5 Choosing a Network Provider When you choose a doctor, you’ll need to make sure that the doctor is in the your network. If you go to a doctor that is not in your network (or non-network provider), you will be responsible for a larger portion of the bill! Always call your doctor & ask if he/she participates in your network. A provider list can be found at www.humana.comwww.humana.com Go to the bottom of the page and select ‘Find a Doctor’ Enter your Member ID Number or search by Coverage & Network Go to www.humana.com and select ‘Find a Doctor’ at the bottom of the page. www.humana.com

6 W HERE SHOULD I GO ? Always try to go to your primary doctor instead of the emergency room unless it is a true emergency. ER visits are much more expensive than office visits for YOU and for the City. If your visit is considered a non-emergency, you’ll be charged a $100 co- pay up front. If you are admitted then the $100 co-pay will be waived Have chest pains? A broken bone? Go to the Emergency room! Need a couple of stitches? Got the flu? Call your doctor! Example: Got the Flu? Go to the ER? Facility Charge: $500 Physician Charge: $200 ER Co-Pay: $100 Rx Antibiotics: $20 co-pay Total Cost: $820 Time: Approx. 4 hours Go to your Doctor? Dr. Visit: $20 co-pay Rx Antibiotics: $10 co- pay Total Cost: $30 Time: Approx. 1 hour Don’t forget that some of the stand alone facilities are EMERGENCY ROOMS

9 H EALTH I NSURANCE Deductibles & co-payments are dollar amounts that you must pay before the plan pays. Deductibles are paid once per year per person and do not apply to the 100% maximum out-of-pocket payment. Deductible amounts are different based on whether you see a network or non-network doctor. Co-payments are smaller amounts of money that are paid each time a service is used. For example, you’ll typically pay a $20 co-pay when you go to a doctor’s visit. You’ll pay a co-pay when you pick up your prescription drugs at your pharmacy if you have a POS. 4 Level Rx Plan 1- low generic & brand-name = $10 2- high generic & brand-name = $30 3- high brand-name = $50 4- high-tech drugs and some brand- name = 25% of cost of drug Some drugs are not covered by insurance plans which means you may have to pay the entire cost. See formulary online or call Humana Work with your doctor on finding the best choice for you. Non-preferred, brand name drugs usually have equally effective and less costly generic Deductibles & Co-PaysPrescription Benefits
