About this file

This document is a City of Tucson retiree medical benefits plan document for a Network Medical Benefits Retiree Only Plan, effective July 1, 2024, administered through Cigna. The plan provides comprehensive medical coverage for retired employees, including in-network medical services, prescription drug benefits, mental health and substance use disorder services, and various specialized treatments such as gene therapy, cellular therapy, and transplant services. The plan features an annual individual deductible of $500 and a family maximum of $1,000, with an out-of-pocket maximum of $6,350 for individuals and $12,700 for families.

The plan offers a tiered prescription drug benefit structure with copayments varying by drug type (generic, preferred brand, non-preferred brand) and pharmacy type (retail, designated pharmacy, home delivery). Preventive medications are covered at no cost, and the plan includes provisions for specialized services like telehealth, convenience care clinics, and direct access to mental health services. Participants have access to case management services, and the plan provides coverage for a wide range of medical needs, including emergency services, urgent care, preventive care, diagnostic testing, and chronic condition management. The document also outlines comprehensive details about COBRA continuation, Medicare coordination, and various federal healthcare requirements and patient rights.

Special Plan Provisions Case Management Case Management is a service provided through a Review Organization, which assists individuals with treatment needs that extend beyond the acute care setting. The goal of Case Management is to ensure that patients receive appropriate care in the most effective setting possible whether at home, as an outpatient, or an inpatient in a Hospital or specialized facility.

Should the need for Case Management arise, a Case Management professional will work closely with the patient, his or her family and the attending Physician to determine appropriate treatment options which will best meet the patient's needs and keep costs manageable. The Case Manager will help coordinate the treatment program and arrange for necessary resources. Case Managers are also available to answer questions and provide ongoing support for the family in times of medical crisis.

Case Managers are Registered Nurses (RNs) and other credentialed health care professionals, each trained in a clinical specialty area such as trauma, high risk pregnancy and neonates, oncology, mental health, rehabilitation or general medicine and surgery. A Case Manager trained in the appropriate clinical specialty area will be assigned to you or your dependent. In addition, Case Managers are supported by a panel of Physician advisors who offer guidance on up-to-date treatment programs and medical technology. While the Case Manager recommends alternate treatment programs and helps coordinate needed resources, the patient's attending Physician remains responsible for the actual medical care.

• You, your dependent or an attending Physician can request

Case Management services by calling the toll-free number shown on your ID card during normal business hours, Monday through Friday. In addition, your employer, a claim office or a utilization review program (see the PAC/CSR section of your certificate) may refer an individual for Case Management.

• The Review Organization assesses each case to determine whether Case Management is appropriate.

• You or your Dependent is contacted by an assigned Case Manager who explains in detail how the program works.

Participation in the program is voluntary - no penalty or benefit reduction is imposed if you do not wish to participate in Case Management.

• Following an initial assessment, the Case Manager works with you, your family and Physician to determine the needs of the patient and to identify what alternate treatment programs are available (for example, in-home medical care in lieu of an extended Hospital convalescence). You are not penalized if the alternate treatment program is not followed.

• The Case Manager arranges for alternate treatment services and supplies, as needed (for example, nursing services or a Hospital bed and other Durable Medical Equipment for the home).

• The Case Manager also acts as a liaison between the insurer, the patient, his or her family and Physician as needed (for example, by helping you to understand a complex medical diagnosis or treatment plan).

• Once the alternate treatment program is in place, the Case Manager continues to manage the case to ensure the treatment program remains appropriate to the patient's needs.

While participation in Case Management is strictly voluntary, Case Management professionals can offer quality, cost-effective treatment alternatives, as well as provide assistance in obtaining needed medical resources and ongoing family support in a time of need.

Additional Programs We may, from time to time, offer or arrange for various entities to offer discounts, benefits, or other consideration to our members for the purpose of promoting the general health and well being of our members. We may also arrange for the reimbursement of all or a portion of the cost of services provided by other parties to the Policyholder. Contact us for details regarding any such arrangements.

