The benefit information provided herein is a brief summary, not a comprehensive description of benefits. For more information contact the plan. Drugs and prices may vary between pharmacies and are subject to change during the plan year. UnitedHealthcare® Medicare Advantage plans are insured through UnitedHealthcare Insurance Company and its affiliated companies, a Medicare Advantage organization with a Medicare contract.

  34. FAQsFrequently Asked Questions & Answers QUESTION #1 • I (or my spouse) is not yet 65, but will be turning 65 later this year. How do we get enrolled in the Medicare Advantage (MA) PPO plan? ANSWER • Approximately 3 months prior to your 65th birthday, you will receive a kit from your current vendor and a letter from SHBP explaining the process. • A few important notes: • You must send SHBP a copy of your Medicare Part B card or a copy of the letter from Social Security approving your Medicare as soon as you receive it. • Once we have a copy of your Medicare Part B card, you will automatically be enrolled in the Standard plan option with your current carrier (unless you choose otherwise), effective the first day of your birthday month. • If you do not provide a copy of your Medicare card, you will remain in the Standard option of your current plan and health care vendor. However, you will be charged 100% of the premium. • A current mailing address is a must! All communications are mailed to the last known address. MA PPO enrollment requires a street address.

  35. FAQsFrequently Asked Questions & Answers QUESTION #2 • Can we (my spouse and I) pick different plan options or do we both have to elect the same plan option? ANSWER • No. • Spouses and/or dependents must follow the election of the retiree. You cannot mix and match unless… • You and your spouse are BOTH retirees of the State and each have your own single coverage, or • You are a “split-age” family (meaning one is under 65, the other is over 65 and enrolled in one of the MA PPO options).

  36. FAQsFrequently Asked Questions & Answers QUESTION #4 • What if my doctor is not in the network? How much will I pay? ANSWER • As long as your provider accepts Medicare, you may continue to see this provider as an out-of-network provider in 2013. • Your cost is the same as if the doctor was contracted and in-network. • Please be sure your provider understands that you have a PPO plan with out-of-network coverage.

  37. FAQsFrequently Asked Questions & Answers QUESTION #5 • I have an RX plan under my spouse’s coverage. Do I need to cancel that? ANSWER • As long as your spouse’s plan is not considered a MA or Part D plan, you can maintain both. • However, if your other coverage is a MA or Part D plan, once enrolled in the SHBP MA PPO plan, you will automatically be dis-enrolled from the other MA or Part D Plan as MA plans can not have coverage under two MA or Part D plans. • Since the MA PPO plan includes full-prescription drug coverage, you don’t need two separate plans.
