also apply.<br />

For more information on your rights to continue coverage, contact the plan at 1-708-482-7300. You may also contact your state insurance department, the<br />

U.S. Department of Labor, Employee Benefits Security Administration at 1-866-444-3272 or www.dol.gov/ebsa, or the U.S. Department of Health and<br />

provide minimum essential coverage.<br />

Does this Coverage Meet the Minimum Value Standard?<br />

The Affordable Care Act establishes a minimum value standard of benefits of a health plan. The minimum value standard is 60% (actuarial value). This<br />

Coverage Examples?<br />

● Costs don’t include premiums.<br />

Yes. An important cost is the premium<br />

you pay. Generally, the lower your<br />

premium, the more you’ll pay in out-ofpocket<br />

costs, such as co-payments,<br />

deductibles, and co-insurance. You<br />

should also consider contributions to<br />

accounts such as health savings accounts<br />

(HSAs), flexible spending arrangements<br />

(FSAs) or health reimbursement accounts<br />

(HRAs) that help you pay out-of-pocket<br />

expenses.<br />

Important Questions<br />

Answers<br />

Why this Matters:<br />

What is the overall<br />

deductible?<br />

In-Network: $2,000 person/$5,000<br />

family; Out-of-Network: $4,000<br />

person/$10,000 family. Prescription<br />

drugs, durable medical equipment, TMJ,<br />

balance billing, excluded services do not<br />

count toward the deductible.<br />

You must pay all the costs up to the deductible amount before this plan begins to<br />

pay for covered services you use. Check your policy or plan document to see when<br />

the deductible starts over (usually, but not always, January 1st). See the chart starting<br />

on page 2 for how much you pay for covered services after you meet the deductible.<br />

Are there other<br />

deductibles for specific<br />

services?<br />

Is there an out-ofpocket<br />

limit on my<br />

expenses?<br />

What is not included in<br />

the out-of-pocket<br />

limit?<br />

No.<br />

Yes. In-Network Medical: $4,000<br />

person/$8,000 family; Out-of-<br />

Network Medical: $8,000<br />

person/$16,000 family. In-Network<br />

Prescription Drugs: $2,000<br />

person/$4,000 family; Out-of-<br />

Network Prescription Drugs: $4,000<br />

person/$8,000 family.<br />

Self-payments, balance billing, health<br />

care this plan does not cover, Family<br />

Supplemental Benefit charges.<br />

You don’t have to meet deductibles for specific services, but see the chart starting<br />

on page 2 for other costs for services this plan covers.<br />

The out-of-pocket limit is the most you could pay during a coverage period (usually<br />

one year) for your share of the cost of covered services. This limit helps you plan for<br />

health care expenses.<br />

Even though you pay these expenses, they don’t count toward the out-of-pocket<br />

limit.<br />

Is there an overall<br />

annual limit on what the<br />

plan pays?<br />

No.<br />

The chart starting on page 2 describes any limits on what the plan will pay for specific<br />

covered services, such as office visits.<br />

Important Questions Answers Why this Matters:<br />

Does this plan use a<br />

network of providers?<br />

Do I need a referral to see<br />

a specialist?<br />

Are there services this<br />

plan doesn’t cover?<br />

Yes. For a list of in-network<br />

providers, call 1-800-810-2583.<br />

Yes. You need a referral to see an<br />

acupuncture specialist.<br />

Yes.<br />

If you use an in-network doctor or other health care provider, this plan will pay some or all<br />

of the costs of covered services. Be aware, your in-network doctor or hospital may use an<br />

out-of-network provider for some services. Plans use the term in-network, preferred, or<br />

participating for providers in their network. See the chart starting on page 2 for how this<br />

plan pays different kinds of providers.<br />

This plan will pay some or all of the costs to see a specialist for covered services but only<br />

if you have the plan’s permission before you see the specialist.<br />

Some of the services this plan doesn’t cover are listed on page 6. See your policy or plan<br />

document for additional information about excluded services.<br />

●<br />

●<br />

●<br />

●<br />

Co-payments are fixed dollar amounts (for example, $15) you pay for covered health care, usually when you receive the service.<br />

Co-insurance is your share of the costs of a covered service, calculated as a percent of the allowed amount for the service. For example, if<br />

the plan’s allowed amount for an overnight hospital stay is $1,000, your co-insurance payment of 20% would be $200. This may change if<br />

you haven’t met your deductible.<br />

The amount the plan pays for covered services is based on the allowed amount. If an out-of-network provider charges more than the<br />

allowed amount, you may have to pay the difference. For example, if an out-of-network hospital charges $1,500 for an overnight stay and<br />

the allowed amount is $1,000, you may have to pay the $500 difference. (This is called balance billing.)<br />

