You will receive additional information about open enrollment as we get closer to the date. This guide is intended to be a quick reference. You will find more details on our health plans and other benefits on the Hospital intranet pages. You can also learn more about your medical benefits by visiting www.lifebridgehealthplans.com. Please review this information thoroughly and make sure you understand all the benefits that are available to you.

Benefit Basics YOUR 2018 BENEFIT GUIDE You have access to a variety of benefits to provide comprehensive coverage for you and your family. Please read this guide to learn more about your benefits. Eligibility You are considered a benefits-eligible Associate* and able to participate in the benefit program if you are: Actively budgeted to work full-time (72-80 hours per pay period), or Actively budgeted to work part-time (48-71 hours per pay period). *Affordable Care Act employer responsibility applies. You will be notified if you are impacted. Medical, dental and vision are effective on the first day of the month following your date of hire. Other benefits are effective the first of the month following 30 days. Your dependents can also enroll for coverage, including: Your legal spouse Your children up to age 26 Open Enrollment The benefits you elect during Open Enrollment will take effect on January 1, 2018 and will remain in effect until December 31, 2018 (as long as you remain benefits eligible). Remember that you may only change coverage if you experience a qualifying life event, as described below. You must enroll by October 31, 2017 or it will be assumed all benefits are waived. Qualifying Life Events Generally, you may only make or change your existing benefit elections during the open enrollment window. However, you may change your benefit elections during the year if you experience an event such as: Marriage Divorce or legal separation Birth of your child Death of your spouse or dependent child Adoption of or placement for adoption of your child Change in employment status of employee, spouse or dependent child Qualification by the Plan Administrator of a child support order for medical coverage New entitlement to Medicare or Medicaid You must notify Human Resources within 30 days of a qualifying life event. Depending on the type of event, you may need to provide proof of the event, such as a marriage license. Human Resources will let you know what documentation you should provide. If you do not contact Human Resources within 30 days of the qualified event, you will have to wait until the next open enrollment window to make changes (unless you experience another qualifying life event). Change in Benefit Eligibility Status If you transfer into a benefits-eligible position for the first time, you can enroll and make your benefit elections. If this occurs, your benefits will change effective the first day of the month following your status change. If you do not complete the enrollment process within 30 days, you will not be able to change your benefits until the next annual open enrollment period. Information needed to complete the enrollment process can be found on pages 18 through 19. New Hires Enrollment should be completed prior to the effective date to ensure that everything is in place once benefits are active. If you fail to complete enrollment within 30 days, you will not be eligible to enroll in benefits again until the next annual enrollment period. Information needed to complete the enrollment process is on page 18. For more information about your benefits: Phone: 410-601-8000 Online: extra.carrollhospitalcenter.org 3

Health Care Coverage YOUR 2018 BENEFIT GUIDE Your health care coverage includes medical, dental and vision plans. Detailed information about each plan is in this section. If you have questions, please contact Employee Services. Your Medical Plan You have two medical plan options: Health Saver Plan (with HSA) Premium Health Plan Both plans are administered by QualCare, Inc., a Cigna company, so you can choose the coverage level bestsuited to your personal situation. Both medical plans include prescription drug benefits through CVS. In/Out-of-Network Coverage Each medical plan features in- and out-of-network coverage; individual and family deductibles; coinsurance; and out-of-pocket maximums. Some offer a lower monthly cost, a higher deductible, and lower coinsurance amounts, while others cost more each month but offer a lower deductible and higher levels of coinsurance. If you don t understand some of these terms, please refer to the Glossary on page 16. You may use in- or out-of-network providers. You will always pay less if you see a doctor or receive services within the provider network because the plan pays more in-network. Your LifeBridge Health medical benefits include three tiers of coverage, two in-network benefits and one out-of-network benefits. LifeBridge Providers and Cigna OAP are in-network. Deductible You must meet an annual deductible before the medical plan begins to cover a portion of your costs (the Premium Health Plan office visits are covered before the deductible); however, under the Health Saver Plan your HSA may pay for some of those expenses. Once the deductible is met, the medical plan begins to pay for a percentage of covered expenses (this is called coinsurance). Note that with the HDHP, prescriptions are subject to the medical deductible and out-of-pocket maximum. Out-of-pocket maximums Out-of-pocket maximums apply to all of the plans. This is the maximum amount you will pay for health care costs in a calendar year. Once you have reached the out-of-pocket maximum, the plan will fully cover eligible medical expenses for the rest of the benefits plan year (except for any copayments). However, if you see an out-of-network provider, you may be responsible for out-of-pocket costs that are considered above the reasonable and customary fees. You decide which medical plan will work best for you and your family based on the monthly cost of coverage, the annual deductible, the out-of-pocket maximum, and the funding account you will use. 5

