• Changes, additions or drops may be made only during the annual enrollment period without a qualifying event.
• Employees must review their personal information and verify that dependents they wish to provide coverage for are included in the dependent profile. Additionally, you must notify your employer of any discrepancy in personal and/or benefit information.
• 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.
New Hire Enrollment
All new hire enrollment elections must be completed in the online enrollment system within the first 30 days of benefit eligibility employment. Failure to complete elections during this timeframe will result in the forfeiture of coverage.
Q&A
Who do I contact with Questions?
For supplemental benefit questions, you can contact your Benefits Office or you can call Higginbotham Public Sector at (866) 914-5202 for assistance.
Where can I find forms?
For benefit summaries and claim forms, go to your benefit website: www.mybenefitshub.com/ cscharteracademy. Click the benefit plan you need information on (i.e., Dental) and you can find the forms you need under the Benefits and Forms section.
How can I find a Network Provider?
For benefit summaries and claim forms, go to the Colorado Springs Charter Academy benefit website: www.mybenefitshub.com/cscharteracademy. Click on the benefit plan you need information on (i.e., Dental) and you can find provider search links under the Quick Links section.
When will I receive ID cards?
If the insurance carrier provides ID cards, you can expect to receive those 3-4 weeks after your effective date. For most dental and vision plans, you can login to the carrier website and print a temporary ID card or simply give your provider the insurance company’s phone number and they can call and verify your coverage if you do not have an ID card at that time. If you do not receive your ID card, you can call the carrier’s customer service number to request another card.
If the insurance carrier provides ID cards, but there are no changes to the plan, you typically will not receive a new ID card each year.
What is Guaranteed Coverage?
The amount of coverage you can elect without answering any medical questions or taking a health exam. Guaranteed coverage is only available during initial eligibility period. Actively-at-work and/or preexisting condition exclusion provisions do apply, as applicable by carrier.
What is a Pre-Existing Conditions?
Applies to any illness, injury or condition for which the participant has been under the care of a health care provider, taken prescriptions drugs or is under a health care provider’s orders to take drugs, or received medical care or services (including diagnostic and/or consultation services).
Annual Benefit Enrollment
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):
Marital Status
Change in Number of Tax Dependents
Change in Status of Employment Affecting Coverage Eligibility
Gain/Loss of Dependents’ Eligibility Status
Judgment/ Decree/Order
Eligibility for Government Programs
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 30 days of your qualifying event and meet with your Benefits 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.
QUALIFYING EVENTS
A change in marital status includes marriage, death of a spouse, divorce or annulment (legal separation is not recognized in all states).
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 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 under an employer’s plan may include change in age, student, marital, employment or tax dependent 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 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.
Gain or loss of Medicare/Medicaid coverage may trigger a permitted election change.
Annual Benefit Enrollment
Employee Eligibility Requirements
Medical and Supplemental Benefits: Eligible employees must work 30 or more regularly scheduled hours each work week.
Eligible employees must be actively at work on the plan effective date for new benefits to be effective, meaning you are physically capable of performing the functions of your job on the first day of work concurrent with the plan effective date. For example, if your 2024 benefits become effective on September 1, 2024, you must be actively-at-work on September 1, 2024 to be eligible for your new benefits.
Dependent Eligibility Requirements
Dependent Eligibility: You can cover eligible dependent
children under a benefit that offers dependent coverage, provided you participate in the same benefit, through the maximum age listed below. Dependents cannot be double covered by married spouses within the district as both employees and dependents.
Actively-at-Work
You are performing your regular occupation for the employer on a full-time basis, either at one of the employer’s usual places of business or at some location to which the employer’s business requires you to travel. If you will not be actively at work beginning 9/1/2024 please notify your benefits administrator.
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 Higginbotham Public Sector, 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 Higginbotham Public Sector, 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 Higginbotham Public Sector 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 Benefits Office to request a continuation of coverage.

