Section 125 and Benefit Election Changes
Your Health Plan
Page 2 Benefits at a Glance
Under the Section 125 of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) code, you are allowed to pay for certain group insurance premiums with tax-free dollars. This means your medical, dental and vision premium deductions are taken before federal income and Social Security taxes are calculated. Depending on your tax bracket, your savings could be significant.
However, you must make your benefit elections carefully, including the choice to waive coverage, because your pretax elections will remain in effect until the next plan year, which begins in January of each year, unless you experience an IRS-approved qualifying change in status. Qualifying change in status events include, but are not limited to:
Marriage or divorce
Death of spouse or other dependent
Birth or adoption of a child
A dependent’s eligibility status changes due to age, student status, marital status, or employment
You or your spouse experience a change in work hours that affect benefit eligibility
Relocation into or outside of your plan’s service area.
If you experience a qualifying change in status event, you can make changes to your benefit elections provided your elections are consistent with the event and you notify Human Resources within 30 days of the event.
Vacation Innovations offers three Cigna plans
Before choosing a plan please refer to the “Medical Benefits at a Glance” chart for a comparison of each plans’ major provisions. The chart shows the amount the member is responsible for paying. These plans utilize the Cigna networks of providers and are designed to offer the most cost effective benefits available today.

A complete list of drugs within these categories can be found at www.MyCigna.com. Your health care provider will need to complete the corresponding forms and submit them to Cigna before you having the prescription(s) filled at the pharmacy. If you have any questions about the medications prescribed to you, you need to contact your physician. For coverage information you should contact Cigna at the number on your ID card.

Generic Medications An effective way to save on your out-of-pocket healthcare costs is to consider switching to generic drugs when appropriate. Generic medicines are approved to be as safe and effective as their brand-name
counterparts, and on average cost 50 percent less than brand name drugs.
Generic drugs contain the same active ingredients and are available in the same strength and dosage form as their brand-name counterparts. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulates the manufacturers of all generic drugs, which helps ensure their strength, quality and purity. The FDA also requires generic drugs to be absorbed into the body at the same rate and to the same extent as the branded product, which ensures that generic and branded products provide the same effectiveness in children, adults and the elderly. You can save the most money by choosing generic medicines when
available. Ask your doctor to authorize generic substitutions when medically appropriate.
$4 Generics!! Free Antibiotics!! Shop Around for Medications Another smart way to save on medication costs is to shop around and look for the best price! The cost of a prescription medication can vary greatly from one pharmacy to another, even within the same store chain. For example, your medication at one CVS or Walgreens is not always the same cost at a different CVS or Walgreens, right across the street! Before you drop off
the prescription to be filled, call ahead or check the pharmacy website to find out the cost.
Several pharmacies now offer special prescription programs, including $4 generic drugs and free antibiotics. For a list of the medications included in the programs, please visit the pharmacy’s website.
Wal-Mart, Sam’s Club and Neighborhood Market:
$4 generic medications per 30 day supply
