For the detais on what medica care is covered by our pan and how much you pay when you get this care, use the benefits chart in the next chapter, Chapter 4 (Medica Benefits Chart, what is covered and what you pay). Section 1.1 What are network providers and covered services? Here are some definitions that can hep you understand how you get the care and services that are covered for you as a member of our pan: Providers are doctors and other heath care professionas icensed by the state to provide medica services and care. The term providers aso incudes hospitas and other heath care faciities. Network providers are the doctors and other heath care professionas, medica groups, hospitas, and other heath care faciities that have an agreement with us to accept our payment and your cost-sharing amount as payment in fu. We have arranged for these providers to deiver covered services to members in our pan. The providers in our network generay bi us directy for care they give you. When you see a network provider, you usuay pay ony your share of the cost for their services. Covered services incude a the medica care, heath care services, suppies, and equipment that are covered by our pan. Your covered services for medica care are isted in the benefits chart in Chapter 4. Section 1.2 Basic rues for getting your medica care covered by the pan As a Medicare heath pan, our pan must cover a services covered by Origina Medicare and must foow Origina Medicare s coverage rues. Our pan wi generay cover your medica care as ong as: The care you receive is incuded in the pan s Medica Benefits Chart (this chart is in Chapter 4 of this booket).

51 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) Chapter 3: Using the pan's coverage for your medica services 49 The care you receive is considered medicay necessary. Medicay necessary means that the services, suppies, or drugs are needed for the prevention, diagnosis, or treatment of your medica condition and meet accepted standards of medica practice. You have a network primary care provider (a PCP) who is providing and overseeing your care. As a member of our pan, you must choose a network PCP (for more information about this, see Section 2.1 in this chapter). In most situations, your network PCP must give you approva in advance before you can use other providers in the pan s network, such as speciaists, hospitas, skied nursing faciities, or home heath care agencies. This is caed giving you a referra. For more information about this, see Section 2.3 of this chapter. Referras from your PCP are not required for emergency care or urgenty needed care. There are aso some other kinds of care you can get without having approva in advance from your PCP (for more information about this, see Section 2.2 of this chapter). You must receive your care from a network provider (for more information about this, see Section 2 in this chapter). In most cases, care you receive from an out-of-network provider (a provider who is not part of our pan s network) wi not be covered. Here are three exceptions: The pan covers emergency care or urgenty needed care that you get from an out-of-network provider. For more information about this, and to see what emergency or urgenty needed care means, see Section 3 in this chapter. If you need medica care that Medicare requires our pan to cover and the providers in our network cannot provide this care, you can get this care from an out-of-network provider. Pease ca us to find out about the authorization rues that you may need to foow prior to seeking care. In this situation, you wi pay the same as you woud pay if you got the care from a network provider. For information about getting approva to see an out-of-network doctor, see Section 2.4 in this chapter.

SECTION 2 Section 2.1 Use providers in the pan s network to get your medica care You must choose a Primary Care Provider (PCP) to provide and oversee your medica care

52 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) Chapter 3: Using the pan's coverage for your medica services 50 What is a PCP and what does the PCP do for you? When you become a member of our pan, you must choose a pan provider to be your primary care provider (PCP). Your PCP is a heath care professiona who meets state requirements and is trained to give you basic medica care. The PCPs in our network incude famiy practitioners, internists, and genera practitioners. You wi usuay see your PCP first for most of your routine heath care needs. There are ony a few types of covered services you can get on your own without contacting your PCP first. Exampe: femae members may see their gynecoogist at any time without a referra from the PCP (for more information see Section 2.2 of this chapter). Your PCP wi provide most of your care and wi hep you arrange or coordinate the covered services you get as a member of our pan, incuding: X-rays Laboratory tests Physica, Occupationa and/or Speech Therapies Care from doctors who are speciaists Hospita admissions Menta or Behaviora Heath Services Foow-up care Coordinating your services incudes checking or consuting with other pan providers about your care and how it is going. If you need certain types of covered services or suppies, you must get approva in advance from your PCP (such as giving you a referra). In some cases, your PCP wi need to get prior authorization (prior approva) from us. Since your PCP wi provide and coordinate your medica care, you shoud have a of your past medica records sent to your PCP s office. How do you choose your PCP? As a member of our pan, you wi need to choose a PCP upon enroment. You can aso choose a PCP by caing Customer Service (See Chapter 2, Section 1 on how to contact Customer Service). If you do not see your current PCP in the directory, you may want to ca your current PCP to see if he/she woud recommend a PCP isted in the Provider & Pharmacy Directory suppied to you. Changing your PCP You may change your PCP for any reason, at any time. Aso, it s possibe that your PCP might eave our pan s network of providers and you woud have to find a new PCP.

53 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) Chapter 3: Using the pan's coverage for your medica services 51 The effective date of your PCP change may vary, depending on the date you request the change (see exampe beow). Simpy ca Customer Service and we wi check to make sure the new doctor is accepting new patients. You shoud aso ask whether the new PCP has a referra reationship with any speciaists or other pan providers you see who are providing covered services that need a PCP s approva (such as home heath services and durabe medica equipment). Customer Service wi hep make sure that you can continue with the speciaty care and other services you have been getting when you change to a new PCP. Customer Service wi change your membership record to show the name of your new PCP and te you when the change to your new PCP wi take effect. They wi aso send you a new membership card that shows the name and phone number of your new PCP. Exampe: If your PCP request is made on or before January 10, 2015, the change can be made effective January 1, If your request is made on or after January 11, 2015, then the change wi become effective on February 1, The Case Management department, aong with the Customer Service department, wi assist a members with PCP changes.

(If possibe, pease ca Customer Service before you eave the service area so we can hep arrange for you to have maintenance diaysis whie you are away. Phone numbers for Customer Service are printed on the back cover of this booket.)

54 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) Chapter 3: Using the pan's coverage for your medica services 52 Medicare-covered preventive services. You wi see an appe next to these services in the benefits chart in Chapter 4 Section 2.1. Section 2.3 How to get care from speciaists and other network providers A speciaist is a doctor who provides heath care services for a specific disease or part of the body. There are many kinds of speciaists. Here are a few exampes: Oncoogists care for patients with cancer. Cardioogists care for patients with heart conditions. Orthopedists care for patients with certain bone, joint, or musce conditions. When your PCP thinks that you need speciaized treatment, he or she may give you a referra to see a pan speciaist. Once you have been referred to a specific pan speciaist, you do not need a new referra from your PCP to see the same pan speciaist again. For some types of services, your PCP or pan speciaist may need to get approva in advance from the pan (prior authorization). Prior authorization may be granted for a certain number of visits. When this happens, your PCP or speciaist may need to request approva from the pan again for more visits. See the benefits chart in Chapter 4 Section 2.1 to earn which services may need prior authorization. Each pan PCP may have certain pan providers which he/she refers patients. (This is caed a referra reationship.) If there is a specific pan provider you want to see (incuding a speciaist), find out whether your PCP refers patients to this provider. The name and office teephone number of your PCP is printed on your membership card. Keep in mind, if you want to see a pan provider that your PCP does not currenty refer to, te your PCP the name of the pan provider you want to see. You have the right to request referra to a different pan provider than the one seected by your PCP. What if a speciaist or another network provider eaves our pan? We may make changes to the hospitas, doctors, and speciaists (providers) that are part of your pan during the year. There are a number of reasons why your provider might eave your pan but if your doctor or speciaist does eave your pan you have certain rights and protections that are summarized beow: Even though our network of providers may change during the year, Medicare requires that we furnish you with uninterrupted access to quaified doctors and speciaists. When possibe we wi provide you with at east 30 days notice that your provider is eaving our pan so that you have time to seect a new provider.

