Coverage for substance abuse is included in the contract. You may choose to exclude substance abuse coverage, in which case your premium will be slightly reduced.
Dependents may not be added to this plan, but they can apply for their own Simply Blue plan.
This is only a summary. Your contract will provide a detailed description of what is and is not covered. Services not covered include childbirth and delivery, private duty nursing, custodial care or rest cures, bariatric surgery, infertility, eyewear, dental services, services that are experimental, not medically necessary or received while on military duty. Preexisting conditions you had during the six months before your enrollment date are not covered. This limit applies for 12 months. Prior continuous coverage without a gap in coverage greater than 63 days counts toward reducing the 12-month period.
Consumer Price Index Annual Adjustment: The deductible, copay and out-of-pocket maximum amounts are subject to annual adjustments. These adjustments are based on the medical care component of the Consumer Prices Index (CPI) published by the U.S. Department of Labor. These annual adjustments are effective on the annual renewal date
How cost sharing is calculated: Copays are fl at fees you pay at the time you receive a service. Coinsurance is the percentage of charges you pay for a service. It’s based on the allowed amount. Deductible is the portion of the allowed amount you must pay. Allowed amount is the negotiated amount that participating providers have agreed to accept as full payment at the time your claim is processed. If you see a provider who doesn’t participate with Blue Cross, you are responsible for charges greater than the allowed amount, in addition to applicable coinsurance.
