Elections you make during open enrollment will become effective January 1, 2016. 2016 New Hire Enrollment Information Because all benefit options are voluntary, newly hired employees are required to enroll or waive enrollment in the Archdiocese benefits. You must complete an enrollment or waiver form within 31 days of your date of hire. Coverage in all benefits will begin first of the month following your date of hire. The Archdiocese offers you and your eligible family members a comprehensive and valuable benefits program. We encourage you to take the time to educate yourself about your options and choose the best coverage for you and your family. This guide describes your benefit options for 2016. Please read it carefully for important information you will need in order to make decisions about your benefit elections. 2 Who is Eligible? An employee who works at least an average of 30 hours per week for the school or calendar year is eligible to participate in all of the Archdiocese Benefit Plans. You may elect coverage for your eligible dependents which include your legal spouse or dependent child(ren) (until the end of the calendar year in which they turn 26). If you work less than 30 hours a week, you may be eligible to participate in the Flexible Spending Accounts. Please see your local benefits administrator if you have questions. How to Enroll Open enrollment will be completed via our online self-service portal again this year. Instructions can be found on page 6. New hires are asked to continue to use the paper enrollment form located in the back of this booklet. For both open enrollment and new hire enrollment, please remember, once you have made your elections, you will not be able to change them until the next open enrollment period unless you have a qualified change in status. When to Enroll This year Open Enrollment begins October 19th and ends October 31st, 2015. During this period you may elect, change or waive coverage in the health, dental or vision plans. Open Enrollment is the only opportunity you have to enroll in the Humana voluntary worksite plans. All employees are encouraged to go online, review their benefits to ensure you are enrolled in the desired plans, and if you have any questions, contact your local Benefits Administrator. Your next opportunity to enroll or make changes in benefits will be the next Open Enrollment period, unless you have a qualifying status change. All part-time employees working 20 or more hours per week must also enroll online, verify your information and enroll/waive the flexible spending benefit. How to Make Changes After your initial enrollment, you cannot make changes to the benefits you elect until the next open enrollment period unless you have a qualified change in status. Qualified changes in status include: birth, death, marriage, divorce, adoption of a child, change in child’s dependent status, or a significant change in benefits coverage for you or your spouse because of your spouse’s employment. A request for change in status must be received within 31 days of the event. If you wish to enroll or make changes to your Life and Disability benefits, you will be required to provide proof of insurability before the enrollment or change is approved. Please choose your benefits carefully. Employees who elect to pay for their benefits on a post-tax basis, may discontinue their elections at anytime. Should you choose to re-enroll, you may be subject to HIPAA Special Enrollment guidelines or furnish Evidence of Insurability. 3 Effects of Health Care Reform Summary of Benefits and Coverage Under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), insurance companies and group health plans will provide consumers with a concise document detailing, in plain language, simple and consistent information about health plan benefits and coverage. This Summary of Benefits and Coverage (SBC) document will help consumers better understand the coverage they have and, for the first time, allow them to easily compare different coverage options. It will summarize the key features of the plan or coverage, such as the covered benefits, cost-sharing provisions, and coverage limitations and exceptions. A copy of the SBC can be found on page 36 of this booklet. Grandfathered Status The Archdiocese Health Plan is a “grandfathered health plan” under the PPACA. As permitted by PPACA, a grandfathered health plan can preserve certain basic health coverage that was already in effect when that law was enacted. Being a grandfathered health plan means that your plan may not include certain consumer protections of the PPACA that apply to other plans, for example, the requirement for the provision of preventive health services without any cost sharing. However, grandfathered health plans must comply with certain other consumer protections in the PPACA, for example, the elimination of lifetime limits on benefits. Questions regarding which protections apply and which protections do not apply to a grandfathered health plan and what might cause a plan to change from grandfathered health plan status can be directed to the Human Resources office of the Archdiocese. Women’s Preventive Care Guidelines In August, 2011, the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) announced additional preventive care services, developed by the independent Institute of Medicine, to cover women’s preventive services without charging a copayment, coinsurance or a deductible. In addition to requiring 100% coverage for well-women visits and various types of screenings, the HHS has included coverage for FDA-approved contraception methods. The Archdiocese Health Plan is a “grandfathered health plan”, these guidelines will not apply as long as we maintain “grandfathered” status. Even though the health plan is not required to comply with these guidelines, our health plan covers routine preventive services at 100% up to a $500 benefit maximum per calendar year for all members. Once the $500 maximum is met, all services are subject to applicable coinsurance and deductible. In addition, the health plan also covers one mammogram and one colonoscopy per calendar year at 100%, regardless if it is a routine or diagnostic service. Coverage for contraception is not included in our health plan. 4 What’s Changing for 2016? The value of our work at the Archdiocese of Kansas City in Kansas makes an impact within our community and we are committed to positively impact the lives of our employees and their families. With that in mind, the Archdiocese Benefit Plan is designed to recognize the diverse needs of our workforce. Because the Archdiocese self-insures the health and dental plans, our health care costs are driven by our own claims experience and utilization of services. Having self-insured benefit plans affords us greater control over our health and dental plan designs and also helps us eliminate large administrative costs and enhance our claims processing. Please take the time to become familiar with the changes for our upcoming plan year so that you can make informed decisions about your benefit elections. And we hope you are pleased with the generous benefits package the Archdiocese continues to provide to your total compensation. Below is a brief description of the changes taking place: Employee Premiums – No changes to employee contributions for 2016 on the Medical, Dental or Vision plans. Medical and Prescription Drug Plan – The plan will renew with BlueKC with no benefit plan changes for 2016. We are pleased to announce the addition of a number of benefits available to those employees enrolled in the medical plan. Naturally Slim, Alere Oncology Case Management and Teledoc. These are available at no additional cost. More details can be found on pages 15-17 of this benefit guide. Dental Plan – The plan will renew with Delta Dental with no benefit plan changes for 2016. Vision Plan – The plan will renew with VSP with no benefit plan changes for 2016. Life and Disability – The Basic Life and Long Term Disability insurance will continue as a shared voluntary plan paid 50% by the employee and 50% by the employer, but the plan will have a slight reduction in premium and it will be for Basic Life/AD&D, Basic Dependent Life and Long Term Disability insurance only. Short Term Disability – Short term disability insurance will be provided to all Archdiocesan employees who are eligible for benefits at NO COST to the employee. The cost of this insurance will be shared by the employer and the Archdiocese 5 Open Enrollment Instructions You will be passively enrolled for 2016 in your current benefits with the exception of the Flexible Spending Accounts.