55 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) Chapter 3: Using the pan's coverage for your medica services 53 We wi assist you in seecting a new quaified provider to continue managing your heath care needs. If you are undergoing medica treatment you have the right to request, and we wi work with you to ensure, that the medicay necessary treatment you are receiving is not interrupted. If you beieve we have not furnished you with a quaified provider to repace your previous provider or that your care is not being appropriatey managed you have the right to fie an appea of our decision. If you find out your doctor or speciaist is eaving your pan pease contact us so we can assist you in finding a new provider and managing your care. You can ca Customer Service (phone numbers are printed on the back cover of this booket). Section 2.4 How to get care from out-of-network providers If you need medica care that Medicare requires our pan to cover and the providers in our network cannot provide this care, you can get this care from an out-of-network provider. In this situation, you wi pay the same as you woud pay if you got the care from a network provider. Before seeking care from an out-of-network provider, tak to your primary care provider (PCP). He or she wi notify us by requesting approva from the pan ("prior authorization"). If you get non-emergency care from out-of-network providers without prior authorization, you must pay the entire cost yoursef. Limited cases such as emergency care, urgenty needed care when our network is not avaiabe, or diaysis out of the service area, do not require prior authorization and are aways covered at the in-network benefit eve, even when you get them from out-of-network providers. SECTION 3 Section 3.1 How to get covered services when you have an emergency or urgent need for care Getting care if you have a medica emergency What is a medica emergency and what shoud you do if you have one? A medica emergency is when you, or any other prudent ayperson with an average knowedge of heath and medicine, beieve that you have medica symptoms that require immediate medica attention to prevent oss of ife, oss of a imb, or oss

If we are unabe to arrange your care with a network provider, we wi cover your care unti your medica condition and circumstances aow transfer to a network provider or discharge. What if it wasn t a medica emergency? Sometimes it can be hard to know if you have a medica emergency. For exampe, you might go in for emergency care thinking that your heath is in serious danger and the doctor may say that it wasn t a medica emergency after a. If it turns out that it was not an emergency, as ong as you reasonaby thought your heath was in serious danger, we wi cover your care.

57 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) Chapter 3: Using the pan's coverage for your medica services 55 However, after the doctor has said that it was not an emergency, we wi cover additiona care ony if you get the additiona care in one of these two ways: You go to a network provider to get the additiona care. - or - the additiona care you get is considered urgenty needed care and you foow the rues for getting this urgent care (for more information about this, see Section 3.2 beow). Section 3.2 Getting care when you have an urgent need for care What is urgenty needed care? Urgenty needed care is a non-emergency, unforeseen medica iness, injury, or condition, that requires immediate medica care. Urgenty needed care may be furnished by in-network providers or by out-of-network providers when network providers are temporariy unavaiabe or inaccessibe. The unforeseen condition coud, for exampe, be an unforeseen fare-up of a known condition that you have. What if you are in the pan s service area when you have an urgent need for care? In most situations, if you are in the pan s service area, we wi cover urgenty needed care ony if you get this care from a network provider and foow the other rues described earier in this chapter. However, if the circumstances are unusua or extraordinary, and network providers are temporariy unavaiabe or inaccessibe, we wi cover urgenty needed care that you get from an out-of-network provider. Pease contact your PCP s office 24 hours a day if you need urgent care. You may be directed to obtain urgent care at a pan urgent care center. A ist of pan urgent care centers can be found in the Provider & Pharmacy Directory or on our website at If urgent care services are received in your doctor s office, you wi pay the office visit co-payment; however, if urgent care services are received at a pan urgent care center, you wi pay the urgent care center co-payment, which may be different. See Chapter 4. Medica Benefits Chart (what is covered and what you pay) for the co-payment that appies to services provided in a doctor s office or pan urgent care center. What if you are outside the pan s service area when you have an urgent need for care? When you are outside the service area and cannot get care from a network provider, our pan wi cover urgenty needed care that you get from any provider.

58 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) Chapter 3: Using the pan's coverage for your medica services 56 In addition, our pan offers coverage for urgenty needed care wordwide whenever you need it. For more information about this benefit, see Chapter 4. Benefits Chart (what is covered and what you pay). SECTION 4 Section 4.1 What if you are bied directy for the fu cost of your covered services? You can ask us to pay our share of the cost of covered services If you have paid more than your share for covered services, or if you have received a bi for the fu cost of covered medica services, go to Chapter 7 (Asking us to pay our share of a bi you have received for covered medica services or drugs) for information about what to do. Section 4.2 If services are not covered by our pan, you must pay the fu cost Our pan covers a medica services that are medicay necessary, are isted in the pan s Medica Benefits Chart (this chart is in Chapter 4 of this booket), and are obtained consistent with pan rues. You are responsibe for paying the fu cost of services that aren t covered by our pan, either because they are not pan covered services, or they were obtained out-of-network and were not authorized. If you have any questions about whether we wi pay for any medica service or care that you are considering, you have the right to ask us whether we wi cover it before you get it. If we say we wi not cover your services, you have the right to appea our decision not to cover your care.

You may aso ca Customer Service to get more information about how to do this (phone numbers are printed on the back cover of this booket). For covered services that have a benefit imitation, you pay the fu cost of any services you get after you have used up your benefit for that type of covered service. Costs paid once a benefit imit has been reached wi not count toward your out-of-pocket maximum. This is because services provided after a benefit imit has been reached are not covered by the pan. For more information, see Chapter 4,

59 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) Chapter 3: Using the pan's coverage for your medica services 57 Section 1.2. You can ca Customer Service when you want to know how much of your benefit imit you have aready used. SECTION 5 Section 5.1 How are your medica services covered when you are in a cinica research study? What is a cinica research study? A cinica research study (aso caed a "cinica tria") is a way that doctors and scientists test new types of medica care, ike how we a new cancer drug works. They test new medica care procedures or drugs by asking for vounteers to hep with the study. This kind of study is one of the fina stages of a research process that heps doctors and scientists see if a new approach works and if it is safe. Not a cinica research studies are open to members of our pan. Medicare first needs to approve the research study. If you participate in a study that Medicare has not approved, you wi be responsibe for paying a costs for your participation in the study. Once Medicare approves the study, someone who works on the study wi contact you to expain more about the study and see if you meet the requirements set by the scientists who are running the study. You can participate in the study as ong as you meet the requirements for the study and you have a fu understanding and acceptance of what is invoved if you participate in the study. If you participate in a Medicare-approved study, Origina Medicare pays most of the costs for the covered services you receive as part of the study. When you are in a cinica research study, you may stay enroed in our pan and continue to get the rest of your care (the care that is not reated to the study) through our pan. If you want to participate in a Medicare-approved cinica research study, you do not need to get approva from us or your PCP. The providers that deiver your care as part of the cinica research study do not need to be part of our pan s network of providers. Athough you do not need to get our pan s permission to be in a cinica research study, you do need to te us before you start participating in a cinica research study. Here is why you need to te us: 1. We can et you know whether the cinica research study is Medicare-approved.

60 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) Chapter 3: Using the pan's coverage for your medica services We can te you what services you wi get from cinica research study providers instead of from our pan. If you pan on participating in a cinica research study, contact Customer Service (phone numbers are printed on the back cover of this booket). Section 5.2 When you participate in a cinica research study, who pays for what? Once you join a Medicare-approved cinica research study, you are covered for routine items and services you receive as part of the study, incuding: Room and board for a hospita stay that Medicare woud pay for even if you weren t in a study. An operation or other medica procedure if it is part of the research study. Treatment of side effects and compications of the new care. Origina Medicare pays most of the cost of the covered services you receive as part of the study. After Medicare has paid its share of the cost for these services, our pan wi aso pay for part of the costs. We wi pay the difference between the cost-sharing in Origina Medicare and your cost-sharing as a member of our pan. This means you wi pay the same amount for the services you receive as part of the study as you woud if you received these services from our pan. Here s an exampe of how the cost-sharing works: Let s say that you have a ab test that costs $100 as part of the research study. Let s aso say that your share of the costs for this test is $20 under Origina Medicare, but the test woud be $10 under our pan s benefits. In this case, Origina Medicare woud pay $80 for the test and we woud pay another $10. This means that you woud pay $10, which is the same amount you woud pay under our pan s benefits. In order for us to pay for our share of the costs, you wi need to submit a request for payment.

Section 1.3 Our pan does not aow providers to baance bi you SECTION 2 Use the Medica Benefits Chart to find out what is covered for you and how much you wi pay Section 2.1 Your medica benefits and costs as a member of the pan SECTION 3 What benefits are not covered by the pan? Section 3.1 Benefits we do not cover (excusions)

