Options for Medicare Members During Option Period, you can: ♦♦Change health and/or dental plans ♦♦Drop benefits or dependents ♦♦Decrease the amount of life insurance coverage ♦♦Drop or change vision plans ♦♦Enroll in a vision plan if you have not dropped that coverage within the past 12 months Eligibility Requirements To participate in the Medicare supplement plans described in this Guide, you must be: ��♦Entitled to benefits under Medicare Part A and enrolled in Medicare Part B. ♦♦Enrolled in only one Part D plan. If you have Part D coverage through another plan and want to continue that coverage, you must select the HealthChoice High or Low Option Medicare Supplement Plan Without Part D. Enrolling in another Medicare supplement plan with Part D will end your current Part D coverage. To participate in the MA-PD Plans described in this Guide: ♦♦You must be a permanent resident of the MA-PD plan’s service area. This service area is a federally qualified area in which the MA-PD provides services. Check the MA-PD Plan Service Areas on page 43 to make sure you reside in the MA-PD plan's service area. Not all ZIP Codes in every county fall within the MA-PD Plan’s Service Area. If you are unsure, check with each MA-PD plan to verify your address is in its service area. ♦♦You must be enrolled in both Medicare Part A and Part B, and continue to pay your monthly Medicare Part B premium. If you are already enrolled in a Medicare Managed Care Plan and have only Medicare Part B, you can stay with your current plan. ♦♦You are not eligible to enroll in an MA-PD plan if you have been diagnosed with End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD). If you are currently enrolled in an MA-PD plan and develop ESRD or undergo a transplant, you can remain with your plan. Please contact each MA-PD plan directly for further information. See Help Lines on page 52. Enrollment in Medicare Part B All Medicare eligible individuals, except current employees, must be enrolled in a Medicare plan through OSEEGIB. To maximize benefits, you need to be enrolled in Medicare Part B. HealthChoice Medicare plans do not require you to be enrolled in Part B, but pay benefits as if you are. The other Medicare supplement plans offered through OSEEGIB require you to be enrolled in Medicare Part B, and the MA-PD plans offered through OSEEGIB require you to have both Medicare Part A and Part B.5 2012 Plan Year Your Current Coverage Your current coverage is listed in the upper right-hand corner of your personalized Option Period Enrollment/Change Form. Your form is being mailed in a separate security envelope. If you want to, you can switch to a different plan. If you do not return your enrollment/change form by December 7, you will automatically be enrolled in the same coverage you currently have. Service Areas ♦♦The Medicare supplement plans offered through OSEEGIB provide coverage throughout the United States. If you move out of the United States, you must notify your plan so that you can be disenrolled and find a new plan in your area. ♦♦The ZIP Code service areas of the MA-PD plans are federally qualified areas in which the MA-PD plans provide services. You must be a permanent resident of the MA-PD plan’s service area. Check the MA-PD Plan Service Areas on page 43 to make sure you reside in the MA-PD plan's service area. Not all ZIP Codes in every county fall within the MA-PD plan’s service area. Creditable Coverage Notice Prescription drug coverage is called creditable when the plan’s prescription drug coverage pays, on average, at least as much as Medicare’s standard prescription drug coverage. The Medicare supplement plans and MA-PD plans offered through OSEEGIB provide coverage that is equal to, or better than, the standard benefits of Medicare’s prescription drug plan. All plans meet or exceed the standards set by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. Medicare Premiums and Deductibles As of the print date of this Guide, the amounts for Medicare premiums and deductibles for 2012 were not available. Use this Guide together with your 2012 Medicare & You handbook for more information and exact amounts. Part D Income-Related Premium Adjustment If you are a member of one of the Medicare supplement or MA-PD plans offered through OSEEGIB, your premium for Part D prescription drug coverage is included in your regular monthly premium. However, if your income is above a certain level, you must pay an additional premium for your Part D coverage. If you have to pay an extra amount, the Social Security Administration will send you a letter telling you what the extra amount will be. For more information, call Social Security toll-free at 1-800-772-1213, Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., Central time. TTY users call toll-free 1-800-325-0778.6 2012 Plan Year Medicare's Limiting Charge Under Medicare guidelines, the highest amount you can be charged for a covered service is called the limiting charge. This applies when you receive services from doctors and other health care service suppliers who don’t accept Medicare assignment. The limiting charge is 15% over Medicare’s approved amount. It applies only to certain services and not to supplies or equipment. Charges for Services Not Covered by Medicare Any charges for services or supplies which are not covered by Medicare or covered under your plan are your financial responsibility. Extra Help Paying for Part D ― Medicare Low-Income Subsidy Information People with limited incomes may get extra help to pay for prescription drug costs. This extra help is known as the low-income subsidy or LIS. Medicare could pay up to 75% or more of your drug costs including monthly prescription drug premiums, annual pharmacy deductibles, and prescription copays. Those who qualify are not subject to the Coverage Gap or the late enrollment penalty. To learn more or to apply, call Social Security toll-free at 1-800-772-1213, Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., Central time. TTY users call toll-free 1-800-325-0778. More information is also available on their website at www.socialsecurity.gov. Extra Help ― If You Are Already Qualified If you already get help paying for your prescription drugs, some of the information in this Guide about premiums and Part D drug costs is not correct for you. The amounts of your monthly premiums and pharmacy costs will be less. Your plan may request a copy of your letter from Social Security confirming you are qualified. Once you enroll in a Part D plan, Medicare or your plan will tell us the amount of assistance you will receive. We will then send you information about the amount you will pay. Confirming Coverage ♦♦Plan changes made during Option Period will be reflected on the Confirmation Statement you will receive from OSEEGIB. ♦♦Review your Confirmation Statement to make sure your coverage is correct. Contact OSEEGIB Member Services right away if your Confirmation Statement is incorrect, so corrections can be made as soon as possible. ♦♦If you do not make any changes, you will not receive a Confirmation Statement. Keep your personalized Option Period Enrollment/Change Form as proof of your coverage.COBRA Coverage A dependent who becomes ineligible for coverage may be able to continue health, dental, and/or vision coverage under the federal COBRA law. Examples of qualifying events that allow dependents to continue coverage under COBRA include: ♦♦A child reaching age 26 ♦♦Your death ♦♦Divorce of a spouse It is the policy of OSEEGIB that one person must always pay the primary member premium. When a spouse, child, or children are insured under a particular benefit, but the member did not keep that coverage, one person is always billed the primary member rate. Finding a Provider To find a dental or vision provider or to check the network status of a provider, visit each plan’s website or call its customer service number for assistance. See Help Lines on pages 52 and 53. Address Information Medicare requires that you report changes in your home address to your plan. If You Are Already Enrolled in a Plan With Part D Prescription Drug Coverage Your Medicare Part D plan through OSEEGIB provides Part D prescription drug coverage. If you enroll in a Medicare Part D plan outside of OSEEGIB, Medicare must disenroll you from your current Part D plan. If this occurs, OSEEGIB must change your coverage to the HealthChoice Medicare Supplement Plan Without Part D. Your coverage will be similar and include prescription drug coverage, but not Part D benefits. You must continue on the plan without Part D benefits until the next Option Period and pay the higher premium for that plan, or since you have other Part D (prescription) coverage, you can drop your health and prescription coverage through OSEEGIB, or drop your Part D coverage, whichever you decide. If you drop your coverage through OSEEGIB, you cannot regain coverage through OSEEGIB in the future, and you will lose any premium contribution made by your retirement system. If You Currently Have Health Coverage Through Your Employer or Union If you or your spouse have health coverage through an employer or union, joining one of the plans offered by OSEEGIB may change your current coverage. Please read the information sent to you by your employer or union. If you have questions, see your benefits administrator. If you leave your plan and do not get other Medicare Part D coverage or other coverage that is as good as Medicare’s (Creditable Coverage), in the future, you may have to pay Medicare’s late enrollment penalty in addition to your premium for Part D prescription drug coverage. 7 2012 Plan YearThis Page Intentionally Blank 8 2012 Plan Year9 2012 Plan Year Any charges for services or supplies that are not Medicare covered services or supplies or covered under the Plans are your responsibility. Section II HealthChoice Medicare Supplement Plans 10 2012 Plan Year 2012 Annual Notice of Change Please read this HealthChoice Annual Notice of Change. Each year, Medicare prescription drug plans may change premiums, cost-sharing amounts, and benefits. These changes may include increasing premiums, increasing or decreasing cost-sharing amounts, and adding or subtracting benefits. This notice provides a summary of how HealthChoice benefits and costs will change and what you will pay for services beginning January 1, 2012. Federal Contracting Statement for Medicare Part D The Oklahoma State and Education Employees Group Insurance Board (OSEEGIB), a division of the Office of State Finance, contracts with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), a division of the federal government, to provide Part D coverage. The HealthChoice Employer PDP Medicare Supplement Plans With Part D are Medicare approved Part D plans. OSEEGIB is a Medicare approved Part D sponsor and its contract with CMS is renewed annually and is not guaranteed beyond the 2012 contract year. OSEEGIB has the right to refuse to renew its contract with CMS or CMS may refuse to renew its contract with OSEEGIB. Termination or non-renewal of the contract will result in the termination of your enrollment in a HealthChoice Medicare Supplement Plan With Part D. HealthChoice Employer PDP Medicare Supplement Plans With Part D The Plans with Part D benefits include Medicare Part D prescription drug coverage. HealthChoice Medicare Supplement Plans Without Part D The Plans without Part D include pharmacy benefits, but they are not Medicare Part D plans. These plans are specifically designed for members who: ♦♦Already have Medicare Part D coverage through another plan or employer. ♦♦Receive a subsidy for prescription drug benefits from their or their spouse’s employer. ♦♦Receive Veterans Administration health benefits for prescription drugs. Note: Premiums for the plans without Part D are higher because HealthChoice does not receive a subsidy from Medicare for members enrolled in these plans. Enrolling in a HealthChoice Employer PDP Medicare Supplement Plan With Part D If you are enrolling in or changing your coverage to a HealthChoice Employer PDP Medicare Supplement Plan With Part D, you must complete and return the Application for HealthChoice 11 2012 Plan Year Employer PDP Medicare Supplement With Part D to OSEEGIB along with your Option Period Enrollment/Change Form.

Enrollment Periods There are three time periods when you can enroll in or disenroll from the HealthChoice Medicare Supplement Plans. ♦♦Initial Enrollment Period – This is the time period when you first become eligible for enrollment in a Medicare Part D plan. ♦♦The Annual Coordinated Election Period – This year, the HealthChoice annual Option Period (Annual Coordinated Election Period) runs through December 7, 2011. All enrollments and plan changes must be completed by December 7. Once the annual Option Period ends, plan changes cannot be made until the next annual Option Period. ♦♦Special Enrollment Periods – Special Enrollment Periods are allowed under certain situations.

Examples include: • You move outside the United States. • CMS or HealthChoice terminates the Plans’ participation in the Part D Program. • You lose Creditable Coverage for reasons other than failure to pay premiums. • You meet other exception rules as set out by CMS. • For more information on Special Enrollment Periods, contact HealthChoice Member Services.

