2015 Benefits Open Enrollment

November 4 - 21, 2014 at 10PM PST

Your benefits Open Enrollment period is your once-a-year opportunity to enroll in or make changes to your hospital benefits. Any new elections or changes to coverage or dependents will be effective on January 1, 2015. Keep in mind: You may only make changes to your benefits during Open Enrollment, unless you experience a mid-year qualifying life event, such as having a baby or getting married. Changes to your benefits due to a qualifying life event must be made within 31 days of the event, and will require proof of dependent eligibility (e.g. birth certificate, marriage certificate), as applicable.

Preferred Provider

Organization (PPO)

The House Staff Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) plan offers comprehensive coverage in three ways: • If you use Stanford Health Care and Stanford Children’s

Health providers and facilities, services are covered at no charge to you.

• If you visit other providers and facilities within the UnitedHealthcare Options PPO network (UMR), you will be subject to copays, deductible and coinsurance. Services are generally covered at 80%.

• If you visit out-of-network providers and facilities, you will be subject to deductible and coinsurance. Services are generally covered at 60%.

• Preventive care services like annual physical exams and certain types of screenings are provided at no charge. There is a copayment for prescription drugs and you do not have to meet the plan’s deductible first. Prescription drug coverage is provided by Express Scripts.

Mental health and substance abuse treatment services are provided by United Behavioral Health, operating under the brand Optum. Behavioral health services are provided to House Staff employees at no charge to you. Covered dependents may receive services through the Stanford Health Care and Stanford Children’s Health network at no charge, or may utilize the UnitedHealthcare Options PPO network (UMR), or out-of-network providers and facilities (subject to copays, deductible and coinsurance).

If you earn wellness incentive funds by participating in approved wellness activities through the HealthySteps to

Wellness program, you will receive your funds in a Health

Incentive Account (HIA).

Where Can I Go to Find a

Network Provider?

The PPO Plan offers you two tiers of in-network physicians and facilities. To locate in-network physicians and facilities:

First Tier: www.stanfordhealthcarealliance.org www.pcha.org

Second Tier: www.umr.com

To find an in-network mental health or substance abuse treatment provider, visit www.liveandworkwell.com.

Kaiser Permanente HMO

With the Kaiser HMO plan, you can only see providers in the Kaiser HMO network.

You must use Kaiser doctors and facilities to receive benefits for non-emergency care. In most cases, each time you need care, you can see any Kaiser doctor. Under this plan, you do not need to select a Primary Care Physician (PCP).

• Preventive care services like annual physical exams and certain types of screenings are provided at no cost to you.

• You are responsible for all medical expenses each year, until you reach your annual deductible amount ($400/employee-only coverage or $1,000/employee + one or more covered dependents for in-network services).

• You pay a set copay for prescription drugs. Prescription drugs may only be filled at a Kaiser-affiliated pharmacy.

• Once you’ve reached your annual deductible, you will pay coinsurance or copays for covered expenses until you reach your out-of-pocket maximum for the year ($1,800/employee-only coverage or $3,600/employee + one or more covered dependents for in-network services).

• When you reach your out-of-pocket maximum, you will pay nothing for the rest of the year for covered services.

If you earn wellness incentive funds by participating in approved wellness activities through the HealthySteps to Wellness program, you will receive your funds in a Health Incentive Account (HIA). Note: You must reside in California to enroll in the Kaiser plan.

HealthySteps to Wellness

We want to help you improve and maintain your health and well-being — personally, financially and in the workplace. Through the HealthySteps to Wellness program and www.healthysteps4u.org, you have access to a variety of resources and tools

to help you take a step in the direction of better health.

By participating in the healthy lifestyle activities, you can earn up to $500 for employee coverage and up to $1,000 for employee plus one or more dependents coverage in 2015. Spouses/eligible domestic partners who are covered by a hospital medical plan are eligible to participate in the online Health Risk Assessment (HRA) to learn about their health, and the diseases and conditions for which they may be at risk. As a thank you, they will receive a $50 Amazon gift card (taxable to employee) in the mail from Limeade. More information will be coming in the December HealthySteps4U Newsletter about the 2015 HealthySteps to Wellness program.