65 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) Chapter 4: Medica Benefits Chart (what is covered and what you pay) 63 SECTION 1 Understanding your out-of-pocket costs for covered services This chapter focuses on your covered services and what you pay for your medica benefits. It incudes a Medica Benefits Chart that ists your covered services and shows how much you wi pay for each covered service as a member of our pan. Later in this chapter, you can find information about medica services that are not covered. It aso expains imits on certain services. Section 1.1 Types of out-of-pocket costs you may pay for your covered services To understand the payment information we give you in this chapter, you need to know about the types of out-of-pocket costs you may pay for your covered services. A co-payment is the fixed amount you pay each time you receive certain medica services. You pay a co-payment at the time you get the medica service. (The Medica Benefits Chart in Section 2 tes you more about your co-payments.) Coinsurance is the percentage you pay of the tota cost of certain medica services. You pay a coinsurance at the time you get the medica service. (The Medica Benefits Chart in Section 2 tes you more about your coinsurance.) Some peope quaify for State Medicaid programs to hep them pay their out-of-pocket costs for Medicare. (These Medicare Savings Programs incude the Quaified Medicare Beneficiary (QMB), Specified Low-Income Medicare Beneficiary (SLMB), Quaifying Individua (QI), and Quaified Disabed & Working Individuas (QDWI) programs.) If you are enroed in one of these programs, you may sti have to pay a co-payment for the service, depending on the rues in your state. Section 1.2 What is the most you wi pay for Medicare Part A and Part B covered medica services? Because you are enroed in a Medicare Advantage Pan, there is a imit to how much you have to pay out-of-pocket each year for in-network medica services that are covered under Medicare Part A and Part B (see the Medica Benefits Chart in Section 2, beow). This imit is caed the maximum out-of-pocket amount for medica services. As a member of our pan, the most you wi have to pay out-of-pocket for in-network covered Part A and Part B services in 2015 is $6,700. The amounts you pay for co-payments and coinsurance for in-network covered services count toward this maximum out-of-pocket amount. (The amounts you pay for your pan premium and for your Part D prescription drugs do not count toward your maximum out-of-pocket

66 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) Chapter 4: Medica Benefits Chart (what is covered and what you pay) 64 amount. In addition, amounts you pay for some services do not count toward your maximum out-of-pocket amount. These services are marked with an asterisk (*) in the Medica Benefits Chart.) If you reach the maximum out-of-pocket amount of $6,700, you wi not have to pay any out-of-pocket costs for the rest of the year for in-network covered Part A and Part B services. However, you must continue to pay your pan premium and the Medicare Part B premium (uness your Part B premium is paid for you by Medicaid or another third party). Section 1.3 Our pan does not aow providers to "baance bi" you As a member of our pan, an important protection for you is that you ony have to pay your cost-sharing amount when you get services covered by our pan. We do not aow providers to add additiona separate charges, caed baance biing. This protection (that you never pay more than your cost-sharing amount) appies even if we pay the provider ess than the provider charges for a service and even if there is a dispute and we don t pay certain provider charges. Here is how this protection works. If your cost-sharing is a co-payment (a set amount of doars, for exampe, $15.00), then you pay ony that amount for any covered services from a network provider. If your cost-sharing is a coinsurance (a percentage of the tota charges), then you never pay more than that percentage. However, your cost depends on which type of provider you see: If you receive the covered services from a network provider, you pay the coinsurance percentage mutipied by the pan s reimbursement rate (as determined in the contract between the provider and the pan). If you receive the covered services from an out-of-network provider who participates with Medicare, you pay the coinsurance percentage mutipied by the Medicare payment rate for participating providers. (Remember, the pan covers services from out-of-network providers ony in certain situations, such as when you get a referra.) If you receive the covered services from an out-of-network provider who does not participate with Medicare, then you pay the coinsurance percentage mutipied by the Medicare payment rate for non-participating providers. (Remember, the pan covers services from out-of-network providers ony in certain situations, such as when you get a referra.) SECTION 2 Use the Medica Benefits Chart to find out what is covered for you and how much you wi pay

You receive your care from a network provider. In most cases, care you receive from an out-of-network provider wi not be covered. Chapter 3 provides more information about requirements for using network providers and the situations when we wi cover services from an out-of-network provider. You have a primary care provider (a PCP) who is providing and overseeing your care. In most situations, your PCP must give you approva in advance before you can see other providers in the pan s network. This is caed giving you a referra. Chapter 3 provides more information about getting a referra and the situations when you do not need a referra. Some of the services isted in the Medica Benefits Chart are covered ony if your doctor or other network provider gets approva in advance (sometimes caed prior authorization ) from us. Covered services that need approva in advance are marked in the Medica Benefits Chart in bod. Other important things to know about our coverage: Like a Medicare heath pans, we cover everything that Origina Medicare covers. For some of these benefits, you pay more in our pan than you woud in Origina Medicare. For others, you pay ess.

118 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) Chapter 5: Using the pan's coverage for your Part D prescription drugs 116 How do you ask for reimbursement from the pan? If you must use an out-of-network pharmacy, you wi generay have to pay the fu cost (rather than your norma share of the cost) at the time you fi your prescription. You can ask us to reimburse you for our share of the cost. (Chapter 7, Section 2.1 expains how to ask the pan to pay you back.) SECTION 3 Section 3.1 Your drugs need to be on the pan s Drug List The Drug List tes which Part D drugs are covered The pan has a List of Covered Drugs (Formuary). In this Evidence of Coverage, we ca it the Drug List for short. The drugs on this ist are seected by the pan with the hep of a team of doctors and pharmacists. The ist must meet requirements set by Medicare. Medicare has approved the pan s Drug List. The drugs on the Drug List are ony those covered under Medicare Part D (earier in this chapter, Section 1.1 expains about Part D drugs). We wi generay cover a drug on the pan s Drug List as ong as you foow the other coverage rues expained in this chapter and the use of the drug is a medicay accepted indication. A medicay accepted indication is a use of the drug that is either: approved by the Food and Drug Administration. (That is, the Food and Drug Administration has approved the drug for the diagnosis or condition for which it is being prescribed.) -- or -- supported by certain reference books. (These reference books are the American Hospita Formuary Service Drug Information, the DRUGDEX Information System, and the USPDI or its successor.) The Drug List incudes both brand name and generic drugs A generic drug is a prescription drug that has the same active ingredients as the brand name drug. Generay, it works just as we as the brand name drug and usuay costs ess. There are generic drug substitutes avaiabe for many brand name drugs. Our pan aso covers certain over-the-counter drugs. Some over-the-counter drugs are ess expensive than prescription drugs and work just as we. For more information, ca Customer Service (phone numbers are printed on the back of this booket). What is not on the Drug List?

119 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) Chapter 5: Using the pan's coverage for your Part D prescription drugs 117 The pan does not cover a prescription drugs. In some cases, the aw does not aow any Medicare pan to cover certain types of drugs (for more information about this, see Section 7.1 in this chapter). In other cases, we have decided not to incude a particuar drug on the Drug List. Section 3.2 There are five cost-sharing tiers for drugs on the Drug List Every drug on the pan s Drug List is in one of five cost-sharing tiers. In genera, the higher the cost-sharing tier, the higher your cost for the drug: Cost-Sharing Tier 1 (Preferred Generic Drugs) incudes preferred generic drugs. This is the owest cost-sharing tier. Cost-Sharing Tier 2 (Non-Preferred Generic Drugs) incudes non-preferred generic drugs. Cost-Sharing Tier 3 (Preferred Brand Drugs) incudes ony generic & preferred brand drugs. Cost-Sharing Tier 4 (Non-Preferred Brand Drugs) incudes generic & non-preferred brand drugs. Cost-Sharing Tier 5 (Speciaty Tier Drugs) incudes generic & brand drugs. This is the highest cost-sharing tier. To find out which cost-sharing tier your drug is in, ook it up in the pan s Drug List. The amount you pay for drugs in each cost-sharing tier is shown in Chapter 6 (What you pay for your Part D prescription drugs). Section 3.3 How can you find out if a specific drug is on the Drug List? You have three ways to find out: 1. Check the most recent Drug List we sent you in the mai. (Pease note: The Drug List we send incudes information for the covered drugs that are most commony used by our members. However, we cover additiona drugs that are not incuded in the printed Drug List. If one of your drugs is not isted in the Drug List, you shoud visit our website or contact Customer Service to find out if we cover it.) 2. Visit the pan s website ( The Drug List on the website is aways the most current.

