CHANGES TO ALL COOK HEALTH PLAN OPTIONS (EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 2017) Vision Plan - Exams and Eyeglass Lenses Covered Annually The new enhanced COOK vision benefits allow you to use the Anthem Blue View provider network for discounts on vision products and services. You can also go to any vision provider and receive out-of-network benefits. See attached summary. New Hearing Aid Benefit The COOK Health Plan will pay $3,000 per person every five calendar years for hearing aid products and supplies. Eligible charges are applied to the medical deductible and covered at 80% in-network. See attached summary.

Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account (DCFSA) Using a DCFSA is an excellent way to pay for dependent care expenses and lower your taxable income. You save by having money deducted from your pay pretax and deposited in a DCFSA to pay for eligible child care or elder care expenses. Reimbursements for these expenses from the DCFSA are tax free. See attached summary. Limited Purpose Health Flexible Spending Account (LPHFSA) Option For 2017, there will be two tax advantage HFSA options to choose from - the current General Purpose Health Flexible Spending Account (GPHFSA) and a new Limited Purpose Health Flexible Spending Account (LPHFSA). The LPHFSA is the option to elect if you have a spouse who is covered by a high deductible health plan and Health Savings Account (HSA) through their employer. Per IRS regulations, coverage in a GPHFSA is disqualifying coverage for a spouse to make or receive contributions to their HSA. The LPHFSA works just like the GPHFSA, but is limited to only reimbursing out- of-pocket dental and vision expenses and some preventive expenses. By limiting reimbursements to dental and vision expenses, your spouse remains eligible to participate in their employer’s HSA.

COOK is pleased to announce changes to the COOK Health Plan options and the addition of several new benefits for 2017.

CHANGES TO ALL COOK HEALTH PLAN OPTIONS (EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 2017)

Vision Plan - Exams and Eyeglass Lenses Covered Annually

The new enhanced COOK vision benefits allow you to use the Anthem Blue View provider network for discounts on vision products and services. You can also go to any vision provider and receive out-of-network benefits. See attached summary.

New Hearing Aid Benefit

The COOK Health Plan will pay $3,000 per person every five calendar years for hearing aid products and supplies. Eligible charges are applied to the medical deductible and covered at 80% in-network. See attached summary.

Screening CT Colonography

The CT Colonography has emerged as another screening tool for colon cancer in people who are at average risk for the disease. This new preventive service is covered by the COOK Health Plan in-network at 100% every 5 years for participants age 50 and over.

Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account (DCFSA)

Using a DCFSA is an excellent way to pay for dependent care expenses and lower your taxable income. You save by having money deducted from your pay pretax and deposited in a DCFSA to pay for eligible child care or elder care expenses. Reimbursements for these expenses from the DCFSA are tax free.

For 2017, there will be two tax advantage HFSA options to choose from - the current General Purpose Health Flexible Spending Account (GPHFSA) and a new Limited Purpose Health Flexible Spending Account (LPHFSA). The LPHFSA is the option to elect if you have a spouse who is covered by a high deductible health plan and Health Savings Account (HSA) through their employer. Per IRS regulations, coverage in a GPHFSA is disqualifying coverage for a spouse to make or receive contributions to their HSA.

HEALTH FLEXIBLE SPENDING ACCOUNT (HFSA)

Information for General Purpose and Limited Purpose HFSA OptionsYou may want to enroll in one of the HFSA options COOK is offering for 2017 and take advantage of the benefits listed below:

• A HFSA allows you to pay for out-of-pocket health care expenses including copayments, deductibles and coinsurance with pretax dollars and be reimbursed tax free.

• You have immediate access to your annual election on January 1, 2017.

• The annual HFSA maximum is $2,500.

• You are eligible to participate in a HFSA even if you are not enrolled in a COOK Health Plan option.

• You can only enroll in one HFSA option.

IMPORTANT: The last day (date of service) you can incur claims towards your 2017 GPHFSA or LPHFSA is December 31, 2017.However, you will have until March 31, 2018 to submit 2017 claims to the COOK Insurance Department for reimbursement. Funds remaining in a 2017 GPHFSA or LPHFSA after March 31, 2018 are forfeited.