Health Savings Account Your health care coverage under the Health Saver Plan includes a Health Savings Account, an easy way to save pre-tax money to use on medical expenses. Health Savings Account What is it? A Health Saving Account (an HSA) is a tax-advantaged account similar to a savings or checking account and is usually established with a bank or insurance company. Only individuals enrolled in the Health Saver Plan are eligible to make tax deductible contributions to an HSA. Contributions to HSAs can be made through pretax payroll deductions or directly to the HSA administrator, in which case you receive your tax deduction when you file your federal tax return for the year. In addition, any funds withdrawn from an HSA (including employer contributions) are never taxed as long as they are used to pay for qualified expenses. Health Saver Plan and HSA Working Together Each time you seek medical care under the Health Saver Plan, you can: (1) pay for the services using funds from your HSA, or (2) choose to pay out-of-pocket and let the funds continue to gain tax-free interest or investment return. Once you meet the deductible, services are covered according to the Plan s benefit schedule. After you have incurred a qualified expense, there are several options available for accessing HSA funds. Your HSA administrator may: (1) allow you to draw directly from your account with a debit card, (2) give you the option for automatic withdrawal, or (3) require you to submit a completed claim form. With automatic withdrawal, once your medical claim is processed, your out-of-pocket expenses are automatically processed through your HSA for reimbursement. It s Your Money Unused HSA funds stay in your account and continue to accumulate and earn non-taxable interest or investment return over the life of the account. Your account is portable. You can take your account with you if you retire or leave your employment. All funds in your HSA are your money! HSA Eligibility Requirements In order to be eligible for an HSA account, you must: Be covered by a plan that qualifies as a High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP) Not be claimed as a dependent on another person's tax return Not be covered under another medical plan that is not an HDHP Not be enrolled in Medicare Part A or B (active employees age 65 or over can contribute to an HSA as long as they are not enrolled in either Medicare Part A or Part B) Not be in receipt of VA medical or prescription benefits within the previous three months. IRS guidance states that otherwise eligible individuals are not eligible to make contributions to an HSA in any month if the individual received medical or prescription benefits from the VA at any time during the previous three months. State laws may vary; however, most states follow Federal tax guidelines. Funding Limits For 2018, annual contributions to an HSA are limited to $3,450 for single coverage and $6,900 for family coverage. If you are age 55 or older, you may make a catch-up contribution each year to the HSA. In 2018, the catch-up amount is $1,000. LifeBridge Health also provides a company contribution: $600 for individual coverage or $1,200 for family coverage. Contributions will be made in two installments, with the first pay in January and the second pay in July (if you are employed the full year). This reduces your annual contribution limit. The combined total contribution between the employee and the employer cannot exceed the IRS annual limit. Tax Reporting HSAs have some significant tax advantages because contributions to an HSA are tax favored and earn tax-free interest or investment return. 6

