If currently enrolled in a medical plan through CalPERS, you will need to select a new SISC medical plan. 5. Can I waive medical coverage if I already have coverage through a spouse? Full-time employees working 90% or greater who waived medical coverage in 2015 can waive coverage under SISC. These employees will be grandfathered and do not need to enroll in a medical plan but will need to provide proof of other group coverage.

Please plan to meet with an AFA benefits counselor to review other plan options and enroll or re-enroll in your flexible spending accounts (Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account & Health Care Flexible Spending Account) if you would like to continue to participate. 6. If I currently waive coverage do I need to do anything? Yes. During this open enrollment period, all employees waiving benefits will need to provide current proof of other health coverage. This proof can be provided with a copy of your current insurance card, a letter from your current insurance carrier stating you are currently covered, or a letter from the employer that carries the other health insurance stating you are currently covered. Proof must be provided to the benefit counselor from AFA during the one-on-one appointment. 7. How do I make changes to medical and/or dental coverage?

These documents must then be turned into your payroll & benefits technician at the District office. Dependent verification will also be required (i.e., tax return, birth certificate, etc.) 11. Do I have an opportunity to drop insurance coverage? If you currently work full-time and are already enrolled in a medical plan, you must enroll in a SISC medical plan. You are not allowed to drop this coverage. However, you may drop your dental and/or your vision coverage. Full-time employees currently waiving medical coverage may continue to waive medical coverage and may drop dental and/or vision coverage. If you currently work part-time, you may drop coverage. Please be sure you bring proof of other coverage when you meet with an AFA benefit counselor. 12. Do I have to select a primary care physician (PCP)? Yes, but only if you are enrolling in one of the Anthem HMO plans. If you don t select a PCP at the time of enrollment, you will be auto assigned to a PCP. You may change this PCP at any time by contacting Anthem using the number on the back of your ID card. 13. Do I have to select a new primary care physician (PCP)? In most cases, you may keep your current PCP and other specialists. You may contact your providers to see if they are contracted with Anthem HMO or PPO or visit the Anthem website to see if your PCP/Specialist is contracted (www.anthem.com/ca/sisc) or you may login to the District s MyBenefits site to view the Anthem directory. 14. I currently have Blue Shield coverage. Will I have access to the same providers under one of the Anthem plans? Most likely. Many providers are contracted with multiple carriers. You may access the Anthem provider directory online at www.anthem.com/ca/sisc or you may login to the District s MyBenefits site to view the Anthem directory. Please note that contracting may differ between the HMO and PPO plans. Be sure to check this when viewing the website. 15. I currently have United HealthCare coverage. Will I have access to the same providers under one of the Anthem plans? Most likely. Many providers are contracted with multiple carriers. You may access the Anthem provider directory online at www.anthem.com/ca/sisc or you may login to the District s MyBenefits site to view the Anthem directory. Please note that contracting may differ between the HMO and PPO plans. Be sure to check this when viewing the website. (Note: Anthem and Sutter Medical Group and Hospitals are currently in contract negotiations for January 1, 2016 effective date). 16. Will I get a new ID card? If you are a current Kaiser member and enroll with Kaiser, you will not receive a new ID card. If you enroll in one of the Anthem plans, you will receive a new ID card prior to January 1, 2016. 12