120 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) Chapter 5: Using the pan's coverage for your Part D prescription drugs Ca Customer Service to find out if a particuar drug is on the pan s Drug List or to ask for a copy of the ist. (Phone numbers for Customer Service are printed on the back cover of this booket.) SECTION 4 Section 4.1 There are restrictions on coverage for some drugs Why do some drugs have restrictions? For certain prescription drugs, specia rues restrict how and when the pan covers them. A team of doctors and pharmacists deveoped these rues to hep our members use drugs in the most effective ways. These specia rues aso hep contro overa drug costs, which keeps your drug coverage more affordabe. In genera, our rues encourage you to get a drug that works for your medica condition and is safe and effective. Whenever a safe, ower-cost drug wi work just as we medicay as a higher-cost drug, the pan s rues are designed to encourage you and your provider to use that ower-cost option. We aso need to compy with Medicare s rues and reguations for drug coverage and cost-sharing. If there is a restriction for your drug, it usuay means that you or your provider wi have to take extra steps in order for us to cover the drug. If you want us to waive the restriction for you, you wi need to use the coverage decision process and ask us to make an exception. We may or may not agree to waive the restriction for you. (See Chapter 9, Section 6.2 for information about asking for exceptions.) Pease note that sometimes a drug may appear more than once in our drug ist. This is because different restrictions or cost-sharing may appy based on factors such as the strength, amount, or form of the drug prescribed by your heath care provider (for instance, 10 mg versus 100 mg; one per day versus two per day; tabet versus iquid). Section 4.2 What kinds of restrictions? Our pan uses different types of restrictions to hep our members use drugs in the most effective ways. The sections beow te you more about the types of restrictions we use for certain drugs. Restricting brand name drugs when a generic version is avaiabe Generay, a generic drug works the same as a brand name drug and usuay costs ess. In most cases, when a generic version of a brand name drug is avaiabe,

121 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) Chapter 5: Using the pan's coverage for your Part D prescription drugs 119 our network pharmacies wi provide you the generic version. We usuay wi not cover the brand name drug when a generic version is avaiabe. However, if your provider has tod us the medica reason that neither the generic drug nor other covered drugs that treat the same condition wi work for you, then we wi cover the brand name drug. (Your share of the cost may be greater for the brand name drug than for the generic drug.) Getting pan approva in advance For certain drugs, you or your provider need to get approva from the pan before we wi agree to cover the drug for you. This is caed prior authorization. Sometimes the requirement for getting approva in advance heps guide appropriate use of certain drugs. If you do not get this approva, your drug might not be covered by the pan. Trying a different drug first This requirement encourages you to try ess costy but just as effective drugs before the pan covers another drug. For exampe, if Drug A and Drug B treat the same medica condition, the pan may require you to try Drug A first. If Drug A does not work for you, the pan wi then cover Drug B. This requirement to try a different drug first is caed step therapy. Quantity imits For certain drugs, we imit the amount of the drug that you can have. For exampe, the pan might imit how many refis you can get, or how much of a drug you can get each time you fi your prescription. For exampe, if it is normay considered safe to take ony one pi per day for a certain drug, we may imit coverage for your prescription to no more than one pi per day. Section 4.3 Do any of these restrictions appy to your drugs? The pan s Drug List incudes information about the restrictions described above. To find out if any of these restrictions appy to a drug you take or want to take, check the Drug List. For the most up-to-date information, ca Customer Service (phone numbers are printed on the back cover of this booket) or check our website ( If there is a restriction for your drug, it usuay means that you or your provider wi have to take extra steps in order for us to cover the drug. If there is a restriction on the drug you want to take, you shoud contact Customer Service to earn

122 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) Chapter 5: Using the pan's coverage for your Part D prescription drugs 120 what you or your provider woud need to do to get coverage for the drug. If you want us to waive the restriction for you, you wi need to use the coverage decision process and ask us to make an exception. We may or may not agree to waive the restriction for you. (See Chapter 9, Section 6.2 for information about asking for exceptions.) SECTION 5 Section 5.1 What if one of your drugs is not covered in the way you d ike it to be covered? There are things you can do if your drug is not covered in the way you d ike it to be covered Suppose there is a prescription drug you are currenty taking, or one that you and your provider think you shoud be taking. We hope that your drug coverage wi work we for you, but it s possibe that you might have a probem. For exampe: What if the drug you want to take is not covered by the pan? For exampe, the drug might not be covered at a. Or maybe a generic version of the drug is covered but the brand name version you want to take is not covered. What if the drug is covered, but there are extra rues or restrictions on coverage for that drug? As expained in Section 4, some of the drugs covered by the pan have extra rues to restrict their use. For exampe, you might be required to try a different drug first, to see if it wi work, before the drug you want to take wi be covered for you. Or there might be imits on what amount of the drug (number of pis, etc.) is covered during a particuar time period. In some cases, you may want us to waive the restriction for you. For exampe, you might want us to cover a certain drug for you without having to try other drugs first. Or you may want us to cover more of a drug (number of pis, etc.) than we normay wi cover. What if the drug is covered, but it is in a cost-sharing tier that makes your cost-sharing more expensive than you think it shoud be? The pan puts each covered drug into one of five different cost-sharing tiers. How much you pay for your prescription depends in part on which cost-sharing tier your drug is in. There are things you can do if your drug is not covered in the way that you d ike it to be covered. Your options depend on what type of probem you have: If your drug is not on the Drug List or if your drug is restricted, go to Section 5.2 to earn what you can do. If your drug is in a cost-sharing tier that makes your cost more expensive than you think it shoud be, go to Section 5.3 to earn what you can do.

123 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) Chapter 5: Using the pan's coverage for your Part D prescription drugs 121 Section 5.2 What can you do if your drug is not on the Drug List or if the drug is restricted in some way? If your drug is not on the Drug List or is restricted, here are things you can do: You may be abe to get a temporary suppy of the drug (ony members in certain situations can get a temporary suppy). This wi give you and your provider time to change to another drug or to fie a request to have the drug covered. You can change to another drug. You can request an exception and ask the pan to cover the drug or remove restrictions from the drug. You may be abe to get a temporary suppy Under certain circumstances, the pan can offer a temporary suppy of a drug to you when your drug is not on the Drug List or when it is restricted in some way. Doing this gives you time to tak with your provider about the change in coverage and figure out what to do. To be eigibe for a temporary suppy, you must meet the two requirements beow: 1. The change to your drug coverage must be one of the foowing types of changes: 2. You must be in one of the situations described beow: For those members who were in the pan ast year and aren t in a ong-term care (LTC) faciity: We wi cover a temporary suppy of your drug during the first 90-days of the caendar year. This temporary suppy wi be for a maximum of 30-days. If your prescription is written for fewer days, we aow mutipe fis to provide up to a maximum of a 30-day suppy of medication. The prescription must be fied at a network pharmacy. The drug you have been taking is no onger on the pan s Drug List. -- or -- the drug you have been taking is now restricted in some way (Section 4 in this chapter tes about restrictions). For those members who are new to the pan and aren't in a ong-term care (LTC) faciity:

124 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) Chapter 5: Using the pan's coverage for your Part D prescription drugs 122 We wi cover a temporary suppy of your drug during the first 93-days of your membership in the pan. This temporary suppy wi be for a maximum of 31-days. If your prescription is written for fewer days, we aow mutipe fis to provide up to a maximum of a 31-day suppy of medication. The prescription must be fied at a network pharmacy. For those members who were in the pan ast year and reside in a ong-term care (LTC) faciity: We wi cover a temporary suppy of your drug during the first 98 days of the caendar year. The tota suppy wi be for a maximum of 98 days. If your prescription is written for fewer days, we wi aow mutipe fis to provide up to a maximum of 98 days of medication. (Pease note that the ong-term care pharmacy may provide the drug in smaer amounts at a time to prevent waste.) For those members who are new to the pan and reside in a ong-term care (LTC) faciity: We wi cover a temporary suppy of your drug during the first 98-days of your membership in the pan. The tota suppy wi be for a maximum of 98-day suppy. If your prescription is written for fewer days, we aow mutipe fis to provide up to a maximum of a 98-day suppy of medication. (Pease note that the ong-term care pharmacy may provide the drug in smaer amounts at a time to prevent waste.) For those members who have been in the pan for more than 98-days and reside in a ong-term (LTC) care faciity and need a suppy right away: We wi cover one 31-day suppy, or ess if your prescription is written for fewer days. This is in addition to the above ong-term care transition suppy. For those current members who experience a eve of care change: There are times when a member may experience an unpanned eve of care change transition (such as being discharged or admitted to a ong-term care faciity, discharged or admitted to hospitas, nursing faciity ski eve changes, etc.). In these instances, we wi provide an emergency suppy of non-formuary medications (incuding Part D medications that are on the formuary, but require prior authorization or step therapy under our utiization management rues). This emergency suppy wi be for at east 3 days of medication, uness the prescription is written for fewer days. The emergency suppy is to ensure that members receive their medications whie an exception has been requested through the pan. To ask for a temporary suppy, ca Customer Service (phone numbers are printed on the back cover of this booket).