Incentives to Participating Providers Cigna continuously develops programs to help our customers access quality, cost-effective health care. Some programs include Participating Providers receiving financial incentives from Cigna for providing care to members in a way that meets or exceeds certain quality and/or cost-efficiency standards, when, in the Participating Provider’s professional judgment, it is appropriate to do so within the applicable standard of care.

For example, some Participating Providers could receive financial incentives for utilizing or referring you to alternative sites of care as determined by your plan rather than in a more expensive setting, or achieving particular outcomes for certain health conditions. Participating Providers may also receive myCigna.com7 purchasing discounts when purchasing certain prescription drugs from Cigna affiliates. Such programs can help make you healthier, decrease your health care costs, or both. These programs are not intended to affect your access to the health care that you need. We encourage you to talk to your Participating Provider if you have questions about whether they receive financial incentives from Cigna and whether those incentives apply to your care.

HC-SPP85 01-24

Notice Regarding Emergency Services and Urgent Care In the event of an Emergency, get help immediately. Go to the nearest emergency room, the nearest Hospital or call or ask someone to call 911 or your local emergency service, police or fire department for help. You do not need a referral from your PCP for Emergency Services, but you need to call your PCP as soon as possible for further assistance and advice on follow-up care. If you require specialty care or a Hospital admission, your PCP will coordinate it and handle the necessary authorizations for care or hospitalization.

Participating Providers are on call 24 hours a day, seven days a week to assist you when you need Emergency Services.

If you receive Emergency Services outside the service area, you must notify the Review Organization as soon as reasonably possible. The Review Organization may arrange to have you transferred to a Participating Provider for continuing or follow-up care, if it is determined to be medically safe to do so.

Urgent Care Inside the Service Area For Urgent Care inside the service area, you must take all reasonable steps to contact your PCP for direction and you must receive care from a Participating Provider, unless otherwise authorized by your PCP or the Review Organization.

Urgent Care Outside the Service Area In the event you need Urgent Care while outside the service area, you should, whenever possible, contact your PCP for direction and authorization prior to receiving services.

Continuing or Follow-up Treatment Continuing or follow-up treatment, whether in or out of the service area is not covered unless it is provided or arranged for by your PCP or upon prior authorization by the Review Organization.

Care Management and Care Coordination Services Your plan may enter into specific collaborative arrangements with health care professionals committed to improving quality care, patient satisfaction and affordability. Through these collaborative arrangements, health care professionals commit to proactively providing participants with certain care management and care coordination services to facilitate achievement of these goals. Reimbursement is provided at 100% for these services when rendered by designated health care professionals in these collaborative arrangements.

Important Notices Important Information Rebates and Other Payments Cigna or its affiliates may receive rebates or other remuneration from pharmaceutical manufacturers in connection with certain Medical Pharmaceuticals covered under your plan and Prescription Drug Products included on the Prescription Drug List. These rebates or remuneration are not obtained on you or your Employer’s or plan’s behalf or for your benefit.

Cigna, its affiliates and the plan are not obligated to pass these rebates on to you, or apply them to your plan’s Deductible if any or take them into account in determining your Copayments and/or Coinsurance. Cigna and its affiliates or designees, conduct business with various pharmaceutical manufacturers separate and apart from this plan’s Medical Pharmaceutical and Prescription Drug Product benefits. Such business may include, but is not limited to, data collection, consulting, educational grants and research. Amounts received from pharmaceutical manufacturers pursuant to such arrangements are not related to this plan. Cigna and its affiliates are not required to pass on to you, and do not pass on to you, such amounts.

