Introduction _______________________________________________________________________________ My Choice Rewards continues to give you more choices. Whether it’s enhancing new medical options, helping you make healthier lifestyle choices or making the employee enrollment selection experience easier, it’s all about choice. Open enrollment for 2018 My Choice Rewards will take place Monday, Nov. 6 – Monday, Nov. 20, 2017. Benefit selections will be effective Jan. 1, 2018. Annually, you have the opportunity to re-examine your benefit needs and make any changes you choose. Once open enrollment begins, click here. Employees who are new hires or rehires during 2018 will receive an email notification to enroll in their benefits and will have 10 days from receipt of that email to make their benefit elections. Employees who experience a qualified life event (see chart on pages 38-40) have 30 days from the date of the life event to make benefit changes. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) regulations allow changes to benefits during an annual open enrollment or if an employee experiences a qualified life event.
How My Choice Rewards Works _______________________________________________________________________________ My Choice Rewards offers a variety of options under each benefit category. Each option has a different cost, corresponding to the degree of coverage provided. You can select a particular benefit category, depending on your changing needs. My Choice Rewards provides all full-time employees with credits to assist in purchasing their benefit selections. Part time employees do not receive credits. Once you’ve made all of your selections, simply add up the costs of each option and subtract them from your total credits. If you’ve chosen to purchase more benefits than you have credits for, the difference will be subtracted from your pay in equal amounts per pay period. Most benefits can be purchased on a pre-tax basis, with the exception of dependent life insurance and voluntary benefits.
3 2018 MY CHOICE REWARDS
The benefits offered under My Choice Rewards are designed to conform to Section 125 of the Internal Revenue Code, and as such may provide significant tax advantages to you as well as Henry Ford Health System. To maintain its tax-qualified status, the My Choice Rewards plan must adhere to the regulations established by the IRS. These requirements will be summarized in the appropriate sections of this workbook. This workbook is intended to summarize the key features of each benefit offered under My Choice Rewards. You are encouraged to consult with your financial planner or tax advisor before making your benefit selections. HFHS reserves the right to modify or discontinue any of its benefits at any time.
YOUR MY CHOICE REWARDS SELECTIONS
Eligible employees may purchase benefits from the following categories: • Medical/vision • Dental • Standalone vision • Employee term life insurance • Dependent term life insurance • Accidental death and dismemberment (AD&D) • Long-term disability • Health savings (HSA) • Health care flexible spending (FSA) • Dependent care flexible spending (FSA) • Critical illness insurance • Accident insurance • Group legal insurance • Identity theft insurance
TAX IMPLICATIONS The Social Security benefit you will be eligible to receive is based in part on the amount of income you have that is subject to Social Security tax. By enrolling in My Choice Rewards, you will have less income subject to Social Security taxes. Consequently, the benefits you or your family may receive from Social Security may be reduced based on the amount of the reduction in your pay as a result of your pretax contributions for My Choice Rewards.

Use the following guidelines to determine if your enrolled dependents meet eligibility requirements:
Eligible dependents: • Your spouse.

They can also be married. • Any unmarried disabled child regardless of age who depends primarily on you for , provided the physical or mental disability occurred before age 19. • “Child” is defined as natural children, legally adopted children (including children placed for adoption for whom legal adoption proceedings have started), step-children, and alternate recipients under qualified medical child orders (QMCSO), and any other child for whom you have obtained legal guardianship and who is in a regular parent-child relationship.

