2 HEALTH PLAN OPTIONS FOR 2016 In response to significant increases in our pharmacy plan costs, claim costs for two plans exceeding premiums, and the potential impact of Health Care Reform s Cadillac Tax (a 40% excise tax based on the actuarial value of the plans) in 2018, we are implementing several changes for The major change is the replacement of the Consumer Driven Health Plan (CDH OON) with Out of Network coverage with a new High Deductible Health Plan with Out of Network coverage (HDHP OON). Members enrolled in the current CDH OON plan will see a significant reduction in their bi-weekly premium for the new HDHP OON plan. Highlights of HDHP Plans All health and prescription services are subject to the annual deductible and coinsurance based on tier of coverage with the exception of mandated preventive services or designated preventive prescriptions (see Preventive Rx list at broward.org/benefits, click on Open Enrollment, then Pharmacy). Medical and prescription expenses will be applied toward meeting the annual deductible and coinsurance amount based on tier of coverage (Member Only coverage or Member + Dependent(s) coverage). Once the annual deductible is met, the health and pharmacy plan pays 70% and you pay 30% coinsurance of the eligible discounted costs (in-network). When you reach the out-of-pocket maximum, the Plan pays 100% of eligible in-network health and prescription expenses for the remainder of the calendar year. Preventive services and designated preventive prescriptions are covered at 100%. Student Passport program for dependents attending college outside of the service area (HDHP Base Plan only as HDHP OON has a national network). Annual eye exam at no cost at a participating optometrist. Discount dental plan included at participating dental providers. Highlights of CDH High and Low Plans No changes to CDH Plan design, deductibles, coinsurance, copays, and out-of-pocket maximums for CDH High and CDH Low Plans. Both plans have higher premiums due to significant increase in pharmacy costs. Preventive services covered 100% in-network. Some services received for a copay (varies by CDH plan). Some services subject to the annual deductible/co-insurance (varies by CDH plan). Student passport program for dependents attending college outside of the service area. Behavioral health out-patient services first 20 visits covered at no cost (CDH High only). Diagnostic tests at a participating freestanding facility capped at $100 per test. Annual eye exam at no cost at a participating optometrist. Discount dental plan included at participating dental providers. Networks HDHP Base Plan, CDH High and CDH Low-Humana s Florida Premier HMO network-open Access* HDHP Out of Network Humana s National POS network-open Access* * Open Access means a referral to see most network specialists is not required. However, certain services require Prior Authorization. NOTE: If moving outside of the Humana Florida Premier HMO network, you must notify Benefits and change to the HDHP with Out of Network coverage. 2

See applicable category on Catamaran s Formulary list for covered generic and formulary medications. No The primary difference between the two health plans is the CDH plans have some health services and Rx for copays, whereas the HDHP has no copays for health or Rx. Other than preventive services and designated preventive drugs, under the HDHP, all services (including lab work) and prescriptions are paid by the member at the discounted plan cost until the deductible is met. Example: Type of Service HDHP CDH HIGH Preventive Exam $0 $0 Primary Care Physician Average $30 - $70 (based on type of office $25 visit) plus any lab work. Specialist Average $120 (based on type of office visit $50 and services provided). Lab Work Plan cost based on prescribed tests (Avg. Lipid Included in office visit copay Panel $35-$50).
