How to Make the Most of Your Benefits Stay in-network to lower your out-of-pocket costs The PPO plan includes a deductible for in-network services. A deductible is the amount you pay for covered health care services before your coverage begins to pay for covered health care services. For 2015, the annual in-network deductible is $400 for individual coverage and $950 for family coverage. The deductible does not apply to all services, such as doctor s office visits and most wellness benefits. Here is how costs under the PPO plan, one subject to deductible and one not, might compare: Service Provider charge Horizon BCBSNJ allowance Deductible amount Remaining balance Horizon BCBSNJ s payment Member s total out-of-pocket cost Outpatient surgery $2,000 $1,600 $400 $1,200 $1,020 $580 Subject to a deductible Contracted rate Horizon BCBSNJ pays for 85% of the balance up to the allowance. The member pays up to the deductible amount, plus 15% of the remaining allowance. Annual exam $250 $150 $0 $0 $150 $0 Not subject to a deductible Contracted rate Horizon BCBSNJ pays the balance up to the allowance. The member does not pay for eligible preventive services. The EPO plan does not have a deductible, but some services require a copayment. However, the copayment does not apply to all services, such as most wellness benefits. Here is how costs under the EPO plan, one subject to copayment and one not, might compare: Service Provider charge Horizon BCBSNJ allowance Copay amount Remaining balance Horizon BCBSNJ s payment Member s total out-of-pocket cost Outpatient surgery $2,000 $1,600 $250 $1,600 $1,350 $250 Subject to copayment Contracted rate Horizon BCBSNJ pays 100% of the balance up to the allowance after the copayment.

Need Help in a Hurry? Know your best options for care When you and/or a family member need urgent care for a non-life-threatening condition, visiting a participating Urgent Care Center (UCC) or Retail Health Clinic in select chain pharmacies can be a valuable alternative to visiting the Emergency Room (ER). You can receive care faster and will likely pay less for your care. The PPO plan includes a $350 penalty for non-emergent use of the ER. * This example includes the PPO plan s $350 penalty for non-emergent use of the ER. This penalty does not apply to the EPO plan. Type of Situation Emergency A medical condition that is so severe, it poses a risk to a person s life or long-term health. Urgent An unexpected medical condition that is not life-threatening but requires medical attention within 24 hours. Nonemergent A medical condition that is not life-threatening, may not need immediate medical attention and/or may be treated with self-care. When ER services are used for non-emergencies, we all pay the price.
