4 Pelican Plans OGB s Pelican benefit options offer low premiums, in combination with employer contributions, to create the most affordable options for enrollees in Pelican plans offer within the Blue Cross and Blue Shield nationwide network, as well as out-of-network.

5 Pelican HRA1000 The Pelican HRA1000 includes $1,000 in annual employer contributions for employee-only plans and $2,000 for family plans in a health reimbursement arrangement that can be used to offset deductibles and other out-of-pocket medical, not pharmacy, costs throughout the year. The HRA funds are available as long as you remain employed by an OGB-participating employer. Any unused funds roll up to the in-network, out-of-pocket maximum (see following chart), allowing members to build up balances that cover eligible medical expenses.

6 Pelican HRA1000 Pelican HRA1000 Employer Contribution to HRA Medical Coverage Employee- Only Employee + 1 (Spouse or Child) Employee + Children Family $1,000 $2,000 $2,000 $2,000 Deductible (in-network) $2,000 $4,000 $4,000 $4,000 Deductible (out-ofnetwork) Out-of-pocket max (innetwork) Out-of-pocket max (outof-network) $4,000 $8,000 $8,000 $8,000 $5,000 $10,000 $10,000 $10,000 $10,000 $20,000 $20,000 $20,000 Coinsurance (in-network) 20% 20% 20% 20% Coinsurance (out-ofnetwork) * 40% 40% 40% 40% Prescription Coverage Tier Member Responsibility Generic 50% up to $30 Preferred 50% up to $55 n-preferred 65% up to $80 Specialty 50% up to $80 Generic Preferred n-preferred Specialty Once you pay $1,500: $0 co-pay $20 co-pay $40 co-pay $40 co-pay *Once a member s deductible for allowable is met, he or she will pay 40% of the allowable charge, plus 100% of the difference between the allowable charge and billed amount.

7 Pelican HSA775 The Pelican HSA775 offers our lowest premium in addition to a health savings account funded by both employers and employees. Employers contribute $200, then match any employee contributions up to $575. Employees can contribute additional funds on a pre-tax basis, up to $3,350 for an individual and $6,750 for a family, to cover out-of-pocket medical and pharmacy costs. Unused funds are rolled over every year with no limit. Unlike the HRA option, the money in an HSA follows the member even if he or she changes jobs or retires. This plan is available to Active Employees only.

10 Magnolia Local Plus (Nationwide In-Network Providers) The Magnolia Local Plus option offers the benefit of nationwide in-network providers. The Local Plus plan provides the predictability of co-payments rather than using employer funding to offset out-of-pocket costs. This plan provides care in the Blue Cross and Blue Shield nationwide network. Out-of-network is provided in emergencies only and may be subject to balance billing.

11 Magnolia Local Plus Active Employees and non-medicare retirees retirement date on or AFTER Employer Contribution to HRA/HSA Medical Coverage Employee- Only Employee + 1 (Spouse or Child) Employee + Children $0 $0 $0 $0 Deductible (in-network) $400 $800 $1,200 $1,200 Family Deductible (out-of-network) Out-of-pocket max (in-network) $2,500 $5,000 $7,500 $7,500 Out-of-pocket max (out-ofnetwork) Co-Payment (in-network) $25 / $50 $25 / $50 $25/$50 $25/$50 Co-Payment (out-of-network) Prescription Coverage Tier Member Responsibility Generic 50% up to $30 Preferred 50% up to $55 n-preferred 65% up to $80 Specialty 50% up to $80 Once you pay $1,500: Generic Preferred n-preferred Specialty $0 co-pay $20 co-pay $40 co-pay $40 co-pay

13 Magnolia Open Access (Nationwide Providers) The Magnolia Open Access Plan offers both inside and outside of Blue Cross s nationwide network. It differs from the other Magnolia plans in that members enrolled in the open access plan will not pay co-payments at physician visits. Instead, once a member s deductible for allowable charges is met, he or she will pay 10% of the allowable amount for in-network care and 30% of the allowable amount for out-of-network care. Out-of-network care may be balance billed. Though the premiums for the open access plan are higher than OGB s other plans, its moderate deductibles combined with a nationwide network make it an attractive plan for members who live out of state or travel regularly.

19 Vantage Medical Home HMO Vantage Medical Home HMO is a patient-centered approach to providing cost-effective and comprehensive primary health care for children, youth and adults. This plan creates partnerships between the individual patient and his or her personal physician and, when appropriate, the patient s family.

24 Vantage Health Plan Medicare Advantage For retirees who are 65 and over, Vantage offers several great Medicare Advantage plans as an alternative to Medicare.

25 Dependents The following people can be enrolled as dependents: Legal spouse Children until they reach age 26 Children are defined as: Natural child of plan member or Spouse Legally adopted child or child placed for adoption Child under court ordered custody or court ordered legal guardianship (two participating plan members cannot cover the same dependent)

26 Dependents To add a newborn as a dependent, the member must provide human resources with a birth certificate or a copy of the birth letter within 30 days of the child s birth date. The birth letter will suffice as proof of parentage only if it contains the relationship of the child and the employee. If the birth certificate or birth letter is not received within 30 days, enrollment cannot take place until the next annual enrollment period*. * Subject to Plan exceptions

27 Dependent Verification Members must provide human resources with proof of the legal relationship of each newly eligible dependent. Without that documentation, enrollment cannot be completed. Acceptable documents include: Marriage Certificate Birth letter or birth certificate Legal adoption or placement for adoption papers, court ordered custody papers or court ordered legal guardianship papers, if applicable. Human Resources must verify the eligibility of newly eligible dependents.

28 Retirees OGB must be in effect immediately prior to a member s retirement to be eligible for retiree. If the member started participation or rejoined state service on or after January 1, 2002, the state contribution of their premium is based on the number of participation years in an OGB health plan. This also applies to surviving spouse who started after July 1, The participation schedule below shows the number of years a member must participate in an OGB health plan to receive a specified state contribution. Retiree Participation Schedule Years of OGB Plan Participation State s Share of Total Monthly Premium 20 years or more 75 percent 15 years but less than 20 years 56 percent 10 years but less than 15 years 38 percent less than 10 years 19 percent

29 Retirees Medicare Eligibility If a retiree or the covered spouse of a retiree is eligible for premium-free Medicare Part A (hospitalization insurance), he or she MUST ALSO enroll in Medicare Part B (medical insurance) to receive OGB benefits on Medicare Part B claims If the above applies to the member or covered spouse, he or she should visit the local Social Security office to enroll for Medicare Part B at least 3 months before his or her 65 th birthday. This does not apply to anyone who reached age 65 before July 1, 2005 If the plan member is retired but has not yet reached age 65, this will apply to the member when he or she reaches age 65. If the member reached age 65 on or after July 1, 2005, but has not retired, this will apply to the member when he or she retires. This applies to the member and covered spouse regardless of whether each has individual Medicare eligibility (under his/her own Social Security number) or one person is eligible as the dependent of another person. Retirees should bring the name(s) and social security number(s) of previous spouses (divorced or deceased spouse) so that Social Security can determine which spouse they may qualify under.