Your employer will pay 60% of your cost to participate in the Health and Dental plans. The chart below shows your share of the 2016 monthly cost compared to the total cost.

Monthly Rates Health Plan (Includes RX) Single Family Dental Plan Single Family Voluntary Vision Plan Single Family 2016 Employee Contribution 2016 Employer Contribution Total Cost $263.68 $556.36 $395.53 $834.54 $659.21 $1,390.90 $16.98 $40.13 $25.47 $60.20 $42.45 $100.33 $9.26 $25.56 n.a. n.a. $9.26 $25.56 For Married Couples Both Working for Participating Agencies within the Archdiocese Married couples, of which both parties are employed by a participating agency of the Archdiocese Health and Dental Plan and are eligible for benefits, will have the premium costs paid in full by the participating agency(ies). If one employer employs both parties of the married couple, that agency will pay the entire premium. If two agencies are involved, the full premium should be divided evenly between the two employing agencies. This policy pertains to all participating agencies, except those who have been given a “special exception” to the employer/employee premium ratio. Those exempted agencies will not be required to pay full premiums if both spouses work for the exempted institution, but will be required to share equally in the cost of the premium when one party of the couple works for some non-exempted participating agency of the Plan. 10 Health Benefits You have the flexibility to seek care from an in-network or out-of-network provider.

There are many possible paths to weight loss, but they don’t all lead to a healthier life. There’s the crash diet before swimsuit season. There’s the starvation diet before your high school reunion. There are complicated regimens of weigh-ins and calorie-counting. Naturally Slim is a different kind of program. Naturally Slim Inc. is an independent company that provides a wellness program on behalf of your health plan. It involves mindful eating — which lets you enjoy foods, think about why you’re hungry, and focus more on how you eat than what you eat. Most importantly, it has helped many people reduce their risk for an increasingly common condition called metabolic syndrome. Do you already have metabolic syndrome? You might, if you have at least three of these risk factors: • High blood pressure • Low HDL (good cholesterol) • High triglycerides • High blood sugar • Large waist circumference With metabolic syndrome, you are: • • • 700 percent more likely to get diabetes 300 percent more likely to get heart disease 200 percent more likely to have a stroke With 10 hour-long, self-paced videos, Naturally Slim is an online program that helps people lose weight for the right reasons: to avoid the costs of these serious diseases and live healthier, happier lives. Some 87 percent of participants lose weight, with an average 10-week loss of 10.1 pounds. The program teaches mindful eating and behavior modification techniques that can reduce health risks, take pounds off and keep them off. Do you think you might qualify for the Naturally Slim program?