Are You Making the Most of Your COOK Employee Benefits?Make certain to take full advantage of the benefits COOK offers because doing so can save you thousands of dollars in taxes. You get tax breaks on out-of-pocket health care expenses by contributing to a HFSA and now you can get additional tax breaks on day care and elder care expenses by contributing to a DCFSA. Don’t forget the tax breaks on the money you contribute to the COOK Profit Sharing 401k Plan. Make certain you are contributing at least 4% of your pay to the COOK Profit Sharing 401(k) Plan to maximize the 4% company match. All these benefits add up to significant tax savings over time.

New Health Plan ID CardYou will receive two new COOK Health Plan ID cards mailed to your home. In addition to the Anthem network information on the ID card, you will find contact and claim processing information for Delta Dental and TrueScripts.

2017 COOK Health Plan Employee Premiums

A DCFSA is a great way to pay dependent care expenses and lower your taxable income. It can be used to pay a child’s day care expenses or to pay custodial expenses for a disabled spouse or grandparent. The expenses must be incurred so you (and your spouse) can work. If you have a stay at home spouse, you should not enroll in a DCFSA.

How Does the DCFSA Work?

• Elect your DCFSA during open enrollment or during new hire open enrollment period.

• Contribute up to $5,000 maximum per year per family if your tax filing status is “married and filing jointly” and $2,500 maximum per year if tax filing is “married and filing single.” Minimum contribution amount is $100.

• Contributions are pre-tax; reimbursements are tax free.

• No advanced funding. You can only be reimbursed for funds in your DCFSA at the time you claim them.

• Reimbursements are processed on the Monday following each of your regular pay periods.

• Debit card and direct deposit available.

• “Use it or lose it.” Your DCFSA must be used for services incurred on or before December 31 of plan year. Funds remaining in your DCFSA after March 31 of the following plan year will be forfeited.

• Changes to a DCFSA election amount allowed outside of open enrollment with qualified IRS status change. The change must be consistent with the event.

• COOK Insurance Department processes your claims.

Qualifying Dependents

• A tax dependent of yours who is under age 13.

• A tax dependent of yours, such as a spouse or elderly parent, who is physically or mentally incapable of self-care and has the same principal residence as you.

What is a DCSA?

A DCFSA creates a tax break for dependent child care or day care expenses for children under age 13 or for children of any age who require custodial care because they are physically or mentally incapable of self-care. Additionally, it can be used for custodial day care for a disabled spouse or elderly parents who are considered an Internal Revenue Service (IRS) tax dependent and require someone to come into the home to assist with day-to-day living.

How do I save money on day care expenses?

You direct a portion of your pay into an account every regular pay period to pay for dependent care expenses. The money that you direct into a DCFSA is before taxes and reimbursements from the account are not taxed. You can use this account throughout the calendar year to pay dependent care expenses so you and, if married, your spouse can work. If you have a stay-at-home spouse you should not enroll in a DCFSA.

How do I enroll in a DCFSA?

You can enroll in a DCFSA during COOK’S annual open enrollment period. You cannot change your DCFSA election amount outside of open enrollment without experiencing a qualified IRS status change such as loss of a job or birth of a child. You can also enroll outside of open enrollment if you experience a qualified IRS status change.

Can my DCFSA contribution amount be changed?

You cannot change your DCFSA contribution amount outside of open enrollment without a qualified IRS status change.

How do I decide how much money to contribute to a DCFSA?

Estimate your day care expenses for the entire calendar year and take into consideration any school holidays, breaks or summer vacations. Before and after school expenses are allowable as well as some summer day camps. The maximum annual deduction is $5,000 per family if tax filing status is “married and filing jointly” and $2,500 if tax filing status is “married and filing separately.” The minimum contribution is $100.

What happens to unused funds in my DCFSA after the end of the year?

“Use it or lose it.” All funds in your DCFSA must be used for services incurred on or before December 31st of the plan year. You have until March 31st of the following plan year to submit claims for reimbursement from the prior year. Funds left in your account after March 31st of the following plan year are forfeited.

What happens if I stop working at COOK?

Your DCFSA contributions will stop. Expenses for dependent care expenses incurred after your termination date are not eligible for reimbursement. You have 60 days from your termination date to submit claims for services incurred on or before your termination date with COOK. Funds remaining in your account after 60 days will be forfeited.

If my spouse has a DCFSA, can we both contribute $5,000 each?

No. Your combined maximum contribution per family per calendar year is $5,000 or $2,500 for each account.