Flexible Spending Accounts A Flexible Spending Account (FSA) is a program that helps you pay for health care and dependent care costs using tax-free dollars. On an annual basis, you decide how much money you would like to contribute to one or both accounts. Your contribution is deducted from your paycheck on a pretax basis and is put into the Health Care FSA, the Dependent Care FSA, or both. When you incur expenses, you can access the funds in your account to pay for eligible health care or dependent care expenses. This chart shows the eligible expenses for each FSA; how much you can contribute to each FSA each year, and how you benefit by using an FSA. ACCOUNT TYPE AND ELIGIBLE EXPENSES HEALTH CARE FSA Most medical, dental and vision care expenses that are not covered by your health plan (such as copayments, coinsurance, deductibles, eyeglasses and doctor-prescribed over the counter medications) LIMITED PURPOSE HEALTH CARE FSA Only dental and vision care expenses that are not covered by your Health Saver Plan (with HSA) DEPENDENT CARE FSA (Covers children to age 13) Dependent care expenses (such as day care, after school programs or elder care programs) so you and your spouse can work or attend school full-time ANNUAL CONTRIBUTION LIMITS Maximum contribution is $2,600 per year Maximum contribution is $2,600 per year Maximum contribution is $5,000 per year ($2,500 if married and filing separate tax returns) BENEFIT Saves on eligible expenses not covered by insurance; reduces your taxable income Saves on eligible dental and vision expenses not covered by insurance; reduces your taxable income Reduces your taxable income Example Here s a look at how much you can save when you use an FSA to pay for your health care and dependent care expenses.

It assumes a 25% Federal income tax rate marginal rate and a 7.7% FICA marginal rate. State and local taxes vary, and are not included in this example. However, you will also save on any state and local taxes. Important Information about FSAs Your FSA elections are effective from January 1 through December 31. Claims for reimbursement must be submitted by March 31 of the following year. Please plan your contributions carefully. Up to $500 of the money left in your account as of March 31 can be carried over to the next plan year. These plans are governed by Internal Revenue Service regulations. Note that FSA elections do not automatically continue from year to year; you must actively enroll each year. 12

Glossary Understand the medical terms that are used in your plan. Brand Name Drugs: Drugs that have trade names and are protected by patents. Brand name drugs are generally the most costly choice. Coinsurance: The percentage of a covered charge paid by the plan. Copayment (Copay): A flat dollar amount you pay for medical or prescription drug services regardless of the actual amount charged by your doctor or health care provider. Deductible: The annual amount you and your family must pay each year before the plan pays benefits. Generic Drugs: Generic drugs are less expensive versions of brand name drugs that have the same intended use, dosage, effects, risks, safety and strength. The strength and purity of generic medications are strictly regulated by the Federal Food and Drug Administration. High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP): A medical plan that may be used in conjunction with a health reimbursement account (HRA) or a health savings account (HSA). Health Savings Account (HSA): A fund you can use to help pay for eligible medical costs not covered by your medical plan. Both employers and employees may contribute to this fund; employees may do so through pretax payroll deductions. Equity partners can have monthly contributions charged against their monthly draw account. In-Network (Tier 1 and 2): Use of a health care provider that participates in the plan s network. When you use providers in the network, you lower your out-of-pocket expenses because the plan pays a higher percentage of covered expenses. Out-of-Network (Tier 3): Use of a health care provider that does not participate in a plan s network. Mail Order Pharmacy: Mail order pharmacies generally provide a 90-day supply of a prescription medication for the same cost as a 60-day supply at a retail pharmacy.

Outpatient: Services provided to an individual at a hospital facility without an overnight hospital stay. Out-of-Pocket Maximum: The maximum amount you and your family must pay for eligible expenses each plan year. Once your expenses reach the out-of-pocket maximum, the plan pays benefits at 100% of eligible expenses for the remainder of the year, except for prescriptions under the Premium plan, which has a separate Rx out-of-pocket maximum. Primary Care Physician (PCP): Physician (generally a family practitioner, internist or pediatrician) who provides ongoing medical care. A primary care physician treats a wide variety of health-related conditions and refers patients to specialists as necessary. Specialist: A physician who has specialized training in a particular branch of medicine (e.g., a surgeon, gastroenterologist or neurologist). Limited Purpose FSA: A medical flexible spending account that you may be able to enroll in when you have a health savings account (HSA).