A Flexible Spending Account (FSA) is an account in which you set aside pre-tax dollars to pay for eligible health care or dependent care expenses not covered by insurance. The annual amount you elect to contribute to each account will be divided into equal amounts and deducted from your paycheck pre-tax. You are eligible to participate in both the Health Care Reimbursement account and the Dependent Care Reimbursement Account if you work a minimum of 20 hours per week. Health Care Accoun t: You may elect an amount up to $2,500 per plan year to be used for medical, prescription drug, dental and vision expenses for you and eligible dependents. Some eligible expenses include (but are not limited to) the following: • Medical or Dental Deductibles and Coinsurance • Office Visit and Prescription Drug Copays • Eyeglasses and Contact Lenses • Hearing Aides Dependent Care A ccount: You may elect an amount up to $5,000 per plan year ($2,500 maximum per year if married and filing a separate tax return) to be used for child day care or elder day care expenses for your eligible dependents. Some eligible expenses include (but are not limited to) the following: • Adult Day Care for Seniors • Child Daycare • Before and/or After School Care Why Should I Participate? By setting aside pre-tax dollars to pay for out-of-pocket expenses you would normally pay for using aftertax dollars, you are reducing your “taxable income” because it reduces the amount of federal, state and FICA taxes you pay. This means more take-home pay for you! How Does an FSA Work? Your contributions are taken pre-tax and divided equally among your pay periods. Funds can be used for expenses incurred from January 1st through March 15th of the following year (a total of 14.5 months). Federal tax laws require that your FSA operate on a “use it or lose it” basis meaning any unused funds in the account at the end of the calendar year will be forfeited. You have until March 31st following the close of the plan year to submit your claims and receipts for reimbursements from the prior plan year. Additionally, the IRS imposes some rules and restrictions on the way you can use FSAs. Unused funds left in the account(s) from the previous year that are not used to reimburse expenses incurred by the end of the plan year are subject to the use-it-or-lose-it rule and are forfeited. For additional rules and restrictions, please see Human Resources. 28 Health and Dependent Care Flexible HealthCare Care and Dependent Care Flexible Spending SpendingAccounts Accounts(cont’d) (cont’d) Can Orthodontia be reimbursed through your FSA? Orthodontia expenses can be reimbursed through your Flexible Spending Account (FSA), but the reimbursement process governed by the Internal Revenue Service can be challenging to understand. In short, your FSA reimbursement aligns with the payment/treatment schedule set up with your orthodontist/dentist. Reimbursement can span as much as two years if the treatment time is that long. Even if you pay for orthodontia in full prior to treatment, your reimbursement schedule will align with the treatment months. Additional detailed information can be found on the Archdiocese Benergy site or you may contact NueSynergy FSA Customer Service at (855) 890-7239 or email at customerservice@NueSynergy.com. REIMBURSEMENTS – 2 OPTIONS • • • File a claim – complete the Claim for Reimbursement form and submit it with itemized receipts to our FSA administrator, NueSynergy. Reimbursement for your expenses may be paid to you via check or direct deposit. Debit Card –Allows you to pay directly from your flexible spending account at the point of service, eliminating the hassles associated with having to “pay twice.” • By electing to use the debit card, you agree to save all invoices and receipts related to any expense paid with the debit card. Upon request you must submit these documents for review by NueSynergy. Failure to submit the requested documents will cause the expense to be treated as a non-qualified expense and you will be required to remit payment to your employer. • Note debit cards may no longer be used to purchase OTC medicines and drugs. You will need to use another form of payment and file a claim for reimbursement. A debit card fee of $12 per year will be deducted from your account at the beginning of the calendar year. Tips & Reminders Estimate your expenses and plan carefully so that you don’t leave a balance in your account at the end of the year because the user-it-or-lose-it rule does apply to both the Health Care and Dependent Care FSAs. Keep your receipts! Even if you use the debit card successfully, you may still be asked to submit a receipt in order to comply with IRS regulations. Most over-the-counter medications are not eligible expenses. You can find a full list of eligible expenses on NueSynergy website. Debit card will be mailed to your home in a plain white envelope labeled “Important Benefit Information”. You can’t use funds in your Health Care FSA to pay for Dependent Care expenses, and vice versa. You can use your Health Care FSA to purchase over-the-counter (OTC) medications as long as you have a prescription. Some OTC items do not require prescriptions like insulin, diabetic supplies, band aids, and contact lens solution. PRE-TAX PREMIUM DEDUCTIONS Premium deductions for the Archdiocese Health, Dental, Voluntary Vision and Voluntary Accident plans may be deducted from your paycheck on a pre-tax basis. By electing to participate in the Pre-Tax Premium plan you may take advantage of tax savings. Please note that your social security benefits may be affected due to the pre-tax reduction in your salary. Benefits elected to be paid with pre-tax premium may not be changed mid-year unless you experience a family status change. NueSynergy gives you access to your account status 24 hours a day, seven days a week, through an interactive voice response system.