125 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) Chapter 5: Using the pan's coverage for your Part D prescription drugs 123 During the time when you are getting a temporary suppy of a drug, you shoud tak with your provider to decide what to do when your temporary suppy runs out. You can either switch to a different drug covered by the pan or ask the pan to make an exception for you and cover your current drug. The sections beow te you more about these options. You can change to another drug Start by taking with your provider. Perhaps there is a different drug covered by the pan that might work just as we for you. You can ca Customer Service to ask for a ist of covered drugs that treat the same medica condition. This ist can hep your provider find a covered drug that might work for you. (Phone numbers for Customer Service are printed on the back cover of this booket.) You can ask for an exception You and your provider can ask the pan to make an exception for you and cover the drug in the way you woud ike it to be covered. If your provider says that you have medica reasons that justify asking us for an exception, your provider can hep you request an exception to the rue. For exampe, you can ask the pan to cover a drug even though it is not on the pan s Drug List. Or you can ask the pan to make an exception and cover the drug without restrictions. If you are a current member and a drug you are taking wi be removed from the formuary or restricted in some way for next year, we wi aow you to request a formuary exception in advance for next year. We wi te you about any change in the coverage for your drug for next year. You can ask for an exception before next year and we wi give you an answer within 72 hours after we receive your request (or your prescriber s supporting statement). If we approve your request, we wi authorize the coverage before the change takes effect. If you and your provider want to ask for an exception, Chapter 9, Section 6.4 tes what to do. It expains the procedures and deadines that have been set by Medicare to make sure your request is handed prompty and fairy. Section 5.3 What can you do if your drug is in a cost-sharing tier you think is too high? If your drug is in a cost-sharing tier you think is too high, here are things you can do: You can change to another drug

126 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) Chapter 5: Using the pan's coverage for your Part D prescription drugs 124 If your drug is in a cost-sharing tier you think is too high, start by taking with your provider. Perhaps there is a different drug in a ower cost-sharing tier that might work just as we for you. You can ca Customer Service to ask for a ist of covered drugs that treat the same medica condition. This ist can hep your provider to find a covered drug that might work for you. (Phone numbers for Customer Service are printed on the back cover of this booket.) You can ask for an exception For drugs in Tier 2 (Non-Preferred Generic Drugs) and Tier 4 (Non-Preferred Brand Drugs), you and your provider can ask the pan to make an exception in the cost-sharing tier for the drug so that you pay ess for it. If your provider says that you have medica reasons that justify asking us for an exception, your provider can hep you request an exception to the rue. If you and your provider want to ask for an exception, Chapter 9, Section 6.4 tes what to do. It expains the procedures and deadines that have been set by Medicare to make sure your request is handed prompty and fairy. Drugs in some of our cost-sharing tiers are not eigibe for this type of exception. We do not ower the cost-sharing amount for drugs in Tier 1 (Preferred Generic Drugs), Tier 3 (Preferred Brand Drugs) or Tier 5 (Speciaty Tier Drugs). SECTION 6 Section 6.1 What if your coverage changes for one of your drugs? The Drug List can change during the year Most of the changes in drug coverage happen at the beginning of each year (January 1). However, during the year, the pan might make many kinds of changes to the Drug List. For exampe, the pan might: Add or remove drugs from the Drug List. New drugs become avaiabe, incuding new generic drugs. Perhaps the government has given approva to a new use for an existing drug. Sometimes, a drug gets recaed and we decide not to cover it. Or we might remove a drug from the ist because it has been found to be ineffective. Move a drug to a higher or ower cost-sharing tier. Add or remove a restriction on coverage for a drug (for more information about restrictions to coverage, see Section 4 in this chapter). Repace a brand name drug with a generic drug.

127 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) Chapter 5: Using the pan's coverage for your Part D prescription drugs 125 In amost a cases, we must get approva from Medicare for changes we make to the pan s Drug List. Section 6.2 What happens if coverage changes for a drug you are taking? How wi you find out if your drug s coverage has been changed? If there is a change to coverage for a drug you are taking, the pan wi send you a notice to te you. Normay, we wi et you know at east 60 days ahead of time. Once in a whie, a drug is suddeny recaed because it s been found to be unsafe or for other reasons. If this happens, the pan wi immediatey remove the drug from the Drug List. We wi et you know of this change right away. Your provider wi aso know about this change, and can work with you to find another drug for your condition. Do changes to your drug coverage affect you right away? If any of the foowing types of changes affect a drug you are taking, the change wi not affect you unti January 1 of the next year if you stay in the pan: If we move your drug into a higher cost-sharing tier. If we put a new restriction on your use of the drug. If we remove your drug from the Drug List, but not because of a sudden reca or because a new generic drug has repaced it. If any of these changes happens for a drug you are taking, then the change won t affect your use or what you pay as your share of the cost unti January 1 of the next year. Unti that date, you probaby won t see any increase in your payments or any added restriction to your use of the drug. However, on January 1 of the next year, the changes wi affect you. In some cases, you wi be affected by the coverage change before January 1: If a brand name drug you are taking is repaced by a new generic drug, the pan must give you at east 60 days notice or give you a 60-day refi of your brand name drug at a network pharmacy. During this 60-day period, you shoud be working with your provider to switch to the generic or to a different drug that we cover. Or you and your provider can ask the pan to make an exception and continue to cover the brand name drug for you. For information on how to

Again, if a drug is suddeny recaed because it s been found to be unsafe or for other reasons, the pan wi immediatey remove the drug from the Drug List. We wi et you know of this change right away. Your provider wi aso know about this change, and can work with you to find another drug for your condition. SECTION 7 Section 7.1 What types of drugs are not covered by the pan? Types of drugs we do not cover This section tes you what kinds of prescription drugs are excuded. This means Medicare does not pay for these drugs. If you get drugs that are excuded, you must pay for them yoursef. We won t pay for the drugs that are isted in this section. The ony exception: If the requested drug is found upon appea to be a drug that is not excuded under Part D and we shoud have paid for or covered it because of your specific situation. (For information about appeaing a decision we have made to not cover a drug, go to Chapter 9, Section 6.5 in this booket.) Here are three genera rues about drugs that Medicare drug pans wi not cover under Part D: Our pan s Part D drug coverage cannot cover a drug that woud be covered under Medicare Part A or Part B. Our pan cannot cover a drug purchased outside the United States and its territories. Our pan usuay cannot cover off-abe use. Off-abe use is any use of the drug other than those indicated on a drug s abe as approved by the Food and Drug Administration. Generay, coverage for off-abe use is aowed ony when the use is supported by certain reference books. These reference books are the American Hospita Formuary Service Drug Information, the DRUGDEX Information System, and the USPDI or its successor. If the use is not supported by any of these reference books, then our pan cannot cover its off-abe use. Aso, by aw, these categories of drugs are not covered by Medicare drug pans:

129 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) Chapter 5: Using the pan's coverage for your Part D prescription drugs 127 Non-prescription drugs (aso caed over-the-counter drugs) Drugs when used to promote fertiity Drugs when used for the reief of cough or cod symptoms Drugs when used for cosmetic purposes or to promote hair growth Prescription vitamins and minera products, except prenata vitamins and fuoride preparations Drugs when used for the treatment of sexua or erectie dysfunction, such as Viagra, Ciais, Levitra, and Caverject Drugs when used for treatment of anorexia, weight oss, or weight gain Outpatient drugs for which the manufacturer seeks to require that associated tests or monitoring services be purchased excusivey from the manufacturer as a condition of sae If you receive Extra Hep paying for your drugs, your state Medicaid program may cover some prescription drugs not normay covered in a Medicare drug pan.

SECTION 8 Section 8.1 Show your pan membership card when you fi a prescription Show your membership card To fi your prescription, show your pan membership card at the network pharmacy you choose. When you show your pan membership card, the network pharmacy wi automaticay bi the pan for our share of your covered prescription drug cost. You wi need to pay the pharmacy your share of the cost when you pick up your prescription. Section 8.2 What if you don t have your membership card with you? If you don t have your pan membership card with you when you fi your prescription, ask the pharmacy to ca the pan to get the necessary information. If the pharmacy is not abe to get the necessary information, you may have to pay the fu cost of the prescription when you pick it up. (You can then ask us to reimburse you for our share.

See the previous parts of this section that te about the rues for getting drug coverage. Chapter 6 (What you pay for your Part D prescription drugs) gives more information about drug coverage and what you pay. Pease Note: When you enter, ive in, or eave a skied nursing faciity, you are entited to a Specia Enroment Period. During this time period, you can switch pans or change your coverage. (Chapter 10, Ending your membership in the pan, tes when you can eave our pan and join a different Medicare pan.) Section 9.2 What if you re a resident in a ong-term care (LTC) faciity? Usuay, a ong-term care faciity (such as a nursing home) has its own pharmacy, or a pharmacy that suppies drugs for a of its residents. If you are a resident of a ong-term care faciity, you may get your prescription drugs through the faciity s pharmacy as ong as it is part of our network. Check your Provider & Pharmacy Directory to find out if your ong-term care faciity s pharmacy is part of our network. If it isn t, or if you need more information, pease contact Customer Service (phone numbers are printed on the back cover of this booket). What if you re a resident in a ong-term care (LTC) faciity and become a new member of the pan? If you need a drug that is not on our Drug List or is restricted in some way, the pan wi cover a temporary suppy of your drug during the first 98 days of your membership. The tota suppy wi be for a maximum of 98 days, or ess if your prescription is written for fewer days.

