1. *Enroll in or cancel Medical, Dental, Vision 2. *Add or remove dependents to your Medical, Dental, Vision coverage 3. Change your medical plan between 3 options: Classic, the new Health Savings Plan (includes a Health Savings

Account or “HSA” feature), or the new Premier Plan 4. Change the status of Medical, Dental and Vision premiums between after-tax and pre-tax 5. Enroll in Flexible Spending Accounts - Healthcare and/or Dependent Day Care 6. Enroll in Optional Long Term Disability 7. Enroll in Voluntary Benefits

*You are required to provide documentation proving dependent eligibility (e.g. marriage license, birth certificate) in order to add a spouse or child.

How do I enroll or make changes?

Medical, Dental, Vision, Flexible Spending Account (FSA), Optional Long Term Disability: Use the appropriate enrollment Form. Go to www.uaex.edu/OpenEnrollment, click the Open Enrollment Forms tab and select the appropriate form. You must re-enroll in an FSA every year in which you wish to continue this benefit. The form(s) should be sent to our office – by fax, email or in person. The fax number is 501-671-2251. The deadline for our office’s receipt of the form is 4:30 p.m. on Thursday, November 30, 2017.

What’s New? Are there any changes for 2018? MEDICAL Go to www.uaex.edu/OpenEnrollment, and click the Open Enrollment Decisions Guide on our website for details. Review the UA Open Enrollment Decision Guide for examples of which medical plan may work best for you.

2 new plans: Premier Plan and Health Savings Plan. Classic Plan will continue to be offered, giving you a choice of 3 medical plans.

Don’t pick a plan solely on your premium cost. Click and look closely at the benefits on the “At a Glance” Medical Plan Options located on the Open Enrollment Documents & Rates tab so you can estimate what your out-of-pocket costs will be.

The Point of Service Plan is discontinued after 12-31-2017. Current POS participants will default to the Classic plan unless we receive your form to change to the Premier or Health Savings Plan.

Classic copay changes: Specialist office visit and Urgent Care Center copays increase from $50 to- $55. Prescription copays increase to $55 in tier 2, and $90 in tier 3. Tier 1 remains at $15.

Because the new Health Savings Plan is a qualified high deductible plan as defined by the IRS, anyone who elects that plan will also enroll in a Health Savings Account (HSA). You may make pre-tax payroll deducted contributions and the University will also make a contribution (detailed in UA Open Enrollment Decision Guide). The University contribution is not guaranteed in future years. Minimally you should put your premium savings into your HSA to build it up.

Those who are approaching or already age 65 and entitled to Medicare are not eligible for the Health Savings Plan/HSA benefit plan.

New medical ID cards will be issued.

UAMS SmartCare benefits will be offered to all other UA campuses for the first time.

DENTAL Go to www.uaex.edu/OpenEnrollment, and click the Open Enrollment Documents and Rates tab and review materials listed under UA Dental Plan section for details.

Our plan administrator changes from Delta Dental of Arkansas to Arkansas Blue Cross/Blue Shield. Make sure your dentist is in the Dental PPO Select Plus Network by visiting this website: www.uasdental.blueadvantagearkansas.com or call 1-844-662-2281 toll-free.

No change to premiums.

Addition of orthodontia coverage for children under age 18. Plan pays 50% up to lifetime limit of $2,000 per child. Be sure to take this into account when planning your 2018 out of pocket costs to run through your healthcare FSA.

New dental ID cards will be issued.

VISION Go to www.uaex.edu/OpenEnrollment, and click the Open Enrollment Documents and Rates tab and review materials listed under the UA Vision Plan section for details.

No changes to benefits or premiums.

This plan is a discount program for purchasing glasses or contacts. Select between two plans: Basic or Enhanced.

FLEXIBLE SPENDING ACCOUNT (FSA) Go to www.uaex.edu/OpenEnrollment, and click the Open Enrollment Documents and Rates tab and review materials listed under the UA Flexible Spending Account section for details including “How FSAs work” and plan descriptions. Be conservative when deciding your 2018 contribution as ‘use it or lose it’ rules apply.

FSAs require annual re-enrollment. The deadline is 11-30-2017 to enroll in a 2018 FSA.

The Healthcare FSA annual limit increases to $2,600. Dependent Daycare FSA remains $5,000 if single or married and file a joint tax return, or $2,500 if married and file a separate tax return.

You cannot enroll in a Healthcare FSA if you enroll in the new Health Savings medical plan. Instead you would make pre-tax contributions to your Health Savings Account (HSA). Unlike an FSA, there is no ‘use it or lose it’ component in an HSA.

Be sure to put your ANNUAL amount, not payroll deduction, when you complete the form to enroll in your 2018 FSA.

