About this file

This is a Summary of Benefits and Coverage (SBC) document for the Manor Independent School District's BlueCross PPO health plan, a fully insured medical and prescription drug plan effective September 1, 2025, through August 31, 2026. The plan is offered by Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Texas and provides coverage for individual and family enrollees. The SBC outlines the plan's cost-sharing structure, including deductibles, copayments, coinsurance rates, and out-of-pocket limits for a comprehensive range of covered services such as primary care visits, specialist visits, preventive care, diagnostic testing, prescription drugs, emergency services, hospital stays, mental health services, maternity care, and rehabilitation services. In-network deductibles are $1,400 individual/$4,000 family, while out-of-network deductibles are $2,000 individual/$6,000 family. The plan's out-of-pocket limits are $7,000 individual/$14,000 family for in-network services and $23,700 individual/$47,400 family for out-of-network services.

The plan's cost structure differentiates significantly between in-network and out-of-network providers, with in-network copayments ranging from $50 for primary care visits to $95 for non-preferred brand drugs, while out-of-network services generally require 40 percent coinsurance after deductible. Notable coverage features include no copayment requirement for preventive care and diagnostic tests, a $200 individual prescription drug deductible, insulin cost-sharing capped at $25 per 30-day supply, and limitations on certain services such as home health care (60 visits annually), rehabilitation services (120 visits annually), and skilled nursing care (25 days annually). The plan excludes coverage for adult dental care, children's dental and vision care, acupuncture, bariatric surgery, cosmetic surgery, infertility treatment, and long-term care. The document references that premium information will be provided separately and directs members to contact Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Texas at 1-800-521-2227 or visit www.bcbstx.com for additional plan details and network provider information.

Important Questions Answers Why This Matters:

What is the overall deductible?

In-Network: $1,400 Individual / $4,000 Family Out-of-Network: $2,000 Individual / $6,000 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 plan, each family member must meet their own individual deductible until the total amount of deductible expenses paid by all family members meets the overall family deductible.

Are there services covered before you meet your deductible?

Yes. Services that charge a copayment, emergency room services, certain preventive care, and In-Network diagnostic tests are 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 a list of covered preventive services at www.healthcare.gov/coverage/preventive-care-benefits/.

Are there other deductibles for specific services?

Yes. $200 Individual drug deductible. There are no other specific deductibles.

You must pay all of the costs for these services up to the specific deductible amount before this plan begins to pay for these services.

What is the out-of-pocket limit for this plan?

In-Network: $7,000 Individual / $14,000 Family Out-of-Network: $23,700 Individual / $47,400 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 has been 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 www.bcbstx.com or call 1-800-810-2583 for a list of network providers.

This plan uses a provider network. You will pay less if you use a provider in the plan’s network. You will 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 can see the specialist you choose without a referral.
