The Medical Plans
 
There are four medical plans: Basic, Comprehensive, Health Reimbursement Arrangement (HRA), and the Health Savings Account(HSA).
 
These plans offer you a variety of costs and coverage levels to meet your needs.
  • Each is a PPO (preferred provider organization).
  • You can use in-network or out-of-network providers, but you'll  pay less using an in-network doctor.
  • All of the plans provide free routine in-network preventive care.

To help make your decision, consider:
  • how much the plan costs you out of your pay (your pre-tax contribution)
  • the costs you'll pay before the plan starts paying (deductible)
  • the amount you'll pay when you use your benefits (coinsurance)
  • the most you'll pay in one year if you have serious medical expenses (out-of-pocket maximum)

However, your paycheck contribution and costs if you use the plan are only part of the picture. You should also ask yourself:
 
  • How is my health? What about the health of my covered dependents?
  • Are any of us likely to be hospitalized next year?
  • Am I paying for more coverage than I need?
  • What were my medical bills this year? Are they likely to change next year?
  • Which coverage would make me feel most secure financially? 
 
Take time to read about all of your choices, so that you can pick the plan that is right for you.