Healthcare FSA: You have until March 31 next year (2018) to file claims incurred through Dec. 31 of this year (2017). Any balance over $50 and under $500 automatically rolls over. [Exception, if you enroll in the new Health Savings medical plan, there is no rollover.]

Dependent Daycare FSA: You have until March 31 next year to file claims. None of the remaining 2017 funds after that date will rollover. However, you do have a grace period in which to incur expenses. The grace period is through March 15, 2018 to incur daycare expenses and be reimbursed from your 2017 FSA. But March 31, 2018 remains the deadline to file claims.

New benny cards will be issued for employees with cards that expire 12/2017.

VOLUNTARY BENEFITS Go to www.uaex.edu/OpenEnrollment, and click the Open Enrollment Documents and Rates tab and review materials listed under the UA Voluntary Benefits section for each plan for additional information and enrollment instructions. These are individual policies. You apply for enrollment directly to the company. Premiums are payable directly to the company, for example through bank draft.

Home/Auto (through Liberty Mutual). Can enroll at any time.

Prepaid Legal (through LegalShield). Can enroll at any time.

ID Theft Protection (through ID Watchdog). Can enroll at any time.

Life and Disability Insurance Coverage

Go to www.uaex.edu/OpenEnrollment, and click the Open Enrollment Documents and Rates tab and review materials listed under the UA Life and Disability Plan section for details. These are group plans fully insured by Standard Insurance Company. To apply for additional life insurance, you must complete the appropriate Group Benefit Change form and the Standard Application via the online application.

Small rate increase for Optional Life, Dependent Life, and Optional Long Term Disability. See the rate calculation formula on the last page of this packet.

Basic Life Insurance: Covers you for one times your salary, up to $50,000. 100% paid by Extension. This is automatic, no action on your part required.

Optional Life Insurance: You can apply for additional coverage in increments of 1, 2, 3 or 4 times your salary, not to exceed $500,000. No open enrollment, must apply to Standard via link provided for online form.

Dependent Life Insurance: You can cover your spouse for $10,000, $15,000 or $20,000. Children from birth to 26th birthday are covered at 50% of spouse’s coverage. No open enrollment, must apply to Standard via the link provided for the online application.

Accidental Death and Dismemberment: This plan has perpetual open enrollment; you can make changes at any time of the year. Changes are effective the first of the following month.

Basic Long Term Disability Insurance: Covers first $20,000 of salary. Automatic, 100% paid by Extension. Benefit is 60% salary replacement if you are on unpaid leave of absence or terminated due to a medical disability lasting over 6 months.

Optional Long Term Disability Insurance: Covers your salary over $20,000. Same benefit as Basic plan. Open Enrollment applies, however you must apply to Standard via the link provided for the online application. If you sign up during Open Enrollment, your plan will be subject to a 12-month pre-existing condition exclusion period. Pre-existing means that you had symptoms, took medications, had treatment, or were diagnosed during the six month period immediately prior to your 1/1/2018 effective date of coverage. To determine the cost for employees with an annual salary above $20,000:

1. Take your annual salary (up to $100,000 max) and subtract $20,000. 2. Multiply that figure by .00512 for your annual cost. 3. Divide by # of pay periods in the year: 24 semi-monthly.

Catastrophic Leave Bank Program Go to www.uaex.edu/OpenEnrollment, and click the Open Enrollment Forms tab and review materials listed under the Catastrophic Leave Bank Program section for details. Donations to the Catastrophic Leave Bank Program may be made throughout the year, upon resignation or upon retirement. A donation cannot be accepted if it would reduce the combined sick and annual leave balance of the donor to less than 80 hours. The minimum donation is one hour.

Check Your Dependents Only lawful spouses and children under age 26 can be covered. A child can be your biological child, a child for

which you have legal custody or have adopted (court document required), and stepchildren if you are married to the child’s parent.

You are required to provide documentation proving dependent eligibility (e.g. marriage license, birth certificate) in order to add a spouse or child.

You CANNOT cover ex-spouses, domestic partners, boyfriends or girlfriends, fiancées, grandchildren, nieces and nephews, parents, or anyone already covered under a UA insurance plan (can’t have double coverage).

If claims or University premiums are paid for an ineligible dependent, the employee will be liable for costs and be subject to disciplinary action, including termination of employment.

Future Changes

Tobacco users will pay an additional $50 monthly premium surcharge for their medical coverage starting January 2019. Contact UMR directly (customer service number listed on your ID card) to learn about free Chantix prescription under our medical plan to ‘kick the habit’.

The required UA Retirement Plan contribution will continue to increase by 1% each July until it reaches 5% in 2020. Currently the required contribution is 2%. It will increase to 3% in July 2018 (automatic, no action on your part needed). If that percent, combined with your additional voluntary percent contribution, is 10% or higher, you benefit from the 10% match.