Important Questions Answers
What is the overall deductible ? Network : $6,100 Individual / $12,200 Family Per calendar year.
Are there services covered before you meet your deductible ?
Are there other deductibles for specific services?
What is the out-of-pocket limit for this plan ?
What is not included in the out-of-pocket limit?
Will you pay less if you use a network provider?
Do you need a referral to see a specialist?
Yes. Preventive care is covered before you meet your deductible
No.
Why This Matters:
Generally, you must pay all of the costs from providers up to the deductible amount before this plan begins to pay. If you have other family members on the plan, each family member must meet their own individual deductible until the total amount of deductible expenses paid by all family members meets the overall family deductible .
This plan covers some items and services even if you haven’t yet met the deductible amount. But a copayment or coinsurance may apply. For example, this plan covers certain preventive services without cost sharing and before you meet your deductible See a list of covered preventive services at www.healthcare.gov/coverage/preventive-care-benefits/.
You don’t have to meet deductibles for specific services.
Network : $7,750 Individual / $15,500 Family The out-of-pocket limit is the most you could pay in a year for covered services. If you have other family members in this plan, they have to meet their own out-of-pocket limits until the overall family out-of-pocket limit has been met.
Premiums , balance-billing charges (unless balanced billing is prohibited), and health care this plan doesn’t cover.
Yes. See www.welcometouhc.com or call 1-855-828-7715 for a list of network providers

Important Questions Answers
What is the overall deductible ?
Are there services covered before you meet your deductible ?
Network : $1,000 Individual / $2,000 Family out-of-Network : $7,500 Individual / $15,000 Family Per calendar year.
Yes. Preventive care and categories with a copay are covered before you meet your deductible
Are there other deductibles for specific services? No.
What is the out-of-pocket limit for this plan ?
What is not included in the out-of-pocket limit?
Will you pay less if you use a network provider?
Do you need a referral to see a specialist?
Network : $6,950 Individual / $13,900 Family out-of-Network : $15,000 Individual / $30,000 Family
Premiums , balance-billing charges (unless balanced billing is prohibited), health care this plan doesn’t cover and penalties for failure to obtain preauthorization for services.
Yes. See www.welcometouhc.com or call 1-800-782-3740 for a list of network providers
Why This Matters:
Generally, you must pay all of the costs from providers up to the deductible amount before this plan begins to pay. If you have other family members on the plan, each family member must meet their own individual deductible until the total amount of deductible expenses paid by all family members meets the overall family deductible .
This plan covers some items and services even if you haven’t yet met the deductible amount. But a copayment or coinsurance may apply. For example, this plan covers certain preventive services without cost sharing and before you meet your deductible See a list of covered preventive services at www.healthcare.gov/coverage/preventive-care-benefits/.
You don’t have to meet deductibles for specific services.
The out-of-pocket limit is the most you could pay in a year for covered services. If you have other family members in this plan, they have to meet their own out-of-pocket limits until the overall family out-of-pocket limit has been met.
Even though you pay these expenses, they don’t count toward the out-of-pocket limit
This plan uses a provider network You will pay less if you use a provider in the plan’s network You will pay the most if you use an out-of-network provider , and you might receive a bill from a provider for the difference between the provider’s charge and what your plan pays (balance billing). Be aware, your network provider might use an out-of-network provider for some services (such as lab work). Check with your provider before you get services.
No.
You can see the specialist you choose without a referral

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.mybenefitshub.com/cscharteracademy
A Health Savings Account (HSA) is more than a way to help you and your family cover health care costs – it is also a tax-exempt 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 taxfree 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 2024 is based on the coverage option you elect:
• Individual – $4,150
• Family (filing jointly) – $8,300
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.
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.
Hospital Cash
It’s not easy to pay hospital bills, especially if you have a high-deductible medical plan. Chubb Hospital Cash pays money directly to you if you are hospitalized so you can focus on your recovery. And since the cash goes directly to you, there are no restrictions on how you use your money.

Traditional LTD and STD Disability - Definitions
What is disability insurance? Disability insurance protects one of your most valuable assets, your paycheck. This insurance will replace a portion of your income in the event that you become physically unable to work due to sickness or injury for an extended period of time.
Pre-Existing Condition Limitations - Please note that all plans will include pre-existing condition limitations that could impact you if you are a first-time enrollee in your employer’s disability plan. This includes during your initial new hire enrollment. Please review your plan details to find more information about pre-existing condition limitations.
How do I choose which plan to enroll in during my open enrollment?
You will enroll in Long Term and Short Term Disability on two separate pages during your open enrollment walkthrough. Generally your short term coverage and long term coverage work together so that once your short term coverage ends, at that time your long term coverage would begin if you are still disabled and approved to remain on your claim. In other words, your short term coverage may continue for up to 12 weeks and your long term coverage begins the 13th week.
Your short term coverage will generally be a weekly benefit. This is the maximum amount of money you will receive from the carrier on a weekly basis once your disability claim is approved by the carrier. This is generally a flat percentage of your salary.
Your long term coverage will generally be a monthly benefit. This is the maximum amount of money you will receive from the carrier on a monthly basis once your disability claim is approved by the carrier. This is generally a flat percentage of your salary.
