To fit your specific needs, your benefit package provides you with three options

in medical plans.

• The plan with the lowest deductible has the highest payroll deduction.

• The plan with the highest deductible has the lowest payroll deduction.

• All three plans cover the same services, just with different copayments and

deductibles that apply.

It’s up to you to take advantage of everything your health plan offers. To choose

the plan that is right for you ask yourself the questions that will help you assess

your needs. Think about the ways you use healthcare, the medical needs you

can foresee, and how you can balance cost and coverage.

MEDICAL OVERVIEW

MyCHC

Benefits


TERMS & DEFINITIONS

Allowable charge—sometimes known as the "allowed amount," "maximum allowable," and "usual, customary, and reasonable (UCR)" charge, this is the dollar amount considered by a health insurance company to be a reasonable charge for medical services or supplies based on the rates in your area. Benefit year—the 12-month period for which health insurance benefits are calculated, not necessarily coinciding with the calendar year. Health insurance companies may update plan benefits and rates at the beginning of the benefit year. Deductible—This is the amount of money you pay for health services before your medical Insurance begins paying. For some services you have to pay the deductible before the plan pays. Your deductible starts over each January 1st. Dependent—any individual, either spouse or child, that is covered by the primary insured member’s plan.

Drug formulary—a list of prescription medications covered by your plan.

Effective date—the date on which a policyholder's coverage begins. Explanation of benefits—the health insurance company's written explanation of how a medical claim was paid. It contains detailed information about what the company paid and what portion of the costs you are responsible for. In-network provider—a health care professional, hospital, or pharmacy that is part of a health plan’s network of preferred providers. You will generally pay less for services received from in-network providers because they have negotiated a discount for their services in exchange for the insurance company sending more patients their way. Copay—This is the amount of money that you pay each time a particular service is utilized. Coinsurance—This is the rate that you will essentially be splitting the cost of your healthcare with your insurance provider. Your health plan has an 80/20 coinsurance rate, your insurance plan pays for 80% of your eligible medical expenses and you’re responsible for the remaining 20%. Out-of-pocket Coinsurance Maximum—This is the most you will have to pay under your medical plan each year. Includes copays, deductible & coinsurance. This protects you from the financial drain of high medical expenses. Copays do count towards your out-of-pocket maximum and still apply after you meet your maximum. In-Network / Out-of-Network—Your medical plan has “in and out” coverage, this means you can see any provider you wish. However, if you choose to see a provider that is not on the approved in-network list, you will pay a greater share of the cost. Determining whether or not a provider is in-network is your responsibility. Please check with the provider to see if he or she is in the network. before services are rendered, preferably when making the appointment.

UNIVERSAL LIFE

What is Universal Life Insurance?

As a complement to Term Life coverage, you may want to consider

purchasing Universal Life insurance coverage. Universal Life is permanent life insurance you

can take with you when you leave or retire.

Permanent life insurance builds cash value that earns interest. The interest rate credited will never be less

that the guaranteed minimum rate built into the coverage. Under current law, taxes are deferred on these

interest earnings. You may also borrow or withdraw from your fund value once sufficient cash value has

accumulated.

Coverage: You may purchase coverage for yourself, spouse and/or children. Policy issue ages for

employee and spouse are 18-65 and for dependent children to age 18. You may purchase this coverage

on your spouse or child with purchasing coverage on yourself.

How Much Do You Need?

You decide how much life insurance fits your family’s needs and your budget. Once you start paying

premiums, they’re added to your fund value. Cost of insurance charges and expense charges are

deducted each month.

Whether or not you have dependents yet, it’s smart to consider applying for permanent life insurance now.

The younger you are when you start, the lower your cost of insurance. And the sooner you start, the longer

your fund value has to build.

You may purchase permanent life insurance with minimal

health questions.

work. Monthly benefit starts after the waiting period. Benefits contin-

ue while totally disabled up to the maximum benefit period.

Partial Disability - Pays 50% of the monthly benefit when partially disa-

bled immediately after at least one month of total disability. Payments

continue while partially disabled for up to 3 months, but not beyond the

maximum benefit period.