Be thoughtful in your open enrollment choices. After the 11-30-2017 deadline, you are locked into your choices for 2018 unless you experience a “qualifying event” such as marriage, divorce, birth, or change in spouse’s employment status.

As a result of the Affordable Care Act, FEHB plans have been providing a summary document on their websites which

details information about health plan benefits and coverage. The Summary of Benefits and Coverage (SBC) document

includes information on the following and will continue to have a disclaimer indicating that the plan brochure remains the

official statement of benefits:

Cost – deductibles, copayments, coinsurance, and out-of-pocket limits

Coverage – covered services, examples of covered services, and excluded services

Rights – rights to continue coverage as well as grievance and appeal rights

A statement that coverage under the plan qualifies as “minimum essential coverage”

A statement that the health coverage of the plan meets the minimum value standard for the benefits the plan

provides

The SBC is available at www.opm.gov/healthcare-insurance/healthcare/plan-information/summary-of-benefits.

Copies of all FEHB plan brochures can be viewed at www.opm.gov/FEHBbrochures. You are encouraged to visit the

OPM website for FEHB notifications and rate sheets. Your FEHB health plan will contact you to offer the option of

obtaining your 2018 benefit brochure online or obtaining a paper copy of the benefit brochure. If you did not previously

request a paper copy of your health plan brochure, you will not automatically receive one.

*Out-of- network benefits are available. If services are received out-of-network, a higher out-of-network annual deductible, higher coinsurance

percentage and higher out-of-pocket maximums apply. In-network deductibles do not apply to out-of-network deductibles and visa versa. For more information about out-of-network coverage, or to get a copy of the complete terms of coverage, visit www.umr.com or contact UMR at 1-888-438-6105.

FOOTNOTES:

(a) Deductible means a fixed dollar amount that you must incur each calendar year before the health plan begins to pay for covered medical services. The

calendar year deductible applies to all Covered Services except for Preventive Care Services and for those services in the Classic and Premier Plans where a Co-payment applies in, unless otherwise noted. In-network deductibles do not apply to out-of-network deductibles and visa versa. Two individual deductibles = the family deductible.

(b) Coinsurance means a fixed percentage of charges you must pay toward the cost of covered medical services. Coinsurance applies to all Covered Services except those for which a Co-payment applies unless otherwise noted.

(c) Medical Out of Pocket Maximum is the maximum combined deductible, coinsurance and copayments you will pay in any calendar year. It does not include

costs for services not covered by the plan such as exclusions, limitations and pharmacy copayments. In the Classic and Premier Plans the maximum OOP for prescriptions drugs is a separate OOP from medical expenses. In the Health Savings Plan the medical OOP and pharmacy OOP are combined. Family OOP max requires two individual family member meet the individual OOP max.

(d) Co-Payment means a fixed dollar amount that you must pay each time you receive a particular medical service. You pay a co-payment when you obtain

health care directly from your Network Primary Care Physician or a Network Specialist. Certain services rendered in the Network Primary Care Physician or Network Specialist’s office are not subject to the deductible. Services rendered in the Network Primary Care Physician or Network Specialist’s office that are subject to deductible, coinsurance and additional copayments include advanced imaging such as MRI, CT Scans, PET Scans and Nuclear Medicine (imaging studies using medical radioisotopes), Temporomandibular Joint Disorder (TMJ) treatment and all therapy including chiropractic.

(e) When you obtain health care through a Non-UMR Provider, your benefit payments for covered services will be based on the Maximum Allowable Payment

for out-of-network services, as determined by UMR. Charges in excess of the Maximum Allowable Payments do not count toward meeting the deductible or meeting the limitation on your Out of Pocket maximum. Non-UMR Providers may bill the patient for amounts in excess of the Maximum Allowable Payment.

(f) Well baby/child visits from an In-Network provider are covered in full from birth until the day the child attains age 19. (g) In the Classic Plan maternity inpatient charges are subject to co-payment and coinsurance. With any of the medical plans it is your responsibility to

notify Human Resources within 31 days of the birth or adoption of your child in order to obtain coverage for your newborn. (h) In the Classic and Premier Plans the maximum combined Inpatient co-payment per calendar year is $1,200 per person (no more than one co-payment per

30 calendar days). (i) In the Classic and Premier Plans the TMJ deductible is separate from the other In-Network or Out-of-Network deductibles. The TMJ deductible is in addition

to any In-Network or Out-of-Network deductible and requires pre-authorization. (j) Vision Exams: Ophthalmologist or Optometrist in-network and out-of-network benefits are the same. (k) In the Classic and Premier Plans, , co-payments at non-participating pharmacies will be $20.00 for Tier 1, $60.00 for Tier 2, and $95.00 for Tier 3. If a new

enrollee has to get a prescription prior to receiving his/her pharmacy card, he/she will have to pay for the prescription in full, apply for reimbursement, and will be reimbursed less the $20.00, $60.00, or $95.00 co-payments. Alternatively, if the enrollment process has been completed and benefits are in effect, a temporary prescription drug ID card can be printed by going to www.medimpact.com, registering and clicking on ‘member ID card’. A complete summary of prescription drug benefits is also on the above web-address. Excluded or non-covered medication or devices do not apply to the OOP maximum.

