2022-2023 Benefits
Medical: With health care expenses continuing to rise nationally, we felt the impact of a significant increase in premiums from Humana. After reviewing and seeking other proposals, we were able to find a more reasonable option and thus will be making a move to United Healthcare Level Funded! United Healthcare’s network is as broad if not broader than Humana. All three options will be on a National Network platform. Please note there are some tradeoffs regarding benefits on the plans. United Healthcare Level Funded does not offer an “Ochsner Only Network” plan; therefore, we have replaced that plan with another alternative. If you elect the High Deductible Plan, please make sure to take advantage of a Health Savings Account (HSA). A Health Savings Account (HSA) allows you to set aside pre-tax dollars to help pay for qualified medical, dental and vision expenses. The funds can roll over from year to year, and you can take them with you when you change jobs or retire. An HSA is a separate account, independent of your medical plan. Think of it like a “healthcare IRA.” Depending on your circumstances, you may find that the High Deductible plan is a better option than the Copay Plans. LATG does not sponsor an HSA. Please reach out to your current banking institution, local credit union, or NFP (our benefits team), if you need help setting up an HSA.
Please review all options carefully to determine which plan best suits you and your family.
** PLEASE NOTE THAT CVS WILL NOT BE INCLUDED IN OUR PHARMACY NETWORK. WALGREENS IS THE PREFERRED PHARMACY FOR UNITED HEALTHCARE LEVEL FUNDED AND ATTACHED YOU WILL FIND A LIST OF IN-NETWORK PHARMACIES INCLUDED ON THE PLAN. **
