2016 ANNUAL BENEFITS ENROLLMENT

3

HEALTH PLAN • There will be a number of changes made to the EPO and PPO plans:

• Medical and prescription drug expenses will now be integrated under both plans. This means that, rather than a separate prescription drug deductible and out-of-pocket limit, the plan deductible and out-of-pocket limits will be shared between medical and prescription drug expenses.

• Urgent care and emergency room co-pays will be removed. These services will now be subject to deductible and coinsurance.

• In-Network outpatient imaging charges (for CT scans, MRIs, etc.) will now be subject to deductible and coinsurance. Outpatient lab and x-ray charges will continue to be covered under the office visit co-pay.

• There will be increases to premium contributions.

• While there are no plan design changes being made to the HDHP, there will be increases to premium contributions.

• If your spouse is enrolled in Marquette’s health plan, he/she must participate in the HRA process in order for you – the employee – to receive the 10% HRA premium discount. Your spouse’s participation does not affect your discount if he/she is not on your coverage. Covered children are not required to participate in the HRA.

DENTAL AND VISION PLANS • There are no plan design changes being made to the dental plan, only increases to premium

contributions.

• Annual digital retinal screenings will now be covered in full with no co-pay. Premium contributions remain unchanged.

As a Marquette University employee, you have access to comprehensive health care coverage to protect you and your family from catastrophic medical costs. In this section, you will find information on the three plans that Marquette offers. All plans use the same provider network (UnitedHealthcare Choice Plus) and cover the same services, but there are key differences in the way the cost for services is shared between you and the plan in regard to deductibles, co-pays and coinsurance. Take the time to understand how these plans work, the coverage each provides and how to use them to best meet the needs of you and your family.

BENEFITS COMPARISONPlease refer to rate sheet included in enrollment packet for part-time contributions.

HOW THE HDHP WORKS1. GET PREVENTIVE CARE FREE

In-Network preventive care is covered at 100%. You pay $0 out-of-pocket for your annual physical, routine immunizations and other recommended age- and gender-specific preventive screenings.

2. PAY FOR OTHER HEALTH CARE EXPENSES

You pay the full (discounted) cost for other medical and prescription drug expenses as you incur them until your annual deductible is met. Then, you pay a percentage of eligible expenses until your annual out-of-pocket maximum is satisfied. There are no co-pays under the HDHP.

3. USE YOUR HEALTH SAVINGS ACCOUNT (HSA)

Your HSA helps you cover your deductible and pay for other health care costs. Unused funds from your HSA roll over to the next year, and your account balance may earn interest (tax-free) over time. Please note that setting up an HSA is something you must do on your own, it is not facilitated by Marquette University.

TO QUALIFY FOR AN HSA:1. You must be enrolled in the HDHP.

2. You cannot be covered by Marquette’s FSA or a spouse’s FSA.

3. You cannot be covered by any other medical plan, including Medicare A and/or B.

4. You cannot be claimed as a dependent on someone else’s tax return.

WHAT’S DIFFERENT ABOUT AN HSA? • You are only eligible to open and contribute to an HSA if you participate in the HDHP. The money

you contribute is yours and is portable; it goes with you to be used for qualified medical expenses if you leave Marquette or when you retire.

• If you are enrolled in the HDHP, you may not participate in the Health Care FSA. However, you can pay for eligible medical, prescription drug, dental and vision expenses with your HSA dollars.

• If you are enrolled in the HDHP, you may still participate in the Dependent Care FSA.

ADDITIONAL HSA FEATURES • Withdrawals from HSAs for qualified medical expenses are tax-free. If you withdraw money for

any reason other than qualified medical expenses, you must pay income tax and a 20% IRS tax penalty.

• You must have a balance in your account to make a withdrawal.

• The maximum you can contribute to an HSA in one year is set by the IRS (in 2016, $3,350 for single coverage and $6,750 for family coverage). If you are age 55 or older, you can contribute additional catch-up contributions. It is your responsibility to make sure your HSA contributions do not go over the IRS maximum.

Important: In accordance with IRS regulations, if you are a new enrollee in the HDHP for 2016 (i.e., switching from the EPO or PPO Plan) and you have a balance in a Health Care FSA (as of December 31, 2015), you are not eligible to contribute funds to an HSA until April 1, 2016. Make sure your FSA balance is $0 by December 31, 2015.