HEALTH PLANS FOR THOSE TURNING 26 HAP Personal Alliance provides coverage for individuals turning 26 and aging off their parents’ health plan. This is a life event that qualifies the individual to sign up by the end of the month the individual turns 26. During the special enrollment period, you or your dependent can obtain coverage under a separate contract/policy. Visit hap.org for more information on the policies designed for young adults.
NEW FOR 2018: The former HFHS Preferred Network and the Full HAP Network HMO are combined into a single plan
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Medical plan designs for 2018 are intended to encourage employees and their families to receive their care from Henry Ford providers using HAP insurance products. The benefit to employees is lower out-of-pocket costs and high quality, coordinated care through Henry Ford providers. The HFHS Preferred Network and the Full HAP Network HMO options have been combined into one new medical option called the HFHS Advantage Tiered Access plan. The plan has two “in-network” tiers. Tier 1 has a network of HFHS and other providers and offers lower deductibles and co-pays. Employees may choose physicians from the Henry Ford Physician Network (HFPN), the Jackson Health Network and the Genesys Network. As a reminder, the HFPN includes the Henry Ford Medical Group, hospital-employed physicians and some private practice physicians on staff at Henry Ford facilities. Tier 1 also includes all Henry Ford facilities, as well as Genesys Regional Medical Center.
Tier 2 has a broader network of HAP providers and facilities but also comes with significantly higher deductibles and co-pays. This new plan encourages employees to use Henry Ford providers and facilities but does provide flexibility for those who may want or need to go outside Henry Ford for care without changing plans. Instead of choosing one plan over another at open enrollment, the two-tier system allows employees to determine the network they want to use at the time service is required. For example, if your P is in Tier 1 but you want to see a specialist in Tier 2, you can do that within this new, single-plan option. However, employees who use both tiers are required to meet the deductible maximums of both.

Other important points to consider: • Employees who choose this option – whether they were in the HFHS Preferred or Full HAP option previously – will have the same per-pay contribution because it is now a single plan. • Employees previously enrolled in the HFHS Preferred Network (HMO) option who choose the new option will see their per pay contribution increase by $3.57 for employee only coverage and $21.52 for family coverage. • Employees in the current Full HAP option will see a per-pay decrease ranging from $39.67 for employee only coverage to $90.56 less for family coverage. Although this is a significant reduction for employees currently enrolled in the Full HAP option, it is important to think about the higher out of pocket costs associated with providers/services in Tier 2. Do not just focus on the reduced medical deduction taken from each pay. • Due to increased deductibles, co-pays and coinsurance in Tier 2, employees currently enrolled in the Full HAP Network option should review all medical plans - including the Consumer Driven Health Plans (CDHP) – and select the one that best meets their needs. See page 8 for details.
Employee contributions for other benefits Medical and dental s and contributions do change annually, however, this year an increase is being ed on to employees in the majority of plans. Effective Jan. 1: • Employees in the CDHP Basic Full HAP option will see a slight increase for employee only coverage at $2.19 per pay and $12.26 per pay for family coverage. • Employees in the CDHP Comprehensive HFHS Preferred option will see a slight increase of $1.13 for employee only coverage and $10.41 per pay for family coverage. • Employees in the CDHP Comprehensive Full HAP option will have an increase of $9.93 per pay for employee only coverage and $40.56 per pay for family coverage. • Employees in the Community Blue (PPO) option will have a significant increase of $55.77 per pay for employee only coverage and $134.71 per pay for family coverage. • Employees enrolled in the Dental options, Long Term Disability and the Standalone Vision options will have a slight decrease in their per pay contributions. • To simplify employee contributions for 2018, the medical credit of $25.38 per pay and the dental 7 2018 MY CHOICE REWARDS

