1 HOW TO CHOOSE A MEDICAL PLAN MOTT COMMUNITY COLLEGE Chadd Hodkinson SET SEG Employee Benefit Services Account Executive
2 The content in this presentation is informational. Each employee should review the benefit summary and network information specific to their plan and discuss specific circumstances and questions with their carrier. Health savings accounts (HSAs) and flexible spending arrangements (FSAs) are IRS-regulated accounts. Nothing in this presentation represents tax advice. Discuss HSA/FSA questions with a tax advisor.
3 TOPICS OF DISCUSSION Insurance terms The Pick Two concept Traditional plan vs. high deductible health plan Flexible spending arrangements Health savings accounts Risk tolerance How to choose a medical plan
4 WHAT IS INSURANCE? Insurance is paying someone else to take risk for you Insurance versus budget How is premium determined? Where does the premium go?
5 COVERAGE LEVEL This usually sets what is covered and the amount we have to spend out of pocket for services received Covered services List of medical procedures and prescription drugs that are covered under the plan Deductible What employee owes before insurance plan pays Copayment or Copay A fixed amount paid for a particular service Coinsurance Employee s share of health care costs after deductible is met Out of pocket maximum Maximum amount we will spend on deductibles, coinsurance and copays
6 COINSURANCE EXAMPLE 0% Coinsurance After Deductible $500 Individual Deductible 100% Coverage After Deductible (except for services subject to a copay) 20% Coinsurance After Deductible 100% Coverage After Deductible and Coinsurance (except for services subject to a copay) $500 Individual Deductible 20% Cost Share Up to Another $1,000
7 OUT OF POCKET MAXIMUM EXAMPLE 100% coverage (even for services subject to copay) Deductible, coinsurance and copay expenditures for approved, innetwork services $1,500 per individual, $3,000 total for a couple or family
8 FLEXIBILITY Traditional Maximum flexibility Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) Self-referral Point of Service (POS) Primary care physician Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) Managed care
9 PREMIUM COST SHARE Premium cost share is what your employer deducts from your check each pay period for you to stay enrolled in the plan.
10 PA 152 Public Act 152 of 2011 limits the amount that public employers can pay toward employees health insurance (medical coverage). Currently, the annual hard cap limits are: Single Coverage: $5, Two Person Coverage: $12, Family Coverage: $15, The difference between the plan cost and the hard cap amount the employer can contribute is the premium cost share for the employee.
11 THE PICK TWO CONCEPT Coverage Level What benefits and prescriptions are covered; out of pocket costs under the plan (deductible, copays, etc.) Flexibility The degree of employee discretion when choosing facilities and providers Premium Cost Share The amount the employee has deducted from their check each pay period to be enrolled in the plan
12 TRADITIONAL PLAN May or may not have deductibles Copays generally apply on day one of plan Deductibles generally only apply to certain services (e.g. inpatient hospital stays, out patient surgical procedures, diagnostic testing, etc. see benefit summary for details) Copays generally cover standard services (e.g. office visits, urgent care visits, emergency room visits, prescription drugs, etc.) and do not apply to deductible Depending on carrier and plan, may provide high or low level of coverage, high or low level of flexibility and high or low level of cost Compatible with a flexible spending arrangement (FSA)
13 HIGH DEDUCTIBLE HEALTH PLAN (HDHP) Deductible of at least $1,300 for a single person and $2,600 for two-person or family coverage Employee pays 100% (except for preventive care) of medical and prescription drug costs (less any carrier discounts) until deductible is met Copays do not apply until deductible is met Generally lower coverage level and lower cost Depending on carrier and network, may provide high or low level of flexibility Compatible with a flexible spending arrangement (FSA) or a health savings account (HSA)
14 FLEXIBLE SPENDING ARRANGEMENT (FSA) BASICS Tax sheltered account that can be used to reimburse approved medical expenses on a pre-tax basis Employee s FSA is funded with employee-elected, pre-tax, payroll deductions. The employee sets the contribution amount. Money goes in tax free and comes out tax free (if spent on approved medical expenses) IRS allows contributions up to $2,550 for 2015 (discuss maximum contribution specifics with college HR department) Account is use it or lose it The entire elected amount is available on day 1 of the FSA plan year, even though money will be deducted over the course of the year
15 HEALTH SAVINGS ACCOUNT (HSA) BASICS The account and its contents belong to you Money goes in tax free, can grow tax free and comes out tax free (if spent on approved medical expenses) Rolls over year after year (no use it or lose it) Fully portable if you leave the high deductible plan or the district Accessible in retirement
16 HSA LIMITATIONS Only available with tax qualified high deductible health plan (HDHP) May not contribute (or receive contributions) to an HSA if enrolled in other coverage that is not a tax-qualified HDHP (including Medicare or a medical FSA) May not contribute (or receive contributions) to an HSA if claimed as a dependent on someone else s tax return or if a beneficiary of someone else s general purpose FSA Discuss other limitations that apply to HSAs and/or FSAs with a tax advisor
17 RISK TOLERANCE How much risk related to your health insurance is too much risk for you? No one else can decide that for you. o Example: With your current health and financial circumstances, plan A will cost you less in premium cost share than plan B. However, if you are prescribed a very expensive medication during the year, plan A will require you to pay a large share of the cost of that expensive medication while plan B will only require you to pay a small share of the cost.