If I pay my 16-year old daughter to watch my 8-year old son after school, can I be reimbursed for payments made to my daughter?

No. You cannot be reimbursed for paying an older sibling that you (or your spouse) can claim as a dependent on your IRS tax filing. You also cannot be reimbursed for payments made to a child who is younger than age 19 at the end of the plan year.

If I have a DCFSA, do I need to report anything on my tax return at the end of the year?

Yes. You must list all people or organizations that provided care to your child or elderly dependent. You do this by filing Form 2441 – Child and Dependent Care Expenses along with Form 1040 (or Schedule 2 for Form 1040A).

If I have a DCFSA, can I claim the dependent care credit on my tax return?

No. You cannot claim any other tax benefit for the tax-free money you get under this DCFSA. Talk with your tax advisor for more details.

If I put $400 each month in my DCFSA and my actual expenses are $500 per month, should I submit a claim for $400 or  500?

You should submit a claim for the actual expense amount which is $500. If you have $500 in you DCFSA, you will be reimbursed for that amount. If not, the rest will be put on hold and reimbursed on the next reimbursement cycle when funds are in your account.

DEPENDENT CARE FLEXIBLE SPENDING ACCOUNT (DCFSA) FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Can I pay for dependent care expenses with a debit card?

The DCFSA comes with a debit card for you to use to pay for dependent care expenses. You can only swipe the debit card for the amount that is in your account at that time; otherwise, the entire transaction will be declined.

How can I keep track of my DCFSA activity?

Your account information can be viewed anytime by logging on to www.cookmedicalclaims.com.

You can view your current balance, claim status, and reimbursement history. You can also contact the COOK Insurance Department at 800.593.2080 for this information. You will need your COOK Health Plan ID number to log on to the www.cookmedicalclaims.com website.

How do I file a dependent care claim?

Claims for reimbursement can be filed manually. You pay for the dependent care services and send in the receipt along with a Dependent Care Claim Form to the COOK Insurance Department. Your child’s day care or elder care provider’s current Tax ID or SSN will also be required. Claims forms are available in your local HR office or on www.cookmedicalclaims.com website.

When are dependent care claims reimbursed?

Your reimbursement will be processed on the Monday following each of your payroll contributions until the end of the year. Reimbursement checks will be mailed to your home unless you have signed up for direct deposit.

How can I be reimbursed for re-incurring dependent care expenses?

COOK offers a time-saving re-incurring Dependent Care Claim Form that can be found online at www.cookmedicalclaims.com. This form saves you time as it only needs to be completed once at the beginning of each new plan year. No further dependent care claim submissions will be required by you for that plan year. Please keep in mind that you must submit a new claim form each plan year. The form must be signed and dated by your day care provider. Your child’s day care provider’s current Tax ID or SSN will also be required.

Is direct deposit an option?

Yes. To receive the reimbursement faster, send along a Direct Deposit Enrollment Form which can also be found online at www.cookmedicalclaims.com or in your local human resources office. Your reimbursement will be deposited in your bank account the next business day after Monday’s weekly check cycle following your DCHFSA payroll contribution.

DCFSA TAX SAVINGS EXAMPLES:

A DCFSA offers a better way to manage dependent care expenses and realize more tax savings. Your actual savings is based upon several factors including income, IRS filing status, tax bracket, the amount of income taxes you pay, and yearly dependent care expenses.

Effective January 1, 2017

What is a LPHFSA?

The new LPHFSA option works like the current General Purpose HFSA, but tax free reimbursements are limited to out-of-pocket dental and vison care expenses and some preventive care expenses. It cannot be used for the reimbursement of out-of-pocket medical expenses.

Why Would I Choose the LPHFSA?

The LPHFSA gives an employee who has a spouse covered by a Health Savings Account (HSA) through their employer a HFSA option. According to Internal Revenue Service Regulations, a person covered by a General Purpose HFSA is not eligible to participate in a HSA, but can enroll in a LPHFSA.

How Does it Work?

• Contribute up to $2,500 per calendar year into a LPHFSA to pay for eligible out-of-pocket dental and vision expenses. Cannot use for medical expenses.

• Elect your LPHFSA during open enrollment.

• Contributions are pretax.

• Reimbursements are tax free.

• Cook Insurance Dept. processes your claims.