credit of $2.31 have already been reduced from the employee contributions and will no longer appear in the online enrollment process or on the paycheck. For employee medical contributions see pages 12 and 21. For employee vision and dental contributions see pages 23 and 26. The deductibles for the CDHP Comprehensive HFHS Preferred and CDHP Comprehensive Full HAP options are increasing slightly. For employee only, the deductible is $1,350 and for family coverage (two or more individuals) it is $2,700. The maximum limit employees may contribute to their HSA (including employer contributions) are increasing to $3,450 for an individual and $6,900 for family (two or more). The maximum limit for the health care flexible spending is increasing to $2,650.
Health Engagement is being replaced by Reward Your Health •
•
•
•
•
The Health Engagement program has been redesigned and is taking wellness to a new level. Reward Your Health is the new wellness program for HFHS employees and their spouses enrolled in a HAP plan. Annual deductibles and co-pays will no longer be affected. Instead, employees and covered spouses who meet the requirements, will pay a lower employee contribution to their medical coverage each pay and/or receive funding to a health savings for those employees enrolled in one of the three CDHP options. For 2018, all employees enrolled in a HAP plan will receive the reduced employee contribution and/or funding to their HSA. To keep receiving this reward in 2019, employees and their covered spouse must meet the Reward Your Health wellness program requirements between Jan. 1 and July 31, 2018. Rewards are adjusted annually and communicated during open enrollment. Reward Your Health has five requirements that must be completed by employees and their covered spouse by July 31, 2018. 1. Know your numbers (BMI, blood pressure, cholesterol, fasting blood glucose) 2. Take your online health assessment 3. Be tobacco free 4. Complete a wellness activity 5. Commit to complete all recommended preventive screenings. Health Fairs will be conducted in the first quarter of 2018.
New Voluntary Benefit Options HFHS is offering accident insurance, critical illness insurance and identity theft protection insurance. These are new, voluntary benefits, which means there is a cost associated with them. • Accident insurance pays you benefits for specific injuries and events resulting from a covered accident that you or a family member may have on or after your coverage effective date. Critical illness insurance pays a lump-sum benefit if you are diagnosed with a covered illness or condition on or after your coverage effective date. Identity Theft coverage provides identity, financial and privacy protection. • As part of the online enrollment process, employees will now be able to enroll in any of the three new voluntary benefits options, as well as group legal. Employees no longer have to ARAG directly to enroll in the group legal plan. • HFHS continues to offer auto/home insurance, pet insurance and Purchasing Power, a purchasing program offering brand name products through payroll deduction. • To find out more go to HFHSVB.com or call 313-879-0755.
Integrative medicine program In 2017, Integrative medicine was launched as a pilot program. It will continue to be offered in 2018. Research shows that integrative medicine can help cancer patients with potential treatment side-effects. It also can reduce fatigue and stress, while improving physical function and sleep. With these quality of life outcomes in mind, massage therapy, acupuncture and yoga will be covered benefits for employees and their family with a cancer diagnosis within the past three years. Eligibility for the program is limited and requires employees and their family be enrolled in the CDHP Comprehensive HFHS Preferred or the new HFHS Advantage Tiered Access options (Tier 1 only). Services can be received at the following locations: • Center for Athletic Medicine – Detroit • Henry Ford Medical Center – Cottage • Henry Ford Medical Center – Novi • Henry Ford West Bloomfield – Vita • Henry Ford Macomb – Wellspring • Quick Care Clinic – Detroit
A $20 co-pay per visit will be applied to massage therapy and acupuncture benefits. There is no co-pay for yoga. For more information about the pilot program, HAP. Employees and their family who do not meet the requirements to participate in the program can still receive 20% off at the Henry Ford Center for Integrative Medicine in Novi, Grosse Pointe, the QuickCare Clinic in Detroit and Vita in West Bloomfield. Wellspring in Macomb provides discounts for certain services as well. To make an appointment, call the Center for Integrative Medicine at 248-3806201 or Vita at 248-325-3870.
Health Care Coverage __________________________________________________________________________ For most of us, health care coverage is the first thing that comes to mind when we hear the word “benefits.” Satisfying our family’s health care needs is a significant concern for many of us. HFHS understands this and continues to offer medical/vision and dental options to meet these needs. You can enhance your health care coverage by carefully reviewing every option and considering how each will work with the other plans in the My Choice Rewards program or other coverage you may have. For example, if you choose a medical/vision plan option with co-pays, you may want to put pretax dollars in a Health Care FSA to cover the total co-pays you expect to incur during the year.
Consumer Driven Health Plans (CDHP) HFHS offers three CDHP Plans.
CDHP Basic Full HAP – This plan provides catastrophic care only. This plan protects you from worst-case scenarios like serious accidents or illnesses. While the employee contribution is low, the deductible is $4,500 for an individual and $9,000 for family (two or more individuals). Employees must pay the full cost of their medical services, including prescription drugs, until the deductible has been reached. Preventive care is covered at 100% and the deductible does not apply. This option allows to choose from a broader network of HAP d providers.

CDHP Comprehensive HFHS Preferred Network – Employees choosing this option are required to use CDHP HFHS Preferred Network providers. Employees must pay the full cost of their medical services, including prescription drugs, until the deductible has been reached. The deductible is $1,350 for an individual and $2,700 for family (two or more individuals). Preventive care is covered at 100% and the deductible does not apply. By selecting the CDHP Comprehensive HFHS Preferred HMO, employees and their dependents will receive services from providers and facilities comprised of HFPN, Jackson Health Network and Genesys PHO. Enrollees must select a JHN, HFPN or Genesys PHO primary care physician and can see any specialist within the preferred network. Enrollees will have access to all of the pediatric (dependents 18 & under) and OB/GYN providers who are in a HAP d network.