This plan may encourage you to use in-network providers by charging you lower deductibles, co-payments and co-insurance amounts.<br />

Your Rights to Continue Coverage:<br />

If you lose coverage under the plan, then, depending upon the circumstances, Federal and State laws may provide protections that allow you to keep health<br />

coverage. Any such rights may be limited in duration and will require you to pay a premium, which may be significantly higher than the premium you pay<br />

while covered under the plan. Other limitations on your rights to continue coverage may also apply.<br />

For more information on your rights to continue coverage, contact the plan at 1-708-482-7300. You may also contact your state insurance department, the<br />

U.S. Department of Labor, Employee Benefits Security Administration at 1-866-444-3272 or www.dol.gov/ebsa, or the U.S. Department of Health and<br />

Does this Coverage Provide Minimum Essential Coverage?<br />

The Affordable Care Act requires most people to have health care coverage that qualifies as “minimum essential coverage.” This plan or policy does<br />

provide minimum essential coverage.<br />

Does this Coverage Meet the Minimum Value Standard?<br />

The Affordable Care Act establishes a minimum value standard of benefits of a health plan. The minimum value standard is 60% (actuarial value). This<br />

health coverage does meet the minimum value standard for the benefits it provides.<br />

Questions and answers about the Coverage Examples:<br />

What are some of the<br />

assumptions behind the<br />

Coverage Examples?<br />

●<br />

●<br />

●<br />

●<br />

●<br />

●<br />

●<br />

Costs don’t include premiums.<br />

Sample care costs are based on national<br />

averages supplied by the U.S.<br />

Department of Health and Human<br />

Services, and aren’t specific to a<br />

particular geographic area or health<br />

plan.<br />

The patient’s condition was not an<br />

excluded or preexisting condition.<br />

All services and treatments started and<br />

ended in the same coverage period.<br />

There are no other medical expenses for<br />

any member covered under this plan.<br />

Out-of-pocket expenses are based only<br />

on treating the condition in the example.<br />

The patient received all care from innetwork<br />

providers. If the patient had<br />

received care from out-of-network<br />

providers, costs would have been<br />

higher.<br />

What does a Coverage Example<br />

show?<br />

For each treatment situation, the Coverage<br />

Example helps you see how deductibles, copayments,<br />

and co-insurance can add up. It<br />

also helps you see what expenses might be left<br />

up to you to pay because the service or<br />

treatment isn’t covered or payment is limited.<br />

Does the Coverage Example<br />

predict my own care needs?<br />

No. Treatments shown are just examples.<br />

The care you would receive for this<br />

condition could be different based on your<br />

doctor’s advice, your age, how serious your<br />

condition is, and many other factors.<br />

Does the Coverage Example<br />

predict my future expenses?<br />

No. Coverage Examples are not cost<br />

estimators. You can’t use the examples to<br />

estimate costs for an actual condition. They<br />

are for comparative purposes only. Your<br />

own costs will be different depending on<br />

the care you receive, the prices your<br />

providers charge, and the reimbursement<br />

your health plan allows.<br />

Can I use Coverage Examples to<br />

compare plans?<br />

Yes. When you look at the Summary of<br />

Benefits and Coverage for other plans,<br />

you’ll find the same Coverage Examples.<br />

When you compare plans, check the<br />

“Patient Pays” box in each example. The<br />

smaller that number, the more coverage<br />

the plan provides.<br />

Are there other costs I should<br />

consider when comparing<br />

plans?<br />

<br />

Yes. An important cost is the premium<br />

you pay. Generally, the lower your<br />

premium, the more you’ll pay in out-ofpocket<br />

costs, such as co-payments,<br />

deductibles, and co-insurance. You<br />

should also consider contributions to<br />

accounts such as health savings accounts<br />

(HSAs), flexible spending arrangements<br />

(FSAs) or health reimbursement accounts<br />

(HRAs) that help you pay out-of-pocket<br />

expenses.<br />

Some of the services this plan doesn’t cover are listed on page 6. See your policy or plan<br />

document for additional information about excluded services.<br />

Co-payments are fixed dollar amounts (for example, $15) you pay for covered health care, usually when you receive the service.<br />

Co-insurance is your share of the costs of a covered service, calculated as a percent of the allowed amount for the service. For example, if<br />

the plan’s allowed amount for an overnight hospital stay is $1,000, your co-insurance payment of 20% would be $200. This may change if<br />

you haven’t met your deductible.<br />

The amount the plan pays for covered services is based on the allowed amount. If an out-of-network provider charges more than the<br />

allowed amount, you may have to pay the difference. For example, if an out-of-network hospital charges $1,500 for an overnight stay and<br />

the allowed amount is $1,000, you may have to pay the $500 difference. (This is called balance billing.)<br />