This drug list shows the drugs covered by the Plans. Medicare has reviewed and approved this list of covered drugs. To find out how your medications are covered, please contact Medco toll-free at 1-800-758-3605 or toll-free HealthChoice Pharmacy Benefit Information2012 Plan Year 14 TTY 1-800-871-7138, or go to the HealthChoice website at www.sib.ok.gov or www.healthchoiceok.com. Be aware there are a number of changes to the formulary. In general, HealthChoice has not changed its drug tiers or copay structure; however, we have added some new drugs to the list and removed others. We have added some drugs that have recently become available, and we have replaced some expensive brand-name drugs with less costly generic alternatives. HealthChoice has also added some restrictions to certain drugs and reduced the restrictions on others. Some examples of restrictions include the requirement to first get Plan approval before filling a medication, a limit on the quantity of medication you can receive, and the need to try a different drug first to see how well it works for you. Both brand-name and generic drugs are covered and are sorted into five tiers: ♦♦Tier 1 – Generics ♦♦Tier 2 – Preferred Brand ♦♦Tier 3 – Non-Preferred Brand ♦♦Tier 4 – Very high cost and unique drugs ♦♦Tier 5 – Tobacco cessation medications The drugs in Tiers 1, 2, and 4 offer the lowest or Preferred copay, Tier 3 drugs have the highest copay, and Tier 5 drugs (tobacco cessation products) have a $0 copay. Drugs not listed in the formulary are not covered. If HealthChoice makes a formulary change that alters your drug’s tier level or increases its cost, we will notify you 60 days before the change so you can review your options. When Changes Affect a Drug You Currently Take If you are currently taking a drug that is not listed in the HealthChoice Comprehensive Medicare Formulary or coverage for your drug has changed; e.g., it has moved to a higher cost-sharing tier, or it has new restrictions, you have a couple of options: ♦♦In some situations, HealthChoice will cover a one-time, temporary supply of your drug when your current supply runs out. This temporary supply is for a maximum of 30 days. ♦♦You and your doctor can find a covered drug that treats your medical condition. ♦♦Your doctor can ask for an exception/prior authorization for your current medication. Pharmacy Prior Authorization Prior authorization medications are medications that may be covered under the Plan if the prescribed use meets approved guidelines. Prior authorization requests must be submitted by 2012 Plan Year 15 your physician. Please note, HealthChoice may have added or removed certain medications from the list of drugs that require prior authorization. Quantities of Medications Pharmacy benefits generally cover up to a 34-day supply or 100 units, whichever is greater, not to exceed the FDA approved ‘usual’ dosage for a 100-day supply. Specific therapeutic categories, medications, and/or dosage forms may have more restrictive quantity and/or duration of therapy limitations. Some medications have a maximum quantity limitation and/or the medication is not dispensed in a tablet or capsule form. Be aware that quantity limitations may have been added to or removed from some medications for 2012. Also, be aware that under certain circumstances, HealthChoice will make an exception to quantity limitations. Transition Supply of Medication (Applies Only to Plans With Part D) During transition to a HealthChoice Part D plan or transition to a formulary medication, you can be authorized to purchase a one-time supply of a non-covered medication. This transition supply, not to exceed a 34-day supply, is available to help you make a successful transition to a HealthChoice Medicare Formulary medication. This temporary supply will be provided, when necessary, prior to initiating or completing the coverage review process for a medication requiring prior authorization. Please note that under certain circumstances, this 34-day supply may be extended. For information on how to obtain a covered transition supply of medication, have your pharmacy contact Medco. See Help Lines on page 52. Network Pharmacy Access The HealthChoice Pharmacy Network includes more than 900 pharmacies across Oklahoma and nearly 60,000 pharmacies nationwide. They are called Network Pharmacies because they contract with our Plans to provide covered prescription drugs to members. In most cases, your prescriptions are covered only if they are filled at a Network Pharmacy. Network Pharmacies provide electronic claims processing, so generally, there are no paper claims to file. Sometimes a pharmacy leaves the Network. When this occurs, you will have to get your prescriptions filled at another Network Pharmacy. To locate a HealthChoice Network Pharmacy near you, go to the HealthChoice website at www.sib.ok.gov or www.healthchoiceok.com. Click Find a Provider in the top menu bar and then select HealthChoice Network Pharmacies. You can also contact Medco, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, at the following numbers: ♦♦Members with Part D call toll-free 1-800-590-6828 ♦♦TDD users call toll-free 1-800-716-3231 ♦♦Members without Part D call toll-free 1-800-903-8113 ♦♦TDD users call toll-free 1-800-825-12302012 Plan Year 16 Non-Network Pharmacy Benefits Although HealthChoice may cover your prescriptions if they are purchased at a non-Network pharmacy, a reduced, non-Network benefit may apply. An exception may be made in the event of an emergency. It is considered an emergency when you: ♦♦Travel outside your plan’s service area and run out of medication, or become ill and need a covered medication and are unable to access a Network Pharmacy ♦♦Cannot timely get a covered medication within your Plan’s pharmacy network ♦♦Fill a prescription for a covered medication that is not regularly stocked at a Network Pharmacy ♦♦Receive a covered medication that is dispensed by a non-Network outpatient facility, such as an emergency room, clinic, or surgery center If you must use a non-Network pharmacy, you will have to pay the full cost for your prescription and then ask HealthChoice to repay you for its share of the cost. See the Claim Procedures for Health and Pharmacy Services section. Before you fill a prescription under these circumstances, when possible, check to see if there is a Network Pharmacy in your area by visiting the HealthChoice website at www.sib.ok.gov or www.healthchoiceok.com.

