The HRA funds are available as long as you remain enrolled in the Pelican HRA1000. Any unused funds will accrue to the in-network, out-of-pocket maximum (see following chart), allowing members to build up balances that cover eligible medical expenses.

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

18 Magnolia Open Access (Nationwide In and Out-of-Network Provider Plan) The Magnolia Open Access Plan offers coverage both inside and outside of Blue Cross s nationwide network. It differs from the other Magnolia plans in that members enrolled in the Open Access plan will not pay co-payments at physician visits. Instead, once a member s deductible for allowable charges is met, he or she will pay 20% of the allowable amount for in-network care and 20% of the allowable amount for out-of-network care. Out-of-network care may be balance billed. Though the premiums for the Open Access plan are higher than OGB s other plans, its moderate deductibles combined with a nationwide network make it an attractive plan for members who live out of state or desire the flexibility to use an out-of-network provider.

21 Retiree 100 Retired enrollees in the Magnolia Open Access benefit option who have Medicare Part A and Part B as their primary insurer are eligible to participate in the Retiree 100 program. This program serves as additional coverage for enrollees who have extensive hospital bills and/or large amounts of physician charges due to a serious illness, accident or long-term chronic condition. Not All Expenses Are Eligible Retiree 100 coordinates only those expenses considered eligible for reimbursement by both Medicare and the Magnolia Open Access plan and does not include prescription drugs. Premiums The monthly premium for Retiree 100 is $39.00 per person in addition to your monthly OGB premium. There is no state contribution toward the premium amount; you must pay the entire cost for Retiree 100 coverage. Enrollment If you are already retired, you can enroll during the annual enrollment period held each year. Also, you can enroll within 30 days after the date you first became eligible for Medicare (Parts A and B). Coverage becomes effective on the first day of the month you became eligible for Medicare.

22 Magnolia Local (Limited In-Network Provider Plan) The Magnolia Local plan is a limited provider innetwork only plan for members who live in specific coverage areas. Magnolia Local is a health plan for members who want local access, affordable premiums and a new approach to health care. Out-of-network coverage is provided only in emergencies and members may be subject to balance billing.

23 Magnolia Local What is different about Magnolia Local? Your network of doctors and hospitals is more defined than other plans. You still have a full network of primary care doctors, specialists and other healthcare providers in your area. You have a coordinated care team that talks to one another and helps you get the right care in the right place. Staying in network is very important! Your residence will determine which Magnolia Local network you will use. Before you choose Magnolia Local, consider this: Which doctors/clinics/hospitals do you go to the most? Are those providers in this network? Staying in network is very important! As long as you receive care within your network, you will pay less than if you receive care outside of the network.