Coupons, Incentives and Other Communications At various times, Cigna or its designee may send mailings to you or your Dependents or to your Physician that communicate a variety of messages, including information about Medical Pharmaceuticals and Prescription Drug Products. These mailings may contain coupons or offers from pharmaceutical manufacturers that enable you or your Dependents, at your discretion, to purchase the described Medical Pharmaceutical and Prescription Drug Product at a discount or to obtain it at no charge. Pharmaceutical manufacturers may pay for and/or provide the content for these mailings. Cigna, its affiliates and the plan are not myCigna.com8 responsible in any way for any decision you make in connection with any coupon, incentive, or other offer you may receive from a pharmaceutical manufacturer or Physician.

If Cigna determines that a Pharmacy, pharmaceutical manufacturer or other third party is or has waived, reduced, or forgiven any portion of the charges and/or any portion of Copayment, Deductible, and/or Coinsurance amount(s) you are required to pay for a Prescription Drug Product without Cigna’s express consent, then Cigna in its sole discretion shall have the right to deny the payment of plan benefits in connection with the Prescription Drug Product, or reduce the benefits in proportion to the amount of the Copayment, Deductible, and/or Coinsurance amounts waived, forgiven or reduced, regardless of whether the Pharmacy, pharmaceutical manufacturer or other third party represents that you remain responsible for any amounts that your plan does not cover. In the exercise of that discretion, Cigna shall have the right to require you to provide proof sufficient to Cigna that you have made your required cost share payment(s) prior to the payment of any benefits by the plan.

For example, if you use a coupon provided by a pharmaceutical manufacturer or other third party that discounts the cost of a Prescription Drug Product, Cigna may, in its sole discretion, reduce the benefits provided under the plan in proportion to the amount of the Copayment, Deductible, and/or Coinsurance amounts to which the value of the coupon has been applied by the Pharmacy or other third party, and/or exclude from accumulation toward any plan Deductible or Out-of-Pocket Maximum the value of any coupon applied to any Copayment, Deductible and/or Coinsurance you are required to pay.

Specialty Prescription Drug Manufacturer Assistance and Support Benefit Certain Specialty Prescription Drugs on the Prescription Drug List will not have their cost applied toward satisfying the Out-of-Pocket Maximum. A list of these Specialty Prescription Drugs and the applicable Coinsurance for each Specialty Prescription Drug can be accessed at www.saveonsp.com/cigna.

This list will change from time to time.

If you are prescribed one of these Specialty Prescription Drugs, you will be contacted by SaveOn SP, LLC ("SaveOnSP") and required to enroll in the applicable prescription drug manufacturer assistance or support program.

Once enrolled, you provide SaveOn SP with consent to monitor your account. Any Coinsurance required for Specialty Prescription Drugs and/or any Coinsurance remaining after the available prescription drug manufacturer assistance is applied or is exhausted will be credited, and your Out-of-Pocket cost share will be reduced to $0.00. In the event you fail to enroll in the applicable prescription drug manufacturer assistance or support program, or you do not provide consent to SaveOnSP to monitor your account, you will be responsible for the full required Coinsurance for the Specialty Prescription Drug without such payment applying to the Out-of-Pocket Maximum.

In the event you enroll, or attempt to enroll, in the applicable/available prescription drug manufacturer assistance or support program and are denied any and all prescription drug manufacturer assistance or support due to a prescription drug manufacturer and/or legal restriction, the required Coinsurance for the Specialty Prescription Drugs will be credited and your Out-of-Pocket cost share will be reduced to $0.00, so long as you have given SaveOnSP consent to monitor your account.

HC-NOT97 07-17

Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act of 2008 (MHPAEA) - Non-Quantitative Treatment Limitations (NQTLs) Federal MHPAEA regulations provide that a plan cannot impose a Non-Quantitative Treatment Limitation (NQTL) on mental health or substance use disorder (MH/SUD) benefits in any classification unless the processes, strategies, evidentiary standards, or other factors used in applying the NQTL to MH/SUD benefits are comparable to, and are applied no more stringently than, those used in applying the NQTL to medical/surgical benefits in the same classification of benefits as written and in operation under the terms of the plan.

