    Cost-Sharing: The costs of medical care today can bestaggering. Health care coverage from Anthem can helpprotect you against these high costs. With most health care

    coverage, you pay a monthly premium, then you share someof the cost of covered medical care with the company thatprovides your health care coverage. The level of cost-sharingyou choose directly impacts your premium amount. The moreyou are willing to share in the costs, the lower your premium.With Anthem, you can choose your level of protection and thelevel of cost-sharing that works best for your health care needsand budget.

    Deductible is the amount you have to pay each calendaryear for covered services before your health care plan startspaying. For some services, the plan will even begin to paybefore the deductible is met. Usually, the higher a plans

    deductible, the lower the premium. In some cases, you mayalso have a separate deductible for certain services such asprescription drugs.

    Coinsurance is the percentage of the cost of coveredservices that you will be responsible for, after your annualdeductible is met. With some plans, you have a choice ofcoinsurance levels. Much like your deductible, selecting ahigher coinsurance typically lowers your monthly premiumbecause it increases your share of the cost.

    Copayment is a specific dollar amount you have to pay forcertain covered services.

    Out-Of-Pocket Maximum is the most that you would payin a calendar year for deductible and coinsurance for networkcovered services. Once you reach this maximum, the plan pays

    at 100% for most covered services for the rest of the calendaryear.

    Prescription Drugs are medications that must beauthorized for use by your doctor. Anthem offers varyinglevels of prescription drug coverage. Depending on the plan,you may have coverage for generic drugs or generic andbrand name drugs.

    Generic Drugs are prescription drugs that typicallyhave been in use for some time and can be manufacturedand distributed by numerous companies, so their cost isusually much lower. Generic drugs must, by law, contain thesame active ingredients as their brand name equivalent and

    have the same clinical benefit.

    Brand Name Drugs are prescription drugs that aremanufactured and marketed under a registered name. Theyare usually patented and may be exclusively offered bycertain manufacturers.

    Tiers represent a cost level within the generic and brandname prescription drug categories. The prescription drugcoverage under your health care plan will differ for each ofthese tiers. Not all products have this tiering.

    Tier 1: Generally includes generic drugs and a few lower costbrand name drugs.

    Tier 2: Generally includes higher cost generic and brandname drugs.

    Tier 3 and 4: Highest cost brand name drugs.

    Formulary is a list of prescription drugs our health careplans cover. They include generic and preferred brand namedrugs that have been rigorously reviewed and selected bya committee of practicing doctors and clinical pharmacistsfor their quality and effectiveness. Weve negotiated lowerprices on these formulary drugs, so youll save when yourdoctor prescribes medication from our formularies. Therecan be different formularies for different health care plans.Formulary lists can be found at anthem.com.

    Health Savings Account (HSA) is a special bankaccount that can be set up by a member enrolled in aqualified HSA-compatible high-deductible health plan.Contributions to this account can be made with certaintax advantages and funds from the account can be usedfor qualified health care expenses. See the insert from ourpreferred banking partner for more details and consultyour tax advisor.

    Network Discounts: With Anthem, you haveaccess to some of the largest provider networks inthe state. These network (or participating) providershave agreed to accept lower costs for their coveredservices to Anthem members similar to volumediscounts. These negotiated costs help reduce theoverall cost of covered medical services, including yourshare of those costs.

    This is true whether you are paying the entire cost forcovered services (such as while you are meeting yourdeductible), or whether we are sharing the cost. Withover 10,500 doctors and more than 125 hospitals,chances are your provider already participates. Just

    visit a network provider to take advantage of thesavings.

    With our PPO plans, you can always choose to receiveservices outside the network, but your share of thecost will be greater.

    Lumenos HSA PlusIs this the right plan for you?

    Prescription Drug CoverageLumenos HSA Plus not only puts you in charge of yourhealth care dollars, it can help you use those dollars fogeneric and brand name prescription drugs in the waythat best suits you.

    Once your deductible is met, there is a coinsurance,if applicable, for covered prescription drugs. But evenwhile you are meeting your deductible, you benefit fromlower negotiated rates on prescription drugs at networkpharmacies nationwide. Theres no need to have adifferent deductible or copayment for prescriptions; it al

    works as one.

    And since you decide how to spend it, your Health SavingsAccount dollars can be used to pay for prescriptiondrugs -- either while you are meeting your deductible, oafterward for those drugs not covered, like most over-thecounter medications.

    How to Customize yourLumenos HSA Plus PlanChoose your deductible: You can usually lower youpremium by choosing a higher deductible. Simply choosethe deductible and premium combination that works bestfor you. Remember, any covered member can contributeto some or all of the policy deductible and out-of-pocketmaximum, whether the policy covers one member or awhole houseful.

    Use your Health Savings Account the wayyou want: Your HSA, if you choose to open one, isfunded by you. So, it is yours to use for qualified healthcare expenses covered by the plan, or those not covere

    at all, like contact lenses. Your HSA is also yours to keeif you ever leave the plan; you wont lose those dollars itheyre not used. In fact, the carryover from year to yeacan help you save for future financial needs. See theenclosed insert from our preferred banking partner formore information.

    Other Optional Coverage: You can add moreprotection for you and your family by purchasingoptional dental benefits or life insurance. See your BeneGuide and the dental and life information in the back ofthis brochure for more details.