• Debit card and direct deposit available.

• Use it or lose it – LPHFSA must be used for services incurred on or before December 31 of the plan year. Funds remaining in your LPHFSA after March 31 of the following calendar year are forfeited.

• Changes to a LPHFSA election amount allowed outside of open enrollment with qualified IRS status change.

Examples of Eligible Expenses

• Eligible out of pocket dental expenses for cleanings, x-rays, filings, crowns, orthodontia, dentures, and eligible dental expenses that exceed plan maximums.

• Eligible out-of-pocket vision expenses for exams, screening tests, eyeglasses, contact lenses, LASIK surgery and eligible vision expenses that exceed plan maximums.

Examples of Ineligible LPHFSA Expenses

• Medical expenses including deductibles, copays, and coinsurance

• Health plan premiums

• Cosmetic medical and dental procedures

• Over the counter medicines

Page 35: 2017 EMPLOYEE BENEFITS OPEN ENROLLMENT - …365c8847-fc30-4c78-b574... · ALL EMPLOYEES MUST TAKE ACTION BEFORE NOVEMBER 30, 2016. Enrollment in COOK employee health and life insurance

The online enrollment will take you through a series of easy to read screens to validate your personal information, add or delete dependents, and allow you to select your benefits for 2017.

For 2017, the online enrollment system offers you two ways to enroll in benefits:

1) If you don’t want to make any changes for 2017, you can use the “Quick Enrollment” screen to easily transfer your 2016 benefit elections into 2017.

2) If you need to make changes to your benefits for 2017, you must go through each benefit enrollment screen and make your individual benefit plan elections or declinations.

Whichever method you choose, please read the instructions on the enrollment screens before making your elections! The screens will display a per pay period cost for each selection and a cumulative 2017 cost per pay for all selections you have made up to that point. Selecting your benefits is a simple click of the button next to the plan best for you! If you choose not to elect a benefit, you must click on the “DECLINE” button. To save your elections at the end of the session make certain you click on the “SUBMIT ELECTION” button. “PRINT” and “SAVE” your 2017 Benefit Election Confirmation Statement. The internet address for the online benefits enrollment site is: www.mycookgroupbenefits.com

To begin your enrollment session:

1) You will need your 5 digit employee number. This can be found on your check stub. On the stub, your employee number is the last 5 numbers of the ID Number. A human resource representative can also help you determine your employee number.

2) The system will use your birth date as your temporary personal identification number (“PIN”) the first time you log into the system. The format of your birth date PIN is MMDDYY. If your birth date was May 10, 1955 you would enter 051055 in the system. You will then be asked to establish a new PIN that is different from your birth date, which should be used for all other times you use the system. However, you can continue to use your birth date as your new PIN.

ENROLLMENT SCREENS

Personal Information Screen

Please verify your personal information and make any changes in the non-shaded areas. Notify a human resource representative of any changes in the shaded areas. Make certain your home address is accurate.

Medical, Optional Term Life Insurance and Optional Accidental Death and Dismemberment Covered Dependents Screen

If you are enrolling your spouse and/or dependents in the COOK Health Plan (health plan), optional life insurance plan or the optional accidental death and dismemberment insurance plan, please have their social security numbers and birth dates handy before you begin your session. You will not be able to go to the next screen without this information. Make certain you click on the “DISK” symbol next to the dependent information you entered to ensure you have saved the information and enrolled your dependent.

Your spouse is NOT eligible for the COOK Health Plan if their employer offers health insurance, and the premium is less than $250 per month for single coverage. An ex- spouse cannot remain on the COOK Health Plan following a divorce unless the ex-spouse elects COBRA. It is your responsibility to notify the COOK Insurance Department within 30 days of a divorce and by the end of the month in which a son or daughter turns age 26.

Quick Enrollment Screen

The screen called “Quick Enroll “ allows you to make one click on “Elect 2017 Benefits the same as 2016” and you will be enrolled in the same benefits for 2017 that you had in 2015. This button is located at the bottom of the screen. Just click on it and you will be enrolled in the same health plan option, same health flexible spending account amount, the same optional term life insurance amount, the same accidental death and dismemberment insurance amount, and voluntary disability insurance options for 2017 that you had in 2015. New 2017 employee premiums will be highlighted in “red.”

