QUALIFICATIONS & IMPORTANT INFO THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW

QUALIFICATIONS:

•Employees must work 20 hours or more per week.

IMPORTANT FACTS:

•The plan year for Anthem Health, Anthem Dental, UnitedHealthcare Vision, Health Savings Accounts, Dependent Care Flexible Spending Accounts, Colonial Insurance products, and Legal Resources Pre-Paid Legal Plan lasts from July 1, 2023 through June 30, 2024.

• Deductions for Anthem Health, Anthem Dental, and UnitedHealthcare Vision will begin June 2023. Deductions for Health Savings Accounts, and Dependent Care Flexible Spending Accounts, and Colonial Insurance products will begin July 2023. The Legal Resources Pre-Paid Legal plan is available by Direct Billing only. No deductions will be taken via payroll deduction.

•Your employer offers an Employee Assistance Program (EAP) for you and your eligible family members. An EAP is an employer-sponsored benefit that offers confidential support and resources for personal or work-related challenges and concerns. Please see the EAP pages of this benefit booklet for more details and contact information.

•If signing up for any coverage on your spouse and/or children, please have their dates of birth and social security numbers available when speaking with the Benefits Representative.

•If you will be receiving a new debit card, whether you are a new participant or to replace your expired card, please be aware that it may take up to 30 days following your plan effective date for your card to arrive. Your card will be delivered by mail in a plain white envelope. During this time you may use manual claim forms for eligible expenses. Please note that your debit card is good through the expiration date printed on the card.

•Elections made during this enrollment period CANNOT BE CHANGED AFTER THE ENROLLMENT PERIOD unless there is a family status change as defined by the Internal Revenue Code. Examples of a family status change are: marriage, divorce, death of a spouse or child, birth or adoption of a child, termination or commencement of a spouse's employment, or the transition of spouse's employment from full-time to part-time, or vice-versa. Once a family status change has occurred, an employee has 30 days to notify the Pierce Group Benefits Service Center at 1-800-387-5955 to request a change in elections.

•Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account expenses must be incurred during the Plan Year in order to be eligible for reimbursement.

•An employee has 90 days after the plan year ends to submit claims for spending account expenses that were incurred during the plan year. Please note that if employment terminates during the plan year, that employee's plan year ends the day employment ends. The employee has 90 days after the termination date to submit claims.

•With Dependent Care Flexible Spending Accounts, the maximum reimbursement you can request is equal to the current account balance in your Dependent Care account. You cannot be reimbursed more than has actually been deducted from your pay.

•As a married couple, one spouse cannot be enrolled in a Medical Reimbursement FSA at the same time the other opens or contributes to an HSA.

•The Health Screening Rider on the Colonial Medical Bridge plan has a 30-day waiting period for new enrollees. Coverage, therefore, will not begin until July 31, 2023.

•Additionally, some policies may include a pre-existing condition clause. Please read your policy carefully for full details.

•Please be aware there are certain coverages that may be subject to federal and state tax when premium is paid by pretax deduction or employee contribution.

•An employee taking a leave of absence, other than under the Family & Medical Leave Act, may not be eligible to re-enter the Flexible Benefits Program until the next plan year. Please contact your Benefit Administrator for more information.

Important Questions Answers

What is the overall deductible?

$1,500/person or $3,000/family for In-Network Providers

$3,000/person or $6,000/family for Non-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

Are there services covered before you meet your deductible?

Yes. Primary Care Specialist Visit. Preventive Care for InNetwork Providers. Tier 1

Tier 2 Tier 3 Tier 4 Prescription Drugs. Vision. For more information see below.

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 https://www.healthcare.gov/coverage/preventive-care-benefits/.

Are there other deductibles for specific services?

What is the out-ofpocket limit for this plan?

What is not included in the out-of-pocket limit?

Will you pay less if you use a network provider?

No.

$5,000/person or $10,000/family for In-Network Providers $10,000/person or $20,000/family for NonNetwork Providers

Premiums, balance-billing charges, and health care this plan doesn't cover.

Yes, HealthKeepers. See www.anthem.com or call (833) 592-9956 for a list of network providers. Costs may vary by site of service and how the

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

Save up to $1,500 on dependent care expenses this year!

Participating in a dependent care flexible spending account (DCA) is like receiving a 30% discount from your care provider.

How does a dependent care FSA work?

A dependent care FSA is a flexible spending account that allows you to set aside pre-tax dollars for dependent care expenses, such as daycare, that allow you to work or look for work.