HSAs offer flexibility when it comes to planning for medical costs now and in the future. • For employees who enroll in any of the CDHP options, Henry Ford will contribute $500 (single), $750 (two people) or $1,000 (family) to the HSA by Jan. 3, 2018, which can be used toward the deductible. • Employees also may contribute to their HSA using pretax dollars. The annual limit combining the Henry Ford and employee contributions is $3,450 for an individual or $6,900 for a family (two or more individuals). Employees over age 55 may contribute an additional $1,000 over the maximum amounts listed above. • HSA funds roll over from year to year and the benefit is portable between employers and even into retirement. This makes it a good way to save for future medical 9 2018 MY CHOICE REWARDS

CDHP Comprehensive Full HAP – Employees who choose this option will pay more than the CDHP Basic Full HAP option depending on their level of coverage (single, two-person or family.) Employees choosing this option may choose any provider within the broader HAP network. Employees must pay the full cost of their medical services, including prescription drugs, until the deductible has been reached. The deductible is $1,350 for an individual and $2,700 for family (two or more individuals). Preventive care is covered at 100% and the deductible does not apply.
HEALTH SAVINGS
If you plan to contribute to an HSA in 2018 and you currently are enrolled in the health care FSA for 2017, be sure that the balance of your health care FSA is $0.00 on Dec. 15, 2017 in order for you to contribute and receive the employer funding to your HSA on Jan. 3, 2018. If your health care FSA balance is $0.00 on Dec. 31, you can expect to receive your contributions and the employer funding on Jan. 12. If your health care FSA balance is not $0.00 on Dec. 31, your contributions and the employer funded portion will be deposited on payday Friday, April 6, 2018. Claims must be paid and reimbursed by Dec. 31 not incurred or in a review status.
costs in retirement. In addition to saving for retirement, there are opportunities to invest your HSA contributions. • If you participate in one of the CDHPs with an HSA you cannot enroll in the health care flexible spending (FSA). You are still eligible for the dependent care FSA. • There are eligibility requirements to participate in the HSA. For example, if you have Medicare or are eligible for Canadian Health Care, you are not eligible. For these and other HSA details, visit http://healthequity.com. • HealthEquity is the vendor used for the HSA and FSA programs. • New hires, benefit status changes and mid-year events after Jan. 1 will have the employer contribution prorated.
Additional Medical Options
In addition to the CDHP options, My Choice Rewards is offering the HFHS Advantage Tiered Access plan (see page 17) and continues to offer Community Blue PPO and Manulife. Community Blue PPO allows employees to choose from the broadest network of providers at the highest employee contribution level. For a Community Blue PPO directory go to bcbsm.com.

Reward Your Health is the new wellness program for HFHS employees and their spouses enrolled in a HAP plan.
For 2018, all employees enrolled in a HAP plan will receive the reduced employee contribution and/or funding to their HSA. To keep receiving this reward in 2019, you and your covered spouse must meet the Reward Your Health wellness program requirements between Jan. 1 and July 31, 2018. Rewards are adjusted annually and communicated during open enrollment. Who’s eligible? • All employees enrolled in a HAP health plan. If you have a covered spouse, both you and your spouse must complete all requirements. • All new hires and employees new to a HAP health plan from Jan. 1 to March 31, 2018. When do I participate? • Jan. 1 through July 31, 2018. • All requirements must be completed and submitted by July 31, 2018. You’re encouraged to start early so you can meet the requirements by July 31.
1. Know your numbers (BMI, blood pressure, cholesterol, fasting blood glucose) 2. Take your online health assessment 3. Be tobacco free 4. Complete a wellness activity 5. Commit to complete all recommended preventive screenings. Health Fairs will be conducted in the first quarter of 2018. For additional details about Reward Your Health, click here. NG YOUR BEN IZI
You and your dependents can change your P and remain part of the CDHP HFHS Preferred Network option, as long as the new P is part of the CDHP HFHS Preferred Network. Changing your P will not affect your contribution for medical coverage. Changing your network assignment will affect your medical contribution. If you need to change from the CDHP Henry Ford Preferred Network option to the CDHP Basic or Full HAP option, you will continue to have a pre-tax deduction up to the cost of the CDHP Henry Ford Preferred Medical option. The added contribution will be an after-tax deduction. ITS EF
Annual deductibles and co-pays will no longer be affected. Instead, employees and covered spouses who meet the requirements, will pay a lower employee contribution to their medical coverage each pay and/or receive funding to a health savings for those employees enrolled in one of the three CDHP options.
What are the requirements? Reward Your Health has five requirements that must be completed by the employee and their covered spouse by July 31, 2018.
OPT IM
Manulife is offered to Canadian residents only. The plan is designed to subsidize Canada’s OHIP insurance and is not intended to provide a full range of services. For more information click here.
For example, if you have single coverage under the CDHP Henry Ford Preferred option at $33.89 per pay pre-tax, and you change your network selection to the CDHP Full HAP Network option, which is $77.47 per pay pre-tax, your pre-tax contribution will be $33.89 and your aftertax contribution will be $43.58 per pay for the remainder of the year.
What do I earn? A reduction in the contribution you pay for medical coverage for plan year 2019 based on your benefit plan and/or a health savings contribution. 2018 MY CHOICE REWARDS

