Pre-1993 Retirees generally keep what they have today unless plan is no longer offered.
Post-Medicare Retirees have a choice of two (2) Plans: their current Medicare/United or BC/BS option or an Alternative medical plan w/higher deductibles & out of pocket costs.
Post 1993 Retirees (pre-Medicare) have a choice of keeping what they have today w/a monthly premium or choosing the Alternative medical plan w/a higher deductible & higher out of pocket costs, but no monthly premium.
Other Changes to look for include: Rx Deductibles, Rx Co-pays, Diet, Fertility, ED Drugs no longer covered, Preventative Care not covered at all out of network, but generally covered 100% in-network if a preventative code is billed by the provider, working spouse premiums are eliminated, the alternative $250 PPO plan offered last year is no longer an option, Medicare Part B reimbursement is the same. (These changes may not impact all retirees). |
