8. Important Notes on Network Rules & No Surprises Act (NSA)
Emergency & Surprise Billing Protections:
Emergency services rendered by Out-of-Network Providers for "Emergency Care" as defined in the section titled "Definitions"; air ambulance services rendered by Out-of-Network Providers of air ambulance services; and non-emergency services rendered by Out-of-Network Providers on an inpatient or outpatient basis at an In-Network Hospital or facility for emergency medicine, anesthesia, pathology, radiology, laboratory, neonatology, assistant surgeon, hospitalist, or intensivist services, provided the Covered Person has not validly waived the applicability of the No Surprises Act of the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021 (NSA), will be paid at the In-Network Provider Deductible, Co-payment and Coinsurance levels, subject to the Qualifying Payment Amount.
When emergency services are rendered by an Out-of-Network Provider for Emergency Care, or air ambulance services are rendered by an Out-of-Network Provider of air ambulance services, the Out-of-Network Provider cannot balance bill the Covered Person. When non-emergency services are rendered by an Out-of-Network Provider on an inpatient or outpatient basis at an In-Network Hospital or facility for emergency medicine, anesthesia, pathology, radiology, laboratory, neonatology, assistant surgeon, hospitalist, or intensivist services, the Out-of-Network Provider cannot balance bill the Covered Person unless the Covered Person gives written consent and gives up their protections in accordance with the NSA. If a Covered Person waives their protections and agrees to balance billing per the NSA, Out-of-Network Providers will be paid according to the Plan's Out-of-Network level of benefits, subject to the Allowed Amount.
When services are rendered by an Out-of-Network Provider in any instance other than the reasons listed above, Covered Persons may be responsible for any amount above the Allowed Amount when services are rendered by an Out-of-Network Provider.
Deductible/OOPM Combination Rules:
- The In-Network Provider and Out-of-Network Provider Deductible and Out-of-Pocket Maximums are combined. Eligible expenses which track toward the In-Network Provider Deductible and Out-of-Pocket Maximums will not be credited toward the satisfaction of the Out-of-Network Deductible and Out-of-Pocket Maximums, and vice versa.
- In addition, Covered Services that contain dollar, frequency, or visit limits are combined In-Network and Out-of-Network maximums.
| Field | Status |
|---|---|
| In/Out-of-Network Deductibles | COMBINED |
| In/Out-of-Network Out-of-Pocket Maximums | COMBINED |
Expenses excluded from the Medical Out-of-Pocket Maximum:
- Precertification penalties
9. Preventive Care

Please see the Medical Benefits section for additional details about the preventive coverage provided, or a complete listing can be found via the referenced full listing.

The Summary of Benefits and Coverage (SBC) document will help you choose a health plan. The SBC shows you how you and the plan would share the cost for covered health care services. NOTE: Information about the cost of this plan (called the premium) will be provided separately. This is only a summary. For more information about your coverage, or to get a copy of the complete terms of coverage, call 1-888-832-0354. For general definitions of common terms, such as allowed amount, balance billing, coinsurance, copayment, deductible, provider or other underlined terms see the Glossary. You may view the Glossary at healthcare.gov/sbc-glossary or call 1-888-832-0354 to request a copy.
| Important Question | Answer | Why This Matters |
|---|---|---|
| What is the overall deductible? | In-network — Single Plan: $1,700 employee; Family Plan: $3,400 family. Out-of-network — Single Plan: $10,000 employee; Family Plan: $20,000 family | Generally, you must pay all of the costs from providers up to the deductible amount before this plan begins to pay. If you have other family members on the policy, the overall family deductible must be met before the plan begins to pay. |
| Are there services covered before you meet your deductible? | Yes. In-network preventive services and routine vision exams are some of the services covered before you meet your deductible. | This plan covers some items and services even if you haven't yet met the deductible amount. But a copayment or coinsurance may apply. For example, this plan covers certain preventive services without cost-sharing and before you meet your deductible. See list of covered preventive services at healthcare.gov/coverage/preventive-care-benefits/. |
| Are there other deductibles for specific services? | No. | You don't have to meet deductibles for specific services. |
| What is the out-of-pocket limit for this plan? | In-network — Single Plan: $7,500 employee; Family Plan: $10,600 person/$15,000 family. Out-of-network — Single Plan: $18,000 employee; Family Plan: $18,000 person/$36,000 family | The out-of-pocket limit is the most you could pay in a year for covered services. If you have other family members in this plan, they have to meet their own out-of-pocket limits until the overall family out-of-pocket limit is met. |
| What is not included in the out-of-pocket limit? | Premiums, balance-billing charges and health care this plan doesn't cover. | Even though you pay these expenses, they don't count toward the out-of-pocket limit. |
| Will you pay less if you use a network provider? | Yes. See hpiTPA.com or call 1-888-832-0354 for a list of network providers. | This plan uses a provider network. You pay less if you use a provider in the plan's network. You pay the most if you use an out-of-network provider and you might receive a bill from a provider for the difference between the provider's charge and what your plan pays (balance billing). Be aware your network provider might use an out-of-network provider for some services (such as lab work). Check with your provider before you get services. |
| Do you need a referral to see a specialist? | No. | You may see a specialist you choose without a referral. |
