Annual Benefit Enrollment

SUMMARY PAGES

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 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.

Gain/Loss of Dependents’ Eligibility Status

An event that causes an employee’s dependent to satisfy or cease to satisfy coverage requirements under an employer’s plan may include change in age, student, marital, employment or tax dependent status.

Judgment/ Decree/Order

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 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 6

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 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.

Gain or loss of Medicare/Medicaid coverage may trigger a permitted election change.

Please note, limits and exclusions may apply when obtaining coverage as a married couple or when obtaining coverage for dependents. Potential Spouse Coverage Limitations: When enrolling in coverage, please keep in mind that some benefits may not allow you to cover your spouse as a dependent if your spouse is enrolled for coverage as an employee under the same employer. Review the applicable plan documents, contact Financial Benefit Services, or contact the insurance carrier for additional information on spouse eligibility. FSA/HSA Limitations: Please note, in general, per IRS regulations, married couples may not enroll in both a Flexible Spending Account (FSA) and a Health Savings Account (HSA). If your spouse is covered under an FSA that reimburses for medical expenses then you and your spouse are not HSA eligible, even if you would not use your spouse’s FSA to reimburse your expenses. However, there are some exceptions to the general limitation regarding specific types of FSAs. To obtain more information on whether you can enroll in a specific type of FSA or HSA as a married couple, please reach out to the FSA and/or HSA provider prior to enrolling or reach out to your tax advisor for further guidance. Potential Dependent Coverage Limitations: When enrolling for dependent coverage, please keep in mind that some benefits may not allow you to cover your eligible dependents if they are enrolled for coverage as an employee under the same employer. Review the applicable plan documents, contact Financial Benefit Services, or contact the insurance carrier for additional information on dependent eligibility. Disclaimer: You acknowledge that you have read the limitations and exclusions that may apply to obtaining spouse and dependent coverage, including limitations and exclusions that may apply to enrollment in Flexible Spending Accounts and Health Savings Accounts as a married couple. You, the enrollee, shall hold harmless, defend, and indemnify Financial Benefit Services, LLC from any and all claims, actions, suits, charges, and judgments whatsoever that arise out of the enrollee’s enrollment in spouse and/or dependent coverage, including enrollment in Flexible Spending Accounts and Health Savings Accounts. If your dependent is disabled, coverage may be able to continue past the maximum age under certain plans. If you have a disabled dependent who is reaching an ineligible age, you must provide a physician’s statement confirming your dependent’s disability. Contact your Benefit Office to request a continuation of coverage.

With TRS-ActiveCare, the Big Country is covered by the biggest network of doctors and hospitals in Texas.

TRS-ActiveCare Plan Highlights 2023-24 Learn the Terms. • Premium: The monthly amount you pay for health care coverage. • Deductible: The annual amount for medical expenses you’re responsible to pay before your plan begins to pay its portion. • Copay: The set amount you pay for a covered service at the time you receive it. The amount can vary by the type of service. • Coinsurance: The portion you’re required to pay for services after you meet your deductible. It’s often a specified percentage of the costs; i.e. you pay 20% while the health care plan pays 80%. • Out-of-Pocket Maximum: The maximum amount you pay each year for medical costs. After reaching the out-of-pocket 19 maximum, the plan pays 100% of allowable charges for covered services.

Get your kicks on Route 66 and your reliable health care on TRS-ActiveCare plans.

TRS-ActiveCare Plan Highlights 2023-24 Learn the Terms. • Premium: The monthly amount you pay for health care coverage. • Deductible: The annual amount for medical expenses you’re responsible to pay before your plan begins to pay its portion. • Copay: The set amount you pay for a covered service at the time you receive it. The amount can vary by the type of service. • Coinsurance: The portion you’re required to pay for services after you meet your deductible. It’s often a specified percentage of the costs; i.e. you pay 20% while the health care plan pays 80%. • Out-of-Pocket Maximum: The maximum amount you pay each year for medical costs. After reaching the out-of-pocket 31 maximum, the plan pays 100% of allowable charges for covered services.

TRS-ActiveCare’s vast network of doctors and hospitals makes a west Texas dust storm look small.