This notice has information about your current prescription drug coverage with Archdiocese of Kansas City in Kansas and about your options under Medicare’s prescription drug coverage. This information can help you decide whether or not you want to join a Medicare drug plan. If you are considering joining, you should compare your current coverage, including which drugs are covered at what cost, with the coverage and costs of the plans offering Medicare prescription drug coverage in your area. Information about where you can get help to make decisions about your prescription drug coverage is at the end of this notice. There are two important things you need to know about your current coverage and Medicare’s prescription drug coverage: 1. Medicare prescription drug coverage became available in 2006 to everyone with Medicare. You can get this coverage if you join a Medicare Prescription Drug Plan or join a Medicare Advantage Plan (like an HMO or PPO) that offers prescription drug coverage. All Medicare drug plans provide at least a standard level of coverage set by Medicare. Some plans may also offer more coverage for a higher monthly premium. 2. Archdiocese of Kansas City in Kansas has determined that the prescription drug coverage offered by the Archdiocese of Kansas City in Kansas Employee Health Care Plan is, on average for all plan participants, expected to pay out as much as standard Medicare prescription drug coverage pays and is therefore considered Creditable Coverage. Because your existing coverage is Creditable Coverage, you can keep this coverage and not pay a higher premium (a penalty) if you later decide to join a Medicare drug plan. __________________________________________________________________________ When Can You Join A Medicare Drug Plan? th You can join a Medicare drug plan when you first become eligible for Medicare and each year from October 15 through th December 7 . However, if you lose your current creditable prescription drug coverage, through no fault of your own, you will also be eligible for a two (2) month Special Enrollment Period (SEP) to join a Medicare drug plan. What Happens To Your Current Coverage If You Decide to Join A Medicare Drug Plan? If you decide to join a Medicare drug plan, your current coverage with Archdiocese of Kansas City in Kansas will not be affected. Archdiocese of Kansas City in Kansas Employee Health Care Plan will coordinate benefits with Part D coverage. Please be advised that our group medical plan will be primary and the Medicare Part D plan will be secondary. If you do decide to join a Medicare drug plan and drop your current Archdiocese of Kansas City in Kansas coverage, be aware that you and your dependents may not be able to get this coverage back. When Will You Pay A Higher Premium (Penalty) To Join A Medicare Drug Plan? You should also know that if you drop or lose your current coverage with Archdiocese of Kansas City in Kansas and don’t join a Medicare drug plan within 63 continuous days after your current coverage ends, you may pay a higher premium (a penalty) to join a Medicare drug plan later. If you go 63 continuous days or longer without creditable prescription drug coverage, your monthly premium may go up by at least 1% of the Medicare base beneficiary premium per month for every month that you did not have that coverage. For example, if you go nineteen months without creditable coverage, your premium may consistently be at least 19% higher than the Medicare base beneficiary premium. You may have to pay this higher premium (a penalty) as long as you have Medicare prescription drug coverage. In addition, you may have to wait until the following November to join. 34 Legal Notices For More Information About This Notice Or Your Current Prescription Drug Coverage… Contact the person listed below for further information.

Tier 1 $475 person/$950 family. In-Network $475 person/$950 family. Out-of-Network $475 person/$950 family. Doesn't apply to preventive care. Are there other deductibles for specific services?

Out-of-Network $2,300 person/$4,100 family. Per Admission Copayment, Per Occurrence Copayment, Premiums, balance-billed charges and health care this plan doesn't cover. No. Why this Matters: You must pay all the costs up to the deductible amount before this plan begins to pay for covered services you use. Check your policy or plan document to see when the deductible starts over (usually, but not always, January 1st). See the chart starting on page 2 for how much you pay for covered services after you meet the deductible. You don't have to meet deductibles for specific services, but see the chart starting on page 2 for other costs for services this plan covers. The out-of-pocket limit is the most you could pay during a coverage period (usually one year) for your share of the cost of covered services. This limit helps you plan for health care expenses. Even though you pay these expenses, they don’t count toward the out-of-pocket limit. Is there an overall annual limit on what the plan pays? Does this plan use Yes. See www.MyHealthToolkitKC.com or call a network of providers? 1-800-810-BLUE (2583) for a list of participating medical providers.

