The information in this document is based on BCBSM s current interpretation of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA). Interpretations of PPACA vary and the federal government continues to issue guidance on how PPACA should be interpreted and applied. Efforts will be made to update this document as more information about PPACA bec omes available. This document is only an educational tool and should not be relied upon as legal or compliance advice. Additionally, some PPACA requirements may differ for particular members enrolled in certain programs, and those members should consult with their plan administrators for specific details. This is intended as an easy-to-read summary and provides only a general overview of your benefits. It is not a contract. Additional limitations and exclusions may apply. Payment amounts are based on BCBSM s approved amount, less any applicable deductible and/or copay. For a complete description of benefits please see the applicable BCBSM certificates and riders, if your group is underwritten or any other plan documents your group uses, if your group is self-funded. If there is a discrepancy between this Benefits-At-A-Glance and any applicable plan document, the plan document will control.

Selecting a Provider When you use Trinity Health facilities and satellite locations, you receive the highest benefit payment level. A listing of eligible facilities is available online at bsbsm.com. Network Providers Network providers have signed agreements with BCBS, which means they agree to accept our approved payment for a covered benefit as payment in full. You will only pay for the deductibles, copayments and coinsurances required by your coverage. Ask your physician if he or she participates with the BCBS PPO network in your plan area. If you need help locating a network provider, please call the phone number to locate a BCBS network provider or visit the Web site listed on the inside front cover of this handbook. When you go to network providers, you do not have to send a claim to us. Network providers submit claims to BCBS for you, and they are paid directly by BCBS. Nonparticipating (Out-of-Network) Providers Nonparticipating providers have not signed agreements with BCBS. This means they may or may not choose to accept the BCBS approved amount as payment in full for your health care services. If your present providers do not participate with BCBS, ask if they will accept the amount we approve as payment in full for the services you need. This is called participating on a "per claim" basis and means that the providers will accept the approved amount as payment in full for the specific services. You are responsible for any deductibles, copayments, and coinsurances required by your plan along with charges for non-covered services.