During the time when you are getting a temporary suppy of a drug, you shoud tak with your provider to decide what to do when your temporary suppy runs out. Perhaps there is a different drug covered by the pan that might work just as we for you. Or you and your provider can ask the pan to make an exception for you and cover the drug in the way you woud ike it to be covered. If you and your provider want to ask for an exception, Chapter 9, Section 6.4 tes what to do. Section 9.3 What if you re aso getting drug coverage from an empoyer or retiree group pan? Do you currenty have other prescription drug coverage through your (or your spouse s) empoyer or retiree group? If so, pease contact that group s benefits administrator. He or she can hep you determine how your current prescription drug coverage wi work with our pan. In genera, if you are currenty empoyed, the prescription drug coverage you get from us wi be secondary to your empoyer or retiree group coverage. That means your group coverage woud pay first. Specia note about creditabe coverage : Each year your empoyer or retiree group shoud send you a notice that tes if your prescription drug coverage for the next caendar year is creditabe and the choices you have for drug coverage. If the coverage from the group pan is creditabe, it means that the pan has drug coverage that is expected to pay, on average, at east as much as Medicare s standard prescription drug coverage. Keep these notices about creditabe coverage, because you may need them ater. If you enro in a Medicare pan that incudes Part D drug coverage, you may need these notices to show that you have maintained creditabe coverage. If you didn t get a notice about creditabe coverage from your empoyer or retiree group pan, you can get a copy from your empoyer or retiree pan s benefits administrator or the empoyer or union.

132 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) Chapter 5: Using the pan's coverage for your Part D prescription drugs 130 Section 9.4 What if you re in Medicare-certified hospice?

If you are enroed in Medicare hospice and require an anti-nausea, axative, pain medication or antianxiety drug that is not covered by your hospice because it is unreated to your termina iness and reated conditions, our pan must receive notification from either the prescriber or your hospice provider that the drug is unreated before our pan can cover the drug. To prevent deays in receiving any unreated drugs that shoud be covered by our pan, you can ask your hospice provider or prescriber to make sure we have the notification that the drug is unreated before you ask a pharmacy to fi your prescription. In the event you either revoke your hospice eection or are discharged from hospice our pan shoud cover a your drugs. To prevent any deays at a pharmacy when your Medicare hospice benefit ends, you shoud bring documentation to the pharmacy to verify your revocation or discharge. See the previous parts of this section that te about the rues for getting drug coverage under Part D Chapter 6 (What you pay for your Part D prescription drugs) gives more information about drug coverage and what you pay. SECTION 10 Section 10.1 Programs on drug safety and managing medications Programs to hep members use drugs safey We conduct drug use reviews for our members to hep make sure that they are getting safe and appropriate care.

However your doctor can prescribe ess than a month s suppy of drugs. There may be times when you want to ask your doctor about prescribing ess than a month s suppy of a drug (for exampe, when you are trying a medication for the first time that is known to have serious side effects). If your doctor agrees, you wi not have to pay for the fu month s suppy for certain drugs.

145 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) Chapter 6: What you pay for your Part D prescription drugs 143 The amount you pay when you get ess than a fu month s suppy wi depend on whether you are responsibe for paying coinsurance (a percentage of the tota cost) or a co-payment (a fat doar amount). If you are responsibe for coinsurance, you pay a percentage of the tota cost of the drug. You pay the same percentage regardess of whether the prescription is for a fu month s suppy or for fewer days. However, because the entire drug cost wi be ower if you get ess than a fu month s suppy, the amount you pay wi be ess. If you are responsibe for a co-payment for the drug, your co-pay wi be based on the number of days of the drug that you receive. We wi cacuate the amount you pay per day for your drug (the daiy cost-sharing rate ) and mutipy it by the number of days of the drug you receive. Here s an exampe: Let s say the co-pay for your drug for a fu month s suppy (a 30-day suppy) is $30. This means that the amount you pay per day for your drug is $1. If you receive a 7 days suppy of the drug, your payment wi be $1 per day mutipied by 7 days, for a tota payment of $7. You shoud not have to pay more per day just because you begin with ess than a month s suppy. Let s go back to the exampe above. Let s say you and your doctor agree that the drug is working we and that you shoud continue taking the drug after your 7 days suppy runs out. If you receive a second prescription for the rest of the month, or 23 days more of the drug, you wi sti pay $1 per day, or $23. Your tota cost for the month wi be $7 for your first prescription and $23 for your second prescription, for a tota of $30 the same as your co-pay woud be for a fu month s suppy. Daiy cost-sharing aows you to make sure a drug works for you before you have to pay for an entire month s suppy. Section 5.4 A tabe that shows your costs for a ong-term (uptoa90-day) suppy of a drug For some drugs, you can get a ong-term suppy (aso caed an extended suppy ) when you fi your prescription. A ong-term suppy is up to a 90-day suppy. (For detais on where and how to get a ong-term suppy of a drug, see Chapter 5, Section 2.4) The tabe beow shows what you pay when you get a ong-term (up to a 90-day) suppy of a drug.

Your tota drug cost is based on adding together what you have paid and what any Part D pan has paid: What you have paid for a the covered drugs you have gotten since you started with your first drug purchase of the year. (See Section 6.2 for more information about how Medicare cacuates your out-of-pocket costs.) This incudes: The tota you paid as your share of the cost for your drugs during the Initia Coverage Stage. What the pan has paid as its share of the cost for your drugs during the Initia Coverage Stage. (If you were enroed in a different Part D pan at any time during 2015, the amount that pan paid during the Initia Coverage Stage aso counts toward your tota drug costs.) The Part D Expanation of Benefits (Part D EOB) that we send to you wi hep you keep track of how much you and the pan, as we as any third parties, have spent on your behaf during the year. Many peope do not reach the $2,960 imit in a year. We wi et you know if you reach this $2,960 amount. If you do reach this amount, you wi eave the Initia Coverage Stage and move on to the Coverage Gap Stage. SECTION 6 Section 6.1 During the Coverage Gap Stage, you receive a discount on brand name drugs and pay no more than 65% of the costs of generic drugs You stay in the Coverage Gap Stage unti your out-of-pocket costs reach $4,700 When you are in the Coverage Gap Stage, the Medicare Coverage Gap Discount Program provides manufacturer discounts on brand name drugs. You pay 45% of the negotiated price (excuding the dispensing fee and vaccine administration fee, if any) for brand name drugs. Both the amount you pay and the amount discounted by the manufacturer count toward your out-of-pocket costs as if you had paid them and moves you through the coverage gap.

148 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) Chapter 6: What you pay for your Part D prescription drugs 146 You aso receive some coverage for generic drugs. You pay no more than 65% of the cost for generic drugs and the pan pays the rest. For generic drugs, the amount paid by the pan (35%) does not count toward your out-of-pocket costs. Ony the amount you pay counts and moves you through the coverage gap. You continue paying the discounted price for brand name drugs and no more than 65% of the costs of generic drugs unti your yeary out-of-pocket payments reach a maximum amount that Medicare has set. In 2015, that amount is $4,700. Medicare has rues about what counts and what does not count as your out-of-pocket costs. When you reach an out-of-pocket imit of $4,700, you eave the Coverage Gap Stage and move on to the Catastrophic Coverage Stage. Section 6.2 How Medicare cacuates your out-of-pocket costs for prescription drugs Here are Medicare s rues that we must foow when we keep track of your out-of-pocket costs for your drugs. These payments are incuded in your out-of-pocket costs When you add up your out-of-pocket costs, you can incude the payments isted beow (as ong as they are for Part D covered drugs and you foowed the rues for drug coverage that are expained in Chapter 5 of this booket): The amount you pay for drugs when you are in any of the foowing drug payment stages: The Initia Coverage Stage. The Coverage Gap Stage. Any payments you made during this caendar year as a member of a different Medicare prescription drug pan before you joined our pan. It matters who pays: If you make these payments yoursef, they are incuded in your out-of-pocket costs. These payments are aso incuded if they are made on your behaf by certain other individuas or organizations. This incudes payments for your drugs

149 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) Chapter 6: What you pay for your Part D prescription drugs 147 made by a friend or reative, by most charities, by AIDS drug assistance programs, by a State Pharmaceutica Assistance Program that is quaified by Medicare, or by the Indian Heath Service. Payments made by Medicare s Extra Hep Program are aso incuded. Some of the payments made by the Medicare Coverage Gap Discount Program are incuded. The amount the manufacturer pays for your brand name drugs is incuded. But the amount the pan pays for your generic drugs is not incuded. Moving on to the Catastrophic Coverage Stage: When you (or those paying on your behaf) have spent a tota of $4,700 in out-of-pocket costs within the caendar year, you wi move from the Coverage Gap Stage to the Catastrophic Coverage Stage. These payments are not incuded in your out-of-pocket costs When you add up your out-of-pocket costs, you are not aowed to incude any of these types of payments for prescription drugs: The amount you pay for your monthy premium. Drugs you buy outside the United States and its territories. Drugs that are not covered by our pan. Drugs you get at an out-of-network pharmacy that do not meet the pan s requirements for out-of-network coverage. Non-Part D drugs, incuding prescription drugs covered by Part A or Part B and other drugs excuded from coverage by Medicare. Payments you make toward prescription drugs not normay covered in a Medicare Prescription Drug Pan Payments made by the pan for your brand or generic drugs whie in the Coverage Gap. Payments for your drugs that are made by group heath pans incuding empoyer heath pans. Payments for your drugs that are made by certain insurance pans and government-funded heath programs such as TRICARE and the Veteran s Administration. Payments for your drugs made by a third-party with a ega obigation to pay for prescription costs (for exampe, Worker s Compensation).