TRS-ActiveCare Plan Highlights 2023-24 Learn the Terms. • Premium: The monthly amount you pay for health care coverage. • Deductible: The annual amount for medical expenses you’re responsible to pay before your plan begins to pay its portion. • Copay: The set amount you pay for a covered service at the time you receive it. The amount can vary by the type of service. • Coinsurance: The portion you’re required to pay for services after you meet your deductible. It’s often a specified percentage of the costs; i.e. you pay 20% while the health care plan pays 80%. • Out-of-Pocket Maximum: The maximum amount you pay each year for medical costs. After reaching the out-of-pocket 37 maximum, the plan pays 100% of allowable charges for covered services.

TRS-ActiveCare has a network of doctors and hospitals that span all the way to the Rio Grande.

TRS-ActiveCare Plan Highlights 2023-24 Learn the Terms. • Premium: The monthly amount you pay for health care coverage. • Deductible: The annual amount for medical expenses you’re responsible to pay before your plan begins to pay its portion. • Copay: The set amount you pay for a covered service at the time you receive it. The amount can vary by the type of service. • Coinsurance: The portion you’re required to pay for services after you meet your deductible. It’s often a specified percentage of the costs; i.e. you pay 20% while the health care plan pays 80%. • Out-of-Pocket Maximum: The maximum amount you pay each year for medical costs. After reaching the out-of-pocket 49 maximum, the plan pays 100% of allowable charges for covered services.

Health Savings Account (HSA) EECU

EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

ABOUT HSA A Health Savings Account (HSA) is a personal savings account where the money can only be used for eligible medical expenses. Unlike a flexible spending account (FSA), the money rolls over year to year however only those funds that have been deposited in your account can be used. Contributions to a Health Savings Account can only be used if you are also enrolled in a High Deductible Health Care Plan (HDHP). For full plan details, please visit your benefit website: www.wtxebc.com

A Health Savings Account (HSA) is more than a way to help you and your family cover health care costs – it is also a taxexempt tool to supplement your retirement savings and cover health expenses during retirement. An HSA can provide the funds to help pay current health care expenses as well as future health care costs. A type of personal savings account, an HSA is always yours even if you change health plans or jobs. The money in your HSA (including interest and investment earnings) grows tax-free and spends tax-free if used to pay for qualified medical expenses. There is no “use it or lose it” rule — you do not lose your money if you do not spend it in the calendar year — and there are no vesting requirements or forfeiture provisions. The account automatically rolls over year after year.

HSA Eligibility You are eligible to open and contribute to an HSA if you are: • Enrolled in an HSA-eligible HDHP (High Deductible Health Plan) • Not covered by another plan that is not a qualified HDHP, such as your spouse’s health plan • Not enrolled in a Health Care Flexible Spending Account, nor should your spouse be contributing towards a Health Care Flexible Spending Account • Not eligible to be claimed as a dependent on someone else’s tax return • Not enrolled in Medicare or TRICARE • Not receiving Veterans Administration benefits You can use the money in your HSA to pay for qualified medical expenses now or in the future. You can also use HSA funds to pay health care expenses for your dependents, even if they are not covered under your HDHP.

Maximum Contributions Your HSA contributions may not exceed the annual maximum amount established by the Internal Revenue Service. The annual contribution maximum for 2023 is based on the coverage option you elect: • Individual – $3,850 • Family (filing jointly) – $7,750 You decide whether to use the money in your account to pay for qualified expenses or let it grow for future use. If you are 55 or older, you may make a yearly catch-up contribution of up to $1,000 to your HSA. If you turn 55 at any time during the plan year, you are eligible to make the catch-up contribution for the entire plan year. 54


Health Savings Account (HSA) EECU

EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

Opening an HSA If you meet the eligibility requirements, you may open an HSA administered by EECU. You will receive a debit card to manage your HSA account reimbursements. Keep in mind, available funds are limited to the balance in your HSA.

Important HSA Information •

Always ask your health care provider to file claims with your medical provider so network discounts can be applied. You can pay the provider with your HSA debit card based on the balance due after discount. • You, not your employer, are responsible for maintaining ALL records and receipts for HSA reimbursements in the event of an IRS audit. You may open an HSA at the financial institution of your choice, but only accounts opened through EECU are eligible for automatic payroll deduction and company contributions.

How to Use your HSA •

Online/Mobile: Sign-in for 24/7 account access to check your balance, pay bills and more.

Call/Text: (817) 882-0800. EECU’s dedicated member service representatives are available to assist you with any questions. Their hours of operation are Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. CT, Saturday 9:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m. CT and closed on Sunday.

