• Your first paycheck in 2014 will be on January

• Your first paycheck of 2014 will be received on Friday, January 3rd. This paycheck will reflect time worked from December 15th – December 28th. Any benefit changes made during annual enrollment will be effective January 1, 2014, therefore your first premium deduction(s) for the 2014 plan year will appear on your January 17th paycheck. Please note, coverage will end on January 11th for any benefit you may be terminating. Therefore, the final premium will be deducted on your January 17th paycheck.

• There will be no deduction for medical and/or dependent flexible spending accounts on the January 3rd paycheck. The annual amount elected for these benefits will be divided over the course of 25 paychecks, instead of 26. For example, if you are enrolled in a flexible spending account at $1,000.00 annually, $40.00 will be deducted from your paycheck for 25 pay periods. The first FSA deduction for 2014 will appear on your January 17th paycheck.

• Remember to log onto Employee Self Service and review your paycheck deductions for your January 17th paycheck. Please contact the Benefits Department immediately at (225) 237-1573, if you notice any discrepancies. Listed below are some of the most commonly used benefit deduction codes that are shown on paychecks. You will only see the deduction codes for the benefits you are enrolled in.

If you are adding a dependent spouse or child(ren) to your health insurance plan you must complete a Dependent Eligibility Affidavit (DEA) in its entirety and return to the Benefits Department no later than November 15, 2013. Your coverage level will not be changed, and your dependent will not be added if a completed DEA is not received by this date. For your convenience a DEA has been included in this packet.

Effective January 1, 2014, the General Health System employee health plan will begin covering rental costs for hospital grade breast pumps, when rented through the Baton Rouge General Employee Pharmacy. Members that are utilizing this new plan feature will be required to pay the rental fee up-front at the pharmacy, and then file a claim for reimbursement with WEB TPA.

Effective January 1, 2014, our pharmacy benefit manager (PBM) will be changing from Medco/ExpressScripts to Catamaran Rx. Due to the change in PBM’s all employees who are enrolled in the health insurance plan will receive new ID cards.

Please be sure to destroy your old ID card and replace it with your new one. It is extremely

important that you present your new ID card at the pharmacy for prescriptions that you may be

filling on or after January 1, 2014.

If you fail to notify the pharmacy that you’ve had a change in pharmacy benefits it’s likely the pharmacist will try processing your prescription through our old PBM, and the claim will be denied.

If you are participating in the General Health System employee health plan it is your responsibility to make sure you are utilizing the appropriate network providers for your healthcare needs. Remember that inpatient and outpatient services must be performed at BRGMC or another GHS facility. If services are available at one of our facilities but preformed elsewhere – no coverage will be extended for the services incurred.

The Employee Health Plan utilizes the Verity Health Net provider network. A complete listing of the Verity Health Net provider network is available at www.verityhealth.com.

All health plan members should receive new ID cards by December 31, 2013. If you have not received your

new card by December 31st, please contact WEBTPA at (888)-792-2423.

As part of the requirements of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), the General Health System employee health plan will no longer apply pre-existing condition exclusions to any enrollee, effective

January 1, 2014.

disease, or critical illness policies during annual enrollment. An application must also be submitted if you are making changes to any existing polices you are currently enrolled in.

BRGeneral Fit! Employee Wellness

Incentive Card Eligibility for 2013-2014

Employees with a full-time (0.9 or 1.0) or part-time (0.8 or 0.6) status as of October 1, 2013 will be eligible for the wellness incentive card.

Wellness Incentive Cards will be awarded according to the following guidelines:

To qualify for the incentive card:

Full Time Employees

Part Time Employees

Complete the

Biometric Screening1

$100

$50

Complete the Body Mass Index (BMI) Evaluation

Additional $150

Additional $75

This year empl0yees may only earn the additional incentive if:

■ Their BMI was in the qualifying range at last year’s screening and remains in the qualifying range at this year’s screening

(see BMI chart on back)

or

■ If their BMI is greater than 27, their body weight must be

reduced by 5% from last year’s measurement2

(see example shown below)

IMPORTANT NOTE for 2013-2014:

Last year employees were offered the opportunity to

complete 4 out of 6 classes in the “Get Fit” educational

series as an alternate option to earn the additional

wellness incentive. However, this year the “Get Fit”

educational series will NOT be offered as an option for

earning the additional incentive.