You choose an annual election amount, up to $5,000 per family. The money is placed in your account via payroll deduction, in equal installments, and then used to pay for eligible dependent care expenses incurred during the plan year.

Why should I enroll in a dependent care FSA?

Child and dependent care is a large expense for many families. Millions of people rely on child care to be able to work, while others are responsible for older parents or disabled family members.

If you pay for care of dependents in order to work, you’ll want to take advantage of the savings this plan offers. Money contributed to a dependent care account is free from federal and most state taxes and remains tax-free when it is spent on eligible expenses. On average, participants enjoy a 30% taxsavings on their annual contribution. This means you could be saving up to $1,500 per year on dependent care expenses!

Qualifying Dependents*

y Your qualifying child under the age of 13

y Your spouse or qualifying adult child or relative who is physically or mentally incapable of self-care

*additional restrictions may apply. See Internal Revenue Code Section 152.

How do I use my DCA to pay for dependent care expenses?

You can use your Flex Facts Debit Card to pay your provider for eligible dependentcare expenses, or pay with your personal funds and submit a claim for reimbursement.

Cancer Insurance

How would cancer impact your way of life?

Hopefully, you and your family will never face cancer. If you do, a financial safety net can help you and your loved ones focus on what matters most — recovery.

If you were diagnosed with cancer, you could have expenses that medical insurance doesn’t cover. In addition to your regular, ongoing bills, you could have indirect treatment and recovery costs, such as child care and home health care services.

Help when you need it most

Cancer coverage from Colonial Life & Accident Insurance Company can help protect the lifestyle you’ve worked so hard to build. It provides benefits you can use to help cover:

■ Loss of income

■ Out-of-network treatment

■ Lodging and meals

■ Deductibles and co-pays

CANCER ASSIST 31

One family’s journey

Paul and Kim were preparing for their second child when they learned Paul had cancer. They quickly realized their medical insurance wouldn’t cover everything. Thankfully, Kim’s job enabled her to have a cancer insurance policy on Paul to help them with expenses.

Paul’s wellness benefit helped pay for the screening that discovered his cancer.

When the couple traveled several hundred miles from their home to a top cancer hospital, they used the policy’s lodging and transportation benefits to help with expenses.

The policy’s benefits helped with deductibles and co-pays related to Paul’s surgery and hospital stay.

With cancer insurance:

■ Coverage options are available for you and your eligible dependents.

■ Benefits are paid directly to you, unless you specify otherwise.

■ You’re paid regardless of any insurance you may have with other companies.

■ You can take coverage with you, even if you change jobs or retire.

Experimental care

Paul used his plan’s benefits to help pay for experimental treatments not covered by his medical insurance.

Follow-up evaluations

Cancer insurance provides benefits to help with cancer expenses — from diagnosis to recovery.

Optional riders

For an additional cost, you may have the option of purchasing additional riders for even more financial protection against cancer. Talk with your benefits counselor to find out which of these riders are available for you to purchase.

■ Diagnosis of cancer rider — Pays a one-time, lump-sum benefit for the initial diagnosis of cancer. You may choose a benefit amount in $1,000 increments between $1,000 and $10,000. If your dependent child is diagnosed with cancer, we will pay two and a half times ($2,500 - $25,000) the chosen benefit amount.

■ Diagnosis of cancer progressive payment rider — Provides a lump-sum payment of $50 for each month the rider has been in force and before cancer is first diagnosed.

■ Specified disease hospital confinement rider — Pays $300 per day if you or a covered family member is confined to a hospital for treatment for one of the 34 specified diseases covered under the rider.

If cancer impacts your life, you should be able to focus on getting better — not on how you’ll pay your bills. Talk with your Colonial Life benefits counselor about how cancer insurance can help provide financial security for you and your family.

PRE-EXISTING CONDITION LIMITATION

We will not pay benefits for the diagnosis of internal cancer or skin cancer that is a pre-existing condition, nor will we pay benefits for the treatment of internal cancer or skin cancer that is a pre-existing condition unless the covered person has satisfied the six-month pre-existing condition limitation period shown on the Policy Schedule.

Here are some

frequently asked questions about Colonial Life’s disability insurance:

Will my disability income payment be reduced if I have other insurance?

You’re paid regardless of any other insurance you may have with other insurance companies. Benefits are paid directly to you (unless you specify otherwise).

When am I considered totally disabled?

Totally disabled means you are:

l Unable to perform the material and substantial duties of your job;

l Not, in fact, engaged in any employment or occupation for wage or profit for which you are qualified by reason of education, training or experience; and

l Under the regular and appropriate care of a doctor.