Section IV Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug (MA-PD) Plans 33 2012 Plan Year Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug (MA-PD) Plans An MA-PD plan offers a combination of health and prescription drug benefits within a specified service area. Plan Premiums The monthly premiums in the chart below are per person: CommunityCare Senior Health Plan $230.00 per enrolled person Generations Healthcare $191.95 per enrolled person UnitedHealthcare Group Medicare Advantage $243.65 per enrolled person MA-PD Plan Changes CommunityCare Senior Health Plan ♦♦No benefit changes CommunityCare Senior Health Plan Alternate is not available in 2012. ♦♦If you are currently enrolled in this plan, you must select another health plan. Generations Healthcare ♦♦No benefit changes UnitedHealthcare Group Medicare Advantage (formerly Secure Horizons) ♦♦No benefit changes Eligibility in an MA-PD Plan This option is available to eligible retired, vested, and non-vested former employees, your survivors, your covered dependents, and COBRA participants. You must be currently enrolled in Medicare and participating in the health insurance coverage offered through OSEEGIB. The following additional requirements also apply: ♦♦You must be a permanent resident of the MA-PD plan’s service area. ♦♦You must be enrolled in both Medicare Part A (Hospital) and Part B (Medical) and continue to pay your monthly Medicare Part B premium. If you are already enrolled in a Medicare Managed Care Plan and have only Medicare Part B, you can stay with your current plan. 2012 Plan Year 34If you have been diagnosed with End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD), you are not eligible to enroll in an MA-PD plan. If you are currently enrolled in an MA-PD plan and develop ESRD or undergo a transplant, you can remain with your plan. Please contact the MA-PD plan of your choice for further information. Service Area You must reside in the MA-PD plan’s service area. This is a federally qualified area where the MA-PD provides coverage. Check the MA-PD Plan Service Areas in this section to make sure your county is in the MA-PD plan’s service area. Note: Not all ZIP Codes in every county fall within the MA-PD plan’s service area. If you are unsure, check with each MA-PD plan to verify your address is in its service area. Plan Guidelines ♦♦While the MA-PD plans market to the general public throughout the year, the options available to you are a result of your status as a former state, education, or local government employee or dependent. If you enroll in another MA-PD plan, such as one offered to the general public, you may lose your benefits through OSEEGIB as well as any retirement system contribution toward your insurance coverage. ♦♦When you enroll with an MA-PD plan, that plan becomes your Medicare benefits administrator. Your MA-PD plan replaces Medicare and administers all your health care benefits. ♦♦If you permanently move out of your plan’s service area or are absent from the service area for more than six consecutive months, you must disenroll from your MA-PD plan and select another plan that provides coverage in your new area. Primary Care Physician (PCP) ♦♦When you join an MA-PD plan, you agree that the Primary Care Physician (PCP) you select will coordinate all your medical services. There are exceptions in cases of out-of-network emergency or urgent care. ♦♦If you do not use your PCP for routine care, you will be financially responsible for any charges related to those services. ♦♦You may change doctors for any reason as long as the physician you select participates in your MA-PD plan’s provider network. To change your PCP, please contact the MA-PD plan’s customer service. See Help Lines on page 52. If your provider leaves your plan, you must select another provider within your plan’s network. You cannot change plans until the next annual Option Period. 35 2012 Plan YearEnrolling in an MA-PD Plan ♦♦If you are interested in enrolling in one of the MA-PD plans, contact the plan directly. Be sure to indicate that you are with the State of Oklahoma account and an enrollment packet will be mailed to you. Follow the instructions enclosed in your packet and return your completed enrollment form directly to the MA-PD plan. ♦♦You must also indicate your MA-PD plan selection on your Option Period Enrollment/Change Form and return it to OSEEGIB. If you are currently enrolled in an MA-PD plan and want to continue your coverage for the 2012 plan year, you do not have to return your form unless you want to make changes to other coverages or enroll in vision coverage. Please keep your personalized Option Period Enrollment/Change Form as proof of your coverage. Confirming Enrollment You will receive a letter from your MA-PD plan confirming your enrollment and effective date. Just before your effective date, you will receive your plan ID card and member handbook. When a Covered Family Member is Not Yet Eligible for Medicare All covered family members must enroll in the same plan. For example, if you are enrolled in the CommunityCare MA-PD plan, your pre-Medicare spouse or dependents must enroll in one of the CommunityCare HMO options. As the primary member, you must indicate that you have elected an MA-PD plan option and complete all the required information regarding your dependents on your Option Period Enrollment/Change Form. Disenrolling or Transferring Plans ♦♦If you are changing from one MA-PD plan to another, your new plan coverage will begin on January 1, 2012, and you will automatically be disenrolled from your previous plan. ♦♦If you are changing from an MA-PD plan to a Medicare supplement plan, Medicare requires that you write to your former MA-PD plan to advise them of your disenrollment. You will receive a letter from your former plan advising you of the date your coverage ends. You must also complete and submit your Option Period Enrollment/Change Form to OSEEGIB indicating your change in plans. ♦♦Failure to notify your current MA-PD plan of your disenrollment can result in additional expenses that will not be reimbursed by Medicare or your new plan. ♦♦Failure to notify your plan and OSEEGIB in a timely manner can result in delayed or denied enrollment in your new plan and create problems receiving services. 36 2012 Plan YearCreditable Coverage Notice The Medicare Advantage Plans offered through OSEEGIB qualify as Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug (MA-PD) Plans. All MA-PD plans available through OSEEGIB offer Creditable Coverage. This means that if you elect a different Medicare plan the next year, you will not have a penalty. Limiting Charge If you go out of your plans provider network, under Medicare guidelines, the highest amount you can be charged for a covered service by doctors and other health care suppliers who don’t accept assignment is known as the limiting charge. The limiting charge is 15% over Medicare’s approved amount. The limiting charge only applies to certain services and not to supplies or equipment. Enrollment Periods There are three time periods when you can enroll in or disenroll from an MA-PD plan. ♦ The Initial Enrollment Period – The Initial Enrollment Period refers to the time period when you first become eligible for enrollment. This seven-month period begins three months prior to your month of eligibility and extends three months beyond your month of eligibility. Your coverage is effective the first of the month in which you become Medicare eligible, or the first of the month following your election, whichever is later. ♦ The Annual Coordinated Election Period – This year, the annual Option Period (Annual Coordinated Election Period) runs through December 7. Once the annual Option Period ends, no plan changes can be made until the next annual Option Period. ♦ Special Enrollment Periods – Special Enrollment Periods may be allowed under certain situations. Your coverage is effective following the processing of your paperwork. Extra Help Paying For Part D (Medicare Low Income Subsidy Information) People with limited incomes may get extra help to pay for prescription drug costs. This extra help is known as the low-income subsidy or LIS. Medicare could pay up to 75% or more of your drug costs including monthly prescription drug premiums, annual pharmacy deductibles, and prescription copays. Those who qualify are not subject to the Coverage Gap or the late enrollment penalty.

