MEDICAL/RX
BCN HMO Medical/Rx (Group # 00134569) | 800.662.6667 | www.bcbs.com
Priority Health Medical/Rx (Group #796771) | 800.942.0954 | www.priorityhealth.com
Blue Care Newtork and Priority Health will continue to be the medical and prescription carrier this year. The plans that will be offered effective January 1, 2023 are as follows:
- BCN HMO 250
- Priority Health HMO Copay Align 100
An HMO gives you access to doctors and hospitals within the HMO network. But unlike PPO plans, care under an HMO plan is covered only if you see a provider within the BCN or Priority Health networks. You must select a primary care physician (PCP) who will determine the care/treatment you need. To see other doctors, such as a specialist, you must obtain a referral from your PCP.
To find out if your provider is in-network, please visit the BCN or Priority Health website below. Be sure to select your correct network by choosing Employer Group Plan and Blue Care Network (BCN) or Southeast MI Partners - A (PH) in the upper right corner. Once you select your correct network you can search for a doctor or care provider by name, specialty, or condition.

FLEXIBLE SPENDING ACCOUNT (FSA)
HealthSmart: FSA (Company Code: D3R) | 800.821.8197 | www.healthsmart.com
The Health Care and Dependent Care Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) allow you to set aside pre-tax dollars to pay for eligible expenses. By contributing to one or both of the Flexible Spending Accounts you reduce your taxable income, so you pay less in taxes — which saves you money.
Contributions
The election you make during enrollment is your election for the entire plan year. You may change it only if you have a qualifying life event and the change request must be consistent with the event.
You may contribute as follows:
Health Care FSA
- Up to $3,050 annually
- All benefit eligible can participate
- Reimbursements allowed for unreimbursed medical, prescription, dental, and vision expenses
Dependent Care FSA
- Up to $5,000 annually
- Limited to $2,500 if you are married and file separate tax returns
How the FSA Plan Works
- You must incur your eligible expenses during the plan year. An expense is incurred when the service is performed, not when you are billed or pay for the service. All unused FSA funds do not roll over from year to year. If you do not use the funds in your account by December 31, 2023, you'll lose them.
