The federal Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (COBRA) gives employees and their qualified beneficiaries the opportunity to continue health insurance coverage under Lawrence Tech's health plan when a "qualifying event" would normally result in the loss of eligibility. Lawrence Tech provides each eligible employee and their qualified beneficiaries with a written notice describing your rights to continue your health care coverage under Lawrence Tech's group health insurance plans.

Summary Plan Description

The Summary Plan Description (SPD) document informs plan participants of their rights under the plan. You may also request a paper copy of the SPD document free of charge by emailing hr@zo23.com. Some of the plan features are listed below include qualifying beneficiaries and qualifying events.

Qualifying Beneficiaries

A qualifying beneficiary generally is an individual covered by a group health plan on the day before a qualifying event and is an employee, the employee's spouse, or an employee's dependent child. In addition, any child born to or placed for adoption with a covered employee during the period of COBRA coverage is considered a qualified beneficiary.

Qualifying Events

Qualifying events are certain events that would cause an individual to lose health coverage. The type of qualifying event will determine who the qualifying beneficiaries are and the amount of time that a plan must offer the health coverage to them under COBRA. Some common qualifying events are employee's voluntary or involuntary termination of employment, a reduction in an employee's hours or a leave of absence; an employee's divorce or legal separation; employee becomes entitled to Medicare; death of covered employee, and a dependent child no longer meeting eligibility requirements.

The Employee Assistance Program (EAP) provides eligible employees assistance with everything from life's every day issues to life's more difficult problems. Information shared with an outside EAP counselor is kept completely confidential. The EAP counselors assist employees with both work-related and personal problems they or their family members may be experiencing.

Employees can receive assistance at any time of day or night to talk immediately with a professional counselor about issues such as: family relationships; marital difficulties; elder care and child care; financial and legal matters; drug and alcohol abuse; depression and loneliness; mental health problems; etc. For more serious concerns, the EAP counselor will make referrals to local qualified professionals or agencies that have been pre-screened. Follow-up calls are made to make sure the issue is addressed.

Employees may participate in the flexible spending account (FSA) program for paid health care and/or child care expense. The FSAs are funded by a salary reduction program and administered through Health Equity | WageWorks .

Employees may allocate before-tax dollars to cover anticipated expenses. Prior to the beginning of each plan year, each participant decides the amount of salary to be allocated to each type of plan (health care and/or dependent care). Throughout the year the employee will submit invoices for reimbursement for health-related expenses (including deductibles, copays, non-covered treatments, prescription glasses, doctor's prescribed over-the-counter medication, etc.) and/or for their child care expenses.

**Any money left over in a FSA after all eligible claims have been paid may not be returned to the employee.

Using flexible compensation, an employee "reduces" his/her taxable income. As a result, Social Security, federal and state income taxes are reduced. The more an employee uses flexible compensation, the lower his/her tax base will be, and the more net spendable income the employee will have.

Contact the Office of Human Resources or visit the Health Equity | WageWorks web site to learn more about the benefits, risks, and limits associated with the flexible spending accounts.

Special Enrollment under HIPAA DOC

If you decline coverage for yourself and/or your dependents (including your spouse) because you are covered under another health plan, you may, in the future, be able to enroll yourself and/or your dependents in the plan if you experience an involuntary loss of that coverage (e.g., spouse loses his/her job, divorce) or if the employer stops contributing towards the coverage. However, you must request enrollment within 30 days after your other coverage ends or after the employer stops contributing towards the other coverage.

However, you must request enrollment within 60 days after the date eligibility is lost.

If you or a dependent becomes eligible for premium assistance under an applicable State Medicaid or CHIP plan to purchase coverage under the group health plan, you may be able to enroll yourself and/or your dependent(s).

Medical Insurance Options

There are two HAP HMO Options: HMO 500 and HMO 1000. Both plans are Health Maintenance Organization (HMO). The plans are only available to Michigan residents. Under the HMO plan, you must select a participating Primary Care Physician (PCP) through whom all your care will be directed.

To find a Health Alliance Plan provider, login at www.hap.org. To change your PCP with HAP, register and login as a member at www.hap.org.

Need to see a specialist? No problem. With HAP, specialty office visits don't require referrals from your primary care physician. But in some cases, the specialist you see may require a referral from your PCP. Many specialists are booked out months in advance, and may only accept patients whose PCP believes they need specialty care. Females using the HMO plan may select a PCP as well as an OB/GYN and are not required to obtain referrals for routine OB/GYN services. Regular services are allowed twice per year. If you seek services from a physician or hospital outside of the network, no benefits will be payable (unless specified as an emergency).

For information regarding Referrals and Authorization, login to the HAP web site located at www.hap.org.

The AHL PPO Plan is provided through a Preferred Provider Organization (PPO), where a network of preselected hospitals and doctors is available for your use. This is a national plan and is available to all U.S. residents. If you use the network, you will receive the highest level of benefits offered by the plan. While the network is available, you are not required to use it. You always have the complete freedom to select any provider whenever you need care. However, the out of network benefits are lower and your out of pocket costs are higher. If you use a non participating provider, you may also be billed the difference between the approved amount and the provider’s charge.

To find a AHL PPO provider online, visit www.hap.org.

After the completion of one year of service, the University provides short-term disability (STD) income protection benefits during a medical leave of absence to eligible full-time employees. The STD income protection is a benefit that provides partial or full pay (depending on employee classification) for employees who are unable to work due to his or her own non-work related illness, injury, or disability.

  • Faculty or Academic Administrative employees may receive short-term disability income benefits that compensates at 100% of salary during the contract term and is available if needed, until long-term disability takes effect.
  • Staff or Non-Academic Administrative employees may receive short-term disability income benefits that compensates at 60% of your basic earnings for the period of disability after your leave time has been applied. Employees are required to use any available sick days until they are exhausted. After sick time is exhausted, employees may elect to use their vacation and/or personal days, so as to be paid for all or a portion of the leave before short-term disability income benefits may apply.

There is a waiting period of seven (7) calendar days before STD income benefits apply. The STD coverage would be continued to the end of the disability or to a maximum period of 90 calendar days (65 work days).