This plan may encourage you to use in-network providers by charging you lower deductibles, co-payments and co-insurance amounts.<br />

Your Rights to Continue Coverage:<br />

If you lose coverage under the plan, then, depending upon the circumstances, Federal and State laws may provide protections that allow you to keep health<br />

coverage. Any such rights may be limited in duration and will require you to pay a premium, which may be significantly higher than the premium you pay<br />

while covered under the plan. Other limitations on your rights to continue coverage may also apply.<br />

For more information on your rights to continue coverage, contact the plan at 1-708-482-7300. You may also contact your state insurance department, the<br />

U.S. Department of Labor, Employee Benefits Security Administration at 1-866-444-3272 or www.dol.gov/ebsa, or the U.S. Department of Health and<br />

Human Services at 1-877-267-2323 x61565 or www.cciio.cms.gov.<br />

Your Grievance and Appeals Rights:<br />

Does this Coverage Provide Minimum Essential Coverage?<br />

The Affordable Care Act requires most people to have health care coverage that qualifies as “minimum essential coverage.” This plan or policy does<br />

provide minimum essential coverage.<br />

Does this Coverage Meet the Minimum Value Standard?<br />

The Affordable Care Act establishes a minimum value standard of benefits of a health plan. The minimum value standard is 60% (actuarial value). This<br />

health coverage does meet the minimum value standard for the benefits it provides.<br />

About these Coverage<br />

Examples:<br />

These examples show how this plan might cover<br />

medical care in given situations. Use these<br />

examples to see, in general, how much financial<br />

protection a sample patient might get if they are<br />

covered under different plans.<br />

This is<br />

not a cost<br />

estimator.<br />

Don’t use these examples to<br />

estimate your actual costs<br />

under this plan. The actual<br />

care you receive will be<br />

different from these examples,<br />

and the cost of that care will<br />

also be different.<br />

Questions and answers about the Coverage Examples:<br />

What are some of the<br />

assumptions behind the<br />

Coverage Examples?<br />

● Costs don’t include premiums.<br />

● Sample care costs are based on national<br />

averages supplied by the U.S.<br />

Department of Health and Human<br />

Services, and aren’t specific to a<br />

particular geographic area or health<br />

plan.<br />

● The patient’s condition was not an<br />

excluded or preexisting condition.<br />

● All services and treatments started and<br />

ended in the same coverage period.<br />

● There are no other medical expenses for<br />

any member covered under this plan.<br />

● Out-of-pocket expenses are based only<br />

on treating the condition in the example.<br />

●<br />

The patient received all care from innetwork<br />

providers. If the patient had<br />

received care from out-of-network<br />

providers, costs would have been<br />

higher.<br />

What does a Coverage Example<br />

show?<br />

For each treatment situation, the Coverage<br />

Example helps you see how deductibles, copayments,<br />

and co-insurance can add up. It<br />

also helps you see what expenses might be left<br />

up to you to pay because the service or<br />

treatment isn’t covered or payment is limited.<br />

Does the Coverage Example<br />

predict my own care needs?<br />

No. Treatments shown are just examples.<br />

The care you would receive for this<br />

condition could be different based on your<br />

doctor’s advice, your age, how serious your<br />

condition is, and many other factors.<br />

Does the Coverage Example<br />

predict my future expenses?<br />

No. Coverage Examples are not cost<br />

estimators. You can’t use the examples to<br />

estimate costs for an actual condition. They<br />

are for comparative purposes only. Your<br />

own costs will be different depending on<br />

the care you receive, the prices your<br />

providers charge, and the reimbursement<br />

your health plan allows.<br />

Can I use Coverage Examples to<br />

compare plans?<br />

Yes. When you look at the Summary of<br />

Benefits and Coverage for other plans,<br />

you’ll find the same Coverage Examples.<br />

When you compare plans, check the<br />

“Patient Pays” box in each example. The<br />

smaller that number, the more coverage<br />

the plan provides.<br />

Are there other costs I should<br />

consider when comparing<br />

plans?<br />

<br />

Yes. An important cost is the premium<br />

you pay. Generally, the lower your<br />

premium, the more you’ll pay in out-ofpocket<br />

costs, such as co-payments,<br />

deductibles, and co-insurance. You<br />

should also consider contributions to<br />

accounts such as health savings accounts<br />

(HSAs), flexible spending arrangements<br />

(FSAs) or health reimbursement accounts<br />

(HRAs) that help you pay out-of-pocket<br />

expenses.<br />
