  • 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.

    Web Site: www.myCigna.com

    Cigna’s customized web site offers you and your covered dependents personalized benefit information, claims information, and more. Once you register on the secure web site you will be able to print temporary ID cards, find financial tools to help you spend your health care dollars wisely and other great tips.

    From the Cigna home page, select the Login tab then click the Register Now button. On the next screen type in your name, date of birth, and address then click Next. That’s all there is to it!

    You do not need to select a Primary Care Physician and you won’t need referrals to see a Specialist.

    This guide only highlights your benefits. Official plan and insurance documents actually govern your rights and benefits under each plan. It is the employee’s responsibility to request plan documents.

    Plans may be subject to exclusions and other limitations.

    Important Prescription Information

    Certain medications require pre-authorization or are subject to quantity limits and/or step therapy treatment. These programs encourage appropriate and cost effective use of prescription medications. 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.

    MyCigna.com

    Use the website to access provider networks, claims data, order ID cards, check medication costs and find tools and resources to help you use your benefits more efficiently. Find toolkits and tips for a healthy lifestyle and discounts for Cigna members.

  • 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

    $10 generic medications per 90 day supply

    Free Medication- Get your prescriptions for generic immediate-release Metformin (500mg, 850mg and 1000mg) FREE, up to a

    30 day supply (up to 90 tablets). There’s no limit to the number of refills of free medication you can receive.

    This additional information on generic drugs will help facilitate your search for the best deals to lower your prescription drug costs. As you conduct your own research, you may find many other cost-saving alternatives not listed in this benefit guide. The purpose of this article is not to instruct you to utilize these alternatives, but to enlighten you on various options available to you to help decrease costs and improve your health.

    Enrollment Rights Under HIPAA If you choose not to participate in the Vacation Innovations Benefit Programs, you will be required to sign a waiver of participation stating your reason for declining coverage. This is required due to future special enrollment considerations if you meet one of the qualified events under the Cafeteria Plan. You may only enroll in benefits during your initial eligibility period and each year at open enrollment unless you experience a qualifying event.

    Wallace Welch & Willingham is providing this benefit guide as a service for Vacation Innovations. The information is solely general guidance on the subjects covered and should not be considered as legal advice. This is only a highlight of the benefits provided by Vacation Innovations to be used as

    a quick reference for enrollment purposes. Employees should refer to the plan documents or summary plan descriptions for each plan for a more detailed explanation of all plan benefits

    including any limitations or exclusions associated with such plan. It is the employee’s responsibility to request copies of plan documents.