Concurrent Disability - Pays one monthly benefit even if you are

disabled due to more than one cause. Being disabled due to more

than one cause will not extend the time benefits are paid.

your coverage has been in force for at least 9 months.

Our Responsibility Under Health Care Reform

Under the Employer Shared Responsibility provisions of Health Care Reform, employers with 50 or more full-time employees must offer affordable health coverage that provides a minimum level of coverage to their full-time employees2 (and their dependents), or pay a penalty. All of Chris Hill Construction United Healthcare medical plans do provide minimum essential coverage and are deemed to be affordable using the IRS federal poverty line safe harbor definition.

2For purposes of the Employer Shared Responsibility provisions, an employee is a full-time employee for a calendar month if he or she averages at least 30 hours of service per week. http://www.irs.gov/Affordable-Care-Act/Employers/Questions-and-Answers-on-Employer-Shared-Responsibility-Provisions-Under-the-Affordable-Care-Act

What is the Health Insurance Marketplace?

The Marketplace is designed to help you find health insurance that meets your needs and fits your budget. The Marketplace at www.healthcare.gov offers "one-stop shopping" to find and compare private health insurance options. You may also be eligible for a new kind of tax credit that lowers your monthly premium right away.

Your Responsibility Under Health Care Reform

Individual Mandate. The law now requires that most individuals maintain health insurance coverage or otherwise pay a penalty. If you don’t have medical coverage in 2016, you’ll pay the higher of these two amounts1:

• 2.5% of your yearly household income.(Only the amount of income above the tax filing threshold, about $10,000 for an individual, is used to calculate the penalty.)The maximum penalty is the national average premium for a bronze plan.

• $695 per person for the year ( $347.50 per child under 18 ).The maximum penalty per family using this method is $2,085.

1https://www.healthcare.gov/fees-exemptions/fee-for-not-being-covered/

As a result of some key parts of the health care law that took effect in 2014, there are now new ways to buy health insurance:

the Health Insurance Marketplace.

Can I Save Money on my Health Insurance Premiums

in the Marketplace?

You may qualify to save money and lower your monthly premium, but only if your employer does not offer coverage, or offers coverage that doesn't meet certain standards. The savings on your premium that you're eligible for depends on your

household income.

Does Employer Health Coverage Affect Eligibility for Premium

Savings though the Marketplace?

Yes. If you have an offer of health coverage from your employer that meets certain standards, you will not be eligible for a tax credit through the Marketplace and may wish to enroll in your employer's health plan. However, you may be eligible for a tax credit that lowers your monthly premium, or a reduction in certain cost-sharing if your employer does not offer coverage to you at all or does not offer coverage that meets certain standards. If the cost of a plan from your employer that would cover you (and not any other members of your family) is more than 9.66% of your household income for the year, or if the coverage your employer provides does not meet the "minimum value" standard set by the Affordable Care Act, you may be eligible for a tax credit.1

Note: If you purchase a health plan through the Marketplace instead of accepting health coverage offered by your employer, then you may lose the employer contribution (if any) to the employer-offered coverage. Also, this employer contribution -as well as your employee contribution to employer-offered coverage- is often excluded from income for Federal and State income tax purposes. Your payments for coverage through the Marketplace are made on an after-tax basis. 1https://www.healthcare.gov/fees-exemptions/fee-for-not-being-covered/

HEALTHCARE REFORM AND YOU

The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act & The Health Care and Education Affordability Reconciliation Act of 2010, together, create

the most comprehensive health insurance reform ever under taken in recent history by our Country.

Many of the new law’s required changes have already been incorporated into company health plans across the country since the effective

date in September of 2010. However, there will be many more changes taking place in the months to come, as more guidance is issued by

the government to employers, insurance carriers and individuals.

One of the key requirements of the new law beginning in 2014, is the mandate that all U.S. citizens & legal residents either carry health

insurance or pay an income tax penalty. While the tax penalty is not too severe in the first year, it becomes progressively more costly

each year thereafter.

Penalties for failing to buy coverage

Tax penalties for failing to buy coverage are phased in according to the following schedule:

In 2014, the greater of $95 or 1% of taxable income;

In 2015, the greater of $325 or 2% of taxable income;

In 2016 and 2017, the greater of $695 or 2.5% of taxable income; and

After 2016, the penalty is indexed for inflation.

