GETTING STARTED The health benefits programs for hourly employees are designed to address rising healthcare costs by focusing on prevention and encouraging you to apply the principles of good consumerism to your decisions regarding healthcare from prescription drug choices to annual routine tests to selecting physicians. Healthcare Contributions You help pay for your healthcare benefits in the form of a contribution that is deducted from your paycheck before taxes. Depending on your enrollment elections you pay a percentage of the cost of coverage, and the company pays the balance. Because tobacco use is the number one cause of preventable death in the United States, employees and spouses who are tobacco users and do not enroll in the tobacco cessation program will pay a premium surcharge for medical benefits. You ll find details regarding your contribution rates in your enrollment kit. Enrolling for Health Benefits You may enroll yourself, your spouse, and/or your eligible dependent(s) in a health benefits program within your first 31 days of work orduring your designated enrollment period. Coverage is effective the day following 90 days of employment. If your situation changes through marriage or the birth of a child, for example you can change your coverage by notifying the PCA Benefits Center within 45 days of the qualifying event (within 60 days for special enrollment events related to Medicaid or the Children s Health Insurance Program [CHIP]). Dental and vision benefits are a combined election with one monthly contribution. So, if you elect dental coverage, you will automatically receive vision coverage. Your medical benefits (which include prescription drug) are a separate option. You may choose to elect just medical, just dental/vision, or both. BENEFITS OVERVIEW HEALTH BENEFITS 1

HEALTH BENEFITS Medical Benefits The medical benefits program is designed to enhance your ability to live a healthier life helping you cover the cost of office visits, hospital stays, surgery, and other common medical services.

Flexible Spending Account An FSA allows you to use tax-free dollars to pay for eligible out-of-pocket healthcare expenses. In the process, you also lower your taxable income. You can enroll in an FSA even if you don t enroll in the health care program. FSAs are administered by WageWorks. Healthcare FSA you can elect up to $2,500 per year to pay for eligible out-of-pocket healthcare expenses. The Healthcare FSA provides you the opportunity to proactively plan and budget for your healthcare expenses annually. How the Program Works When you enroll in an FSA, you estimate your out-of-pocket expenses for the coming calendar year and elect an annual goal amount. The goal amount is then divided into equal amounts that are automatically deducted from each of your paychecks on a pretax basis and deposited into your FSA. (Keep in mind that if you enroll anytime after the first of the year, the goal amount is still dividided equally for the remainder of the calendar year.) You have from January to December to incur eligible out-of-pocket expenses. If you enroll in an FSA, you will receive a welcome kit from WageWorks. The kit will provide more details about WageWorks and how the program works. One important FSA restriction required under IRS regulations is the Use it or lose it rule. This rule states that if you set aside more money in an FSA than you can claim in reimbursements, you will lose any money left in your account. So, estimate your out-of-pocket expenses carefully and take advantage of the savings the FSA has to offer. And Remember: you must elect an FSA each year in order to participate in the program.
