Networks 8 Providers ALLOWED AMOUNT BlueEssentials NETWORK The BlueEssentials network provides access to a group of physicians, hospitals and other health care providers that agree to provide health care services to our members at a discounted rate, sometimes referred to as the allowed amount. What you pay for medical care is based on an allowed amount. This is a lower amount that BlueCross BlueShield of South Carolina has negotiated with in-network providers. See page 11 for more information. IN NETWORK To make the most out of your benefits, always choose providers who are in the BlueEssentials network, also known as an exclusive provider organization (EPO). Through this network, you ll receive a discounted rate for health care services. OUT OF NETWORK Refers to health care providers we have not contracted with and who do not participate in the BlueEssentials network. These providers may charge full price for medical care and you will be responsible for all charges, including those above the in-network allowed amount. We do not provide benefits when you visit providers outside the network, except in cases of emergency. in BlueCross makes an agreement with providers to provide services at a discounted rate In-network provider Lower cost to member Member out Out-of-network provider: benefits are not paid
Networks 9 Providers (Continued) PROVIDER NETWORK Our individual BlueEssentials plans come with access to our BlueEssentials Network, also known as an EPO. We only cover services provided by an in-network provider. We will not cover services given by an out-of-network provider unless a service is due to an emergency or is not available at an in-network provider. In this instance, we will cover the services an out-of-network provider offers at the in-network coinsurance amount. These providers can bill you for the difference in the allowed amount and their actual changes. IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT PREAUTHORIZATION A preauthorization is also known as a prior authorization, prior approval or precertification. A preauthorized service is one that BlueCross determines to be medically necessary for a patient s condition. Preauthorization, however, does not guarantee we will pay benefits for the service. Contract limitations or exclusions may apply. Additionally, a preauthorization may only be for a specific period of time or number of visits or treatments. You or your doctor must get a preauthorization for certain categories of benefits. Failure to get a preauthorization will result in a denial of your benefits. We make our final benefit determination when we process your claims. In-network providers in South Carolina are familiar with this requirement and they will request any necessary preauthorization for you. If an in-network provider in South Carolina does not get a preauthorization, the provider cannot bill you for the services.
Financials 10 Eligibility ADVANCED PREMIUM TAX CREDIT (APTC) The APTC is a federal subsidy that assists qualifying individuals and families by reducing the monthly premium amount to make health insurance affordable. The amount of APTC an individual or family receives is based on the individual s or family s annual income compared to the Federal Poverty Level (FPL) and the cost of the second cheapest Silver plan available to that individual or family, in their service area. The individual or family can still choose any of our Gold, Silver or Bronze plans, however, and receive the APTC. EXAMPLE: A family of four has a household income of $47,100 a year. That places the family at 200 percent of the FPL. Per ACA guidelines, the percentage the family is responsible for is 6.3 percent of their income ($247.28 per month). If the second cheapest Silver plan in the family s service area is $432.67 per month, the APTC amount is the difference ($432.67-247.28) = $185.39. COST-SHARING REDUCTIONS Members who qualify for the APTC may also be eligible for lower out-of-pocket costs, or cost-sharing reductions (CSR). To receive CSR, the individual or family must choose a Silver plan. EXAMPLE: An individual selects BlueEssentials Silver 2. Normally, the Silver 2 plan s coinsurance is 40 percent, deductible is $2,000 and the out-of-pocket maximum is $6,350. Based on the individual s APTC eligibility and household income, the member also qualifies for CSR resulting in a reduced coinsurance of 20 percent, deductible of $200 and out-ofpocket maximum of $2,250. The same Silver plan s CSR may be higher or lower, depending on the individual s income. Copayments for office visits and drugs may also be reduced. EXAMPLE OF HOW A TAX CREDIT WORKS WITH A HEALTH PLAN: The monthly cost for a health plan (cost depends on which health plan you choose) Subtract the government tax credit (money paid to the insurance company) YOU WOULD PAY $432.67 per month $185.39 per month $247.28 per month POVERTY LEVELS The FPL is a measure of income level issued annually by the Department of Health and Human Services. Federal poverty levels are used to determine your eligibility for certain programs and benefits. The amounts on the next page are 2014 numbers and used for calculating eligibility for APTC, Medicaid and the Children s Health Insurance Program (CHIP).

Enrollment 13 Sign Up WHEN CAN I ENROLL? BlueCross is here to help you understand how the health care reform law will impact you and your family. Once a year, individuals can apply for health insurance during the Open Enrollment Period (OEP). This year, OEP will be from November 15, 2014, to February 15, 2015. These dates are especially important as they indicate when your new policy will become effective: ENROLLMENT DATE EFFECTIVE DATE November 15 through December 15, 2014 January 1, 2015 December 16, 2014 through January 15, 2015 February 1, 2015 January 16 through February 15, 2015 March 1, 2015 NOTE: It s important to remember that a tax penalty may be charged to individuals who are uninsured for any period during the year. SPECIAL ENROLLMENT PERIOD (SEP) This is the time outside of the OEP during which you re allowed to buy health insurance, provided you have a qualifying life event (QLE). In most cases, you qualify for a SEP within 60 days following the QLE. WHAT IS A QUALIFYING LIFE EVENT? A QLE is a significant change in a person s circumstances. Here are some examples of QLEs: QUALIFYING EVENT ENROLLMENT PERIOD EVENT DATE APPLICATION SUBMISSION DATE Marriage Within 60 days after marriage July 4 July 28 August 1 Birth Within 60 days after birth April 20 May 6 April 20 EFFECTIVE DATE Loss of Minimum Essential Coverage Within 60 days before or after termination of other coverage November 1 November 21 December 1
Enrollment 14 The Plans Gold, Silver and Bronze aren t just the metals used for Olympic medalists. Along with Platinum, these metals denote the different levels of coverage mandated by the ACA. BLUE CROSS PLANS Here are some key things to know before you start to shop for a plan. BlueEssentials plans are divided into two categories: the metallic plans (Gold, Silver and Bronze) and the Catastrophic Plan. Anyone can buy a metallic plan, but only certain people qualify for a Catastrophic plan. The Gold, Silver and Bronze plans Each plan must cover the same set of minimum essential health benefits. While the range of benefits is the same among the plans, the value of the benefits will vary. This means the amount you pay yourself, such as a copayment, coinsurance or deductible, is different. These metal levels can help you compare plans, the monthly premiums and costs for services for things like doctors or hospital visits. The Catastrophic Plan Young adults and people for whom coverage is otherwise unaffordable can purchase a Catastrophic plan. A Catastrophic plan can be offered to an individual who: Is under age 30 before the plan year begins. Has received certification from the Marketplace stating he or she is exempt from the individual mandate because he or she does not have an affordable coverage option or qualifies for a hardship exemption. EPO An EPO plan offers comprehensive health services from participating health care providers. HIGH DEDUCTIBLE HEALTH PLAN (HDHP) This health care coverage puts you in control of your health care expenses by keeping your costs down while providing great benefits and options to make your dollar go farther. All of the HDHP plans have access to the EPO network.