2017 ONLINE BENEFITS ENROLLMENT INSTRUCTIONS

Health Care Flexible Spending Account (HFSA) Screen

The maximum annual election for your 2017 health flexible spending account is $2,500, and the minimum election is $100. You may elect this benefit, even if you are not participating in the health insurance. If you do not want to participate in a health flexible spending account for 2017, you must select “DECLINE” to continue. Your 2017 HFSA can only be used for out of pocket expenses incurred between January 1, 2017 and December 31, 2017.

You can also elect to have your health flexible spending account reimbursements deposited directly into your checking or savings account.

Because the COOK Group Health Plan (“Plan”) covers medical and surgical services for mastectomies, a federal law called the “Women’s Health and Cancer Rights Act of 1998” requires the Plan to also cover reconstructive surgery.

Therefore, if a participant or beneficiary of the Plan receives benefits in connection with a mastectomy and, in consultation with the patient’s attending physician, elects breast reconstruction in connection with the mastectomy, the Plan will cover the following services and supplies:

• Reconstruction of the breast on which the mastectomy has been performed

• Surgery and reconstruction of the other breast to produce a symmetrical appearance

• Prostheses

• The treatment of physical complications arising in all stages of mastectomy, including lymphedemas

Such coverage is, however, subject to the regular annual deductibles and coinsurance provisions of the Plan.

Please read this notice carefully and keep it where you can find it.

This notice has information about your current prescription drug coverage with the Cook Group Health Plan and about your options under Medicare’s prescription drug coverage. This information can help you decide whether or not you want to join a Medicare drug plan. If you are considering joining, you should compare your current coverage, including which drugs are covered at what cost, with the coverage and costs of the plans offering Medicare prescription drug coverage in your area. Information about where you can get help to make decisions about your prescription drug coverage is at the end of this notice.

IMPORTANT NOTICE FROM THE COOK GROUP HEALTH PLAN ABOUT YOUR PRESCRIPTION DRUG COVERAGE AND MEDICARE 2017

There are two important things you need to know about your current coverage and Medicare’s prescription drug coverage:

1. Medicare prescription drug coverage became available in 2006 to everyone with Medicare. You can get this coverage if you join a Medicare Prescription Drug Plan or join a Medicare Advantage Plan (like an HMO or PPO) that offers prescription drug coverage. All Medicare drug plans provide at least a standard level of coverage set by Medicare. Some plans may also offer more coverage for a higher monthly premium.

2. Cook Group has determined that the prescription drug coverage offered by the Cook Group Health Plan is, on average for all plan participants, expected to pay out as much as standard Medicare prescription drug coverage pays and is therefore considered Creditable Coverage.

Because your existing coverage is Creditable Coverage, you can keep this coverage and not pay a higher premium (a penalty) if you later decide to join a Medicare drug plan.

When Can You Join A Medicare Drug Plan?

You can join a Medicare drug plan when you first become eligible for Medicare and each year from October 15th to December 7th.

However, if you lose your current creditable prescription drug coverage, through no fault of your own, you will also be eligible for a two (2) month Special Enrollment Period (SEP) to join a Medicare drug plan.

What Happens To Your Current Coverage If You Decide To Join A Medicare Drug Plan?

If you decide to join a Medicare drug plan, your current Cook Group Health Plan coverage will not be affected. The Clinic Plan and Traditional Plan each have a prescription drug deductible of $300 per family per year. Generally, the Plan pays 80% of the cost of the drug and you pay the remaining 20% up to a $100 maximum for each 30-day supply. If you are a participant in the Clinic Plan and you do not purchase drugs from the Clinic pharmacy, then the Plan will pay only 50% of the cost of the drug. Brand name and generic drugs are covered by the Plan. There is no annual or lifetime maximum drug benefit. See pages 7-9 of the CMS Disclosure of Creditable Coverage To Medicare Part D Eligible Individuals Guidance available at https://www.cms.gov/Medicare/PrescriptionDrug-Coverage/CreditableCoverage/downloads/Updated_Guidance_02_15_07.pdf which outlines the prescription drug provisions/options that Medicare eligible individuals may have available to them when they become eligible for Medicare Part D.

If you decide to join a Medicare drug plan and drop your current Cook Group Health Plan coverage, you and your dependents will be able to get this coverage back during open enrollment.