(l) Preventive care services and cancer screenings will follow the U.S. Preventive Task Force Recommendations. See the health plan Summary Plan

Description for details on coverage. The following procedures for all plans will require pre-authorization before the services are rendered:

1. Any admission to Inpatient Facilities or Partial Hospitalization Units 2. Any referral by your PCP to an Out-of-Network Provider 3. Pre-Natal/Maternity Care. Authorization includes physician care and one ultra sound. Additional ultrasounds require pre-authorization. UAMS offers

when you obtain health care directly from your Network Primary Care Physician (PCP) or Network Specialist. Referrals are NOT required for Network Specialist office visits.

(c) Deductible means a fixed dollar amount that you must incur each calendar year before the health plan begins to pay for covered medical services. In-network deductibles do not apply to out-of-network deductibles and vice versa. Two individual deductibles = family deductible

(d) Co-insurance (“coins”) means a fixed percentage of charges you must pay toward the cost of covered medical services, after satisfying the annual deductible.

(e) Maximum combined inpatient copays per calendar year is $1,200 per person (no more than one hospital admission copay per 30 calendar days).

(f) Maternity inpatient charges are subject to deductible, co-payment and coinsurance. It is your responsibility to notify UAMS Human Resources and submit the required enrollment forms within 31 days of the birth or adoption of your child in order to obtain coverage for your newborn.

(g) Medical Out of Pocket Maximum is the maximum combined deductible, coinsurance and copayments you will pay in any calendar year. It does not include costs for services not covered by the plan such as exclusions, limitations and pharmacy copayments. In the Classic and Premier Plans the maximum OOP for prescriptions drugs is a separate OOP from medical expenses. In the Health Savings Plan the medical OOP and pharmacy OOP are combined. Family OOP max requires two individual family member meet the individual OOP max.

(h) Wellness incentive requirements will be announced to employees the prior year and may include one or more of the following: completion of annual biometric screening, on-line health risk assessment, selection of a Primary Care Physician, preventive care, tobacco free, and participation in disease management programs. Employees who enroll in the health plan after the annual wellness window will be subject to the lower OOP max in their first calendar year of coverage. Wellness incentives, including the reduced OOP max, do not apply to retiree, surviving family or COBRA members.

(i) In the Classic and Premier Plans, co-payments at non-participating pharmacies will be $20.00 for Tier 1, $60.00 for Tier 2, and $95.00 for Tier 3. If a new enrollee has to get a prescription prior to receiving his/her pharmacy card, he/she will have to pay for the prescription in full, apply for reimbursement, and will be reimbursed less the $20.00, $60.00, or $95.00 co-payments. Alternatively, if the enrollment process has been completed and benefits are in effect, a temporary prescription drug ID card can be printed by going to www.medimpact.com, registering and clicking on ‘member ID card’. A complete summary of prescription drug benefits is also on the above web-address. Excluded or non-covered medication or devices do not apply to the OOP maximum.

(j) Out-of- network benefits are available. If services are received out-of-network, a higher out-of-network annual deductible, higher coinsurance percentage and higher out-of-pocket maximums apply. In-network deductibles do not apply to out-of-network deductibles and visa versa. For more information about out-of-network coverage, or to get a copy of the complete terms of coverage, visit www.umr.com or contact UMR at 1-888-438-6105. When you obtain health care through a Non-UA-UMR Provider, your benefit payments for covered services will be based on the Maximum Allowable Payment for out-of-network services, as determined by UMR. Charges in excess of the Maximum Allowable Payments do not count toward meeting the deductible or meeting the limitation on your co-insurance maximum. Non-UA-UMR Providers may bill the patient for amounts in excess of the Maximum Allowable Payment.

The following procedures will require pre-authorization before the services are rendered: 1. Any admission to Inpatient Facilities or Partial Hospitalization Units 2. Any referral by your PCP to an Out-of-Network Provider 3. Pre-Natal/Maternity Care 4. Home Health Care, Home Infusion Services, or Hospice (inpatient or outpatient) 5. Transplant Services (including the evaluation to determine if you are a candidate for a transplant by a transplant program) 6.