Choose Wisely Don’t base your medical plan decision solely on the per pay contribution. Selecting the least costly plan could actually cost you more. For example, the Consumer Driven Basic Full HAP option per pay contribution is $25.90 for employee only coverage. However, you are required to pay $4,500 out of pocket for all your medical care including prescription drugs. Only preventive care is covered at 100% without having to meet the deductible.

However, the most any one person in the family will pay toward the deductible is $6,550 (the individual OOP limit). Once a family member meets this amount, HAP pays the entire amount of his/her covered services for the rest of the benefit period. Once the family collectively meets the $9,000 deductible, all family are considered to have met the deductible. CDHP Comprehensive $1,350 / $2,700 $6,550 / $13,100 HFHS Preferred
For family coverage, all family work together to meet the family deductible amount. When one person in the family or all of the family collectively meet the $2,700 deductible, all family are considered to have met the deductible.

Employees who elect to cover a spouse on an HFHS medical plan who is eligible for health insurance with their own non-HFHS employer will be assessed a surcharge of $46.15 pretax per pay. This surcharge is in addition to the employee’s per pay contribution for medical coverage and is designed to shift the responsibility of coverage to a broader spectrum of employers. Employees who cover their spouses also are required to complete an online verification form stating the spouse does not have the opportunity to be covered by their non-HFHS employer. If your spouse is covered on your medical plan and you do not complete the online verification form, you will be defaulted to receive coverage for your spouse and the surcharge will apply. If you are defaulted for failure to complete the verfication form, you can Employee Services to complete this form, but no refunds of the prior spouse surcharge deduction will occur. Random audits will be conducted and ineligible spouses will be removed. Falsification may result in disciplinary action, which could include termination.
HIGHLY COMPENSATED EMPLOYEES
Highly compensated employees continue to pay more for their medical coverage. A “highly compensated” employee earns a base annual salary of $270,000 or more. The salary is based on the 2017 Annual Compensation Limit as defined by the Internal Revenue Service and is adjusted annually. A highly compensated employee’s contribution is 60 percent higher than the contribution of other employees.

DELTA DENTAL PPO DENTIST You will receive the highest level of coverage if you go to a Delta Dental PPO (PPO) dentist. Delta Dental will pay PPO dentists directly based on their submitted fee or the amount in their local Delta Dental’s PPO dentist schedule, whichever is less. If the PPO dentist schedule amount for a covered service is lower than the dentist’s submitted fee, the dentist cannot charge you the difference. For example: If a PPO dentist charges $100 for a service covered at 100 percent, and if the PPO dentist schedule amount for that service is $80, we will pay the dentist $80 and you will owe nothing. The dentist cannot charge you the $20 difference between his or her submitted fee and the PPO dentist schedule amount.

We pay Premier dentists directly based on their submitted fee or their local Delta Dental’s maximum approved fee, whichever is less. If the maximum approved fee for a covered service is lower than the dentist’s submitted fee, the dentist cannot charge you the difference. For example: If a non-PPO dentist who participates in Delta Dental Premier charges $100 for a service that is covered at 80 percent, and if the maximum approved fee for that service is $95, we will pay the dentist $76 (80 percent of $95). You will owe the dentist the remaining $19. The dentist cannot charge you the $5 difference between his or her submitted fee and the maximum approved fee.

