INTRODUCTION

Understanding Your Plan Options

When the School District of Clayton reviews our employee benefits options, we focus not only on providing quality medical plans but also on controlling the cost and financial risk for employees. We are proud to offer a broad benefits package to eligible, full - time employees. The complete benefits package is briefly summarized in this booklet. T he School District of Clayton provides some benefits at no premium cost to you. Based upon your benefit selections, you may share the premium cost. In addition, there are voluntary benefits with reasonable group rates that you can purchase through the School District of Clayton with payroll deductions.

Benefits Offered

◼ Three medical plans administered by Anthem: a Base Plan, Buy - Up Plan, and a Qualified High Deductible Health Plan (QHDHP). If you select the QHDHP, the District contributes $125 per month from the allotment into your Health Savings Ac- count. ◼ Each medical plan offers a choice of either a Blue Access Choice full network which includes the BJC provider network or the Blue Preferred Select narrow network which does not include the BJC provider network. The District offers several plans at no premium cost to the employee. Additionally, the District subsidizes the spouse/dependent premiums of medical plans.

◼ Two dental plans - one is offered through Guardian Dental PPO and the other through Cigna DHMO.

Vision plan through EyeMed.

◼ Basic Life / AD&D and Supplemental Life / AD&D offered through Equitable.

◼ Long - Term Disability offered through Equitable.

◼ Worksite products to include Critical Illness, Accident and Universal Life with Long - Term Care offered through Trustmark.

◼ The District provides eligible employees an allotment to help pay for the employee premium for medical, dental and vision plans. The 202 4 total allotment is $84 8.54 per month per eligible employee ($800 medical, $41.72 dental, $6.82 vision).

◼ The District offers an $1,800 stipend to any employee who elects to waive medical coverage. The stipend is divided equally over the course of the plan year on each pay date. You must be eligible for the medical insurance and prove you are covered elsewhere. A signed waiver is required and the stipend is paid as taxable income.

What ’ s Inside? This brochure provides an overview of your benefit options. If you have any questions after you enroll, please call the carriers directly or log on to their websites.

*If you elect to enroll in the Qualified High Deductible Health Plan (QHDHP), you are required to enroll in the Health Savings Account. The District requires $125 per month from the benefit allocation to be deposited into your Health Savings Account. The School District of Clayton offers employees the ability to choose between two network options for each medical plan .

◼ Full Network —This network includes all the hospitals and affiliated physicians in the Anthem network. This is the Anthem Blue Access Choice network.

◼ Narrow Network (No BJC) - The narrow network plans have a lower premium (approximately 6% lower), but as a trade - off, your choice of providers is limited. This network excludes all BJC hospitals and affiliated physicians. This is the Anthem Blue Preferred network.

Medical Plan Network Options

Medical Plan Network Options It is important to know your network, and the providers in it, to avoid high er out - of - pocket costs due to being out - of - network. ◼ You might consider a narrow network if you are healthy. The lower premium may balance out the smaller net- work if you usually only visit your doctor for regular health exams. Narrow networks can be enough if you don ’ t see a lot of specialists or need many medical tests. ◼ You might need a larger network if you or a family member needs a lot of care. If you have a chronic health problem like diabetes or heart disease, a narrow network could limit your choices. If you leave your network, your out - of - pocket costs could add up quickly. Be sure to study each network with care to make sure you are able to visit your regular providers. Search the plan ’ s list of providers (available online) by your zip code. See if your provider or how many other providers are close to where you live and work. Below is a sample list of hospitals that are not included in the narrow network:

Alton Memorial

Northwest Healthcare

All Barnes - Jewish Hospitals

Parkland Health Center

Christian Hospital

Progress West Hospital Rehab Institute of St. Louis

Goldfarb School of Nursing

Memorial Hospital East & Belleville

St. Louis Children ’ s Hospital

Missouri Baptist Medical Center & Sullivan

Washington University

This is not a complete list of excluded providers. Be sure to check with your provider to confirm which network they are affiliated with. This also applies to urgent care, outpatient and imaging centers. A complete list of providers can be found on the Anthem website. If you enroll in the narrow network option, you will be required to sign a document stating you understand the provisions of this plan and that if you go to a BJC provider in this option for a non - emergency visit, the cost will be subject to your out - of - network benefits. If you choose to “ waive ” the medical coverage, you will receive a monthly opt out allocation of $150 . In order to receive this allocation, you must return the “ waiver form ” to the Business Office. This form is available on the Benefit Allocation page on the enrollment website.

