Medical Plans

You have a choice between two medical plan options. Which option is right for you depends on you and your family’s specific health care needs. It’s important to consider all of the features and benefits of each plan when making a medical plan election. Below are some general guidelines, please carefully review both options in more detail below.

The HSA Plan is a high-deductible health plan that is paired with a tax-advantaged health savings account (HSA).

Key Highlights

  • In-network and out-of-network coverage is available; however, your annual deductible and out-of-pocket expense is lower, and the benefits payable are higher when using an in-network provider.
  • Preventive care services are covered at 100 percent when you see in-network providers.
  • You pay the full cost of your health care services (except for preventive care) and prescription drug expenses—using either the funds in your HSA or other sources—until you meet your annual deductible.
  • Once you satisfy the deductible, you and the plan share in the cost of your care—known as coinsurance—until you reach your out-of-pocket maximum for the year. The plan will then pay 100 percent of covered in-network expenses for the remainder of the calendar year.
  • As a participant in the HSA Plan, HomeServices will also contribute to your HSA to help you pay for eligible health care expenses.

With the EPO Plan option, you can use any doctor, clinic, hospital or health care facility in the network. There is no coverage if you go out of the network, except in emergencies.

Key Highlights

  • Preventive care services are covered at 100 percent when you see in-network providers.
  • Primary care office visits have a flat copay of $30 and specialist visits have a flat copay of $50.
  • Prescription drug costs are more predictable, most having a copay-based benefit.
  • If your doctor’s already in-network, or you are flexible about where you get care and can easily stay in-network, then choosing the EPO may mean a lower cost for you each month. 

Exceptions to the “In-Network” Requirement

In the event of a true emergency, going out-of-network may be covered under the EPO Plan. If you are experiencing an emergency such as a stroke or heart attack, go to the nearest emergency room whether or not it is an in-network provider. Most EPOs will cover the cost of emergency care received at the nearest out-of-network facility as though it was in-network care. However, if you need to be admitted to the hospital from the ER, UnitedHealthcare may ask the out-of-network ER to transfer you to an in-network hospital.

You never want to pay more than you have to for the things you need. The same is true for health care. The emergency room (ER) is the right place to go in a real emergency, but that is not always the level of care you need. For everything else, you’ll save time and money by exploring your options — including 24/7 Virtual Visits, where you can see and talk to a doctor online, anytime.

You have a variety of care options. Get to know them before you need care so you can make the right choice for your condition.
