4 Supplemental Products Sales Pitch
Changes in the market present opportunities to sell supplemental plans During 2015, Essential Health Benefit (EHB) plans can have out-of-pocket limits as high as $6,600 for individuals and $13,200 for families (increased in 2016 to as high as $6,850 for individuals and $13,700 for families). This can leave large gaps in coverage which may be filled with supplemental plans. Advanced premium tax credits for EHB plans are available for individuals or families making up to 400% of the federal poverty level. Premium dollars saved due to premium tax credits may allow your customer to purchase supplemental insurance that can help fill gaps left by high deductibles and coinsurance on EHB plans. Number of family members Poverty Guideline for family income (as of 2015) Can still qualify for a subsidy under the ACA with an income up to 1 $11,770 X 400% $47,080 2 $15,930 $63,720 3 $20,090 $80,360 4 $24,250 $97,000 5 $28,410 $113,640 Premium dollars saved due to tax credits can be used to pay for supplemental plans and help reduce coverage gaps.

5 Metal Gap Plan Sales Pitch
The Metal Gap plan is a piece of the puzzle that can help fill in gaps caused by high out-of-pocket expenses or to supplement lost wages. On the right, health insurance is supplemented by the following: Metal Gap Plan for lump sum hospital coverage, CancerWise®* for lump-sum cancer coverage, Accident Companion* for lump sum accident coverage. Coverage Gap Health Coverage Accident Companion Cancer Wise Metal Gap ! The Metal Gap Plan can help fill gaps with ACA Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum health plan cost sharing. However, it cannot completely fill all coverage gaps. Make sure your customers understand this. They may want to consider more than one type of supplemental coverage. *See the appropriate training documents for more details on these other products.

9 Metal Gap Plan Claims Example
Jenny Heart, age 43, had a car accident. Jenny fractures her skull, suffers a concussion, and has multiple contusions. Due to the fracture in her skull, Jenny is confined in the hospital for 7 days. She spends the first and second day in an ICU room to monitor for swelling of the brain and spends the third through seventh days in a regular hospital room. Luckily, in addition to her bronze level EHB health insurance, Jenny has a Level B Metal Gap plan. The Bronze EHB plan only paid $3,900, leaving Jenny OOP $6,600. SureBridge paid $4,000, covering most of the gap left by the EHB plan. Other supplemental products, such as the Accident Direct Plan, could have paid additional benefits. BILL After PPO Discounts ICU Room (1st - 2nd Day) Hospital Room (3rd – 7th Day) $6,000 $4,500 Paid By Health Plan $0 $3,900 Out of Pocket $6,000 $600 Paid By SureBridge Plan Hospital Confinement Benefit $4,000 Calendar Year Maximum for all benefits combined $6,600 $4,000
