LG Consumer Health Insurance Plan – Eligibility: 0.5 FTE effective on first of the month coinciding with the current month

The LG Consumer Health Insurance Plan is a High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP) that provides you with the opportunity to participate in a Health Savings Account (HSA). You have significant power and responsibility for your health care decisions when you participate in a HSA-qualified health plan. The LG Consumer Plan requires no employee cost sharing – this means no health insurance premiums will be deducted from your pay! Without the expense of bi-weekly healthcare premiums with this Plan, you are able to deposit money in your HSA. Where you can save on taxes and have flexibility and control over your health care costs. The money in your HSA remains yours, even if you terminate employment, switch health plans or retire.

Note: LGHealth Insurance plan year from July 1 – June 30

What Does High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP) Mean?

In a HDHP, your medical and prescription drug expenses must exceed the amount of your deductible in order to receive reimbursement from the Plan. In other words, the Plan pays for all covered expenses incurred after you have met the annual deductible amount and out-of-pocket expense maximum limits for individual and/or family (depending on the elected coverage level).

Benefits of a Healthy Lifestyle

As a participant in the LG Consumer Plan, all of your Preventive Care visits are covered 100% without having to meet your annual deductible.

Note: To be considered “preventive care”, the claim must be coded as a wellness visit and the service must be performed by an in-network provider. Preventive Care visits include annual checkups and screenings for each enrolled member of your family.

Am I Eligible to Participate in the LG Consumer Plan and/or HSA?

Employees who elect to participate in the LG Consumer Plan will be automatically enrolled in the HSA (although you will not be required to contribute to the HSA), and can increase, decrease, start and stop contributions as often as they like. Therefore, you must be eligible to own a HSA before you may participate in the LG Consumer Plan. The IRS has strict guidelines to determine who is eligible to own and contribute to a HSA – see below for further detail:

Individuals eligible to own a HSA:

May not also be covered under any health plan that isn’t a qualified HDHP
Must not be enrolled in Medicare
May not be eligible as a dependent on another individual’s tax return

LG Select Health Insurance Plan – Eligibility: 0.5 FTE effective on first of the month coinciding with the current month

The LG Select Health Insurance Plan is designed for employees who want the lowest possible deductible, low co-insurance, are willing to pay a bi-weekly premium for their Health Insurance Plan and prefer co-payments for physician office visits and prescription drugs.

Note: LGHealth Insurance plan year from July 1 – June 30

See below for some highlights of the LG Select Health Insurance Plan:

This plan has co-payments (no deductible) for primary care providers and specialist office visits.
At LG Health Outpatient Facilities, employees and families will have zero out-of-pocket expenses for related professional and facility charges for diagnostic tests.
LG Health inpatient co-payments are $200. LG Health hospital provider services are subject to the annual deductible* and co-insurance.

*When enrolled members of a family incur covered expenses that are subject to the deductible and they are equal to, or greater than, the dollar amount of the family deductible, then the family deductible will be considered satisfied for all family members for that calendar year. Any number of family members may help to meet the family deductible amount, but no more than each person’s individual deductible amount may be applied toward satisfaction of the family deductible by any family member.

Benefits of a Healthy Lifestyle

Preventive Care is covered 100% without having to meet your annual deductible when participating in the LG Select Plan.

Paying for Qualified Medical Expenses

Employees enrolling in the LG Select Plan are eligible to enroll in a Health Care Flexible Spending Account (FSA) for out-of-pocket expenses associated with deductibles, co-payments, and co-insurance. See Flexible Spending Accounts [link to Flexible Spending Accounts page] for further information on FSAs.
