Hospital Deductible Insurance* (HDI) Supplementary Group Coverage Complementing High Deductible Health Plans (“HDHPs”) *The following definition for Hospital Deductible Insurance (HDI) is applicable to each reference used in this presentation. Hospital Deductible Insurance (HDI) is a fixed indemnity plan intended to supplement some of the deductible expense associated with hospitalization when primary coverage is provided by a high deductible major medical health insurance plan.

Helps Fill The Most Important “Gap” Created By HDHPs: Hospitalization

Simple And Cost Effective First Hospital Confinement Coverage - The full benefit selected is payable when a covered person is confined as an inpatient in a hospital for at least one day - The benefit is paid once per covered person per Plan Year No Medical Questions Or Physical Exam Guaranteed Issue For All Eligible Employees And Their Eligible Dependents Benefits Paid Directly To The Insured

Fixed Indemnity Benefits Exempt From The Affordable Care Act (Health Care Reform)

Benefit Amounts Employer can select any benefit amount up to $5,000 in $500 increments Standard benefit amounts: - $1,000 - $2,000 - $3,000 - $5,000

Premium Basis “Blanket” 100% of employee-only premium paid by employer Employee pays the balance for dependent coverage Pre-existing conditions exclusion waived for groups with 10+ employees Voluntary Employee pays all or any part of the premium Pre-existing conditions exclusion applies

Blanket $1,000$2,000$3,000$5,000 Employee Only $10$19$29$48 Employee & Spouse $21$42$63$105 Employee & Child(ren) $16$32$48$81 Family$28$56$84$140 Voluntary $1,000$2,000$3,000$5,000 Employee Only $13$25$38$63 Employee & Spouse $27$55$82$137 Employee & Child(ren) $21$42$63$105 Family$37$73$110$183 Monthly Premiums

Exclusions Hospitalization caused or contributed to by: Pre-existing conditions (not applicable to groups with 10+ eligible employees & employer pays 100% of employee premium) Suicide or any intentionally self-inflicted injury Commission, or attempt to commit, a felony Participation in a riot or insurrection War or act of war Dental care except for accidental injury to sound, natural teeth and gums within 6 months of the injury Treatment received outside of the U.S. Treatment received in a VA or federal hospital unless required to pay or treatment where the person would not have to pay without insurance or treatment provided by a family member or treatment covered by worker’s compensation or injury or sickness sustained while on active duty military service

Pre-existing Conditions* Definition: Any condition for which medical advice, consultation, care or treatment was recommended by or received from a doctor or symptoms existed that would cause a reasonable person to seek consultation, care or treatment from a doctor in the six months prior to becoming insured Duration: Pre-existing conditions exclusion applies only during the first six months of coverage *Pre-existing Conditions Exclusion Is Not Applicable To Groups With 10 Or More Eligible Employees And The Employer Pays The Entire Premium

All HDHP Plans Health Reimbursement Accounts (HRAs) and Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) Compatible With:

HSA legislation 1 prohibits anyone covered under a qualifying high deductible health plan and also covered under “any health plan which is not a high deductible health plan“ from taking a tax deduction for an HSA Title XII, Section 223 provides an exception for “other permitted insurance” which does not result in disqualification including (c)(3)(C) “insurance paying a fixed amount per day (or other period) of hospitalization” HSA Compliance 1 Public Law Medicare Prescription Drug Improvement And Modernization Act of 2003 – Effective January 1, 2004

State Availability HDI is available to employer groups of 2 or more in all states except: Colorado Connecticut Kansas New Hampshire New Jersey New York North Dakota Vermont HDI is restricted to groups with 51 or more employees* in: Florida * total number of full and part-time employees on the payroll, not the number insured or the number eligible Coverage issued as individual policies in Minnesota. As individual policies, no employer contribution can be made. Coverage will be based on voluntary rates and will be subject to the 6 month pre-existing condition limitation. List billing to the employer is available.

Outpatient Expense Gaps HDI provides specific protection against hospitalization - the coverage “gap” created by HDHPs. Outpatient expenses can be significant but most employees can find a way to pay for them because they usually do not occur all at once. HDI does not attempt to cover the outpatient gaps because: the combined HDHP and in/outpatient gap plan premium will likely total as much or more than the cost of a single comprehensive policy; Providing outpatient gap benefits can lead to increased utilization which negates the lower health care consumption behavior expectation that is the basis for the lower rates offered through HDHPs; HSA legislation prohibits a gap policy that provides outpatient benefits from being paired with a high deductible policy.