Total Incentive = $250

Total Incentive = $125

Example: Based on last year’s screening, an employee with a height of 65 inches and a weight of 200 pounds would have a Body Mass Index of 33. Since this BMI is greater than 27, the employee would need to reduce their weight by 5% or 10 lbs (5% of 200 is 10). This employee would need to reduce their weight from 200 lbs to 190 lbs to be eligible for the additional incentive award.

1If you complete the required lab work and measurements as part of a visit to your primary care physician, send the

results to the BRGeneral Fit! team so the data can be recorded. 2If you did not participate in the biometric screening process last year, the BMI measurement will be taken at your initial

screening this year. If a reduction of weight is necessary to qualify for the additional incentive award, all employees will

have until June 30, 2014 to follow up with the BRGeneral Fit! team with regard to their final weight/BMI measurement.

Important Notice from GENERAL HEALTH SYSTEM About Your Prescription Drug Coverage and Medicare

Please read this notice carefully and keep it where you can find it. This notice has information about your current prescription drug coverage with GENERAL HEALTH SYSTEM 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.

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. GENERAL HEALTH SYSTEM has determined that the prescription drug coverage offered by the General Health System Employee 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 GENERAL HEALTH SYSTEM coverage will not be affected.

If you do decide to join a Medicare drug plan and drop your current General Health System Employee Health Plan coverage, be aware that you and your dependents will not be able to get this coverage back. 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 General Health System Employee 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 creditable prescription drug coverage, your monthly premium may go up by 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 nineteen months without creditable coverage, your premium may consistently be at least 19% higher than the Medicare base beneficiary premium. You may have to pay this higher 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. For More Information About This Notice Or Your Current Prescription Drug Coverage… Contact the General Health System Benefits Department for further information. NOTE: You’ll get this notice each year. You will also get it before the next period you can join a Medicare drug plan, and if this coverage through the General Health System Employee Health Plan changes. You also may request a copy of this notice at any time.

providers or call 1-866-889-

• Co-payments are fixed dollar amounts (for example, $15) you pay for covered healthcare, usually when you receive the service.

• Co-insurance is your share of the costs of a covered service, calculated as a percent of the allowed amount for the service. For example, if the plan’s allowed amount for an overnight hospital stay is $1,000, your co-insurance payment of 20% would be $200. This may change if you haven’t met your deductible.

• The amount the plan pays for covered services is based on the allowed amount. If an out-of-network provider charges more than the allowed amount, you may have to pay the difference. For example, if an out-of-network hospital charges $1,500 for an overnight stay and the allowed amount is $1,000, you may have to pay the $500 difference. (This is called balance billing.)

• This plan may encourage you to use participating providers by charging you lower deductibles, co-payments and co-insurance amounts.

General Health System: Basic Option Coverage Examples

Coverage Period: 01/01/2014 – 12/31/2014

Coverage For: All Basic Option Participants │Plan Type: PPO

Questions and Answers About the Coverage Examples:

What are some of the assumptions behind the Coverage Examples?

• Costs don’t include premiums.

• Sample care costs are based on national averages supplied by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, and aren’t specific to a particular geographic area or health plan.

• The patient’s condition was not an excluded or preexisting condition.

• All services and treatments started and ended in the same coverage period.

• There are no other medical expenses for any member covered under this plan.

• Out-of-pocket expenses are based only on treating the condition in the example.

• The patient received all care from in- network providers. If the patient had received care from out-of-network

providers, costs would have been higher.

What does a Coverage Example show?

For each treatment situation, the Coverage Example helps you see how deductibles, co- payments, and co-insurance can add up. It also helps you see what expenses might be left up to you to pay because the service or treatment isn’t covered or payment is limited.

Does the Coverage Example predict my own care needs?

No. Treatments shown are just examples.

The care you would receive for this condition could be different based on your doctor’s advice, your age, how serious your condition is, and many other factors.

Does the Coverage Example predict my future expenses?

No. Coverage Examples are not cost

estimators. You can’t use the examples to estimate costs for an actual condition. They are for comparative purposes only. Your own costs will be different depending on The care you receive, the prices your providers charge, and the reimbursement Your health plan allows.

Can I use Coverage Examples to compare plans?

Yes. When you look at the Summary of

Benefits and Coverage for other plans, you’ll find the same Coverage Examples. When you compare plans, check the “Patient Pays” box in each example. The smaller that number, the more coverage the plan provides.

Are there other costs I should consider when comparing plans?

