2016 Medical Plan Options

Health Saver 1500 (HSA)

$1,500/$3,000 deductible- An HSA Compatible plan where participants must first meet the full $1,500/$3,000 deductible (individual/family), after that any expenses are covered at 90 percent by the insurance plan up to the out of pocket maximums of $3,000/$6,000 (single/family).  After this out of pocket maximum is met, then ALL in-network claims are covered at 100 percent by the insurance plan.  But you will continue to pay a 10% Co-pay on all in-networks claims after you met the initial $1,500/$3,000 deductible...until you reach the out of pocket maximum of $3,000/$6,000...

After the out of pocket maximum is met, then ALL the in-network claims are covered at 100 percent by the insurance plan. 

The family deductible applies to the entire family. Even if one member of the family meets the $1500 claim amount, you still have to meet the entire $3000 deductible before in-network claims are paid at 90 percent.

The plan will also include a monthly Reliant employer contribution to your personal Health Savings Account. All missionaries enrolled in the HS 1500 (HSA) will also need to submit a Cafeteria Plan Enrollment Form.  See also Cafeteria Plan Memo.
