GENERAL PROVISIONS

Dependents who are eligible to be on your plan

Spouse, children from birth to age 26. Student status of children does not matter.

**We cover the cost of services based on whether doctors are "in network" or "out of network." We want to help you understand how much we pay for your out-of-network care. At the same time, we want to make it clear how much more you will need to pay for this "out-of-network" care.

You may choose a provider (doctor or hospital) in our network. You may choose to visit an out-of-network provider. If you choose a doctor who is out of network, your health plan may pay some of that doctor's bill. Most of the time, you will pay a lot more money out of your own pocket if you choose to use an out-of-network doctor or hospital.

When you choose out-of-network care, we limit the amount it will pay. This limit is called the "recognized" or "allowed" amount.

This amount is based on the out-of-network plan you or your employer picks.

• For doctors and other professionals the amount is based on the "prevailing" charges. We get this data from an external database.

• For hospitals and other facilities, the amount is based on the Facility Fee Schedule.

Your doctor sets his or her own rate to charge you. It may be higher -- sometimes much higher -- than what your plan "recognizes." Your doctor may bill you for the dollar amount that we don't "recognize." You must also pay any copayments, coinsurance and deductibles under your plan. No dollar amount above the "recognized charge" counts toward your deductible or out-of-pocket maximums. To learn more about how we pay out-of-network benefits visit our website.

You can avoid these extra costs by getting your care from Aetna's broad network of health care providers. Go to www.aetna.com and click on "Find a Doctor" on the left side of the page. If you are already a member, sign on to your Navigator member site.

This applies when you choose to get care out of network. When you have no choice (for example: emergency room visit after a car accident, or for other emergency services), we will pay the bill as if you got care in network. You pay cost sharing and deductibles for your in-network level of benefits. Contact us if your provider asks you to pay more.

You are not responsible for any outstanding balance billed by your providers for emergency services beyond your cost sharing and deductibles.

This way of paying out-of-network doctors and hospitals applies when you choose to get care out of network. When you have no choice (for example: emergency room visit after a car accident), we will pay the bill as if you got care in-network. You pay your plan's copayments and deductibles for your in-network level of benefits. Contact us if your provider asks you to pay more. You are not responsible for any outstanding balance billed by your providers for emergency services beyond your copayments and deductibles.