Yes. An important cost is the premium you

pay. Generally, the lower your premium, the more you’ll pay in out-of- pocket costs, such as co-payments, deductibles, and co-insurance. You should also consider contributions to accounts such as health savings accounts (HSAs), flexible spending arrangements (FSAs) or health reimbursement accounts (HRAs) that help you pay out-of-pocket expenses.

• Co-payments are fixed dollar amounts (for example, $15) you pay for covered healthcare, usually when you receive the service.

• Co-insurance is your share of the costs of a covered service, calculated as a percent of the allowed amount for the service.

General Health System: High Option Coverage Examples

Coverage Period: 01/01/2014 – 12/31/2014

Coverage For: All High Option Participants │Plan Type: PPO

Questions and Answers About the Coverage Examples:

What are some of the assumptions behind the Coverage Examples?

• Costs don’t include premiums.

• Sample care costs are based on national averages supplied by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, and aren’t specific to a particular geographic area or health plan.

• The patient’s condition was not an excluded or preexisting condition.

• All services and treatments started and ended in the same coverage period.

• There are no other medical expenses for any member covered under this plan.

• Out-of-pocket expenses are based only on treating the condition in the example.

• The patient received all care from in- network providers. If the patient had received care from out-of-network

providers, costs would have been higher.

What does a Coverage Example show?

For each treatment situation, the Coverage Example helps you see how deductibles, co- payments, and co-insurance can add up. It also helps you see what expenses might be left up to you to pay because the service or treatment isn’t covered or payment is limited.

Does the Coverage Example predict my own care needs?

No. Treatments shown are just examples.

The care you would receive for this condition could be different based on your doctor’s advice, your age, how serious your condition is, and many other factors.

Does the Coverage Example predict my future expenses?

No. Coverage Examples are not cost

estimators. You can’t use the examples to estimate costs for an actual condition. They are for comparative purposes only. Your own costs will be different depending on The care you receive, the prices your providers charge, and the reimbursement Your health plan allows.

Can I use Coverage Examples to compare plans?

Yes. When you look at the Summary of

Benefits and Coverage for other plans, you’ll find the same Coverage Examples. When you compare plans, check the “Patient Pays” box in each example. The smaller that number, the more coverage the plan provides.

Are there other costs I should consider when comparing plans?

Yes. An important cost is the premium you

pay. Generally, the lower your premium, the more you’ll pay in out-of- pocket costs, such as co-payments, deductibles, and co-insurance. You should also consider contributions to accounts such as health savings accounts (HSAs), flexible spending arrangements (FSAs) or health reimbursement accounts (HRAs) that help you pay out-of-pocket expenses.

Dependents who may be covered under your medical benefit plans are one of the following:

A child under 26 years of age, which includes natural children, step children & adopted children. Children who are eligible for their own employer-sponsored coverage are not considered eligible dependents for the health insurance plan.

Unmarried, totally disabled children over 26 who are incapable of self-sustaining employment as the result of a mental or physical handicap.

Please list the dependents that are eligible to be covered under your health insurance plan election.

If your spouse is enrolled on both their employer’s plan and the COMPANY plan standard coordination of benefit rules will apply for all applicable benefits. Therefore the COMPANY plan will pay spousal claims on a secondary basis for all applicable benefits.

If your spouse is enrolled in family coverage on their employer’s plan and you are enrolled in family coverage on the COMPANY plan standard coordination of benefit rules will apply. Therefore primary coverage for eligible dependent children will be assigned to the plan of the parent whose birthday occurs earliest in a calendar year. Secondary coverage will be assigned to the plan of the parent whose birthday occurs latest in a calendar year.

I certify that the answers provided on this form are true and correct. A person may be committing insurance fraud if he or she submits a form containing a false or deceptive statement with the intent to defraud (or knowing that he or she is helping to defraud). I acknowledge that I am responsible for any future and past claims incurred by ineligible dependents. I understand that, at any time, the COMPANY may require me to provide legal documentation to support my dependents’ eligibility status.

Read, Sign and Date Below

I understand and agree that: • The information provided on this Enrollment and Statement of Health form is true and correct to the best of my knowledge. • The insurance requested will become effective in accordance with the individual effective date information in the Policy; any amount

subject to evidence of insurability will not become effective until approved by Reliance Standard and Reliance Standard has the right to refuse my request. Coverage is subject to a minimum participation requirement at the employer level and if the minimum is not met, coverage may not be issued even though an enrollment form has been completed. An effective date is subject to eligibility requirements, satisfaction of service waiting period (if applicable) and payment of first premium when due. An effective date may be deferred for an employee not actively at work and enrolled dependents confined to a hospital or at home.