17. Who may I contact if I have questions regarding the drug formulary on any of the Anthem plans? You may call Navitus at (866) 333-2757 and identify yourself as being a part of SISC but not yet active. Provide them with the Rx plan you would like to enroll in either the $7/$25 or the $15/$50. Navitus will be able to assist you with how your current drugs will be covered under the new Anthem plans. 18. I am currently using mail order to obtain my prescriptions. What will I need to do to transfer my prescriptions? If you are enrolling in Kaiser, you do not need to do anything. If you are enrolling in any non-kaiser plan, you will need to obtain a new prescription and submit it to Costco, the mail-order vendor. You may download the mail order form from the Costco website: http://sisc.kern.org/hw/wp-files/hw/2003/03/costco-mail-registration-form.pdf Additional information regarding Costco s mail order program can be found: http://sisc.kern.org/hw/wp-files/hw/2003/03/costco-mail-brochure.pdf YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO SUBMIT YOUR FORM TO COSTCO UNTIL THE ELIGIBILITY INFORMATION HAS BEEN SENT TO SISC. WE ANTICPATE THIS TO BE ON OR ABOUT DECEMBER 1, 2015. 19. I also will have coverage under my spouse s plan, how will benefits be coordinated between the two plans? The District s plan that you enroll in as an employee will be considered your primary plan and the benefits pay first. Your spouse s plan will be your secondary plan. Coordination of benefits is dependent upon whether or not your spouse s plan coordinates benefits. The Evidence of Coverage booklet for your spouse s plan will detail whether or not benefits are coordinated and, if so, how they will be coordinated. For dependent children who are dual covered, the plan of the parent whose birthdate falls first in the year is primary and will pay first. There is limited coordination of benefits between two different HMO plans or an HMO and PPO. Typically, coordination of benefits is mostly between two PPO plans. Likewise, there may be some coordination between two Kaiser traditional plans. For more information regarding coordination of benefits, please contact the carriers to discuss your specific questions. 13

MEDICARE PART D NOTICE Important Notice from Twin Rivers Unified School District About Your Prescription Drug Coverage and Medicare This Notice Applies to You (or Dependent) ONLY if such person is (1) enrolled in a group medical plan offered by Twin Rivers Unified School District AND (2) eligible for Medicare Please read this notice carefully and keep it where you can find it. This notice has information about your current prescription drug coverage with Twin Rivers Unified School District and about your options under Medicare s prescription drug coverage. This information can help you decide whether or not you want to join a Medicare drug plan. If you are considering joining, you should compare your current coverage, including which drugs are covered at what cost, with the coverage and costs of the plans offering Medicare prescription drug coverage in your area. Information about where you can get help to make decisions about your prescription drug coverage is at the end of this notice. There are two important things you need to know about your current coverage and Medicare s prescription drug coverage: 1. Medicare prescription drug coverage became available in 2006 to everyone with Medicare. You can get this coverage if you join a Medicare Prescription Drug Plan or join a Medicare Advantage Plan (like an HMO or PPO) that offers prescription drug coverage. All Medicare drug plans provide at least a standard level of coverage set by Medicare. Some plans may also offer more coverage for a higher monthly premium. 2. Twin Rivers Unified School District has determined that the prescription drug coverage offered by SISC is, on average for all plan participants, expected to pay out as much as standard Medicare prescription drug coverage pays and is therefore considered Creditable Coverage. Because your new coverage is Creditable Coverage, you can keep this coverage and not pay a higher premium (a penalty) if you later decide to join a Medicare drug plan. When Can You Join A Medicare Drug Plan? You can join a Medicare drug plan when you first become eligible for Medicare and each year from October 15th to December 7th. However, if you lose your current creditable prescription drug coverage, through no fault of your own, you will also be eligible for a two (2) month Special Enrollment Period (SEP) to join a Medicare drug plan. What Happens To Your Current Coverage If You Decide to Join A Medicare Drug Plan? If you decide to join a Medicare drug plan, your current Twin Rivers Unified School District coverage may be affected. Your current coverage pays for other health expenses in addition to prescription drugs. If you enroll in a Medicare prescription drug plan, you and your eligible dependents may not be eligible to receive all of your current health and prescription drug benefits. If you do decide to join a Medicare drug plan and drop your current Twin Rivers Unified School District coverage, be aware that you and your dependents may not be able to get this coverage back. When Will You Pay A Higher Premium (Penalty) To Join A Medicare Drug Plan? You should also know that if you drop or lose your current coverage with Twin Rivers Unified School District and don t join a Medicare drug plan within 63 continuous days after your current coverage ends, you may pay a higher premium (a penalty) to join a Medicare drug plan later. If you go 63 continuous days or longer without creditable prescription drug coverage, your monthly premium may go up by at least 1% of the Medicare base beneficiary premium per month for every month that you did not have that coverage. For example, if you go nineteen months without creditable coverage, your premium may consistently be at least 19% higher than the Medicare base beneficiary premium. You may have to pay this higher premium (a penalty) as long as you have Medicare prescription drug coverage. In addition, you may have to wait until the following October to join. 15

