5 This option is the most similar to what you have today, with the deductible and out–of- pocket maximum adjusted to be at the mid- point of the market. As this option has the lowest deductible and out-of-pocket limit, it carries the highest premium contribution. Pharmacy: 20% member copay with a min/max of: Key Features of Market 400 Deductible – $400 single $800 family Out of Pocket - $1,500 single $3,000 family Office visit copay -- $30 Preventive care 100% in-network only Deductible and coinsurance applies to X-ray and imaging, inpatient and outpatient hospital, emergency room (+$75 copay) and durable medical equipment Office visit, pharmacy and emergency room copays do not apply to deductible or out-of-pocket maximum. Generic – $10/$20 Brand – $20/$40 Non-Formulary Brand – $40/$80 Specialty Pharmacy – $80/$160

6 The other plan features are identical to the Market 400. Eligible expenses are paid in the same manner in both options. Office visit copay -- $30 Preventive care – 100% in-network only Pharmacy: 20% member copay with a min/max of: Generic – $10/$20 Brand – $20/$40 Non-Formulary Brand – $40/$80 Specialty Pharmacy – $80/$160 Deductible and coinsurance applies to X-ray and imaging, inpatient and outpatient hospital, emergency room (+$75 copay) and durable medical equipment Office visit, pharmacy and emergency room copays do not apply to deductible or out-of-pocket maximum. Key Features of Value 750 Choosing a higher deductible is similar to the decision you make when you buy car insurance. You balance what you can afford to fix yourself vs. what you want your insurance to cover. It is always more expensive when you have a low deductible. This option lets you pay less in monthly premium. In exchange, you may need to pay a higher deductible before the plan begins to pay. Deductible -- $750, $1,500 Out of pocket limit -- $3,000, $6,000 Premium: 40% less than Market 400