• Benefits are subject to terms and conditions of the Policy. • For age-banded rate plans, premiums increase as an employee moves from one age band to the next. • If payroll deduction of premiums begins prior to Reliance Standard’s processing of the enrollment form, it does not mean coverage is in

effect; premiums paid for coverage not issued will be returned. I further understand and agree that if I am applying after the expiration of my initial eligibility period, all medical tests and costs for attending physician reports may be without expense to Reliance Standard Life Insurance Company and I may be responsible for paying the expenses, if any. I acknowledge receipt of the "Designation of Beneficiary" form and “Important Information Regarding Applications for Insurance” and “Notice Regarding Information Practices”. If a Designation of Beneficiary form is not completed or one is not on file with the Plan Administrator, the provisions of the Policy will determine to whom benefits, if any, will be payable. AUTHORIZATION: I authorize any licensed physician, medical practitioner, hospital, clinic or other medical or medically related facility, insurance company, organization, institution, person or the MIB, Inc. to release any information or record(s) on me or my health to be used in determining the acceptability of my application for insurance. I authorize any such information or record(s) to be released to Reliance Standard Life Insurance Company, its reinsurers or authorized representatives. I also authorize Reliance Standard or its reinsurers to make a brief report of my personal health information to the MIB. This authorization, or a photographic copy, shall be as binding as the original and valid for a period not exceeding twelve (12) months from this date. I understand that I (or my authorized representative) will be sent a copy of this Authorization upon request. Please Note: During an approved enrollment, guaranteed issue amounts of insurance will not require a Statement of Health form provided the Enrollment form is complete, signed and received by your employer during your enrollment period and: a) you are not a late applicant with respect to insurance for yourself; or b) during your present service with your employer or an affiliate, you have not, with respect to insurance with Reliance Standard or an affiliate: had an application withdrawn; been previously declined; had coverage postponed; or voluntarily terminated; or c) the enrollment period is not one with specific guaranteed issue/health acceptability rules.

NOTICE REGARDING INFORMATION PRACTICES In considering this Application, Reliance Standard Life Insurance Company ("we", "us" or "our") collects certain information about all proposed insureds ("you" or "your"). The precise information varies according to the amount and type of coverage you apply for. Generally, we seek information about your: (1) age; (2) occupation; (3) physical condition; (4) medical history; (5) hobbies; and (6) other relevant activities. You are the most important source of information, but we may also verify or collect information on you or your family from: (1) physicians; (2) other health care providers; (3) employers; (4) other insurers to which you have applied; (5) consumer investigative organizations; and (6) the MIB, Inc. The MIB is a not-for-profit organization of life insurance companies which operates an information exchange for its members. This information may alert us to a need for further investigation, but under MIB rules such information cannot be used: (1) either wholly or in part to increase the premium for insurance; or (2) to deny issuance of insurance. We may collect information by: (1) phone; (2) correspondence; or (3) personal contact. Information will be treated as confidential. Reliance Standard Life Insurance Company or its reinsurers may, however, with your authorization make a brief report to the MIB. If you apply to another MIB member company for life or health insurance coverage, or a claim for benefits is submitted to such a company, the MIB, upon request, will supply such company with the information in its file. The information supplied to other member companies may alert them to a need for further investigation. In some circumstances, however, information may be released to third parties without your authorization (with the exception of the MIB). These include persons or organizations who are: (1) performing business functions for us; (2) conducting actuarial or scientific studies or audits; or (3) our reinsurers. We or our reinsurers may also release information to other life insurance companies to whom you apply for life or health insurance coverage, or to whom a claim for benefits is submitted. Please be assured that although such disclosures may occur, they are not always or even often made. When a disclosure is necessary, only as much information as is reasonably necessary to achieve the intended purpose will be disclosed. You have the right to acquire and, if necessary, correct any personal information we or the MIB collect. Upon written request to us, we will within 30 days of receipt: (1) inform you of the nature and substance of the recorded information; (2) permit personal viewing and copying of the information in our possession; (3) disclose the identities of those persons such information has been disclosed to within the last two years; and (4) provide you with procedures for correction, amendment or deletion of the recorded information. Medical information will be disclosed to a physician that you choose. You may write to us for a fuller explanation of our information practices. You may also contact the MIB via its website (www.mib.com) or by telephone to arrange for disclosure of any information it may have on you. The MIB's toll-free telephone number is 866-692-6901. If you question the accuracy of information in the MIB's file, you may contact the MIB in writing and seek correction in accordance with the procedures set forth in the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act.