Health Savings Account (HSA)

What is an HSA?

A savings account set up by either you or your company where you can either direct pre - tax payroll deductions or deposit money to be used by you to pay for current or future medical expenses for you and/or your dependents. Once money goes into the account, it's yours to spend on eligible healthcare costs. The HSA is held in your name, just like a personal checking or savings account.

Why would I want an HSA?

Because you fund the HSA with pre - tax funds, you are using tax - free funds for healthcare expenses you would normally pay for out - of - pocket using after - tax dollars. HSA contributions do NOT count toward your taxable income for federal taxes.

What Rules Must I Follow?

■ You must be covered under a Q ualified High Deductible Health Plan (QHDHP) in order to establish an HSA.

■ You cannot establish an HSA if your spouse has a medical flexible spending account (FSA) through their employer.

■ You cannot set up an HSA if you have insurance coverage under another plan, for example your spouse ’ s employer, unless that secondary coverage is also a qualified high deductible health plan.

■ You cannot be enrolled in Medicare or Tricare.

■ You cannot be claimed as a dependent under someone else ’ s tax return.

What is the Difference Between a Qualified High Deductible Health Plan and a Traditional PPO Plan?

In a QHDHP, all services received, with the exception of preventive office visits, are applied to the deductible and coinsurance first. This would include office visits that are not preventive, emergency room visits, and prescription drugs. You will, however, still have the opportunity to benefit from the discounts associated with using a network physician or facility. If you or your family have high prescription drug costs, you may want to consider the Base plan over the QHDP to help cover those expenses.

What Else Do I Need to Know?

■ The IRS sets HSA contribution limits yearly, which are listed under “ Total Annual Maximum Contribution ” in the table below. You cannot put more than this amount in the account in a calendar year; you can put less.

■ HSA contributions from your paycheck are tax - free, grow tax - free, and are paid out as tax - free as long as you utilize the fu nds for approved services (medical, dental, vision and OTC medically-necessary items).

202 4 Total Annual Maximum Contribution

$ 4,150 $ 8,300

Employee

Employee + Family

■ Unspent contributions roll over from year to year and can be taken with you if you leave your current job.

■ If you use the HSA for non - qualified expenses, that money becomes taxable and subject to a 20% excise tax penalty (like in an IRA account). ■ Once you turn 65, become disabled and/or qualify for Medicare, you can use the account for other than eligible medical purposes without paying the 20% penalty, but you will pay income taxes. ■ The savings account can be established with your employer, so you can take advantage of payroll deductions on a pre - tax basis. ■ The $1,500 employer contribution is not front - loaded and will be evenly allocated over each pay period throughout the benefit year and will be prorated based on calendar date of hire for a new enrollment or qualifying life event plan change.

Health Savings Account (HSA) cont ’ d.

Generally, you can put enough in your HSA to cover most of your deductible .

The Qualified High Deductible Health Plan helps you pay for healthcare AFTER you meet the deductible. The annual contribution limit is based on IRS rules. In general, the total amount that goes in your account each year cannot be more than the IRS annual contribution limit. If you are age 55 or older, you are allowed to make an extra $1,000 catch - up contribution each year. You can spend only the money that is actually in your HSA. If your healthcare expenses are more than your HSA balance, you need to pay the remaining cost another way, such as cash or personal check. You can request reimbursement after you have accumulated more money.

Facts and tips Your account can grow over time... Since the money always belongs to you, even if you leave The School District of Clayton, any unspent funds carry over from year to year, so you never have to worry about losing your money. That means if you do not use a lot of healthcare services now, your HSA funds will be there if you need them in the future – even after retirement. HSA ’ s are also an investment opportunity … With an HSA, your account can grow tax - free in an interest - bearing savings account, a money market account, a wide variety of mutual funds – or all three. Of course, your funds are always available if you need them for qualified healthcare expenses.

You can use your HSA for your spouse and dependents – even if they are not covered by your High Deductible Health Plan.

You can use HSA funds for IRS - approved items such as …

Physical & speech therapy

Orthodontia, cleanings & fillings

Dental services

Doctor ’ s office visits

Eye exams & eyeglasses

Laser eye surgery

Hearing aids

Chiropractic expenses

Contact lenses & solution

Prescription drugs

More information about approved items, plus additional details about the HSA, is available on the IRS Website at irs.gov .

