LTD insurance replaces a portion of your income (60% of your pre-disability monthly earnings) when you can’t work, due to illness or injury, to help you pay for your essential living expenses after a 90 day elimination period. Social Security benefits are not available if your are expected to be out of work for LESS than one year. LTD insurance could help supplement your income if you don’t qualify for Social Security benefits. If you or others depend on your income LTD insurance helps you to maintain a steady income when you can’t work due to illness or injury.

How does the Cofinity PPO work? A PPO is a “network” of physicians and hospitals who contract with a vendor (Cofinity) for a percentage off the providers billed price. As a “self insured” employer, we can then contract with a network (Cofinity) to have access to their doctors. We depend on the Network to negotiate with their physicians and hospitals for the best possible prices and are required to pay whatever the Networks contract with these providers. Your employer has no input or negotiating power with any providers.

So, how does a PPO network work in real life? Remember, the employer is required to pay whatever the network tells them to, in other words, the employer has no control over what the doctor bills or what the network tells them to pay. The contract the network has with providers is a percent off of billed price. The employer is never allowed to see the contract the network has with its providers nor are the providers required to be reasonable with what they bill. How much do you think a hospital should bill for a MRI of one knee?

MRI of one knee Last year, for the same exact test and code, your employer plan was billed a range of: $115 - $10,600 This is the “billed” price over which there is no rule or regulation. Now, the doctor sends this bill to the network and they then “re-price” that bill according to their secret contract with that doctor. So, what did the network tell your employer plan to pay? $72.19 - $5,019.48

So? Well, it just does not make sense for your employer to have NO CONTROL over the billed price or the price they have to pay. What if – you needed a gallon of milk. Your local store has a deal where you can pick a coupon out of a box worth between 10% and 99% off the price of milk. Once at the store you find out they are charging $100.00 for the milk but you are going to try to pull that 99% off coupon out of the box. Only one catch, whatever you pull out of the box, you have to use toward the purchase of the milk, you cannot leave the store without purchasing the milk. This means you are stuck paying anywhere from $90 to $1, you won’t know until you pull that coupon. So, there must be another way. . . . . . . .

There is another way. Many employers have dropped their PPO Network for something called Medicare Referenced-Based pricing This concept is easy. Almost all services you receive have a Medicare amount (or price) assigned to them by the Government.

Medicare Referenced-Based pricing The Government sets the Medicare rate based on what services actually cost. Your employers new plan will pay your doctors and hospitals their Medicare rate plus 40 percent. So, if the Medicare rate for an MRI of the knee is $240, your employer would pay your doctor $336.

Do all services have a Medicare rate? While MOST services do - not all services have a Medicare rate. For instance, services at a Children’s hospital do not have Medicare rates. But, ALL services DO have a Medicare equivalent/related rate which is what we will use in this instance.

So what is my plan called? You have a self-insured employer plan that utilizes: “Medicare reference-based pricing” You do not have Medicare or a Medicare plan. Your plan simply uses Medicare published rates as a starting point to make payment to the providers.

Can the provider bill me for the difference between what they ask for and what the employer pays them? Yes they can, but. . . . All providers will know ahead of time how your plan works because. . . You will present all of your providers with your new card which clearly states what and how they will be reimbursed. This information will also be on each Explanation of Benefits and the check they receive for their services.

Your new card The information on your new card will tell the provider, “This Plan does not utilize a PPO Network. As such all medical service providers are reimbursed per the terms of the Plan Document, up to the Maximum Payable Amount. Payment is based on Medicare PLUS 40%. Prior to treatment, confirm the provider accepts this as payment in full.” You must present your card to your provider so there is no misrepresentation regarding how your plan will pay for your services.

So, what happens if I get a bill at home? A bill at home is called “balance billing”. Meaning your provider wants to be reimbursed over the reasonable/agreed upon amount your employer has paid on your behalf. Your employer has contracted with a Patient Advocate for YOU for just this instance. You will have a toll-free number directly to a person who will contact the provider on your behalf. Anytime the Patient Advocate communicates with your provider you will receive a copy of the communication so you are completely aware of the entire process. I will be handing out a Member Packet from the Patient Advocate here today for you to keep. I would suggest that EVERYONE here contact them as soon as possible because one of their responsibilities is to contact your provider for you before July 1st to ensure they will accept your new plan. But they need to hear from you first. This information will also always be available on yourebl.com under your employer name.

Please remember. . . If you get a bill at home it is your responsibility to call your Advocate and let them work for you. You are the ONLY one who will get the bill from your provider and you are the ONLY one who can ask for the Advocate help.

What will your out-of-pocket amounts be this year? You will have a co-pay only if you need services at specific locations. Any covered service in your physician office (including lab and x-ray) $0 Urgent Care $50 Outpatient Hospital (surgery, MRI, CT Scan) $250 Ambulatory Surgical Center $250 Birthing Center $250 Emergency Room $300 Home Health Care $250 Hospice $250 OP/$1,000 IP Inpatient Rehabilitation Facility (Ortho, Cardiac) $1,000 Outpatient Rehabilitation (Speech, Occupational, Physical) $250 Inpatient Hospital $1,000 Ambulance (ground only) $500 *These co-pays are per occurrence so each time you go to Urgent Care you will be responsible for $50. If you are admitted to the hospital as an inpatient you will be responsible for $1,000 for that entire stay. *services must be covered benefits.

What will my total Out-Of-Pocket amount be for the plan year (until June 30, 2015)? Part of the Affordable Care Act law dictates what limits you can be charged as out-of-pocket expenses. Your employer has chosen to keep these out-of-pocket amounts well below what the law allows. The out-of-pocket is as follows: Employee $2,000 Spouse $3,000 Child $2,000 The TOTAL out-of-pocket for a family is $10,000. But remember, because each person accumulates individually an employee who insures themselves, their spouse and two children will max out at $9,000. If it is just you and your spouse, you max out at $5,000. You accumulate this TOTAL through the co-pays only if you need special services – from previous slide. Each person will accumulate their own out-of-pocket up to this amount

Exclusions and special issues Mental health is EXCLUDED from your plan. Your employer plan is secondary to your auto insurance. Meaning, you need to call your auto carrier and tell them they are primary for your health care in case of injury in an auto accident. It is against the law to operate a vehicle without insurance. If you are injured in an auto accident and are not carrying auto insurance you will have no coverage.

DME All DME including diabetic supplies: Syringes, needles, alcohol swabs, gauze, test strips, lancets, tubing and pumps will be covered at 100% up to a plan maximum of $2,000 per year.

How will I know what was paid on my behalf and if I owe anything? • You will receive an EOB (explanation of benefits) from the plan at your home. It will state how much the plan has paid and how much, if any, you owe the provider. • Keep all of these documents for your records. • The provider will receive the same EOB and expect payment from you for any expense you may owe.

ALERT • It is of the utmost importance that you keep your address current with Employee Benefit Logistics so that you receive your information on time