When Will You Pay A Higher Premium (Penalty) To Join A Medicare Drug Plan?

You should also know that if you drop or lose your current coverage with the Cook Group Health Plan and don’t join a Medicare drug plan within 63 continuous days after your current coverage ends, you may pay a higher premium (a penalty) to join a Medicare drug plan later.

If you go 63 continuous days or longer without credible prescription drug coverage, your monthly premium may go up at least 1% of the Medicare base beneficiary premium per month for every month that you did not have that coverage. For example, if you go 19 months without credible coverage, your premium may consistently be at least 19% higher than the Medicare base beneficiary premium. You may have to pay the entire premium (a penalty) as long as you have Medicare prescription drug coverage. In addition, you may have to wait until the following October to join.

PREMIUM ASSISTANCE UNDER MEDICAID AND THECHILDREN’S HEALTH INSURANCE PROGRAM (CHIP)

If you or your children are eligible for Medicaid or CHIP and you’re eligible for health coverage from your employer, your state may have a premium assistance program that can help pay for coverage, using funds from their Medicaid or CHIP programs. If you or your children aren’t eligible for Medicaid or CHIP, you won’t be eligible for these premium assistance programs but you may be able to buy individual insurance coverage through the Health Insurance Marketplace. For more information, visit www.healthcare.gov.

If you or your dependents are already enrolled in Medicaid or CHIP and you live in a State listed below, contact your State Medicaid or CHIP office to find out if premium assistance is available.

If you or your dependents are NOT currently enrolled in Medicaid or CHIP, and you think you or any of your dependents might be eligible for either of these programs, contact your State Medicaid or CHIP office or dial 1-877-KIDS NOW or www.insurekidsnow.gov to find out how to apply. If you qualify, ask your state if it has a program that might help you pay the premiums for an employer-sponsored plan.

If you or your dependents are eligible for premium assistance under Medicaid or CHIP, as well as eligible under your employer plan, your employer must allow you to enroll in your employer plan if you aren’t already enrolled. This is called a “special enrollment” opportunity, and you must request coverage within 60 days of being determined eligible for premium assistance. If you have questions about enrolling in your employer plan, contact the Department of Labor at www.askebsa.dol.gov or call 1-866-444-EBSA (3272).

How We Protect Your Privacy

The Cook Health Plans and the Health Center are required to comply with federal and state privacy, security and genetic information protection laws in connection with your health information. This means that they can collect and use your health information only for purposes that are allowed under those laws, and must take steps to safeguard your data in accordance with the legal requirements. With respect to the privacy of your genetic information, it also means that the Health Plans, the Health Center and the third parties assisting them (Business Associates or subcontractors) are specifically prohibited from using your genetic information for purposes of insurance underwriting (i.e., setting rates or insurance coverage terms based upon genetic data).

How We Use and Disclose Your Protected Health Information

This section describes the ways that the Health Plans and the Health Center may use and disclose your protected health information without first seeking written authorization from you. Please note that for any of these disclosures, only the minimum necessary information (i.e., that which is necessary and relevant) from your medical record is disclosed.

• Treatment Your information may be used or disclosed in connection with treatment, such as sharing relevant information with other healthcare providers involved in your care.

• Payment Your information may be used or disclosed in connection with obtaining payment for your healthcare services or administering your insurance coverage.

• Healthcare Operations Your information may be used or disclosed for certain types of approved administrative purposes, such as to conduct an audit.

• Public Health Activities Your information may be used or disclosed in connection with public health activities that are authorized by law, such as to prevent or control disease, injury or disability.

• Health or Safety Your information may be used or disclosed to prevent or lessen a serious threat to your health or safety or that of the general public.

• Health Oversight Activities Your information may be used or disclosed in connection with government or regulatory oversight or compliance, such as to health authorities to report adverse events or product defects, to enable recalls or for similar safety reasons. It may also be accessible to agencies that evaluate billing or other legal or healthcare matters.

Uses and Disclosures With Your Written Authorization

Other than the uses and disclosures described in this Notice, the Health Plans and Health Center may not use or disclose your information without your written authorization. This includes, for example, any proposed use or disclosure of your information for a marketing or sales purpose. You may revoke any such authorization in writing except to the extent that the Health Plans and Health Center have already taken action in reliance on your authorization.