Every time you use your HSA, save your receipt in case the IRS asks you to prove your claim was for a qualified expense. If you use HSA funds for a non - qualified expense, you will pay taxes and a penalty on the ineligible amount.

Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA)

Any amount contributed to your FSA account but not spent or used by December 31, 202 4 is lost to the account holder. Money in your FSA does NOT roll over and must be used by December 31, 202 4 . You will have 90 days after 12/31/2 4 to turn in all receipts for medical expenses incurred in 202 4.

Administered by CBIZ Flex , Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) allow an employee to set aside a portion of earnings to pay for qualified expenses as established in the cafeteria plan. Money deducted from an employee's pay into an FSA is not subject to payroll taxes, resulting in substantial payroll tax savings. Open enrollment allows you the opportunity to enroll in and/or increase your election amounts for your Flexible Spending Account. Therefore, now is the time to gauge how much you utilize your benefits and how much money you spend in deductibles and copayments each year so that you can properly enroll in the FSA . Please note, you must set up an ACH Direct Debit through CBIZ for reimbursement. Medical Reimbursement FSA This account allows employees the opportunity to pay for eligible medical, dental, and vision expenses that are not paid in full through insurance coverage. Many members use this account for deductible amounts, copayments, eyeglasses, over the counter medications with a physician ’ s prescription, root canals, etc. You may contribute a maximum of $ 3,050 during 202 4 , measured January 1 through December 31. You cannot contribute to an FSA if you are enrolled in the QHDHP. Dependent Care Reimbursement FSA May be used to set aside pre - tax dollars that are used to pay for daycare expenses for a child under age 13 or the care of a disabled spouse or dependent of any age. You and your spouse must both work or be full - time students to qualify. You are allowed to contribute a maximum of $5,000 during 202 4 to the Dependent Care FSA if you are married and filing a joint tax return or are filing a single head of household tax return. Married couples filing separate returns are allowed to claim a maximum of $2,500 each. In most cases, there is substantially more tax savings with this plan than there is with the “ tax credit ” that you get when doing your tax return. It is best to discuss your options with your tax advisor if you have any concerns. Employees may participate in a Health Savings Account (HSA) along with a Dependent Care FSA.

Facts and tips Tracking your health care deductibles can help you make better decisions at open enrollment time when considering a Medical Reimbursement FSA. Know the following:

The total amount of your deductibles

◼ What expenses don ’ t count towards your deductible ◼ How often you actually meet your deductible ◼ Medical exams or services you ’ ll need during the year

Dental Insurance—Guardian Dental PPO

To find a participating dentist, visit www.guardiananytime.com . The list of available dentists is not guaranteed and it is advisable to ask your dentist if they are currently participating or accepting new patients. Although the Guardian Dental plan allows you the freedom to visit any licensed dentist, you will save more on your out - of - pocket costs when you visit a Guardian PPO dentist. The Guardian Platinum network also provides cost saving features and is the next best option. Ask your dentist if they are a Guardian Platinum or Gold/Silver provider to choose the plan that ’ s right for you. The dentist you choose could affect your cost.

Plan Design - Administered by Guardian Dental

Facts and tips You are always free to select the dentist of your choice. However, if you choose a dentist who does not participate in the Guardian program, your out - of - pocket expenses may be greater, since you will be responsible to pay for any difference between the dentist's fee and your plan's payment for the approved service. If you receive services from a participating dentist, you are only responsible for the difference between the in - network fee for the service provided and your plan's payment for the approved service. Please note: any plan deductibles must be met before benefits are paid.