If you plan to attend one of these meetings, please bring this Guide with you. Enrollment Information ♦ Your Option Period Enrollment/Change Form is being mailed in a separate security envelope. When you receive your form, review your personalized information in the upper right-hand corner. This section lists the coverage you will have January 1, through December 31, 2012, if you do not make changes to your coverage this Option Period. If you DO NOT WANT to make changes: ♦ No further action is necessary. You do NOT need to return your Option Period Enrollment/Change Form. OSEEGIB will automatically carry your 2011 coverage over to 2012. ♦ You will not receive a Confirmation Statement from OSEEGIB. Keep your Option Period Enrollment/Change Form as proof of your insurance coverage. ♦ If you live in a long-term care facility, such as a skilled nurse facility or nursing home, do not allow your facility to enroll you in another Medicare Part D plan. Enrollment in another Part D plan will end your Part D coverage through OSEEGIB and cause your premiums to increase. If you WANT TO make changes, your enrollment form is due by December 7. ♦ The following resources are also available to help you decide on your coverage: • Online Provider Directories • Plan Formularies • Plan Websites • Customer Service Representatives ♦ Review the premium rates and plan changes for 2012. ♦ Enroll in only one Part D plan. ♦ Check the appropriate boxes on your Option Period Enrollment/Change Form to make changes. ♦♦If you decide to enroll in or change to a different Medicare supplement plan with Part D or a Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug (MA-PD) plan, you must complete and return a separate enrollment application to the plan you select, as well as return your Option Period Enrollment/Change Form to OSEEGIB. To obtain an enrollment application for the HealthChoice High or Low Option Plan with Part D or UnitedHealthcare Senior Supplement, contact OSEEGIB. To obtain an enrollment application for an MA-PD plan, contact that plan directly.

Options for Medicare Members During Option Period, you can: ♦♦Change health and/or dental plans ♦♦Drop benefits or dependents ♦♦Decrease the amount of life insurance coverage ♦♦Drop or change vision plans ♦♦Enroll in a vision plan if you have not dropped that coverage within the past 12 months Eligibility Requirements To participate in the Medicare supplement plans described in this Guide, you must be: ��♦Entitled to benefits under Medicare Part A and enrolled in Medicare Part B. ♦♦Enrolled in only one Part D plan. If you have Part D coverage through another plan and want to continue that coverage, you must select the HealthChoice High or Low Option Medicare Supplement Plan Without Part D. Enrolling in another Medicare supplement plan with Part D will end your current Part D coverage. To participate in the MA-PD Plans described in this Guide: ♦♦You must be a permanent resident of the MA-PD plan’s service area. This service area is a federally qualified area in which the MA-PD provides services. Check the MA-PD Plan Service Areas on page 43 to make sure you reside in the MA-PD plan's service area. Not all ZIP Codes in every county fall within the MA-PD Plan’s Service Area. If you are unsure, check with each MA-PD plan to verify your address is in its service area. ♦♦You must be enrolled in both Medicare Part A and Part B, and continue to pay your monthly Medicare Part B premium. If you are already enrolled in a Medicare Managed Care Plan and have only Medicare Part B, you can stay with your current plan. ♦♦You are not eligible to enroll in an MA-PD plan if you have been diagnosed with End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD). If you are currently enrolled in an MA-PD plan and develop ESRD or undergo a transplant, you can remain with your plan. Please contact each MA-PD plan directly for further information. See Help Lines on page 52. Enrollment in Medicare Part B All Medicare eligible individuals, except current employees, must be enrolled in a Medicare plan through OSEEGIB. To maximize benefits, you need to be enrolled in Medicare Part B. HealthChoice Medicare plans do not require you to be enrolled in Part B, but pay benefits as if you are. The other Medicare supplement plans offered through OSEEGIB require you to be enrolled in Medicare Part B, and the MA-PD plans offered through OSEEGIB require you to have both Medicare Part A and Part B.5 2012 Plan Year Your Current Coverage Your current coverage is listed in the upper right-hand corner of your personalized Option Period Enrollment/Change Form. Your form is being mailed in a separate security envelope. If you want to, you can switch to a different plan. If you do not return your enrollment/change form by December 7, you will automatically be enrolled in the same coverage you currently have. Service Areas ♦♦The Medicare supplement plans offered through OSEEGIB provide coverage throughout the United States. If you move out of the United States, you must notify your plan so that you can be disenrolled and find a new plan in your area. ♦♦The ZIP Code service areas of the MA-PD plans are federally qualified areas in which the MA-PD plans provide services. You must be a permanent resident of the MA-PD plan’s service area. Check the MA-PD Plan Service Areas on page 43 to make sure you reside in the MA-PD plan's service area. Not all ZIP Codes in every county fall within the MA-PD plan’s service area. Creditable Coverage Notice Prescription drug coverage is called creditable when the plan’s prescription drug coverage pays, on average, at least as much as Medicare’s standard prescription drug coverage. The Medicare supplement plans and MA-PD plans offered through OSEEGIB provide coverage that is equal to, or better than, the standard benefits of Medicare’s prescription drug plan. All plans meet or exceed the standards set by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. Medicare Premiums and Deductibles As of the print date of this Guide, the amounts for Medicare premiums and deductibles for 2012 were not available. Use this Guide together with your 2012 Medicare & You handbook for more information and exact amounts. Part D Income-Related Premium Adjustment If you are a member of one of the Medicare supplement or MA-PD plans offered through OSEEGIB, your premium for Part D prescription drug coverage is included in your regular monthly premium. However, if your income is above a certain level, you must pay an additional premium for your Part D coverage. If you have to pay an extra amount, the Social Security Administration will send you a letter telling you what the extra amount will be. For more information, call Social Security toll-free at 1-800-772-1213, Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., Central time. TTY users call toll-free 1-800-325-0778.6 2012 Plan Year Medicare's Limiting Charge Under Medicare guidelines, the highest amount you can be charged for a covered service is called the limiting charge. This applies when you receive services from doctors and other health care service suppliers who don’t accept Medicare assignment. The limiting charge is 15% over