Live the Orange Life: Guide to Your Benefits Guam Part-Time Hourly Associates Medical Coverage for 2010 What s New NEW!!! Medical coverage is now available to part-time associates! For 2010, part-time associates can choose medical coverage through the TakeCare $10,000 Max medical plan. Medical Enrollment Must-Knows You must go to the Your Benefits Resources Web site and actively enroll in the new medical plan by November 13 to have medical coverage in 2010! If you don t actively enroll, you won t have medical coverage next year. Your Medical Option for 2010 The TakeCare $10,000 Max Plan The TakeCare $10,000 Max medical plan is available to you and your eligible dependents. You must use a TakeCare participating provider. The TakeCare network is the largest on-island network of medical providers and pharmacies, including the FHP clinic. No medical benefits are payable for services received from a non-network provider. To find a TakeCare participating provider, go to www.takecareasia.com or call the Customer Service department on Guam at 1-671-647-3526. The TakeCare $10,000 Max plan has benefit limits on some services, such as primary office visits. When you have reached the limit for a plan service, the plan will not pay any more benefits for that service. For example, the plan has a $200 limit (per covered individual per calendar year) on primary office visits. This means that after you or a covered dependent has incurred $200 in primary office visit expenses in a calendar year, the plan will not pay any more for primary office visit expenses for that person. For information on your medical coverage and the plan limits, see the Medical Plan chapter of the Benefits Summary for Guam part-time associates. To verify that you and your dependents are eligible for coverage in 2010, see the Eligibility and Enrollment chapter of the Benefits Summary.