NON-PARTICIPATING DENTIST If you go to a non-participating dentist (a dentist who does not participate in Delta Dental PPO or Delta Dental Premier), you will probably have to pay more. Our payment for covered services will be based on the dentist’s submitted fee or the local Delta Dental’s nonparticipating dentist fee, whichever is less. Delta Dental will usually send payment directly to you, and you will be responsible for paying the dentist whatever he or she charges. In addition, you might have to pay the dentist at the time of your appointment. For example: If a non-participating dentist charges $100 for a service that is covered at 80 percent, and if the non-participating dentist fee for that service is $82, we will pay you $65.60 (80 percent of $82). You will owe the dentist the remaining $34.40. You will be responsible for paying him or her the full $100.

Flexible Spending s ____________________________________ Flexible spending s (FSAs) allow you to pay for out-of-pocket health care and dependent care expenses with pre-tax dollars. Your contributions are subtracted from your paycheck before federal, state and FICA taxes are calculated on your pay, so you save money on taxes. There are two types of FSAs. You may participate in either or both: • Health Care FSA – covers eligible health care expenses for you and your eligible dependents. • Dependent Care FSA – covers eligible dependent daycare or elder care expenses so you and your spouse can work or attend school full-time.
How the s Work • You decide how much you want to deposit during the calendar year. The maximum you can contribute to a health care FSA is $2,650. The maximum for a dependent care FSA is $5,000. • HealthEquity is the third party for the FSA program. • The annual limit you elect is calculated over 26 pay periods (or for a new hire, over the remaining pay periods in the year) to determine the per pay deduction. • When you have an eligible health care FSA expense, such as a prescription drug co-pay, save the itemized receipt. You can pay the expense with your HealthEquity health care FSA card at the point of purchase. HealthEquity may request a copy of your itemized receipts. For a list of eligible expenses click here. • For more information on the health care FSA click here. • You should retain receipts for your health care and dependent care expenses. To reduce the amount of substantiation that may be required, both HAP and Delta Dental provide medical and dental claims data to HealthEquity. HealthEquity is more rigorous in reviewing and processing claims. This is good for Henry Ford Health System and you from an IRS compliance perspective and any audits that could occur.
• For dependent care claims, save the itemized receipts from your day care provider and submit a claim form with your receipt to HealthEquity. For more information on eligible expenses click here. • Eligible expenses for a dependent care include but are not limited to, care for dependents age 12 or younger, or dependents regardless of age who are physically or mentally incapable of caring for themselves and whom you claim as a dependent on your federal income tax return. You (and your spouse if you are married) must maintain a home that you live in for more than half of the year with your qualifying child or dependent. • If you are married, your spouse must also be at work, school (as a full-time student), searching for a job, or mentally or physically disabled and unable to provide care for a dependent. • For more information on dependent care s click here.
Things to consider when enrolling in an FSA There are some IRS rules you need to know before you decide to participate in a health care and/or dependent care FSA. You must enroll each year if you want to participate. FSAs do not carry over from year to year. Health Care FSA • The annual amount you elect for a health care FSA is available as of Jan. 1, 2018, or the date you become benefit eligible and enroll in the plan. • Your 2018 contributions for a health care FSA must be used for eligible expenses you incur between Jan. 1, 2018 and March 15, 2019. • You incur an expense on the date the service is provided – not when you are billed or when you pay it. • You cannot submit a claim for services incurred prior to becoming eligible for the FSA. • By law, any money remaining in your health care FSA after April 30, 2019 is forfeited and will not be returned to you. This is known as the “use it or lose it” rule. • If you terminate employment or have a status change mid-year and you are no longer eligible to participate in a health care FSA, you have 90 days from the date of your event to submit eligible expenses incurred on or before your mid-year event.

By law, any money remaining in your dependent care FSA after Dec. 31, 2018 is forfeited and will not be returned to you. This is known as the “use it or lose it” rule. If you terminate employment or have a status change mid-year and you are no longer eligible to participate in a dependent care FSA, you have 30 days from the date of your event in which to submit eligible expenses incurred on or before your mid-year event. The health care and dependent care FSAs must maintain separate s. Money cannot be transferred between the s. Health care services cannot be reimbursed from a dependent care or vice versa.