Care Options

While we recommend that you seek routine medical care from your primary care physician whenever possible, there are alternatives available to you. Services may vary, so it ’ s a good idea to visit the care provider ’ s website. Be sure to check that the facility is in - network by calling the toll - free number on the back of your medical ID card, or by visiting anthem.com . . PRIMARY CARE - For routine, primary/preventive care, or non - urgent treatment, we recommend going to your doctor ’ s office for medical care. Your doctor knows you and your health history, and has access to your medical records. You may also pay the least amount out - of - pocket when you receive care in your doctor ’ s office. VIRTUAL VISITS - Lets you see and talk to a doctor from your mobile device or computer without an appointment, anytime and anywhere! Anthem ’ s LiveHealth Online brings you care from the comfort and convenience of your home or wherever you are. CONVENIENCE CARE - Sometimes, you may not be able to get to your doctor ’ s office, and your condition is not urgent or an emergency. In these situations, you may want to consider a Convenience Care Center that can be an alternative to seeing your doctor. Convenience Care Centers are conveniently located often in malls or some retail stores, and offer services without the need to schedule an appointment. Services at a Convenience Care Center may be provided at a lower out - of - pocket cost than an urgent care center visit and are subject to primary care physician office visit copays and/or deductible/coinsurance. Services at a Convenience Care Center are generally available to patients 18 months of age or older. Services that are available may vary per center. We do, however, recommend that you seek routine medical care from your primary care physician whenever possible.

Facts and tips You have options when it comes to you or your loved ones ’ care. This list only provides examples and is not intended as an exclusive list. If you believe you or your loved one is experiencing an emergency medical condition, you should go to the nearest emergency room or call 911, even if your symptoms are not described here.

URGENT CARE - Sometimes you may need medical care fast, but a trip to the emergency room may not be necessary. Of course, during office hours, you may be able to go to your doctor for any urgently needed service; however, if you require urgent care outside your doctor ’ s regular office hours or you are unable to be seen by your doctor immediately, you may consider going to an urgent care center. At an urgent care center, you can generally be treated for many minor medical problems faster than at an emergency room. We do however, recommend that you seek routine medical care from your primary care physician whenever possible.

Care Options cont ’ d.

Services that are available for urgent care may vary per center. If you choose to use an urgent care center, please make sure it is in - network by calling the toll - free number on the back of your medical ID card or visiting Anthem ’ s website at anthem.com .

LAB SERVICES - Both Quest and LabCorp are Anthem preferred labs.

EMERGENCY ROOM - If you think you or your loved one may be experiencing an emergency medical condition, you should go to the nearest emergency room or call 911. An emergency medical condition is any condition (including severe pain), which you believe that without immediate medical care may result in: ■ Serious jeopardy to you or your loved one ’ s health, including the health of a pregnant woman or her unborn child ■ Serious impairment to you or your loved one ’ s bodily functions ■ Serious dysfunction of any of you or your loved one ’ s bodily organ or part

If you obtain care at an emergency room, you will likely pay more out - of - pocket than if you were treated at your doctor ’ s office, a Convenience Care Center or Urgent Care facility.

PRESCRIPTION BENEFITS - Most prescriptions are filled right away when you take them to the pharmacy. However, some drugs need to be reviewed by Anthem and approved before they are covered. This process, called prior authorization , helps ensure drugs are used as recommended by the FDA. Prior authorization focuses mainly on drugs that may have:

■ Risk of serious side effects or dangerous drug interactions ■

Better alternatives that may cost you less

■ Restrictions for use with very specific conditions

High potential for incorrect use or abuse

Prior authorization may require you to take an additional step when you are prescribed certain medications, but the long - term gain is lower out - of - pocket prescription costs for you and reduced claims expense for The School District of Clayton and potentially lower future renewal increases. Some prescription drugs are covered only if the physician obtains prior authorization from Anthem. In addition, coverage for some drugs is provided in limited quantities and duration.

This is only a brief summary of benefits. The Certificate, issued when coverage is approved for the group, contains program details, and will, in all cases, have control over any information in this summary. The certificate is available upon request.

PREVENTIVE CARE - Certain preventive services will be covered without charging a deductible, copayment, or coinsurance when these services are provided by a network provider. The types of preventive services covered are defined by federal law and can vary based on your age, gender, and health status. There may be services you had in the past that will now be covered as preventive at no cost to you. The preventive services included in this provision are described at healthcare.gov. WOMEN ’ S PREVENTIVE CARE COVERAGE - Your health plan will provide first dollar coverage for certain women ’ s preventive coverage without any cost sharing requirements (copayment, coinsurance or deductible), when delivered by in - network providers. This includes 100% coverage for FDA - approved tier 1 contraceptive methods for women when filled at an in - network pharmacy.

Coverage is available for your children up to age 26 whether they are a full - time student or not. You can elect coverage of $10,000. The amount you select is for each child you cover. The cost is based upon the family unit and not each child.
