Annual Benefit Enrollment Benefit Updates - What’s New:
If you currently participate in a Healthcare or Dependent Care FSA, you MUST re-elect a new contribution amount every year to continue to participate. IT DOES NOT ROLL OVER! Eligible expenses must be incurred within the plan year (10/01/18 to 8/31/19) and contributions are “use it or lose it” unless your district has a rollover or grace period. You can view your account balance using the CHECK FSA link on the benefit website or use the NBS smart phone app. The medical reimbursement annual maximum is $2,650 per plan year.
The cancer coverage offers two options to you with optional ICU coverage. Cancer insurance is designed to be a supplement and pays for many costs not covered by your major medical plan. Pre-existing limitations apply.
You have the option to choose from three dental plans through Cigna: PPO High plan, MAC plan, or the DHMO plan. The High plan offers you the flexibility to select your own provider and includes orthodontia for children. The MAC plan will provide more benefits on Basic/Major care than the High plan but only if you use an In-Network provider. The DHMO does not have any out of network benefits. If you would like to change your Primary Care dentist, please reach out to Cigna directly at 800-244-6224. All DHMO services are paid per the plan schedule so there are no surprise costs and there are no maximums on the DHMO plan.
Enrollment assistance is available by calling Financial Benefit Services at 866-914-5202 to speak to an enrollment representative Monday-Thursday, 8 AM-5:30 PM & Friday 8 AM3 PM. Bilingual assistance is available! Update your profile information: home address, phone numbers, email. IMPORTANT!! Due to the Affordable Care Act (ACA) reporting requirements, please add your dependent’s social security numbers and date of birth in the HUB. If you have questions, please contact your Benefits Administrator.

Section 125 Cafeteria Plan Guidelines A Cafeteria plan enables you to save money by using pre-tax dollars to pay for eligible group insurance premiums sponsored and offered by your employer. Enrollment is automatic unless you decline this benefit. Elections made during annual enrollment will become effective on the plan effective date and will remain in effect during the entire plan year.
Changes in benefit elections can occur only if you experience a qualifying event. You must present proof of a qualifying event to your Benefit office within 31 days of your qualifying event and meet with your Benefit/HR office to complete and sign the necessary paperwork in order to make a benefit election change. Benefit changes must be consistent with the qualifying event.
CHANGES IN STATUS (CIS):
QUALIFYING EVENTS
Marital Status
A change in marital status includes marriage, death of a spouse, divorce or annulment (legal separation is not recognized in all states).
Change in Number of Tax Dependents
A change in number of dependents includes the following: birth, adoption and placement for adoption. You can add existing dependents not previously enrolled whenever a dependent gains eligibility as a result of a valid change in status event.
Change in Status of Employment Affecting Coverage Eligibility
Change in employment status of the employee, or a spouse or dependent of the employee, that affects the individual's eligibility under an employer's plan includes commencement or termination of employment.
An event that causes an employee's dependent to satisfy or cease to satisfy coverage requirements Gain/Loss of Dependents' under an employer's plan may include change in age, student, marital, employment or tax dependent Eligibility Status status. If a judgment, decree, or order from a divorce, annulment or change in legal custody requires that you provide accident or health coverage for your dependent child (including a foster child who is your dependent), you may change your election to provide coverage for the dependent child. If the order Judgment/Decree/Order requires that another individual (including your spouse and former spouse) covers the dependent child and provides coverage under that individual's plan, you may change your election to revoke coverage only for that dependent child and only if the other individual actually provides the coverage. Eligibility for Government Programs
Gain or loss of Medicare/Medicaid coverage may trigger a permitted election change.

Employees must confirm on each benefit screen (medical, dental, vision, etc.) that each dependent to be covered is selected in order to be included in the coverage for that particular benefit.
If the insurance carrier provides ID cards, you can expect to receive those 3-4 weeks after your effective date.

About this Benefit A Cafeteria Plan is designed to take advantage of Section 125 of the Internal Revenue Code. It allows you to pay certain qualified expenses on a pre-tax basis, thereby reducing your taxable income. You can set aside a pre-established amount of money per plan year in a Healthcare Flexible Spending Account (FSA). Funds allocated to a healthcare FSA must be used during the plan year or are forfeited unless your plan contains a $500 rollover or grace period provision.
Unlimited FSA (Non HSA Compatible) The funds in the unlimited healthcare FSA can be used to pay for eligible medical expenses like deductibles, co-payments, orthodontics, glasses and contacts.
This is a general overview of your plan benefits. If the terms of this outline differ from your policy, the policy will govern. Additional plan details on covered expenses, limitations and exclusions are included in the summary plan description located on the 12 ESC Region 11 EBC Benefits Website: www.region11bc.com
FSA (Flexible Spending Account) What is a Flexible Spending Account? A Flexible Spending Account allows you to save money by paying out-of-pocket health and/or dependent care related expenses with pre-tax dollars. Your contributions are deducted from your pay before taxes are withheld and your account is up fronted with an annual amount. Because you are taxed on a lower amount of pay, you pay less in taxes and you have more to spend.
How does a Flexible Spending Account Benefit Me?
How To Receive Your Dependent Care Reimbursement Faster. A Direct Deposit form is available on the Benefits Website which will help you get reimbursed quicker!
What Happens If I Don’t Use All of My Funds by The End of the Plan Year (August 31st)?
A Cafeteria plan enables you to save money on group insurance, health-related expenses, and dependent-care expenses. You may save as much as 35 percent on the cost of each benefit option! Eligible expenses must be incurred within the plan year and contributions are use-it-or- lose-it. Remember to retain all your receipts.
Eligible expenses must be incurred within the plan year and contributions are use-it-or- lose-it unless your district offers a rollover or grace period. Remember to retain all your receipts.