150 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) Chapter 6: What you pay for your Part D prescription drugs 148 Reminder: If any other organization such as the ones isted above pays part or a of your out-of-pocket costs for drugs, you are required to te our pan. Ca Customer Service to et us know (phone numbers are printed on the back cover of this booket). How can you keep track of your out-of-pocket tota? We wi hep you. The Part D Expanation of Benefits (Part D EOB) report we send to you incudes the current amount of your out-of-pocket costs (Section 3 in this chapter tes about this report). When you reach a tota of $4,700 in out-of-pocket costs for the year, this report wi te you that you have eft the Coverage Gap Stage and have moved on to the Catastrophic Coverage Stage. Make sure we have the information we need. Section 3.2 tes what you can do to hep make sure that our records of what you have spent are compete and up to date.

Once you are in the Catastrophic Coverage Stage, you wi stay in this payment stage unti the end of the caendar year. During this stage, the pan wi pay most of the cost for your drugs. Your share of the cost for a covered drug wi be either coinsurance or a co-payment, whichever is the arger amount: either coinsurance of 5% of the cost of the drug or $2.65 for a generic drug or a drug that is treated ike a generic and $6.60 for a other drugs. Our pan pays the rest of the cost. SECTION 8 What you pay for vaccinations covered by Part D depends on how and where you get them

151 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) Chapter 6: What you pay for your Part D prescription drugs 149 Section 8.1 Our pan has separate coverage for the Part D vaccine medication itsef and for the cost of giving you the vaccination shot Our pan provides coverage of a number of Part D vaccines. We aso cover vaccines that are considered medica benefits. You can find out about coverage of these vaccines by going to the Medica Benefits Chart in Chapter 4, Section 2.1. There are two parts to our coverage of Part D vaccinations: The first part of coverage is the cost of the vaccine medication itsef. The vaccine is a prescription medication. The second part of coverage is for the cost of giving you the vaccination shot. (This is sometimes caed the administration of the vaccine.) What do you pay for a Part D vaccination? What you pay for a Part D vaccination depends on three things: 1. The type of vaccine (what you are being vaccinated for). Some vaccines are considered medica benefits. You can find out about your coverage of these vaccines by going to Chapter 4, Medica Benefits Chart (what is covered and what you pay). Other vaccines are considered Part D drugs. You can find these vaccines isted in the pan s List of Covered Drugs (Formuary). 2. Where you get the vaccine medication. 3. Who gives you the vaccination shot. What you pay at the time you get the Part D vaccination can vary depending on the circumstances. For exampe: Sometimes when you get your vaccination shot, you wi have to pay the entire cost for both the vaccine medication and for getting the vaccination shot. You can ask our pan to pay you back for our share of the cost.

152 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) Chapter 6: What you pay for your Part D prescription drugs 150 Other times, when you get the vaccine medication or the vaccination shot, you wi pay ony your share of the cost. To show how this works, here are three common ways you might get a Part D vaccination shot. Remember you are responsibe for a of the costs associated with vaccines (incuding their administration) during the Coverage Gap Stage of your benefit. Situation 1: You buy the Part D vaccine at the pharmacy and you get your vaccination shot at the network pharmacy. (Whether you have this choice depends on where you ive. Some states do not aow pharmacies to administer a vaccination.) You wi have to pay the pharmacy the amount of your coinsurance or co-payment for the vaccine and the cost of giving you the vaccination shot. Our pan wi pay the remainder of the costs. Situation 2: You get the Part D vaccination at your doctor s office. When you get the vaccination, you wi pay for the entire cost of the vaccine and its administration. You can then ask our pan to pay our share of the cost by using the procedures that are described in Chapter 7 of this booket (Asking us to pay our share of a bi you have received for covered medica services or drugs). You wi be reimbursed the amount you paid ess your norma coinsurance or co-payment for the vaccine (incuding administration) ess any difference between the amount the doctor charges and what we normay pay. (If you get Extra Hep, we wi reimburse you for this difference.) Situation 3: You buy the Part D vaccine at your pharmacy, and then take it to your doctor s office where they give you the vaccination shot. You wi have to pay the pharmacy the amount of your coinsurance or co-payment for the vaccine itsef. When your doctor gives you the vaccination shot, you wi pay the entire cost for this service. You can then ask our pan to

153 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) Chapter 6: What you pay for your Part D prescription drugs 151 pay our share of the cost by using the procedures described in Chapter 7 of this booket. You wi be reimbursed the amount charged by the doctor for administering the vaccine ess any difference between the amount the doctor charges and what we normay pay. (If you get Extra Hep, we wi reimburse you for this difference.) Section 8.2 You may want to ca us at Customer Service before you get a vaccination The rues for coverage of vaccinations are compicated. We are here to hep. We recommend that you ca us first at Customer Service whenever you are panning to get a vaccination. (Phone numbers for Customer Service are printed on the back cover of this booket). We can te you about how your vaccination is covered by our pan and expain your share of the cost. We can te you how to keep your own cost down by using providers and pharmacies in our network. If you are not abe to use a network provider and pharmacy, we can te you what you need to do to get payment from us for our share of the cost. SECTION 9 Section 9.1 Do you have to pay the Part D ate enroment penaty? What is the Part D ate enroment penaty? Note: If you receive Extra Hep from Medicare to pay for your prescription drugs, you wi not pay a ate enroment penaty. The ate enroment penaty is an amount that is added to you Part D premium. You may owe a ate enroment penaty if at any time after your initia enroment period is over, there is a period of 63 days or more in a row when you did not have Part D or other creditabe prescription drug coverage. Creditabe prescription drug coverage is coverage that meets Medicare s minimum standards since it is expected to pay, on average, at east as much as Medicare s standard prescription drug coverage. The amount of the penaty depends on how ong you waited to enro in a creditabe prescription drug coverage pan any time after the end of your initia enroment period

154 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) Chapter 6: What you pay for your Part D prescription drugs 152 or how many fu caendar months you went without creditabe prescription drug coverage. You wi have to pay this penaty for as ong as you have Part D Coverage. The penaty is added to your monthy premium. When you first enro in our pan, we et you know the amount of the penaty. Your ate enroment penaty is considered part of your pan premium. Section 9.2 How much is the Part D ate enroment penaty? Medicare determines the amount of the penaty. Here is how it works: First count the number of fu months that you deayed enroing in a Medicare drug pan, after you were eigibe to enro. Or count the number of fu months in which you did not have creditabe prescription drug coverage, if the break in coverage was 63 days or more. The penaty is 1% for every month that you didn t have creditabe coverage. For our exampe, if you go 14 months without coverage, the penaty wi be 14%. Then Medicare determines the amount of the average monthy premium for Medicare drug pans in the nation from the previous year. For 2014, this average premium amount was $ This amount may change for To cacuate your monthy penaty, you mutipy the penaty percentage and the average monthy premium and then round it to the nearest 10 cents. In the exampe here it woud be 14% times $32.42, which equas $ This rounds to $4.50. This amount woud be added to the monthy premium for someone with a ate enroment penaty. There are three important things to note about this monthy ate-enroment penaty: First, the penaty may change each year, because the average monthy premium can change each year. If the nationa average premium (as determined by Medicare) increases, your penaty wi increase. Second, you wi continue to pay a penaty every month for as ong as you are enroed in a pan that has Medicare Part D drug benefits. Third, if you are under 65 and currenty receiving Medicare benefits, the ate enroment penaty wi reset when you turn 65. After age 65, your ate enroment penaty wi be based ony on the months that you don t have coverage after your initia enroment period for aging into Medicare.

