8 Illustrative Medical Scenario  You visit a SLUCare doctor at a UHC-contracted hospital for an inpatient surgery; $1,250 in Physician charges and $5,000 in facility charges (after UHC discounts) –PRIMARY PLAN  Doctor’s Charges: $250 deductible (SLUCare specific, cross applies to in-network deductible), then 10% coinsurance (10% x $1,000 = $100) –$250 + $100 = $350  Facility Charges: $500 deductible (UHC in-network deductible, cross applies with SLUCare deductible; only $250 remains), then 20% coinsurance (20% x $4,750 = $950) –$250 + $950 = $1,200  TOTAL = $1,550, leaving $950 on your out-of-pocket maximum ($900 on the SLUCare specific out-of-pocket maximum) –PLUS PLAN  Doctor’s Charges: $0 deductible (SLUCare specific), 0% coinsurance –$0 + $0 = $0  Facility Charges: $250 deductible (UHC in-network deductible), then 10% coinsurance (10% x $4,750 = $475) –$250 + $475 = $725  TOTAL = $725, leaving $525 on your out-of-pocket maximum 7 S:\EB\Clients\SLU08\EE Communications\2010\Enrollment Presentation.pptx

9 Tips For You to Help Save Money  As an employee, you can take ownership in you and your family’s health care  Consumers can control costs by: –Using less expensive and more efficient providers (i.e., in-network) –Using appropriate providers (i.e., urgent care versus emergency room for non-emergencies) –Requesting generic prescriptions or prescriptions on lower tiers when available –Using mail order for maintenance prescriptions S:\EB\Clients\SLU08\EE Communications\2010\Enrollment Presentation.pptx 8

16 Flexible Spending Accounts Annual Enrollment 2011

17 Flexible Spending and Dependent Care Accounts  Administration will remain with ConnectYourCare  You must make a new election for the 2011 Plan Year; current elections cannot be carried forward  Due to National Health Care Reform, as of January 1, 2011, over- the-counter (OTC) medicines are no longer eligible for purchase with an FSA unless you have a prescription from your doctor  You can continue to use your FSA funds to purchase OTC items that are not considered a medicine or drug (e.g. bandages, splints, contact lens solutions, etc.)  Take these new rules into consideration when estimating the dollar amount you will put in your FSA in the upcoming plan year S:\EB\Clients\SLU08\EE Communications\2010\Enrollment Presentation.pptx 16

18 Flexible Spending and Dependent Care Accounts  Annual maximum for the health care FSA will remain at $5,000  Annual maximum for the Dependent Care Account Contribution will remain at $5,000 ($2,500 if married and filing separate returns)  For the health care FSA, your total election amount less previous reimbursements is available at the time of transaction  For the Dependent Care FSA, only the cash balance in your account is available at the time of transaction  You cannot roll over unused balances from one year to the next; carefully estimate your expenses for the next plan year… especially in light of the new OTC rules S:\EB\Clients\SLU08\EE Communications\2010\Enrollment Presentation.pptx 17

19 Flexible Convenience Card  Can be used at authorized vendors (medical facilities, hospitals, pharmacies, etc.)  Allows direct payment at time of service  If you have a prescription for an OTC medication, you must pay out-of-pocket (NOT with your FSA debit / convenience card) and submit a manual claim requesting reimbursement  Cards are good for three years!  So, if you currently have a Flexible Convenience Card, hold on to it! It will be reloaded with any election you make for 2011! S:\EB\Clients\SLU08\EE Communications\2010\Enrollment Presentation.pptx 18