However, there are two ways to avoid the tax penalty:

You can buy coverage for you and your family through your place of employment, if your employer offers such coverage. That coverage

must meet certain standards set by the law in order for you and the employer to escape respective tax penalties. The coverage must meet

certain minimum coverage standards (Generally pays at least 60% of your covered medical expenses) and must be considered

“affordable” (Employer cannot charge you a premium for single or employee only coverage greater than 9.66% of your W-2 earnings for

the year). The 9.66% would apply to annual salaries of up to about $45,000.

Or, you can provide coverage for you and your family through a Federally run Insurance Exchange. Essentially, an Exchange is an interac-

tive site where an individual can go to research, evaluate and buy health plans.

If you obtain coverage through an Exchange:

The Exchange will sell insurance policies at certain levels of coverage:

Bronze level – a medical plan designed to pay 60% of covered medical benefits;

Silver level – a medical plan designed to pay 70% of covered medical benefits;

Gold level – a medical plan designed to pay 80% of covered medical benefits;

Platinum level – a medical plan designed to pay 90% of covered medical benefits;

Catastrophic – available to young adults up to age 30 or those exempt from the individual mandate

(additional requirements may apply)

You may only obtain coverage through an Exchange if you are not participating in your employer’s plan.

If you satisfy certain low income thresholds and do not have medical coverage through an employer, or have employer-provided coverage

Legal Notices 23

that is considered “unaffordable” or pays benefits that are below the “Bronze” plan discussed above, there are tax credits available to help

you pay the premiums for coverage purchased through the Exchange. The credits also help pay for expenses like deductibles and

copays. More information on these credits will be provided to you later.

If you and your family are below 101% of the Federal Poverty Level in 2014, you may qualify for Medicaid.

THE WOMEN’S HEALTH CANCER RIGHTS ACT OF 1998 (WHCRA)

If you have had or are going to have a mastectomy, you may be entitled to certain benefits under the Women’s Health and Cancer Rights

Act of 1998 (WHCRA). For individuals receiving mastectomy-related benefits, coverage will be provided in a manner determined in

consultation with the attending physician and the patient, for:

All stages of reconstruction of the breast on which the mastectomy was performed;

Surgery and reconstruction of the other breast to produce a symmetrical appearance;

Prostheses; and

Treatment of physical complications of the mastectomy, including lymphedema.

These benefits will be provided subject to the same deductibles and coinsurance applicable to other medical and surgical benefits provided

under this plan. Therefore, the following deductibles and coinsurance apply: [$0/100%, $1000/80%, $2000/80%, $500/80%].

NOTICE OF SPECIAL ENROLLMENT RIGHTS

If you are declining enrollment for yourself or your dependents (including your spouse) because of other health insurance or group health

plan coverage, you may be able to enroll yourself and your dependents in this plan if you or your dependents lose eligibility for that other

coverage (or if the employer stops contributing toward your or your dependents’ other coverage). However, you must request enrollment

within 30 days after your or your dependents’ other coverage ends (or after the employer stops contributing toward the other coverage).

In addition, if you have a new dependent as a result of marriage, birth, adoption, or placement for adoption, you may be able to enroll your-

self and your dependents. However, you must request enrollment within 30 days after the marriage, birth, adoption, or placement for adop-

tion.

Further, if you decline enrollment for yourself or eligible dependents (including your spouse) while Medicaid coverage or coverage under a

State CHIP program is in effect, you may be able to enroll yourself and your dependents in this plan if:

coverage is lost under Medicaid or a State CHIP program; or

you or your dependents become eligible for a premium assistance subsidy from the State.

In either case, you must request enrollment within 60 days from the loss of coverage or the date you become eligible for premium assis-

tance.

To request special enrollment or obtain more information, contact person listed at the end of this summary.

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 assistance programs 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 employer-sponsored 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).

NEWBORNS ACT DISCLOSURE – FEDERAL

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 a 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 her 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 insurance issuer for prescribing a length of stay not in ex-

cess of 48 hours (or 96 hours).