Medicare’s approved amount. It applies only to certain services and not to supplies or equipment. Charges for Services Not Covered by Medicare Any charges for services or supplies which are not covered by Medicare or covered under your plan are your financial responsibility. Extra Help Paying for Part D ― Medicare Low-Income Subsidy Information People with limited incomes may get extra help to pay for prescription drug costs. This extra help is known as the low-income subsidy or LIS. Medicare could pay up to 75% or more of your drug costs including monthly prescription drug premiums, annual pharmacy deductibles, and prescription copays. Those who qualify are not subject to the Coverage Gap or the late enrollment penalty. To learn more or to apply, call Social Security toll-free at 1-800-772-1213, Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., Central time. TTY users call toll-free 1-800-325-0778. More information is also available on their website at www.socialsecurity.gov. Extra Help ― If You Are Already Qualified If you already get help paying for your prescription drugs, some of the information in this Guide about premiums and Part D drug costs is not correct for you. The amounts of your monthly premiums and pharmacy costs will be less. Your plan may request a copy of your letter from Social Security confirming you are qualified. Once you enroll in a Part D plan, Medicare or your plan will tell us the amount of assistance you will receive. We will then send you information about the amount you will pay. Confirming Coverage ♦♦Plan changes made during Option Period will be reflected on the Confirmation Statement you will receive from OSEEGIB. ♦♦Review your Confirmation Statement to make sure your coverage is correct. Contact OSEEGIB Member Services right away if your Confirmation Statement is incorrect, so corrections can be made as soon as possible. ♦♦If you do not make any changes, you will not receive a Confirmation Statement. Keep your personalized Option Period Enrollment/Change Form as proof of your coverage.COBRA Coverage A dependent who becomes ineligible for coverage may be able to continue health, dental, and/or vision coverage under the federal COBRA law. Examples of qualifying events that allow dependents to continue coverage under COBRA include: ♦♦A child reaching age 26 ♦♦Your death ♦♦Divorce of a spouse It is the policy of OSEEGIB that one person must always pay the primary member premium. When a spouse, child, or children are insured under a particular benefit, but the member did not keep that coverage, one person is always billed the primary member rate. Finding a Provider To find a dental or vision provider or to check the network status of a provider, visit each plan’s website or call its customer service number for assistance. See Help Lines on pages 52 and 53. Address Information Medicare requires that you report changes in your home address to your plan. If You Are Already Enrolled in a Plan With Part D Prescription Drug Coverage Your Medicare Part D plan through OSEEGIB provides Part D prescription drug coverage. If you enroll in a Medicare Part D plan outside of OSEEGIB, Medicare must disenroll you from your current Part D plan. If this occurs, OSEEGIB must change your coverage to the HealthChoice Medicare Supplement Plan Without Part D. Your coverage will be similar and include prescription drug coverage, but not Part D benefits. You must continue on the plan without Part D benefits until the next Option Period and pay the higher premium for that plan, or since you have other Part D (prescription) coverage, you can drop your health and prescription coverage through OSEEGIB, or drop your Part D coverage, whichever you decide. If you drop your coverage through OSEEGIB, you cannot regain coverage through OSEEGIB in the future, and you will lose any premium contribution made by your retirement system. If You Currently Have Health Coverage Through Your Employer or Union If you or your spouse have health coverage through an employer or union, joining one of the plans offered by OSEEGIB may change your current coverage. Please read the information sent to you by your employer or union. If you have questions, see your benefits administrator. If you leave your plan and do not get other Medicare Part D coverage or other coverage that is as good as Medicare’s (Creditable Coverage), in the future, you may have to pay Medicare’s late enrollment penalty in addition to your premium for Part D prescription drug coverage. 7 2012 Plan YearThis Page Intentionally Blank 8 2012 Plan Year9 2012 Plan Year Any charges for services or supplies that are not Medicare covered services or supplies or covered under the Plans are your responsibility. Section II HealthChoice Medicare Supplement Plans 10 2012 Plan Year 2012 Annual Notice of Change Please read this HealthChoice Annual Notice of Change. Each year, Medicare prescription drug plans may change premiums, cost-sharing amounts, and benefits. These changes may include increasing premiums, increasing or decreasing cost-sharing amounts, and adding or subtracting benefits. This notice provides a summary of how HealthChoice benefits and costs will change and what you will pay for services beginning January 1, 2012. Federal Contracting Statement for Medicare Part D The Oklahoma State and Education Employees Group Insurance Board (OSEEGIB), a division of the Office of State Finance, contracts with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), a division of the federal government, to provide Part D coverage. The HealthChoice Employer PDP Medicare Supplement Plans With Part D are Medicare approved Part D plans. OSEEGIB is a Medicare approved Part D sponsor and its contract with CMS is renewed annually and is not guaranteed beyond the 2012 contract year. OSEEGIB has the right to refuse to renew its contract with CMS or CMS may refuse to renew its contract with OSEEGIB. Termination or non-renewal of the contract will result in the termination of your enrollment in a HealthChoice Medicare Supplement Plan With Part D. HealthChoice Employer PDP Medicare Supplement Plans With Part D The Plans with Part D benefits include Medicare Part D prescription drug coverage. HealthChoice Medicare Supplement Plans Without Part D The Plans without Part D include pharmacy benefits, but they are not Medicare Part D plans. These plans are specifically designed for members who: ♦♦Already have Medicare Part D coverage through another plan or employer. ♦♦Receive a subsidy for prescription drug benefits from their or their spouse’s employer. ♦♦Receive Veterans Administration health benefits for prescription drugs. Note: Premiums for the plans without Part D are higher because HealthChoice does not receive a subsidy from Medicare for members enrolled in these plans. Enrolling in a HealthChoice Employer PDP Medicare Supplement Plan With Part D If you are enrolling in or changing your coverage to a HealthChoice Employer PDP Medicare Supplement Plan With Part D, you must complete and return the Application for HealthChoice 11 2012 Plan Year Employer PDP Medicare Supplement With Part D to OSEEGIB along with your Option Period Enrollment/Change Form.