The chart starting on page 2 describes any limits on what the plan will pay for specific covered services, such as office visits. Are there services this plan doesn’t cover? Some of the services this plan doesn’t cover are listed in the Excluded Services and Other Covered Services section. See your policy or plan document for additional information about excluded services. Yes. If you use an in-network doctor or other health care provider, this plan will pay some or all of the costs of covered services. Be aware, your in-network doctor or hospital may use an out-of-network provider for some services. Plans use the term in-network, preferred, or participating for providers in their network. See the chart starting on page 2 for how this plan pays different kinds of providers. You can see the specialist you choose without permission from this plan.

NA AR20141117103613682778 Page 1 of 9 • Copayments are fixed dollar amounts (for example, $15) you pay for covered health care, usually when you receive the service. • Coinsurance is your share of the costs of a covered service, calculated as a percent of the allowed amount for the service. For example, if the plan’s allowed amount for an overnight hospital stay is $1,000, your coinsurance payment of 20% would be $200. This may change if you haven’t met your deductible. • The amount the plan pays for covered services is based on the allowed amount. If an out-of-network provider charges more than the allowed amount, you may have to pay the difference. For example, if an out-of-network hospital charges $1,500 for an overnight stay and the allowed amount is $1,000, you may have to pay the $500 difference. (This is called balance billing.) • This plan may encourage you to use in-network providers by charging you lower deductibles, copayments and coinsurance amounts.

Use these examples to see, in general, how much financial protection a sample patient might get if they are covered under different plans. This is not a cost estimator. Don’t use these examples to estimate your actual costs under this plan. The actual care you receive will be different from these examples, and the cost of that care will also be different. See the next page for important information about these examples.

Sample care costs are based on national averages supplied by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, and aren’t specific to a particular geographic area or health plan. The patient’s condition was not an excluded or preexisting condition. All services and treatments started and ended in the same coverage period. There are no other medical expenses for any member covered under this plan. Out-of-pocket expenses are based only on treating the condition in the example. The patient received all care from in-network providers. If the patient had received care from out-of-network providers, costs would have been higher. What does a Coverage Example show? Can I use Coverage Examples to compare plans? For each treatment situation, the Coverage Example helps you see how deductibles, copayments, and coinsurance can add up. It also helps you see what expenses might be left up to you to pay because the service or treatment isn’t covered or payment is limited. P Yes. When you look at the Summary of Does the Coverage Example predict my own care needs? No. Treatments shown are just examples. OThe care you would receive for this condition could be different based on your doctor’s advice, your age, how serious your condition is, and many other factors. Does the Coverage Example predict my future expenses? O No. Coverage Examples are not cost estimators. You can’t use the examples to estimate costs for an actual condition. They are for comparative purposes only. Your own costs will be different depending on the care you receive, the prices your providers charge, and the reimbursement your health plan allows. Benefits and Coverage for other plans, you’ll find the same Coverage Examples. When you compare plans, check the “Patient Pays” box in each example. The smaller that number, the more coverage the plan provides. Are there other costs I should consider when comparing plans? P Yes. An important cost is the premium you pay. Generally, the lower your premium, the more you’ll pay in out-of-pocket costs, such as copayments, deductibles, and coinsurance. You should also consider contributions to accounts such as health savings accounts (HSAs), flexible spending arrangements (FSAs) or health reimbursement accounts (HRAs) that help you pay out-of-pocket expenses.

This exclusion applies to conditions for which medical advice, diagnosis, care or treatment was recommended or received within the six-month period prior to enrolling in the health plan and the exclusion may last up to 12 months. The exclusion does not apply to pregnancy nor to a child who is enrolled in the Plan within 30 days after birth, adoption or placement for adoption. Your Employer’s group contract will provide credit for preexisting conditions if you were previously covered under creditable coverage. The period of any preexisting condition exclusion that would otherwise apply to a person will be reduced by the number of days of creditable coverage the person has as of the enrollment date. In order to receive credit towards the preexisting condition exclusion period, you must provide copies of the Certificates of the Creditable Coverage or other acceptable proof of coverage from the prior plan(s) or the following information for the verification of prior creditable medical coverage you or any listed dependents currently have, or previously had, including continuation of coverage. Should you need additional information or assistance regarding any preexisting condition exclusion, contact the Blue Cross Blue Shield of Kansas City Customer Services Department at (888) 495-9340 (for the Kansas City area (913) 642-4276).