Lost/Stolen Debit Card: Call the 24/7 debit card hotline at (800) 333-9934

WHO IS ELIGIBLE? You are eligible for this insurance if you are an active full-time employee who works at least 20 hours per week on a regularly scheduled basis. Your spouse and child(ren) are also eligible for coverage. Any child(ren) must be under age 26. CAN I INSURE MY DOMESTIC OR CIVIL UNION PARTNER? Yes. Any reference to “spouse” in this document includes your domestic partner, civil union partner or equivalent, as recognized and allowed by applicable law. AM I GUARANTEED COVERAGE? This insurance is guaranteed issue coverage – it is available without having to provide information about your or your family’s health. All you have to do is elect the coverage to become insured. Premiums will be automatically paid through payroll deduction, as authorized by you during the enrollment process. This ensures you don’t have to worry about writing a check or missing a payment. WHEN CAN I ENROLL? You may enroll during any scheduled enrollment period or within 31 days of the date you have a change in family status.

WHEN DOES THIS INSURANCE BEGIN? Insurance will become effective in accordance with the terms of the certificate (usually the first day of the month following the date you elect coverage). You must be actively at work with your employer on the day your coverage takes effect. Your spouse and child(ren) must be performing normal activities and not be confined (at home or in a hospital/care facility), unless already insured with the prior carrier. WHEN DOES THIS INSURANCE END? This insurance will end when you or your dependents no longer satisfy the applicable eligibility conditions, premium is unpaid, you are no longer actively working, you leave your employer, or the coverage is no longer offered. CAN I KEEP THIS INSURANCE IF I LEAVE MY EMPLOYER OR AM NO LONGER A MEMBER OF THIS GROUP? Yes, you can take this coverage with you. Coverage may be continued for you and your dependent(s) under a group portability policy. Your spouse may also continue insurance in certain circumstances. The specific terms and qualifying events for portability are described in the certificate.

Critical Illness Insurance CHUBB

EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

ABOUT CRITICAL ILLNESS Critical illness insurance can be used towards medical or other expenses. It provides a lump sum benefit payable directly to the insured upon diagnosis of a covered condition or event, like a heart attack or stroke. The money can also be used for non-medical costs related to the illness, including transportation, child care, etc. For full plan details, please visit your benefit website: www.wtxebc.com Heart attacks and strokes happen every day and often unexpectedly. They don’t give you time to prepare and can take a serious toll on both your physical and financial well-being. Chubb Critical Illness pays cash benefits directly to you that you can use to help with your bills, your mortgage, your rent, your childcare— you name it—so you can focus on recovery. No benefit will be paid for a date of diagnosis that occurs prior to the coverage effective date. Covered individuals must be treatment free from cancer for 12 months prior to diagnosis date and in complete remission. There is no pre-existing condition limitation. All amounts are Guaranteed Issue- no medical questions are required for coverage to be issued.

Flexible Spending Account (FSA) NBS

EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

Dependent Care FSA Guidelines • •

Overnight camps are not eligible for reimbursement (only day camps can be considered). If your child turns 13 midyear, you may only request reimbursement for the part of the year when the child is under age 13. You may request reimbursement for care of a spouse or dependent of any age who spends at least eight hours a day in your home and is mentally or physically incapable of self-care. The dependent care provider cannot be your child under age 19 or anyone claimed as a dependent on your income taxes.

• •

Important FSA Rules •

The maximum per plan year you can contribute to a Health Care FSA is $3,050. The maximum per plan year you can contribute to a Dependent Care FSA is $5,000 when filing jointly or head of household and $2,500 when married filing separately. You cannot change your election during the year unless you experience a Qualifying Life Event. You can continue to file claims incurred during the plan year for another 30 days (up until date). Your Health Care FSA debit card can be used for health care expenses only. It cannot be used to pay for dependent care expenses. The IRS has amended the “use it or lose it rule” to allow you to carry-over up to $610 in your Health Care FSA into the next plan year. The carry-over rule does not apply to your Dependent Care FSA.

• • • •

Over-the-Counter Item Rule Reminder (OTC)

Health care reform legislation requires that certain over-the-counter (OTC) items require a prescription to qualify as an eligible Health Care FSA expense. You will only need to obtain a one-time prescription for the current plan year. You can continue to purchase your regular prescription medications with your FSA debit card. However, the FSA debit card may not be used as payment for an OTC item, even when accompanied by a prescription. Flexible Spending Accounts Annual Contribution Limits