A description of your plan’s NQTL methodologies and processes applied to medical/surgical benefits and MH/SUD benefits is available by accessing the link at www.cigna.com/sp.

To determine which document applies to your plan, select the relevant health plan product; medical management model (inpatient only or inpatient and outpatient) which can be located in this booklet immediately following The Schedule;

and pharmacy coverage (whether or not your plan includes pharmacy coverage).

HC-NOT137 01-24

How To File Your Claim If your plan provides coverage when care is received only from In-Network providers, you may still have Out-of- Network claims (for example, when Emergency Services are received from an Out-of-Network provider) and should follow the claim submission instructions for those claims. Claims can be submitted by the provider if the provider is able and willing to file on your behalf. If the provider is not submitting on your behalf, you must send your completed claim form and itemized bills to the claims address listed on the claim form.

You may get the required claim forms from the website listed on your identification card or by using the toll-free number on your identification card.

CLAIM REMINDERS

• BE SURE TO USE YOUR MEMBER ID AND

ACCOUNT/GROUP NUMBER WHEN YOU FILE

CIGNA’S CLAIM FORMS, OR WHEN YOU CALL

• BE SURE TO FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS LISTED

WHEN SUBMITTING A CLAIM TO CIGNA.

Timely Filing of Out-of-Network Claims Cigna will consider claims for coverage under our plans when proof of loss (a claim) is submitted within 180 days for Out-of-Network benefits after services are rendered. If services are rendered on consecutive days, such as for a Hospital Confinement, the limit will be counted from the last date of service. If claims are not submitted within 180 days for Out-of-Network benefits, the claim will not be considered valid and will be denied.

WARNING: Any person who knowingly and with intent to defraud any insurance company or other person files an application for insurance or statement of claim containing any materially false information; or conceals for the purpose of misleading, information concerning any material fact thereto, commits a fraudulent insurance act.

Eligibility for Dependent Insurance You will become eligible for Dependent Insurance on the later of:

• the day you become eligible for yourself; or

• the day you acquire your first Dependent.

myCigna.com11

Classes of Eligible Employees Each retired Employee as reported to the insurance company by your former Employer.

Effective Date of Employee Insurance You will become insured on the date you elect the insurance by signing a written agreement with the Policyholder to make the required contribution, but no earlier than the date you become eligible. To be insured for these benefits, you must elect the insurance for yourself no later than 30 days after your retirement.

Dependent Insurance For your Dependents to be insured, you will have to pay the required contribution, if any, toward the cost of Dependent Insurance.

Effective Date of Dependent Insurance Insurance for your Dependents will become effective on the date you elect it by signing a written agreement with the Policyholder to make the required contribution, but no earlier than the day you become eligible for Dependent Insurance.

Important Information About Your Medical Plan Details of your medical benefits are described on the following pages.

Primary Care Physician This medical plan does not require that you select a Primary Care Physician or obtain a referral from a Primary Care Physician in order to receive all benefits available to you under this medical plan. Notwithstanding, a Primary Care Physician may serve an important role in meeting your health care needs by providing or arranging for medical care for you and your Dependents. For this reason, we encourage the use of Primary Care Physicians and provide you with the Primary Care Physician from a list provided by Cigna for yourself and your Dependents. If you choose to select a Primary Care Physician, the Primary Care Physician you select for yourself may be different from the Primary Care Physician you select for each of your Dependents. If you need assistance selecting your Primary Care Physician, please visit our website at www.cigna.com or call the number on the back of your ID Card.

The Primary Care Physician's role is to provide or arrange for medical care for you and any of your Dependents.

Referrals to Specialists You must obtain a referral from your Primary Care Physician before visiting any provider other than your Primary Care Physician. The referral authorizes the specific number of visits that you may make to the provider within a specified period of time.

