We will take a look at current District medical plans for active employees and retirees. Medical plans for active employees include: Kaiser HMO, Health Net HMO and Health Net Elect. Anthem is proposing to replace the Health Net HMO and Health Nt Elect with Anthem Blue Cross HMO and Anthem Blue Cross EPO. The District’s retiree plans include: Kaiser Senior Advantage, Health Net Medicare HMO and Health Net Medicare PPO. Anthem is proposing to replace the Health Net Medicare HMO and Health Net PPO with Anthem Medicare Advantage.

Active Employees Kaiser Permanente Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) Kaiser makes medical coverage simple. Everything is under One Roof Kaiser Hospital Kaiser Doctors Kaiser Specialists Kaiser Pharmacy Kaiser Insurance First, lets talk about the HMO plans starting with Kaiser. A big advantage to Kaiser, is that everything is under one roof. You see your primary care physician, receive a referral to a specialist, and pick-up your prescriptions all at a Kaiser hospital.

Active Employees Kaiser Permanente HMO Most copays are $15 Common copays include: $15 copay for office visits $5 copay for generic drugs $15 copay for brand name drugs $50 copay - if you go to an emergency room $100 copay - if you are checked into the hospital For a more comprehensive list see handbook or plan details. Most Co Pays at Kaiser, are 15 dollars with a few exceptions. Common copays include: a 15 dollar copay for office visits, a 5 dollar copay for generic drugs, a 15 copay for brand name drugs, a 50 dollar copay for emergency room visits, and a 100 dollar copay if you are checked into the hospital.

Active Employees Health Net HMO When you enroll in Health Net HMO Assigned a Medical Group such as John Muir Medical Group, Hills Physicians or the Alta Bates medical groups. Assigned a primary care physician Health Net HMO is a little different than Kaiser HMO. When you enroll in Health Net HMO, you are assigned to a Medical Group, such as the John Muir Medical Group or the Hills Physicians Medical Group. Just like Kaiser, your primary care physician must provide you with a referral to a specialist.

Active Employees Health Net HMO Most copays are $15 Common copays include: $15 copay for office visits $5 copay for generic drugs $15 copay for brand name drugs $50 copay - if you go to an emergency room $100 copay - if you are checked into the hospital For a more comprehensive list see handbook or plan details. The Co Pay Structure for Health Net HMO is the same as it is for Kaiser HMO. Most Co Pays at Health Net are 15 dollars with a few exceptions. Common copays include a 15 dollar copay for office visits, a 5 dollar copay for generic drugs, a 15 dollar copay for brand name drugs, a 50 dollar copay for emergency room visits and a 100 dollar copay if you are checked into the hospital.

Active Employees Anthem Blue Cross HMO When you enroll in Anthem Blue Cross HMO Assigned a Medical Group such as John Muir Medical Group, Hills Physicians or the Alta Bates medical groups. Assigned a primary care physician Same co-pay structure as Health Net HMO and Kaiser HMO Anthem Blue Cross HMO is structured similar to Health Net HMO. With Anthem HMO, you are assigned to a medical group, and receive referrals to a specialist from your primary care physician. The Co Pay structure, is similar to both Health Net HMO and Kaiser HMO.

Anthem Blue Cross HMO California Care HMO Network Primary Care Physicians: 14,458 Specialists: 19,261 Hospitals: 370 The Anthems Blue Cross HMO network, in California has over 14,000 primary care physicians, over 19,000 specialists and over 350 hospitals.

Active Employees Health Net Elect Health Net Elect allows you the choice of using either Tier 1 Health Net HMO network or Tier 2 the Health Net PPO network You can always stay on tier 1 – HMO and pay your normal copays. However, you can also use Tier 2 –PPO. Tier 2 PPO – you go to any doctor in CA outside of your medical group that accepts Health Net PPO. However, the cost structure is different and similar to that of a PPO. Office visits cost $25.00 For most services your are responsible to pay 20% of the Health Net contracted rate Please see the cost structure for the Health Net Elect plan details which is online. Health Net Elect is different than Health Net HMO, Kaiser HMO and Anthem Blue Cross HMO. Health Net Elect provides two tiers. Tier 1 is the Health Net HMO tier. Tier 2 is a PPO tier. In Tier 2, go to any Health Net PPO doctor, in California, outside of your medical group. However, the cost structure for Tier 2 is not like Health Net HMO, it is similar to a PPO with a 20% in network Co Pay.

Active Employees Anthem Blue Cross Exclusive Provider Organization (EPO) Anthem Blue Cross EPO Easy to access Medical Groups are eliminated Go to any doctor in the country that takes Anthem Blue Cross PPO that is accepting patients Anthem EPO uses the Anthem PPO provider network. You don’t need a referral from a primary care physician The copay structure is the same as the Health Net HMO and Anthem HMO. Anthem Blue Cross EPO, is different than any other medical plan. It is easy to access, medical groups are eliminated, go to any doctor in the country that takes Anthem Blue Cross PPO, pay a 15 dollar co pay. And, you don’t need a referral to see a specialist.

Number of Anthem CA Providers in EPO/PPO Number of CA Providers in PPO: PCPs: 22,515 Specialists: 32,191 Hospitals: 380 97% of the 1,076 teaching hospitals in America contract with Blue plans nationally (compared to Aetna's 93%; CIGNA's 92% and UHC's 95%) The Anthem EPO plan uses the Anthem PPO network which has over 22,000 primary care physicians, 32,000 specialists and 350 hospitals in California.

Retiree Kaiser Senior Advantage Same exact plan as the Traditional Kaiser plan for active employees with a few additional benefits Fixed $5 Co Pay $150 optical allowance every 2 years Includes Medicare Part D Next, lets talk about our retiree plans starting with Kaiser Senior Advantage. Kaiser Senior Advantage is the same exact plan as the traditional Kaiser plan. However, it has a fixed 5 dollar co pay, a 150 dollar optical allowance, every 2 years, and includes Medicare Part D.

Retiree Health Net Medicare HMO Coordination of Benefits Plan Same exact plan as the Traditional Health Net HMO plan for active employees Includes Medicare Part D Next, lets talk about the two Health Net Medicare plans starting with the Health Net Medicare HMO plan. The Health Net Medicare HMO is the same plan as the traditional Health Net HMO plan. However, it includes Medicare Part D.

Retiree Health Net Medicare PPO Coordination of Benefits Plan Retirees pay a deductible and a percentage of the cost which is 10% in-network or 30% out of network up to an annual maximum. Office copay $15 Maximum out of pocket in network $1,500 per person; out of network $3,000 maximum family 3 or more Includes Medicare Part D The Health Net Medicare PPO is a two tiered PPO plan that requires retirees to pay a deductible, and 10 percent of the costs in-network, and 30 percent of the cost for out of network services, up to an annual maximum. This plan includes Medicare Part D.

Retiree Anthem Blue Cross Anthem Medicare Advantage Retirees pay a $15 copay and go to any doctor or hospital nationally that accepts Medicare or Anthem. Medicare is an 80/20 plan that covers 80% but not the remaining 20%. However, this plan covers the 20% gap plus any deductibles charged by Medicare. Next, lets talk about the Anthem Medicare plan. The Anthem Medicare Advantage plan, allows retirees to go, to any doctor or hospital in the country, that accepts Anthem PPO or Medicare, for a 15 dollar copay. This plan covers the 20%, Medicare gap, plus any deductibles charged by Medicare. This concludes the presentation. Thank you for your time.
