IDMI Systems
Medical Plan Overview
Why the Change?
• Cost Savings – The change in the plan will save both IDMI and the
  employees money.

• Control – The new structure gives us greatly flexibility and makes
  changes easier.

• Protection – Depending on the full implementation of the current
  health care laws, the Group High Deductible plan may become
  overly burdensome for a company our size.
What is the Change?
• Structure – The medical trust account of our current plan will not
  change.

• Overall Plan – The group plan will go away with each employee
  being issued individual policies.

• Network / Carrier – There will be no change in that the bulk of our
  policies will be through Cigna.

• Coverage – No change in coverage, however, there will be certain
  advantages and additional coverage.
What are the Disadvantages?
• Applications – Everyone will have to resubmit an application.

• Medical Coverage Cards – The coverage will be implemented using
  two cards: One standard medical card from Cigna and one
  Supplemental Card.

• Eligibility – Certain employees with conditions may not qualify as an
  individual with Cigna.
How will the Two Card Work?
        •   This will be the ‘standard’ medical coverage card you are
            used to using.
Cigna
        •   It will be a high deductible plan with coverages very
            similar to the coverages we have now.




        •   This will be the supplemental medical coverage card you
            will now use at each visit.
 2nd
Card    •   It will cover a portion of your deductible and any ‘gaps’ in
            coverage that the new plan has.
What if I Don’t Qualify?
• For those that do not qualify for the Cigna plan, the application will
  be resubmitted to the state assigned plan.

• The state assigned pool is not the respective state version of
  Medicare (e.g. PeachCare).

• All insurers by law are required to participate in a state assigned
  pool for those individuals that are turned down for coverage and
  their employer does not offer a group policy.

• Once submitted, you will be assigned to a medical carrier. It may be
  Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, or even Cigna.
What is my coverage on state plan?
• The coverage will be the same.

• As discussed, by using our supplemental coverage card, that we
  control, it will augment the plan to make it the same as other
  employees.

• Your issued card from the assigned carrier will be the same card as
  if you applied individually straight to them.

• The coverages will simply be the state mandated coverage.
Other Points
• Being an individual plan, if you leave the company you can choose
  to pay the premiums and take your coverage with you.

• Many doctors are already becoming very familiar with using two
  cards, a primary and supplemental.

• If you have claims during a given year, the carrier can not adversely
  raise your premiums. The rate will stay the same.

• Certain drug programs and prescriptions will be reduced.
What are the costs?
• Depending your plan (individual, family, etc.) and your length of
  service with IDMI, your premiums will be reduced as outlined below:

               Discounts for Length of Employment
    Years   Premium Reduction           Deductible Reduction
      3           25%
      5           50%                           50%
     10           75%                          100%



• For those with less than 3 yrs, your withholdings will stay the same.
Deductible Costs?
• The deductibles / out of pocket will stay the same as they are now.

• Using the supplemental card, this is how we accomplish that.
  However, the way you pay your deductible will now be spread out.

• All out of pocket money will be in the form of co-pays:

     30        OP Hospital / Alt Care Facility   $500 copay
     40        Emergency Room                    $200 copay


• So the deductible will not be front end loaded.
How is it we can save money?
• The plans themselves have very high deductibles.

• While they are ‘Individual Plans’ the law does not allow the insurance
  carriers to adversely target an individual because of claims.

• Any increases must be across the board for your particular
  demographic category.

• In other words, you and every individual in the state make up a
  ‘group’

• Our implementation goes direct to the carrier with no agent involved.
Summary
• Your coverage will not be changing.

• Your payroll deductions will not increase and will decrease for many.

• Your out of pocket will be spread out over the year, rather than a
  huge amount up front.

• IDMI is maintaining its medical trust account to provide the flexibility
  needed.

• Lastly, we are changing TPA providers that implement this plan (i.e.
  we will no longer be using Capital Administrators)