LONG-TERM DISABILITY (LTD)
Long-term disability Insurance or LTD provides a source of income for you if you are unable to work due to a serious illness or injury. If you have previously waived LTD and would now like to elect coverage, or you are increasing more than one level of coverage, you will have to furnish evidence of insurability (EOI). If you are initially enrolling in or increasing your LTD coverage during open enrollment, you will not be eligible for the higher coverage amount for any disability resulting from a pre-existing condition that begins three months before the coverage effective date and in the first 12 months after the effective date of coverage. Since your LTD benefit is paid for on a pretax basis or by the company, any long term disability benefit you receive will be subject to income taxes. Your LTD options are as follows: 50% of base annual salary: maximum monthly benefit of $10,700* 60% of base annual salary: maximum monthly benefit of $12,850 70% of base annual salary: maximum monthly benefit of $15,000 *Option available to part time employees.

Additional Information ____________________________________ COVERAGE FOR HFHS COUPLES
If both a husband and wife are HFHS employees, they cannot be “double covered” under My Choice Rewards. A person covered as an employee cannot be an eligible dependent. However, one spouse could opt out of health care coverage and be covered as a dependent by the other spouse under two-person or family coverage. Eligible dependents of a couple employed by HFHS can be double covered under My Choice Rewards. Keep in mind that coordination of benefits rules apply for health care coverage, so that not more than 100 percent of eligible expenses can be paid. Similarly, an employee cannot be covered as a dependent on a spouse’s life insurance contract. However, an eligible dependent may be covered under both spouse’s dependent life insurance contracts. If that dependent dies, both spouses could collect on the dependent life coverage in which they were enrolled. An eligible expense may only be reimbursed once, even if both spouses participate in flexible spending s.

LEAVE OF ABSENCE
If you are on a leave of absence during open enrollment, changes made to your medical/vision or dental plans will be effective Jan. 1. All other benefit changes made during open enrollment will not be in effect until you have returned to work in the new plan year.
TERMINATION OF BENEFITS
Benefit coverage for you and your family will terminate on the last day of the month in which you terminate your employment or are in an ineligible benefit status. Long-term disability coverage ends on the date of termination. If you become ineligible for coverage, you and your eligible dependents may have continuation rights for medical/vision, dental and health care flexible spending benefits under the federal law known as COBRA. If you terminate your employment or are in an ineligible benefit status, you will be notified about your continuation rights.
HAP Personal Alliance Coverage for Gaps _____________________________________ Employees who are leaving the System or are no longer eligible for coverage because of a life event will experience a discontinuation of coverage. For these gaps in coverage, HAP offers health plans for individuals and families that may be a lower-cost alternative to COBRA. If your loss of coverage is due to a qualifying life event, you can sign up during a special enrollment period (SEP). The loss of previous coverage is considered a qualifying event. Call HAP Personal Alliance at (855) WITH-HAP, or visit hap.org for information about special enrollment period qualifying events.
Health Plans for Those Turning 26 _____________________________________ HAP provides coverage for individuals turning 26 and aging off their parents’ health plan. This is a life event that qualifies the individual to sign up by the end of the month the individual turns 26. During the SEP, you or your dependent can obtain coverage under a separate contract/policy. Visit hap.org for more information about the policies designed for young adults.