What if I want to return to work part-time after I am totally disabled?

You may be able to return to work part-time and still receive benefits. We call this “Partial Disability.” This means you may be eligible for coverage if:

l You are unable to perform the material and substantial duties of your job for more than 20 hours per week,

l You are able to work at your job or your place of employment for 20 hours or less per week,

l Your employer will allow you to return to your job or place of employment for 20 hours or less per week; and

l You are under the regular and appropriate care of a doctor.

The total disability benefit must have been paid for at least one full month immediately prior to your being partially disabled.

When do disability benefits end?

The Total Disability Benefit will end on the policy anniversary date on or after your 70th birthday. The Hospital Confinement benefit increases when the Total Disability Benefit ends.

What is a pre-existing condition?

A pre-existing condition is when you have a sickness or physical condition for which you were treated, had medical testing, received medical advice, or had taken medication within 12 months testing, or before the effective date of your policy.

If you become disabled because of a pre-existing condition, Colonial Life will not pay for any disability period if it begins during the first 12 months the policy is in force.

What if I change employers?

If you change jobs or leave your employer, you can take your coverage with you at no additional cost. Your coverage is guaranteed renewable for life as long as you continue to pay your premiums when they are due.

Can my premium change?

You may choose the amount of coverage to meet your needs (subject to your income). You can elect more or less coverage which will change your premium. Colonial Life can change your premium only if we change it on all policies of this kind in the state where your policy was issued.

What is a covered accident or a covered sickness?

A covered accident is an accident. A covered sickness means an illness, infection, disease or any other abnormal physical condition, not caused by an injury.

A covered accident or covered sickness:

l Occurs after the effective date of the policy;

l Occurs while the policy is in force;

l Is of a type listed on the Policy Schedule; and

l Is not excluded by name or specific description in the policy.

EXCLUSIONS

We will not pay benefits for injuries received in accidents or sicknesses which are caused by or are the result of: alcoholism or drug addiction; flying; giving birth within the first nine months after the effective date of the policy; felonies or illegal occupations; having a pre-existing condition as described and limited by the policy; psychiatric or psychological condition; committing or trying to commit suicide or injuring yourself intentionally; being exposed to war or any act of war or serving in the armed forces of any country or authority.

Term Life Insurance

Life insurance protection when you need it most

Life insurance needs change as life circumstances change. You may need different coverage if you’re getting married, buying a home or having a child.

Term life insurance from Colonial Life provides protection for a specified period of time, typically offering the greatest amount of coverage for the lowest initial premium. This fact makes term life insurance a good choice for supplementing cash value coverage during life stages when obligations are higher, such as while children are younger. It’s also a good option for families on a tight budget — especially since you can convert it to a permanent cash value plan later.

With this coverage:

n A beneficiary can receive a benefit that is typically free from income tax.

n The policy’s accelerated death benefit can pay a percentage of the death benefit if the covered person is diagnosed with a terminal illness.

n You can convert it to a Colonial Life cash value insurance plan, with no proof of good health, to age 75.

n Coverage is guaranteed renewable up to age 95 as long as premiums are paid when due.

n Portability allows you to take it with you if you change jobs or retire.

Two options are available for spouse coverage at an additional cost:

1. Spouse Term Life Policy: Offers guaranteed premiums and level death benefits equivalent to those available to you –whether or not you buy a policy for yourself.

2. Spouse Term Life Rider: Add a term rider for your spouse to your policy, up to a maximum death benefit of $50,000; 10-year and 20-year are available (20-year rider only available with a 20- or 30-year term policy).

or the company.

You may add a Children’s Term Life Rider to cover all of your eligible dependent children with up to $20,000 in coverage each for one premium.

The Children’s Term Life Rider may be added to either the primary or spouse policy, not both.

Newborn and Mothers’ Health Protection Act

Group health plans and health insurance issuers generally may not, under federal law restrict benefits for any hospital length of stay in connection with childbirth for the mother or newborn child to less than 48 hours following vaginal delivery, or less than 96 hours following a cesarean section. However, federal law generally does not prohibit the mother’s or newborn’s attending provider, after consulting with the mother, from discharging the mother or newborn earlier than 48 hours (or 96 hours as applicable). In any case, plans and issuers may not, under federal law, require that a provider obtain authorization from the plan or the issuer for prescribing a length of stay not in excess of 48 hours (or 96 hours).