For more information about the HealthySteps to Wellness program, visit www.healthysteps4u.org.

HealthySteps to Wellness

Your First Steps must be completed by April 30, 2015, to earn wellness dollars. All steps must be completed by October 31, 2015. Remember, to earn wellness incentive dollars, you must be enrolled in a hospital medical plan and be an active employee at the time funds are deposited, or funds will be forfeited.

(16)

Health Incentive Account

and Flexible Sending

Accounts

Health Incentive Account (HIA)

If you are enrolled in the PPO Plan, or Kaiser HMO, any wellness incentive dollars you earn by participating in the HealthySteps to Wellness program (up to $500 for employee-only or $1,000 for employee + one or more covered dependents) will be deposited into a HIA that will be set up for you.

You’re free to use this money any time during the year to help pay for your medical expenses. The funds in this account do not roll over at the end of the year, so you must use all your HIA money during 2015. Note: If your Residency will be ending in 2015, you must

submit all claims incurred during that period within 90 days of the date of your termination.

What Health Care Expenses

Qualify HIA Reimbursement?

You can use your HIA to pay for or be reimbursed for a variety of health care goods and services. A few examples of qualified expenses include:

• Prescription drugs

• Physician and specialist visits • Lab and x-rays

• Dental care • Orthodontia • Surgery • Therapy

• Vision correction surgery

A few examples of non-qualified health care expenses

include:

• Babysitting and child care for a healthy baby (use your Dependent Daycare FSA instead) • Elective cosmetic surgery

• Non-prescription drugs, medicines and supplements (unless prescribed)

• Health club dues

The complete list of qualified and non-qualified medical

A Health Incentive Account (HIA):

• Is funded by the hospital based on your participation in the HealthySteps to Wellness program (you cannot make contributions) • Is 100% owned by you

• Does not accumulate from year to year • Funds not used during the year will be forfeited

(17)

Flexible Spending Accounts

Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs) allow you to set aside pre-tax money each year to pay for certain eligible health care and dependent daycare expenses.

Your contributions are automatically deducted from your paycheck before taxes are withheld, which means your taxable income will be lower.

Health Care FSA — Contribute up

to $2,500 in 2015

• Can be used to pay for medical, dental and vision expenses incurred on or before December 31, 2015, by you, your spouse or eligible dependents. (You can use your FSA funds to pay for your eligible domestic partner’s medical expenses only if they are considered a tax dependent under IRS qualifications.)

• You may be reimbursed for eligible expenses at any time during the plan year, up to the amount you elected for the year, even if you have not yet contributed that amount to the FSA. You must submit all claims incurred for the 2015 calendar year by March 15, 2016.

Dependent Daycare FSA —

Contribute up to $5,000 in 2015

• Can be used to pay for child care up to age 13, or elder care while you are at work.

• Submit claims for reimbursement of eligible expenses, up to the amount of contributions available in your account at the time of submission.

• The IRS limits your annual contributions to the Dependent Daycare FSA to $5,000 or less depending on your marital and tax-filing status.

(18)

Additional Benefits

In addition to providing coverage for your health care needs, the hospital also offers you and your family additional benefits to help you protect your finances and manage your life. Some of the benefits below are automatic and paid for by the hospital. You may elect additional coverage, such as Supplemental Life, AD&D, and Group Legal.

www.healthysteps4u.org.

Life Insurance

You may also increase or decrease supplemental Life coverage for yourself or your spouse/eligible domestic partner. If you would like to change your Supplemental Life or spouse/eligible domestic partner coverage, you must do so during Open Enrollment.

Supplemental Life Insurance for your spouse/eligible domestic partner is available in increments of $1,000 up to $200,000 and cannot exceed 100% of the employee’s Life Insurance approved value. You pay the cost for this coverage with after-tax dollars. The cost is based on your age and the amount of coverage elected.

Basic Life

The hospital provides Basic Life coverage of one times salary ($50,000 maximum) at no cost to you.

Please note if your annual pay changes (due to a change in your hourly rate or scheduled hours), Life amounts will automatically increase or decrease.

This legal plan relies on a network of over 11,000 participating attorneys in private practice or participating law firms to provide covered services.