Definition of Disability
Covered Earnings
“Disability” or “Disabled” means that, solely because of a covered injury or sickness, you are unable to perform the material duties of your regular occupation and you are unable to earn 80% or more of your indexed earnings from working in your regular occupation. After benefits have been payable for 24 months, you are considered disabled if solely due to your injury or sickness, you are unable to perform the material duties of any occupation for which you are (or may reasonably become) qualified by education, training or experience, and you are unable to earn 80% or more of your indexed earnings. We will require proof of earnings and continued disability.
“Covered Earnings” means your wages or salary, not including bonuses, commissions, and other extra compensation.
When Coverage Takes Effect Your coverage takes effect on the later of the policy’s effective date, the date you become eligible, the date we receive your completed enrollment form, or the date you authorize any necessary payroll deductions. If you’re not actively at work on the date your coverage would otherwise take effect, your coverage will take effect on the date you return to work. If you have to submit evidence of good health, your coverage takes effect on the date we agree, in writing, to cover you. 29
Educator Disability Effects of Other Income Benefits
Termination of Disability Benefits
This plan is structured to prevent your total benefits and postdisability earnings from equaling or exceeding pre-disability earnings. Therefore, we reduce this plan’s benefits by Other Income Benefits payable to you, your dependents, or a qualified third party on behalf of you or your dependents. Disability benefits maybe reduced by amounts received through Social Security disability benefits payable to you, your dependents, or a qualified third party on behalf of you or your dependents. Your disability benefits will not be reduced by any Social Security disability benefits you are not receiving as long as you cooperate fully in efforts to obtain them and agree to repay any overpayment when and if you do receive them. Disability benefits will also be reduced by amounts received through other government programs, sick leave, employer’s sabbatical leave, employer’s assault leave plan, employer funded retirement benefits, workers’ compensation, franchise/group insurance, auto no-fault, and damages for wage loss. For details, see your outline of coverage, policy certificate, or your employer’s summary plan description. Note: Some of the Other Income Benefits, as defined in the group policy, will not be considered until after disability benefits are payable for 12 months.
Your benefits will terminate when your Disability ceases, when your benefit duration period is exceeded, or on the following events: (1) the date you earn from any occupation more than 80% of your Covered Earnings, or the date you fail to cooperate with us in a rehabilitation plan, or transitional work arrangement, or the administration of the claim.
Earnings While Disabled During the first 24 months that benefits are payable, benefits will be reduced if benefits plus income from employment exceeds 100% of pre-disability Covered Earnings. After that, benefits will be reduced by 50% of earnings from employment.
Limited Benefit Period Disabilities caused by or contributed to by any one or more of the following conditions are subject to a lifetime limit of 24 months for outpatient treatment: Anxiety-disorders, delusional (paranoid) or depressive disorders, eating disorders, mental illness, somatoform disorders (including psychosomatic illnesses) ,alcoholism, drug addiction or abuse. Benefits are payable during periods of hospital confinement for these conditions for hospitalizations lasting more than 14 consecutive days that occur before the 24-month lifetime outpatient limit is exhausted.
Pre-existing Condition Limitation Benefits are not payable for medical conditions for which you incurred expenses, took prescription drugs, received medical treatment, care or services (including diagnostic measures,) during the 3 months just prior to the most recent effective date of insurance. Benefits are not payable for any disability resulting from a pre-existing condition unless the disability occurs after you have been insured under this plan for at least 12 months after your most recent effective date of insurance.
30
Rehabilitation Requirement To be eligible for Disability benefits under this plan, you may be required to participate in a rehabilitation plan at the sole discretion and expense of the insurance company or company administering benefits under this plan. If you fail to fully cooperate with the rehabilitation plan, no Disability benefits will be paid, and coverage will end. For details, see your Certificate of Insurance.

The policy/certificate and the Internal Cancer coverage under the Critical Illness Rider will not be issued to anyone who has been diagnosed or treated for Cancer in the previous ten years.

Base Policy
All diagnosis of cancer must be positively diagnosed by a legally licensed doctor of medicine certified by the American Board of Pathology or American Board of Osteopathic Pathology. This policy/certificate pays only for loss resulting from definitive cancer treatment including direct extension, metastatic spread or recurrence. Proof must be submitted to support each claim. This policy/certificate also covers other conditions or diseases directly caused by cancer or the treatment of cancer. No benefits are payable for any covered person for any loss incurred during the first year of this policy/certificate as a result of a Pre-Existing Condition. A PreExisting Condition is a specified disease for which, within 12 months prior to the covered person’s effective date of coverage, medical advice, consultation or treatment, including prescribed medications, was recommended by or received from a member of the medical profession, or for which symptoms manifested in such a manner as would cause an ordinarily prudent person to seek diagnosis, medical advice or treatment. Pre-Existing Conditions specifically named or described as excluded in any part of this contract are never covered. This policy/certificate contains a 30-day waiting period during which no benefits will be paid under this policy/certificate. If any covered person has a specified disease diagnosed before the end of the 30-day period immediately following the covered person’s effective date, coverage for that person will apply only to loss that is incurred after one year from the effective date of such person’s coverage. If any covered person is diagnosed as having a specified disease during the 30-day period immediately following the effective date, you may elect to void the policy/certificate from the beginning and receive a full refund of premium. All benefits payable only up to the maximum amount listed in the schedule of benefits in the policy/certificate. A Hospital is not an institution which is primarily a place for alcoholics or drug addicts; the aged; a nursing, rest or convalescent nursing home; a mental institution or sanitarium; a facility contracted for or operated by the United States Government for treatment of members or ex-members of the armed forces (unless You are legally required to pay for services rendered in the absence of insurance); or, a long-term nursing unit or geriatrics ward. 34