Women’s Health and Cancer Rights Act

In October 1998, Congress enacted the Women’s Health and Cancer Rights Act of 1998. This notice explains some important provisions of the Act. Please review this information carefully. As specified in the Women’s Health and Cancer Rights Act, a plan participant or beneficiary who elects breast reconstruction in connection with a covered mastectomy is also entitled to the following benefits: 1. All stages of reconstruction of the breast on which the mastectomy has been performed: 2. Surgery and reconstruction of the other breast to produce a symmetrical appearance; and 3. Prostheses and treatment of physical complications of the mastectomy , including lymphedemas. Health plans must provide coverage of mastectomy related benefits in a manner to determine in consultation with the attending physician and the patient. Coverage for breast reconstruction and related services may be subject to deductibles and insurance amounts that are consistent with those that apply to other benefits under the plan.

Premium Assistance Under Medicaid and the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP)

If you or your children are eligible for Medicaid or CHIP and you’re eligible for health coverage from your employer, your state may have a premium assistance program that can help pay for coverage, using funds from their Medicaid or CHIP programs. If you or your children aren’t eligible for Medicaid or CHIP, you won’t be eligible for these premium assistanceprograms but you may be able to buy individual insurance coverage through the Health Insurance Marketplace. For more information, visit www.healthcare.gov

If you or your dependents are already enrolled in Medicaid or CHIP and you live in a State listed below, contact your State Medicaid or CHIP office to find out if premium assistance is available.

If you or your dependents are NOT currently enrolled in Medicaid or CHIP, and you think you or any of your dependents might be eligible for either of these programs, contact your State Medicaid or CHIP office or dial 1-877-KIDS NOW or www.insurekidsnow.gov to find out how to apply. If you qualify, ask your state if it has a program that might help you pay the premiums for an employersponsored plan.

If you or your dependents are eligible for premium assistance under Medicaid or CHIP, as well as eligible under your employer plan, your employer must allow you to enroll in your employer plan if you aren’t already enrolled. This is called a “special enrollment” opportunity, and you must request coverage within 60 days of being determined eligible for premium assistance. If you have questions about enrolling in your employer plan, contact the Department of Labor at www.askebsa.dol.gov or call 1-866-444-EBSA (3272).

If you live in one of the following states, you maybeeligibleforassistancepayingyour employer health plan premiums. The following list of states is current as of July 31, 2020. Contact your State for more information on eligibility–

Required Notices

Introduction

You are receiving this notice because you recently gained coverage under a group health plan (the Plan). This notice has important information about your right to COBRA continuation coverage, which is a temporary extension of coverage under the Plan. This notice explains COBRA continuation coverage, when it may become available to you and your family, and what you need to do to protect your right to get it. When you become eligible for COBRA, you may also become eligible for other coverage options that may cost less than COBRA continuation coverage.

The right to COBRA continuation coverage was created by a federal law, the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (COBRA). COBRA continuation coverage can become available to you and other members of your family when group health coverage would otherwise end For more information about your rights and obligations under the Plan and under federal law, you should review the Plan’s Summary Plan Description or contact the Plan Administrator.

You may have other options available to you when you lose group health coverage. For example, you may be eligible to buy an individual plan through the Health Insurance Marketplace. By enrolling in coverage through the Marketplace, you may qualify for lower costs on your monthly premiums and lower out-of-pocket costs. Additionally, you may qualify for a 30-day special enrollment period for another group health plan for which you are eligible (such as a spouse’s plan), even if that plan generally doesn’t accept late enrollees.

What is COBRA continuation coverage?

COBRA continuation coverage is a continuation of Plan coverage when it would otherwise end because of a life event. This is also called a “qualifying event.” Specific qualifying events are listed later in this notice. After a qualifying event, COBRA continuation coverage must be offered to each person who is a “qualified beneficiary.” You, your spouse, and your dependent children could become qualified beneficiaries if coverage under the Plan is lost because of the qualifying event. Under the Plan, qualified beneficiaries who elect COBRA continuation coverage must pay for COBRA continuation coverage.

If you’re an employee, you’ll become a qualified beneficiary if you lose your coverage under the Plan because of the following qualifying events:

• Your hours of employment are reduced, or

• Your employment ends for any reason other than your gross misconduct.

If you’re the spouse of an employee, you’ll become a qualified beneficiary if you lose your coverage under the Plan because of the following qualifying events:

• Your spouse dies;

• Your spouse’s hours of employment are reduced;

• Your spouse’s employment ends for any reason other than his or her gross misconduct;

• Your spouse becomes entitled to Medicare benefits (under Part A, Part B, or both); or

• You become divorced or legally separated from your spouse.