Changing Primary Care Physicians You may request a transfer from one Primary Care Physician to another by visiting our website at www.cigna.com or calling the number on the back of your ID Card. Any such transfer will be effective on the first day of the month following the month in which the processing of the change request is completed.

In addition, if at any time a Primary Care Physician ceases to be a Participating Provider, you or your Dependent will be notified.

Selection of a Primary Care Physician This plan requires the designation of a Primary Care Physician for yourself and your Dependents. You have the right to designate any Primary Care Physician who participates in the network and who is available to accept you or your family members. The Primary Care Physician you select for yourself may be different from the Primary Care Physician you select for each of your Dependents. Until you make this designation, Cigna designates one for you. For information on how to select a Primary Care Physician, and for a list of participating Primary Care Physicians, visit our website at www.cigna.com or call the number on the back of your ID Card. For children, you may designate a pediatrician as the Primary Care Physician.

Direct Access For Mental Health and Substance Use Disorder Services You are allowed direct access to a licensed/certified Participating Provider for covered Mental Health and Substance Use Disorder Services. There is no requirement to obtain an authorization of care from your Primary Care Physician for individual or group therapy visits to the myCigna.com12

Participating Provider of your choice for Mental Health and Substance Use Disorder.

Network Medical Benefits

The Schedule For You and Your Dependents

Network Medical Benefits provide coverage for care In-Network. To receive Network Medical Benefits, you and your Dependents may be required to pay a portion of the Covered Expenses for services and supplies. That portion is the Copayment, Deductible or Coinsurance.

When you receive services from an In-Network Provider, remind your provider to utilize In-Network Providers for x-rays, lab tests and other services to ensure the cost may be considered at the In-Network level.

If you are unable to locate an In-Network Provider in your area who can provide you with a service or supply that is covered under this plan, you must call the number on the back of your I.D. card to obtain authorization for Out-of- Network Provider coverage. If you obtain authorization for services provided by an Out-of-Network Provider, benefits for those services will be covered at the In-Network benefit level.

Important Notice on Mental Health and Substance Use Disorder Coverage Covered medical services received to diagnose or treat a Mental Health or Substance Use Disorder condition will be payable according to the Mental Health and Substance Use Disorder sections of The Schedule.

Coinsurance The term Coinsurance means the percentage of Covered Expenses that an insured person is required to pay under the plan in addition to the Deductible, if any.

Copayments/Deductibles Copayments are amounts to be paid by you or your Dependent for covered services. Deductibles are Covered Expenses to be paid by you or your Dependent before benefits are payable under this plan. Deductible amounts are separate from and not reduced by Copayments. Copayments and Deductibles are in addition to any Coinsurance. Once the Deductible maximum in The Schedule has been reached, you and your family need not satisfy any further medical deductible for the rest of that year.

Contract Year Contract Year means a 12 month period beginning on each 07/01.

Out-of-Pocket Expenses

Out-of-Pocket Expenses are Covered Expenses incurred for charges that are not paid by the benefit plan. The following Expenses contribute to the Out-of-Pocket Maximum, and when the Out-of-Pocket Maximum shown in The Schedule is reached, they are payable by the benefit plan at 100%:

• Coinsurance.

• Plan Deductible.

• Copays The following Out-of-Pocket Expenses and charges do not contribute to the Out-of-Pocket Maximum, and they are not payable by the benefit plan at 100% when the Out-of-Pocket Maximum shown in The Schedule is reached:

• Non-compliance penalties..

The Schedule Guest Privileges If you or one of your Dependents will be residing temporarily in another location where there are In-Network Providers, you may be eligible for Point of Service Medical Benefits at that location. However, the benefits available at the host location may differ from those described in this certificate. Refer to your Benefit Summary from the host location or contact your Employer for more information.

Assistant Surgeon and Co-Surgeon Charges

Assistant Surgeon The maximum amount payable will be limited to charges made by an assistant surgeon that do not exceed a percentage of the surgeon's allowable charge as specified in Cigna Reimbursement Policies.