IMPORTANT NOTICES Summary of Benefits and Coverage (SBC) As an employee, the health benefits available to you represent a significant component of your compensation package. They also provide important protection for you and your family in the case of illness or injury. Your plan offers a series of health coverage options. Choosing a health coverage option is an important decision. To help you make an informed choice, your plan makes available a Summary of Benefits and Coverage (SBC), which summarizes important information about any health coverage option in a standard format, to help you compare across options. The SBCs and a uniform glossary are available on the District s MyBenefits website at: https://pcms.plansource.com. A paper copy is also available, free of charge by calling 916-566-1600. Use ext. 50327 If your last name begins with A-L or ext. 86318 if your last name begins with M-Z. Newborns and Mothers Health Protection Act Group health plans and health insurance issuers generally may not, under federal law, restrict benefits for any hospital length of stay in connection with childbirth for the mother or newborn child to less than 48 hours following a vaginal delivery, or less than 96 hours following a cesarean section. However, federal law generally does not prohibit the mother s or newborn s attending provider, after consulting with the mother, from discharging the mother or her newborn earlier than 48 hours (or 96 hours as applicable). In any case, plans and issuers may not, under Federal law, require that a provider obtain authorization from the plan or the insurance issuer for prescribing a length of stay not in excess of 48 hours (or 96 hours). If you would like more information on maternity benefits, contact your health plan. Special Enrollment Notice If an eligible employee declines enrollment in a group health plan for the employee or the employee s spouse or dependents because of other health insurance or group health plan coverage, the eligible employee may be able to enroll him/herself and eligible dependents in this plan if eligibility is lost for the other coverage (or because the employer stops contributing toward this other coverage). However, the eligible employee must request enrollment within 30 days after the other coverage ends (or after the employer ceases contributions for the coverage). In addition, if an eligible employee acquires a new dependent as a result of marriage, birth, adoption or placement for adoption, the eligible employee may be able to enroll him/herself and any eligible dependents, provided that the eligible employee requests enrollment within 30 days after the marriage, birth, adoption, or placement for adoption. If the eligible employee otherwise declines to enroll, he/she may be required to wait until the District s next open enrollment to do so. The eligible employee also may be subject to additional limitations on the coverage available at that time. Furthermore, eligible employees and their eligible dependents who are eligible for coverage but not enrolled, shall be eligible to enroll for coverage within 60 days after becoming ineligible for coverage under a Medicaid or Children s Health Insurance Plan (CHIP) plan or being determined to be eligible for financial assistance under a Medicaid, CHIP, or state plan with respect to coverage under the plan. Women s Health and Cancer Rights Act Annual Notice (WHCRA) If you have had or are going to have a mastectomy, you may be entitled to certain benefits under the Women s Health and Cancer Rights Act of 1998 (WHCRA). For individuals receiving mastectomy-related benefits, coverage will be provided in a manner determined in consultation with the attending physician and the patient, for: All stages of reconstruction of the breast on which the mastectomy was performed; Surgery and reconstruction of the other breast to produce a symmetrical appearance; Prostheses; and Treatment of physical complications of the mastectomy, including lymphedema. These benefits will be provided subject to the same deductibles and coinsurance applicable to other medical and surgical benefits provided under this plan. If you would like more information on WHCRA benefits, contact your health plan. Patient Protection Notice Kaiser and Anthem generally requires the designation of a primary care provider for the HMO plans. You have the right to designate any primary care provider who participates in our network and who is available to accept you or your family members. Until you make this designation, Kaiser and Anthem will designate one for you. For information on how to select a primary care provider, and for a list of the participating primary care providers, contact Kaiser or Anthem member services at the number on your insurance card. For children, you may designate a pediatrician as the primary care provider. You do not need prior authorization from Kaiser, Anthem or from any other person (including a primary care provider) in order to obtain access to obstetrical or gynecological care from a health care professional in our network who specializes in obstetrics or gynecology. The health care professional, however, may be required to comply with certain procedures, including obtaining prior authorization for certain services, following a pre approved treatment plan, or procedures for making referrals. For a list of participating health care professionals who specialize in obstetrics or gynecology, contact member services at the number on your insurance card. 17