Your dependent children will become qualified beneficiaries if they lose coverage under the Plan because of the following qualifying events:

• The parent-employee dies;

• The parent-employee’s hours of employment are reduced;

• The parent-employee’s employment ends for any reason other than his or her gross misconduct;

• The parent-employee becomes entitled to Medicare benefits (Part A, Part B, or both);

• The parents become divorced or legally separated; or

• The child stops being eligible for coverage under the Plan as a “dependent child.”

Sometimes, filing a proceeding in bankruptcy under title 11 of the United States Code can be a qualifying event. If a proceeding in bankruptcy is filed with respect to Hopewell City Public Schools, and that bankruptcy results in the loss of coverage of any retired employee covered under the Plan, the retired employee will become a qualified beneficiary. The retired employee’s spouse, surviving spouse, and dependent children will also become qualified beneficiaries if bankruptcy results in the loss of their coverage under the Plan.

When is COBRA continuation coverage available?

The Plan will offer COBRA continuation coverage to qualified beneficiaries only after the Plan Administrator has been notified that a qualifying event has occurred. The employer must notify the Plan Administrator of the following qualifying events:

• The end of employment or reduction of hours of employment;

• Death of the employee;

• Commencement of a proceeding in bankruptcy with respect to the employer; or

• The employee’s becoming entitled to Medicare benefits (under Part A, Part B, or both).

General Notice of COBRA Continuation Coverage Rights ** Continuation Coverage Rights Under COBRA**
75

For all other qualifying events (divorce or legal separation of the employee and spouse or a dependent child’s losing eligibility for coverage as a dependent child), you must notify the Plan Administrator within 60 days after the qualifying event occurs. You must provide this notice to: Missy Shores at Hopewell City Public Schools. Applicable documentation will be required i.e. court order, certificate of coverage etc.

How is COBRA continuation coverage provided?

Once the Plan Administrator receives notice that a qualifying event has occurred, COBRA continuation coverage will be offered to each of the qualified beneficiaries. Each qualified beneficiary will have an independent right to elect COBRA continuation coverage. Covered employees may elect COBRA continuation coverage on behalf of their spouses, and parents may elect COBRA continuation coverage on behalf of their children.

COBRA continuation coverage is a temporary continuation of coverage that generally lasts for 18 months due to employment termination or reduction of hours of work. Certain qualifying events, or a second qualifying event during the initial period of coverage, may permit a beneficiary to receive a maximum of 36 months of coverage.

There are also ways in which this 18-month period of COBRA continuation coverage can be extended:

Disability extension of 18-month period of COBRA continuation coverage

If you or anyone in your family covered under the Plan is determined by Social Security to be disabled and you notify the Plan Administrator in a timely fashion, you and your entire family may be entitled to get up to an additional 11 months of COBRA continuation coverage, for a maximum of 29 months. The disability would have to have started at some time before the 60th day of COBRA continuation coverage and must last at least until the end of the 18-month period of COBRA continuation coverage.

Second qualifying event extension of 18-month period of continuation coverage

If your family experiences another qualifying event during the 18 months of COBRA continuation coverage, the spouse and dependent children in your family can get up to 18 additional months of COBRA continuation coverage, for a maximum of 36 months, if the Plan is properly notified about the second qualifying event. This extension may be available to the spouse and any dependent children getting COBRA continuation coverage if the employee or former employee dies; becomes entitled to Medicare benefits (under Part A, Part B, or both); gets divorced or legally separated; or if the dependent child stops being eligible under the Plan as a dependent child. This extension is only available if the second qualifying event would have caused the spouse or dependent child to lose coverage under the Plan had the first qualifying event not occurred.

Are there other coverage options besides COBRA Continuation Coverage?

Yes. Instead of enrolling in COBRA continuation coverage, there may be other coverage options for you and your family through the Health Insurance Marketplace, Medicaid, or other group health plan coverage options (such as a spouse’s plan) through what is called a “special enrollment period.” Some of these options may cost less than COBRA continuation coverage. You can learn more about many of these options at www.healthcare.gov.

If you have questions

For more information about your rights under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA), including COBRA, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, and other laws affecting group health plans, contact the nearest Regional or District Office of the U.S. Department of Labor’s Employee Benefits Security Administration (EBSA) in your area or visit www.dol.gov/ebsa. (Addresses and phone numbers of Regional and District EBSA Offices are available through EBSA’s website.) For more information about the Marketplace, visit www.HealthCare.gov.

Keep your Plan informed of address changes

To protect your family’s rights, let the Plan Administrator know about any changes in the addresses of family members. You should also keep a copy, for your records, of any notices you send to the Plan Administrator.