Generally, we seek information about your: (1) age; (2) occupation; (3) physical condition; (4) medical history; (5) hobbies; and (6) other relevant activities. You are the most important source of information, but we may also verify or collect information on you or your family from: (1) physicians; (2) other health care providers; (3) employers; (4) other insurers to which you have applied; (5) consumer investigative organizations; and (6) the MIB, Inc. The MIB is a not-for-profit organization of life insurance companies which operates an information exchange for its members. This information may alert us to a need for further investigation, but under MIB rules such information cannot be used: (1) either wholly or in part to increase the premium for insurance; or (2) to deny issuance of insurance. We may collect information by: (1) phone; (2) correspondence; or (3) personal contact. Information will be treated as confidential. Reliance Standard Life Insurance Company or its reinsurers may, however, with your authorization make a brief report to the MIB. If you apply to another MIB member company for life or health insurance coverage, or a claim for benefits is submitted to such a company, the MIB, upon request, will supply such company with the information in its file. The information supplied to other member companies may alert them to a need for further investigation. In some circumstances, however, information may be released to third parties without your authorization (with the exception of the MIB). These include persons or organizations who are: (1) performing business functions for us; (2) conducting actuarial or scientific studies or audits; or (3) our reinsurers. We or our reinsurers may also release information to other life insurance companies to whom you apply for life or health insurance coverage, or to whom a claim for benefits is submitted. Please be assured that although such disclosures may occur, they are not always or even often made. When a disclosure is necessary, only as much information as is reasonably necessary to achieve the intended purpose will be disclosed. You have the right to acquire and, if necessary, correct any personal information we or the MIB collect. Upon written request to us, we will within 30 days of receipt: (1) inform you of the nature and substance of the recorded information; (2) permit personal viewing and copying of the information in our possession; (3) disclose the identities of those persons such information has been disclosed to within the last two years; and (4) provide you with procedures for correction, amendment or deletion of the recorded information. Medical information will be disclosed to a physician that you choose. You may write to us for a fuller explanation of our information practices. You may also contact the MIB via its website (www.mib.com) or by telephone to arrange for disclosure of any information it may have on you. The MIB's toll-free telephone number is 866-692-6901. If you question the accuracy of information in the MIB's file, you may contact the MIB in writing and seek correction in accordance with the procedures set forth in the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act. The address of the MIB's information office is 50 Braintree Hill, Suite 400, Braintree, Massachusetts 02184-8734.

Community Property Laws—If you are married, reside in a community property state (Arizona, California, Idaho, Louisiana, Nevada, New Mexico, Texas, Washington or Wisconsin), and name someone other than your spouse as beneficiary payment of benefits may be delayed or disputed unless your spouse also signs the beneficiary designation. Spouse Signature Date

Owner Signature Date

GUIDELINES FOR DESIGNATION OF BENEFICIARIES General - Please be sure to include the beneficiary’s full name, social security number and relationship to you. Providing this information can help expedite the claim process by making it easier to locate and verify beneficiaries. Minors - While you may designate minors as beneficiaries, please note that claim payments may be delayed due to special issues raised by these designations. In the event of a claim and the beneficiary is a minor child, the insurance proceeds will not be released to the minor child. The insurance proceeds may be paid to a duly appointed guardian of the child’s estate. You may want to obtain the assistance of an attorney in drafting your beneficiary designation. Trust as Beneficiary - You may designate a trust as beneficiary, using the following form: “To [name of trustee], trustee of the [name of trust], under a trust agreement dated [date of trust].” If you wish to designate a testamentary trust as beneficiary (i.e., one created by will), you should recognize the possibility that your will, which was intended to create this trust, may not be admitted to probate (because it is lost, contested, or superseded by a later will). Claim payment delays can result if the beneficiary designation doesn’t provide for this situation. Life Status Changes - We recommend that you review your beneficiary designation when significant life status events occur, such as marriage, divorce, or birth of a child. See an Attorney! The above guidelines are general and are not intended to be relied on as legal advice. Unless your designation is a simple one, we recommend that you obtain the assistance of an attorney in drafting your beneficiary designation. A qualified attorney can help assure that your beneficiary designation correctly reflects your intentions, is clear and unambiguous, and meets legal requirements.