Important Federal Notices _____________________________________ Women’s Health & Cancer Rights Act
The Women’s Health & Cancer Rights Act requires group health plans that provide coverage for mastectomy to provide coverage for certain reconstructive services. This law also requires that written notice of the availability of the coverage be delivered to all plan participants upon enrollment and annually thereafter. This language serves to fulfill that requirement for 2018. These services include: • Reconstruction of the breast upon which the mastectomy has been performed, • Surgery/reconstruction of the other breast to produce a symmetrical appearance, • Prostheses, and • Treatment for physical complications during all stages of mastectomy, including lymphedema. In addition, the plan may not: • Interfere with a woman’s rights under the plan to avoid these requirements, or • Offer inducements to the health provider, or assess penalties against the health provider, in an attempt to interfere with the requirements of the law. However, the plan may apply deductibles and co-pays consistent with other coverage provided by the plan.
HIPAA Rights
HFHS sponsors a group health plan. As such, the System has access to the individually identifiable health information of plan participants (1) on behalf of the plan itself; or (2) on behalf of the System, for istrative functions of the plan. The Health Insurance Portability and ability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) and its regulations restrict the System’s ability to use and disclose protected health information (PHI). Protected health information means any information relating to the past, present or future physical or mental condition of an individual (or payment thereof) that identifies the individual or can be used to identify the individual. It is Henry Ford Health System’s policy to comply fully with HIPAA requirements. Consequently, if you become a covered participant under the group health plan, you have a right under HIPAA to receive a Notice of Privacy Practices for Protected Health Information. To request a copy, call 855-874-7100 or email
[email protected].
Newborns’ Mothers’ Health Protection Act
Group health plans and health plan issuers generally may not, under federal law, restrict benefits for any hospital length of stay in connection with childbirth for the mother or newborn child to less than 48 hours following a vaginal delivery, or less than 96 hours following a Cesarean section. However, federal law generally does not prohibit the mother’s or newborn’s attending provider, after consulting with the mother, from discharging the mother or her newborn earlier than 48 hours (or 96 hours as applicable). In any case, plans and issuers may not, under law, require that a provider obtain authorization from the plan or the issuer for prescribing a length of stay not in excess of 48 hours (or 96 hours).
Summary of Benefits and Coverage (SBC) and Uniform Glossary
In addition to the detailed Medical Plan Comparison Chart on pages 13-20, a document called a Summary of Benefits and Coverage (SBC) is also here. An SBC is a federally mandated document intended to help individuals across the nation compare health plans. Each health plan is required to issue an SBC for every group health plan it offers. An SBC details deductibles, co-insurance and out-of-pocket limits for various services in a prescribed format. A Uniform Glossary of Health Coverage and Medical to accompany the SBC is also available. To view a health plan SBC and/or the Uniform Glossary, log on to HR Connect/Benefits.
Special Enrollment Rights
Under the federal Health Insurance Portability and ability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), a special enrollment period for health plan coverage may be available if you lose health care coverage under certain conditions, or when you acquire new dependents by marriage, birth, or adoption. If during open enrollment you decline enrollment for yourself or your dependents (including your spouse) because you have other health care coverage and later you involuntarily lose that coverage, you may be able to enroll yourself or your dependents in health care coverage outside the annual open enrollment period, provided you previously declined enrollment due to coverage elsewhere and you request enrollment within 30 days after your other coverage ends. If you have a new dependent as a result of marriage, birth, adoption or placement for adoption, you may be

able to enroll yourself and your dependents for health coverage outside the annual Open Enrollment period, provided you previously declined enrollment due to coverage elsewhere and you request enrollment within 30 days after the marriage, birth, adoption or placement for adoption.
Special Rules for Gain or Loss of Eligibility for Medicaid/CHIPRA
When you experience a change that results in a gain or loss of eligibility for Medicaid/CHIP*, you may be able to make certain adjustments to your benefits correlating to your status change within 60 days. Effective April 1, 2009, the Children’s Health Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2009 (“CHIPRA”) adds two new special enrollment events. You or your dependent(s) will be permitted to enroll or cancel your medical coverage in either of the following circumstances: 1. You or your dependent’s Medicaid or state Children’s Health Insurance Program (“CHIP”) coverage is canceled due to a loss of eligibility. You must go online to Employee Self Service within sixty (60) days from the date you or your dependent loses coverage and make this change. 2. You or your dependent(s) enrolls in Medicaid or the state CHIP. You may cancel your HFHS provided medical coverage within 60 days of your or your dependent’s coverage effective date by going online to Employee Self Service to make this change. For further details on Medicaid or Michigan’s CHIP program, call the Michigan Department of Community Health at 888-988-6300 toll-free. *The state Children’s Health Insurance Program in Michigan is called MIChild.
Medicaid and the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP)
If you are eligible for health coverage from your employer, but are unable to afford the s, some states have assistance programs that can help pay for coverage. (For a list of participating states, visit dol.gov/ebsa/chipmodelnotice.doc) If you or your dependents are not currently enrolled in Medicaid or CHIP, and you think you or any of your dependents might be eligible for either of these programs, you can your state Medicaid or CHIP office, or you may 1-877-KIDS NOW or visit insurekidsnow.gov to find out

how to apply. If you qualify, you can ask the state if it has a program that might help you pay the s for an employer-sponsored plan. Once it is determined that you or your dependents are eligible for assistance under Medicaid or CHIP, your employer’s health plan is required to permit you and your dependents to enroll in the plan — as long as you and your dependents are eligible, but not already enrolled. As of the date of this publication the State of Michigan does not participate in this program.
