Frequently Asked Questions

General

When will my child (ren) dependent be removed off my medical, dental and/or vision coverage?

The end of the year in which your child (ren) dependent turns 26 years old.

Can I switch from my PPO to HDHP? Will there be any penalties?

you can make any changes to your benefits during Open Enrollment or if you have a qualifying life event throughout the year. There are no penalties, however please be sure you understand the plan that you are electing.

What is an embedded deductible (PPO Medical)?

In plans that have an embedded deductible, the full family deductible includes an individual deductible. In other words, an individual deductible is embedded within the family deductible. Once a plan member meets the individual deductible, claims for that person will be covered according to the plan, even if the full family deductible hasn’t been met. But one person’s claims will not satisfy more than the individual deductible. At least one other family member’s claims need to count toward the remaining family deductible until the plan’s family deductible amount is met.

What is a non-embedded deductible (HSA Medical)?

Under a non-embedded deductible, all family members qualify for plan benefits, if the total deductible amount is met by one or any combination of covered individuals. This means the cost of one individual’s care can meet the deductible for the whole family. Or the cost of care for any combination of family members can meet it. But no one receives any plan benefits until the total deductible is met.

Why am I seeing a cost when I went in for a physical?

You are seeing a cost because your provider either coded your visit incorrectly or they did additional work outside of the annual preventative services covered 100%.
