Add to Your Health, Add to Your Savings . . . . . .Attention Indemnity PPO Medical Plan Participants - this Local and the Fund Office have been receiving calls from members asking, “How can I get more money into my Health Reimbursement Account?” Did you have to reach into your pocket to cover pharmacy co pays and up-front medical expenses last year? There’s a way to get an EXTRA contribution of up to $250 in your Health Reimbursement Account (HRA). All you need to do is to complete a confidential and easy Health Risk Questionnaire (HRQ) between February 1 and May 1. It’s that simple… take 15 minutes to answer the HRQ – online or on paper – and receive the extra contribution in your HRA. And if you completed the HRQ last year, you are eligible for ANOTHER contribution if you complete the HRQ this year. Remember, the contributions in your HRA are used to help pay your medical PPO deductibles, coinsurance (the percentage of covered expenses that would otherwise come out of your own pocket), and even your prescription drug copays. If you don’t use all of your HRA contributions in one year, you can use them to pay eligible health care expenses in the future--as long as you stay in the Indemnity PPO Medical Plan. Go online and do the HRQ now at http://www.2010HRQ.com. Have questions or need help? Call 1-888-901-0477. This special benefit is available only to Indemnity PPO Medical Plan participants and their spouses/domestic partners.