Your Individual Rights

Right to Request Additional RestrictionsYou have the right to request additional restrictions on certain uses and disclosures of your PHI to carry out treatment, payment or healthcare operations functions as described in this Notice. For example, you can request that your PHI be disclosed to certain family members or others who may assist with your medical care, and not be disclosed to others. While the Health Plans and Health Center will consider all requests carefully, they are not always required to agree to the requested restriction. If they agree to honor your request, the Health Plans/Health Center will not use or disclose your personal health information in the way you specified unless the information is needed to provide emergency treatment. If they are required to disclose restricted information due to an emergency, they will request assurances from the service provider that the service provider will not further disclose your personal health information.

Right to Avoid Disclosures to Health Plans for Payment or Healthcare OperationsYou have the right to request that your PHI not be provided to the Health Plans and/or Health Center in situations where the disclosure (1) is related to payment or healthcare operations, and (2) you paid for the service in full yourself, without any insurance reimbursement. This right must generally be exercised in advance of any treatment, and there are certain requirements to do so. Please ask the Benefits Department or Health Center medical staff for additional information.

Right to Receive Confidential CommunicationsIn certain circumstances, you may ask to receive confidential communications of PHI in a manner outside of the Health Plans’ or Health Center’s normal procedures. While all reasonable requests will be carefully considered, those entities are regrettably not able to agree to all requests.

Right to Inspect and Obtain a Copy of Your Personal Health InformationYou may ask to inspect or to obtain a copy of your personal health information that is included in certain records maintained by the Health Plans or Health Center. Under limited circumstances, they may deny you access to a portion of your records. In addition, this right does not apply to certain types of information – psychotherapy notes; information that may be used in a civil, criminal, or administrative action or proceeding; and information that is not part of the records  they maintain. You have the right to request your information in electronic format, provided that it is maintained in that format.

Right to Amend Your RecordsYou have the right to ask the Health Plans and/or Health Center to amend your personal health information that is included in certain records that they maintain. If it is determined by authorized representatives of those entities that the record is inaccurate, and the law permits the Health Plans/Health Center to amend the record, they will amend it. If your doctor or another person created the information that you want to change, you should ask that person to amend the information.

Right to Receive an Accounting of DisclosuresUpon request, you may obtain an accounting of disclosures of your personal health information made by the Health Plans, the Health Center or their respective business associates. The accounting will not include disclosures made earlier than three years before the date of your request, and certain other disclosures that are excluded by law. If you request an accounting more than once during any 12-month period, you will be charged a reasonable fee for each accounting statement after the first one. If you request an accounting relating to disclosures by business associates, the Health Plans/Health Center will either provide you with such an accounting directly, or they may choose to provide you with the contact information for those business associates, such that you may request an accounting directly from them.

Right to be Notified of Security Breaches Involving Your InformationIn accordance with the federal and state breach notification laws and requirements, you have the right to receive notification in the event that the Health Plans, Health Center or their respective Business Associates or subcontractors suffer a security breach involving your personal information.

Right to Receive a Paper Copy of this NoticeYou may contact the Cook Benefits Department or the Health Center to obtain an additional copy of this Notice at any time.

Copying FeesYou may be charged a reasonable fee to cover costs related to copying or preparing your information, in connection with requests for copies of your health records.

Revisions to this Notice

The terms of this Notice may be changed from time to time. If so, the additional protections contained in the updated Notice terms may be made effective for all of your PHI maintained by the Health Plans/Health Center, including any information that was created or received before the new Notice was issued. If this Notice is revised, the revised notice will be promptly delivered to all enrollees.

Amendment to The Health Plans

This Notice is also intended to serve as an amendment to the Health Plans. It is also a summary of material modifications to update your summary plan descriptions for the Health Plans. To the extent of these changes, this summary of material modifications takes precedence over your summary plan descriptions. You may inspect copies of the Health Plan documents themselves during normal business hours by contacting the Cook Group Benefits Department. As always, the Health Plan sponsor retains the right to terminate the Health Plans at any time and may amend or otherwise modify the Health Plans at any time.

Complaints

If you believe the Health Plans or Health Center has violated your privacy rights, you may file a complaint with the Health Plans, Health Center, or with the U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services. Complaints to the Health Plans or Health Center should be filed in writing with the Cook Global Privacy Office, P.O. Box. 1608, Bloomington, Indiana, 47402.