Be aware there are a number of changes to the formulary. In general, HealthChoice has not changed its drug tiers or copay structure; however, we have added some new drugs to the list and removed others. We have added some drugs that have recently become available, and we have replaced some expensive brand-name drugs with less costly generic alternatives. HealthChoice has also added some restrictions to certain drugs and reduced the restrictions on others. Some examples of restrictions include the requirement to first get Plan approval before filling a medication, a limit on the quantity of medication you can receive, and the need to try a different drug first to see how well it works for you. Both brand-name and generic drugs are covered and are sorted into five tiers: ♦♦Tier 1 – Generics ♦♦Tier 2 – Preferred Brand ♦♦Tier 3 – Non-Preferred Brand ♦♦Tier 4 – Very high cost and unique drugs ♦♦Tier 5 – Tobacco cessation medications The drugs in Tiers 1, 2, and 4 offer the lowest or Preferred copay, Tier 3 drugs have the highest copay, and Tier 5 drugs (tobacco cessation products) have a $0 copay. Drugs not listed in the formulary are not covered. If HealthChoice makes a formulary change that alters your drug’s tier level or increases its cost, we will notify you 60 days before the change so you can review your options. When Changes Affect a Drug You Currently Take If you are currently taking a drug that is not listed in the HealthChoice Comprehensive Medicare Formulary or coverage for your drug has changed; e.g., it has moved to a higher cost-sharing tier, or it has new restrictions, you have a couple of options: ♦♦In some situations, HealthChoice will cover a one-time, temporary supply of your drug when your current supply runs out. This temporary supply is for a maximum of 30 days. ♦♦You and your doctor can find a covered drug that treats your medical condition. ♦♦Your doctor can ask for an exception/prior authorization for your current medication. Pharmacy Prior Authorization Prior authorization medications are medications that may be covered under the Plan if the prescribed use meets approved guidelines. Prior authorization requests must be submitted by 2012 Plan Year 15 your physician. Please note, HealthChoice may have added or removed certain medications from the list of drugs that require prior authorization. Quantities of Medications Pharmacy benefits generally cover up to a 34-day supply or 100 units, whichever is greater, not to exceed the FDA approved ‘usual’ dosage for a 100-day supply. Specific therapeutic categories, medications, and/or dosage forms may have more restrictive quantity and/or duration of therapy limitations. Some medications have a maximum quantity limitation and/or the medication is not dispensed in a tablet or capsule form. Be aware that quantity limitations may have been added to or removed from some medications for 2012. Also, be aware that under certain circumstances, HealthChoice will make an exception to quantity limitations. Transition Supply of Medication (Applies Only to Plans With Part D) During transition to a HealthChoice Part D plan or transition to a formulary medication, you can be authorized to purchase a one-time supply of a non-covered medication. This transition supply, not to exceed a 34-day supply, is available to help you make a successful transition to a HealthChoice Medicare Formulary medication. This temporary supply will be provided, when necessary, prior to initiating or completing the coverage review process for a medication requiring prior authorization. Please note that under certain circumstances, this 34-day supply may be extended. For information on how to obtain a covered transition supply of medication, have your pharmacy contact Medco. See Help Lines on page 52. Network Pharmacy Access The HealthChoice Pharmacy Network includes more than 900 pharmacies across Oklahoma and nearly 60,000 pharmacies nationwide. They are called Network Pharmacies because they contract with our Plans to provide covered prescription drugs to members. In most cases, your prescriptions are covered only if they are filled at a Network Pharmacy. Network Pharmacies provide electronic claims processing, so generally, there are no paper claims to file. Sometimes a pharmacy leaves the Network. When this occurs, you will have to get your prescriptions filled at another Network Pharmacy. To locate a HealthChoice Network Pharmacy near you, go to the HealthChoice website at www.sib.ok.gov or www.healthchoiceok.com. Click Find a Provider in the top menu bar and then select HealthChoice Network Pharmacies. You can also contact Medco, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, at the following numbers: ♦♦Members with Part D call toll-free 1-800-590-6828 ♦♦TDD users call toll-free 1-800-716-3231 ♦♦Members without Part D call toll-free 1-800-903-8113 ♦♦TDD users call toll-free 1-800-825-12302012 Plan Year 16 Non-Network Pharmacy Benefits Although HealthChoice may cover your prescriptions if they are purchased at a non-Network pharmacy, a reduced, non-Network benefit may apply. An exception may be made in the event of an emergency. It is considered an emergency when you: ♦♦Travel outside your plan’s service area and run out of medication, or become ill and need a covered medication and are unable to access a Network Pharmacy ♦♦Cannot timely get a covered medication within your Plan’s pharmacy network ♦♦Fill a prescription for a covered medication that is not regularly stocked at a Network Pharmacy ♦♦Receive a covered medication that is dispensed by a non-Network outpatient facility, such as an emergency room, clinic, or surgery center If you must use a non-Network pharmacy, you will have to pay the full cost for your prescription and then ask HealthChoice to repay you for its share of the cost. See the Claim Procedures for Health and Pharmacy Services section. Before you fill a prescription under these circumstances, when possible, check to see if there is a Network Pharmacy in your area by visiting the HealthChoice website at www.sib.ok.gov or www.healthchoiceok.com.

