Your Health and Wellbeing At Aspen Valley Hospital, we believe in the health and wellbeing of our employees and their families. This is one of the reasons why we provide a comprehensive benefits package, including full health and dental benefits, a robust employee wellness program (Evolve), flexible spending plans, a life insurance and disability program, and a generous time off bank. Our goal with these programs is to help our employees and their families better understand the health and wellness issues that can impact their lives, and to promote a healthy lifestyle throughout all stages of life. This is not only good for you and your family, but also important for the organization to maintain a healthy workforce. Aspen Valley Hospital strives to provide its employees with a variety of options despite the rising cost of health care and employee benefits. We encourage you to evaluate and elect the benefits that best fit your personal needs.

Eligibility Eligible employees include full-time employees regularly scheduled to work 32 or more hours per week, half-time employees regularly scheduled to work 24 to 31 hours per week, and all other qualified employees determine by Human Resources. Aspen Valley Hospital will be tracking your hours to determine whether you are eligible for coverage. You will be notified by Human Resources if your health plan eligibility changes.

Eligible Dependents Many of the benefit plans also offer coverage for eligible dependents. Eligible dependents include the following:

Your legal spouse, common-law spouse, civil union partner, or same-sex or opposite sex domestic partner. A marriage certificate, license, or completed affidavit is required to add a dependent to the benefit plans.

Your children to age 26 (including stepchildren, children of domestic partners, legally-adopted children, and children placed with you for adoption), regardless of marital, student, or tax-dependent status (medical, dental, vision, and health care FSA coverage only). This varies for other benefits—please see Human Resources for more information.

Your dependent children over age 26 who are physically or mentally unable to care for themselves.

Qualifying Event You will not be able to enroll or make changes during the year unless you experience a qualifying life event. A qualifying life event can include, but is not limited to:

Marriage, legal separation, or divorce

Birth or adoption of a child

Change in employment status for you or your spouse

Change in a dependent’s benefits eligibility status (e.g., a dependent child exceeding the maximum age for coverage)

A significant change in the cost or coverage of your spouse’s benefits

Change in place of residence causing a loss of eligibility (i.e., moving outside of the service area)

Loss of a dependent (death)

To change your benefits, notify the Human Resources Department within 31 days of the qualifying event. You will need to provide proof of the change, such as a marriage certificate or record of birth.

Individual Mandate Reminder You and your family members are required to have health insurance or pay a penalty to the government. If you don’t have coverage in 2016, you’ll have to pay a penalty of $695 per adult and $347.50 per child, or 2.5% of your income (whichever is higher). The fee increases every year. Some people may qualify for an exemption to this fee. The medical plans offered by Aspen Valley Hospital meet all of the health reform law requirements to satisfy the individual mandate. Additionally, Aspen Valley Hospital pays a substantial amount toward the cost of coverage.

Aspen Valley Hospital Health Plan Aspen Valley Hospital offers you and your eligible dependents two comprehensive medical plans from which you can choose. The plans are administered by Allegiance. You receive the maximum benefit under the plans, and pay a smaller amount out of your pocket, when you seek medical treatment from a network provider. The table below summarizes the key feature of the medical plans. The coinsurance amounts listed reflect the amount you pay. Please refer to the official plan documents for additional information on coverage and exclusions.

Please note: Valley View Hospital is considered an out-of-network provider under our plans if services are available at Aspen Valley Hospital.

Employee Discount on Hospital Services: Employees may be eligible to receive a 50% discount on services provided by Aspen Valley Hospital and associated clinics—Basalt After-Hours Care, Snowmass Clinic, and AVH Physical Therapy locations in Aspen & Snowmass. Please see policy for complete details.

*Mandatory Generic Prescription Drug Program: A penalty will apply if a member requests a brand medication when there is a generic equivalent available. The penalty will be the Brand Name copayment plus the difference between the actual cost of the brand and generic medication. There will be no penalty if the doctor specifically recommends the brand choice when a generic equivalent is available. In these situations, the prescribing doctor will need to write “dispense as written” or “DAW” on the prescription.

Flexible Spending Accounts Health Care FSA The health care FSA allows you to set aside money from your paycheck before income taxes are withheld to pay for eligible expenses such as deductibles, copayments, and other health-related expenses that are not reimbursed by insurance. Allegiance, the FSA administrator, will issue you a debit card, which you can use at the point of service. Additionally, you can submit claims for reimbursement by completing a claim form and submitting it along with an explanation of benefits (EOB) or an itemized receipt from the provider. Remember, over-the-counter (OTC) medications are not eligible for reimbursement without a prescription. The health care FSA maximum contribution is $2,550 for the 2016 plan year. Health Care FSA Rollover For health care FSA, at the end of the plan year you can now roll over $500 to use during the next calendar year. Any account balance in excess of $500, or any amount not used within the next year, will be forfeited. Dependent Care FSA The dependent care FSA allows you to set aside money from your paycheck on a pre-tax basis for day care expenses to allow you and your spouse to work or attend school full time. Eligible dependents are children under 13, a spouse, elderly parent, or a child over 13 residing in your home who is physically or mentally unable to care for himself or herself. There is no rollover for the dependent care FSA. Below are examples of eligible expenses:

Day care facility fees

Before- and after-school care

In-home babysitting fees (income must be reported by your care provider) You may contribute up to $5,000 to the dependent care FSA for 2016 if you are married and file a joint return, or if you file a single or head of household return. If you are married and file separate returns, you can each elect $2,500 for the 2016 plan year. You and your spouse must be employed, or your spouse must be a full-time student to be eligible to participate in the dependent care FSA.

How to submit claims: Submit your claim online at www.askallegiance.com/avh by clicking on Benefits, then Flexible Spending Account.

Important: You must re-enroll in the FSA each year if you wish to participate!