155 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) Chapter 6: What you pay for your Part D prescription drugs 153 Section 9.3 In some situations, you can enro ate and not have to pay the penaty Even if you have deayed enroing in a pan offering Medicare Part D coverage when you were first eigibe, sometimes you do not have to pay the ate enroment penaty. You wi not have to pay a penaty for ate enroment if you are in any of these situations: If you aready have prescription drug coverage that is expected to pay, on average, at east as much as Medicare s standard prescription drug coverage. Medicare cas this creditabe drug coverage. Pease note: Creditabe coverage coud incude drug coverage from a former empoyer or union, TRICARE, or the Department of Veterans Affairs. Your insurer or your human resources department wi te you each year if your drug coverage is creditabe coverage. This information may be sent to you in a etter or incuded in a newsetter from the pan. Keep this information, because you may need it if you join a Medicare drug pan ater. u Pease note: If you receive a certificate of creditabe coverage when your heath coverage ends, it may not mean your prescription drug coverage was creditabe. The notice must state that you had creditabe prescription drug coverage that expected to pay as much as Medicare s standard prescription drug pan pays. The foowing are not creditabe prescription drug coverage: prescription drug discount cards, free cinics, and drug discount websites. For additiona information about creditabe coverage, pease ook in your Medicare & You 2015 Handbook or ca Medicare at MEDICARE ( ). TTY users ca You can ca these numbers for free, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. If you were without creditabe coverage, but you were without it for ess than 63 days in a row.

156 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) Chapter 6: What you pay for your Part D prescription drugs 154 If you disagree about your ate enroment penaty, you or your representative can ask for a review of the decision about your ate enroment penaty. Generay, you must request this review within 60 days from the date on the etter you receive stating you have to pay a ate enroment penaty. Ca Customer Service to find out more about how to do this (phone numbers are printed on the back cover of this booket). SECTION 10 Section 10.1 Do you have to pay an extra Part D amount because of your income? Who pays an extra Part D amount because of income? Most peope pay a standard monthy Part D premium. However, some peope pay an extra amount because of their yeary income. If your income is $85,000 or above for an individua (or married individuas fiing separatey) or $170,000 or above for married coupes, you must pay an extra amount directy to the government for your Medicare Part D coverage. If you have to pay an extra amount, Socia Security, not your Medicare pan, wi send you a etter teing you what that extra amount wi be and how to pay it. The extra amount wi be withhed from your Socia Security, Rairoad Retirement Board, or Office of Personne Management benefit check, no matter how you usuay pay your pan premium, uness your monthy benefit isn t enough to cover the extra amount owed. If your benefit check isn t enough to cover the extra amount, you wi get a bi from Medicare. You must pay the extra amount to the government. It cannot be paid with your monthy pan premium. Section 10.2 How much is the extra Part D amount? If your modified adjusted gross income (MAGI) as reported on your IRS tax return is above a certain amount, you wi pay an extra amount in addition to your monthy pan premium.

160 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) 158 Chapter 7: Asking us to pay our share of a bi you have received for covered medica services or drugs SECTION 1 Section 1.1 Situations in which you shoud ask us to pay our share of the cost of your covered services or drugs If you pay our pan s share of the cost of your covered services or drugs, or if you receive a bi, you can ask us for payment Sometimes when you get medica care or a prescription drug, you may need to pay the fu cost right away. Other times, you may find that you have paid more than you expected under the coverage rues of the pan. In either case, you can ask our pan to pay you back (paying you back is often caed reimbursing you). It is your right to be paid back by our pan whenever you ve paid more than your share of the cost for medica services or drugs that are covered by our pan. There may aso be times when you get a bi from a provider for the fu cost of medica care you have received. In many cases, you shoud send this bi to us instead of paying it. We wi ook at the bi and decide whether the services shoud be covered. If we decide they shoud be covered, we wi pay the provider directy. Here are exampes of situations in which you may need to ask our pan to pay you back or to pay a bi you have received. 1. When you ve received emergency or urgenty needed medica care from a provider who is not in our pan s network You can receive emergency services from any provider, whether or not the provider is a part of our network. When you receive emergency or urgenty needed care from a provider who is not part of our network, you are ony responsibe for paying your share of the cost, not for the entire cost. You shoud ask the provider to bi the pan for our share of the cost. If you pay the entire amount yoursef at the time you receive the care, you need to ask us to pay you back for our share of the cost. Send us the bi, aong with documentation of any payments you have made. At times you may get a bi from the provider asking for payment that you think you do not owe. Send us this bi, aong with documentation of any payments you have aready made. If the provider is owed anything, we wi pay the provider directy. If you have aready paid more than your share of the cost of the service, we wi determine how much you are owed and pay you back for our share of the cost.

161 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) 159 Chapter 7: Asking us to pay our share of a bi you have received for covered medica services or drugs 2. When a network provider sends you a bi you think you shoud not pay Network providers shoud aways bi the pan directy, and ask you ony for your share of the cost. But sometimes they make mistakes, and ask you to pay more than your share. You ony have to pay your cost-sharing amount when you get services covered by our pan.

164 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) 162 Chapter 7: Asking us to pay our share of a bi you have received for covered medica services or drugs our share of the cost to you. If you have not paid for the service or drug yet, we wi mai the payment directy to the provider. (Chapter 3 expains the rues you need to foow for getting your medica services covered. Chapter 5 expains the rues you need to foow for getting your Part D prescription drugs covered.) If we decide that the medica care or drug is not covered, or you did not foow a the rues, we wi not pay for our share of the cost. Instead, we wi send you a etter that expains the reasons why we are not sending the payment you have requested and your rights to appea that decision. Section 3.2 If we te you that we wi not pay for a or part of the medica care or drug, you can make an appea If you think we have made a mistake in turning down your request for payment or you don't agree with the amount we are paying, you can make an appea. If you make an appea, it means you are asking us to change the decision we made when we turned down your request for payment. For the detais on how to make this appea, go to Chapter 9 of this booket (What to do if you have a probem or compaint (coverage decisions, appeas, compaints)). The appeas process is a forma process with detaied procedures and important deadines. If making an appea is new to you, you wi find it hepfu to start by reading Section 4 of Chapter 9. Section 4 is an introductory section that expains the process for coverage decisions and appeas and gives definitions of terms such as appea. Then after you have read Section 4, you can go to the section in Chapter 9 that tes what to do for your situation: If you want to make an appea about getting paid back for a medica service, go to Section 5.3 in Chapter 9. If you want to make an appea about getting paid back for a drug, go to Section 6.5 of Chapter 9. SECTION 4 Section 4.1 Other situations in which you shoud save your receipts and send copies to us In some cases, you shoud send copies of your receipts to us to hep us track your out-of-pocket drug costs There are some situations when you shoud et us know about payments you have made for your drugs. In these cases, you are not asking us for payment. Instead, you are teing us about your payments so that we can cacuate your out-of-pocket costs

165 2015 Evidence of Coverage for WeCare Rx (HMO) 163 Chapter 7: Asking us to pay our share of a bi you have received for covered medica services or drugs correcty. This may hep you to quaify for the Catastrophic Coverage Stage more quicky. Here are two situations when you shoud send us copies of receipts to et us know about payments you have made for your drugs: 1. When you buy the drug for a price that is ower than our price Sometimes when you are in the Coverage Gap Stage you can buy your drug at a network pharmacy for a price that is ower than our price. For exampe, a pharmacy might offer a specia price on the drug. Or you may have a discount card that is outside our benefit that offers a ower price. Uness specia conditions appy, you must use a network pharmacy in these situations and your drug must be on our Drug List. Save your receipt and send a copy to us so that we can have your out-of-pocket expenses count toward quaifying you for the Catastrophic Coverage Stage. Pease note: If you are in the Coverage Gap Stage, we wi not pay for any share of these drug costs. But sending a copy of the receipt aows us to cacuate your out-of-pocket costs correcty and may hep you quaify for the Catastrophic Coverage Stage more quicky. 2. When you get a drug through a patient assistance program offered by a drug manufacturer Some members are enroed in a patient assistance program offered by a drug manufacturer that is outside the pan benefits. If you get any drugs through a program offered by a drug manufacturer, you may pay a co-payment to the patient assistance program. Save your receipt and send a copy to us so that we can have your out-of-pocket expenses count toward quaifying you for the Catastrophic Coverage Stage. Pease note: Because you are getting your drug through the patient assistance program and not through the pan s benefits, we wi not pay for any share of these drug costs. But sending a copy of the receipt aows us to cacuate your out-of-pocket costs correcty and may hep you quaify for the Catastrophic Coverage Stage more quicky. Since you are not asking for payment in the two cases described above, these situations are not considered coverage decisions. Therefore, you cannot make an appea if you disagree with our decision.