Section IV Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug (MA-PD) Plans 33 2012 Plan Year Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug (MA-PD) Plans An MA-PD plan offers a combination of health and prescription drug benefits within a specified service area. Plan Premiums The monthly premiums in the chart below are per person: CommunityCare Senior Health Plan $230.00 per enrolled person Generations Healthcare $191.95 per enrolled person UnitedHealthcare Group Medicare Advantage $243.65 per enrolled person MA-PD Plan Changes CommunityCare Senior Health Plan ♦♦No benefit changes CommunityCare Senior Health Plan Alternate is not available in 2012. ♦♦If you are currently enrolled in this plan, you must select another health plan. Generations Healthcare ♦♦No benefit changes UnitedHealthcare Group Medicare Advantage (formerly Secure Horizons) ♦♦No benefit changes Eligibility in an MA-PD Plan This option is available to eligible retired, vested, and non-vested former employees, your survivors, your covered dependents, and COBRA participants. You must be currently enrolled in Medicare and participating in the health insurance coverage offered through OSEEGIB. The following additional requirements also apply: ♦♦You must be a permanent resident of the MA-PD plan’s service area. ♦♦You must be enrolled in both Medicare Part A (Hospital) and Part B (Medical) and continue to pay your monthly Medicare Part B premium. If you are already enrolled in a Medicare Managed Care Plan and have only Medicare Part B, you can stay with your current plan. 2012 Plan Year 34If you have been diagnosed with End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD), you are not eligible to enroll in an MA-PD plan. If you are currently enrolled in an MA-PD plan and develop ESRD or undergo a transplant, you can remain with your plan. Please contact the MA-PD plan of your choice for further information. Service Area You must reside in the MA-PD plan’s service area. This is a federally qualified area where the MA-PD provides coverage. Check the MA-PD Plan Service Areas in this section to make sure your county is in the MA-PD plan’s service area. Note: Not all ZIP Codes in every county fall within the MA-PD plan’s service area. If you are unsure, check with each MA-PD plan to verify your address is in its service area. Plan Guidelines ♦♦While the MA-PD plans market to the general public throughout the year, the options available to you are a result of your status as a former state, education, or local government employee or dependent. If you enroll in another MA-PD plan, such as one offered to the general public, you may lose your benefits through OSEEGIB as well as any retirement system contribution toward your insurance coverage. ♦♦When you enroll with an MA-PD plan, that plan becomes your Medicare benefits administrator. Your MA-PD plan replaces Medicare and administers all your health care benefits. ♦♦If you permanently move out of your plan’s service area or are absent from the service area for more than six consecutive months, you must disenroll from your MA-PD plan and select another plan that provides coverage in your new area. Primary Care Physician (PCP) ♦♦When you join an MA-PD plan, you agree that the Primary Care Physician (PCP) you select will coordinate all your medical services. There are exceptions in cases of out-of-network emergency or urgent care. ♦♦If you do not use your PCP for routine care, you will be financially responsible for any charges related to those services. ♦♦You may change doctors for any reason as long as the physician you select participates in your MA-PD plan’s provider network. To change your PCP, please contact the MA-PD plan’s customer service. See Help Lines on page 52. If your provider leaves your plan, you must select another provider within your plan’s network. You cannot change plans until the next annual Option Period. 35 2012 Plan YearEnrolling in an MA-PD Plan ♦♦If you are interested in enrolling in one of the MA-PD plans, contact the plan directly. Be sure to indicate that you are with the State of Oklahoma account and an enrollment packet will be mailed to you. Follow the instructions enclosed in your packet and return your completed enrollment form directly to the MA-PD plan. ♦♦You must also indicate your MA-PD plan selection on your Option Period Enrollment/Change Form and return it to OSEEGIB. If you are currently enrolled in an MA-PD plan and want to continue your coverage for the 2012 plan year, you do not have to return your form unless you want to make changes to other coverages or enroll in vision coverage. Please keep your personalized Option Period Enrollment/Change Form as proof of your coverage. Confirming Enrollment You will receive a letter from your MA-PD plan confirming your enrollment and effective date. Just before your effective date, you will receive your plan ID card and member handbook. When a Covered Family Member is Not Yet Eligible for Medicare All covered family members must enroll in the same plan. For example, if you are enrolled in the CommunityCare MA-PD plan, your pre-Medicare spouse or dependents must enroll in one of the CommunityCare HMO options. As the primary member, you must indicate that you have elected an MA-PD plan option and complete all the required information regarding your dependents on your Option Period Enrollment/Change Form. Disenrolling or Transferring Plans ♦♦If you are changing from one MA-PD plan to another, your new plan coverage will begin on January 1, 2012, and you will automatically be disenrolled from your previous plan. ♦♦If you are changing from an MA-PD plan to a Medicare supplement plan, Medicare requires that you write to your former MA-PD plan to advise them of your disenrollment. You will receive a letter from your former plan advising you of the date your coverage ends. You must also complete and submit your Option Period Enrollment/Change Form to OSEEGIB indicating your change in plans. ♦♦Failure to notify your current MA-PD plan of your disenrollment can result in additional expenses that will not be reimbursed by Medicare or your new plan. ♦♦Failure to notify your plan and OSEEGIB in a timely manner can result in delayed or denied enrollment in your new plan and create problems receiving services. 36 2012 Plan YearCreditable Coverage Notice The Medicare Advantage Plans offered through OSEEGIB qualify as Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug (MA-PD) Plans. All MA-PD plans available through OSEEGIB offer Creditable Coverage. This means that if you elect a different Medicare plan the next year, you will not have a penalty. Limiting Charge If you go out of your plans provider network, under Medicare guidelines, the highest amount you can be charged for a covered service by doctors and other health care suppliers who don’t accept assignment is known as the limiting charge. The limiting charge is 15% over Medicare’s approved amount. The limiting charge only applies to certain services and not to supplies or equipment. Enrollment Periods There are three time periods when you can enroll in or disenroll from an MA-PD plan. ♦ The Initial Enrollment Period – The Initial Enrollment Period refers to the time period when you first become eligible for enrollment. This seven-month period begins three months prior to your month of eligibility and extends three months beyond your month of eligibility. Your coverage is effective the first of the month in which you become Medicare eligible, or the first of the month following your election, whichever is later. ♦ The Annual Coordinated Election Period – This year, the annual Option Period (Annual Coordinated Election Period) runs through December 7. Once the annual Option Period ends, no plan changes can be made until the next annual Option Period. ♦ Special Enrollment Periods – Special Enrollment Periods may be allowed under certain situations. Your coverage is effective following the processing of your paperwork. Extra Help Paying For Part D (Medicare Low Income Subsidy Information) People with limited incomes may get extra help to pay for prescription drug costs. This extra help is known as the low-income subsidy or LIS. Medicare could pay up to 75% or more of your drug costs including monthly prescription drug premiums, annual pharmacy deductibles, and prescription copays. Those who qualify are not subject to the Coverage Gap or the late enrollment penalty.