18 RISK TOLERANCE Neither plan is the right choice; neither is wrong If you choose plan A, have a plan for covering unexpected expenses If you choose plan B, be sure you can afford the premium cost share and still have money left to pay any out of pocket expenses under the plan
19 HOW TO CHOOSE A MEDICAL PLAN Which two elements of the Pick 2 concept are offered? What does the plan cover and what is the out of pocket exposure? (Coverage Level) What hospitals, providers and facilities participate with the plan s network? (Flexibility) What is the premium cost share for the plan? (Cost) What tax leveraged accounts are available? FSA? HSA? Is this plan compatible with my level of risk tolerance?
20 WHICH PLAN IS RIGHT FOR ME? Example: Plan 1, BCBSM, $1000/$2000, assume family coverage Best Case Worst Case Actual How much will you spend in each category? Deductible $0 $2,000? Coinsurance $0 $0 $0 Copays $0 $10,700? Annual Premium Cost Share $4,280 $4,280 $4,280 Annual Total $4,280 $16,280? *Example assumes member accesses approved, in-network services only. Numbers rounded for simplicity.
21 HOW TO CHOOSE A MEDICAL PLAN Plan 1 BCBSM Traditional PPO $1,000/$2,000 Higher coverage level, higher flexibility, higher cost What tax leveraged accounts are available? FSA compatible Is this plan compatible with my level of risk tolerance? Fits an individual with a lower risk tolerance
22 WHICH PLAN IS RIGHT FOR ME? Example: Plan 2 HSA, $1300/$2600 Assume Family Coverage Best Case Worst Case Actual How much will you spend in each category? Deductible $0 $2,500? Coinsurance $0 $0 $0 Copays $0 $2,000? Annual Premium Cost Share $790 $790 $790 Annual Total $790 $5,290? *Example assumes member accesses approved, in-network services only. Numbers rounded for simplicity.
23 HOW TO CHOOSE A MEDICAL PLAN Plan 2 BCBSM HSA $1,300/$2,600 Lower coverage level, higher flexibility, lower cost What tax leveraged accounts are available? HSA or FSA compatible Is this plan compatible with my level of risk tolerance? Fits an individual with a moderate risk tolerance
24 *Example assumes member accesses approved, in-network services only. A negative amount represents a deposit to the employee s health savings account. Numbers rounded for simplicity. WHICH PLAN IS RIGHT FOR ME? Example: Plan 3 HSA, $2000/$4000 Assume Family Coverage Best Case Worst Case Actual How much will you spend in each category? Deductible $0 $4,000? Coinsurance $0 $0 $0 Copays $0 $2,000? Annual Premium Cost Share -$1,010 -$1,010 -$1,010 Annual Total -$1,010 $4,990?
25 HOW TO CHOOSE A MEDICAL PLAN Plan 3 BCBSM HSA $2,000/$4,000 Lower coverage level, higher flexibility, lower cost What tax leveraged accounts are available? HSA or FSA compatible Is this plan compatible with my level of risk tolerance? Fits an individual with a higher risk tolerance

Is there an opportunity to pay for medical expenses on a pre-tax basis using an FSA or HSA? What is your risk tolerance?
