SMART

THIS IS YOUR CHANCE TO CHANGE HEALTH COVERAGE FOR 2016Annual Enrollment is your chance to change your medical coverage election for 2016. Before making a decision, carefully consider all of your alternatives, such as options available through OneExchange or the State Marketplace. If you do not make changes, your current 2015 elections will carry over to 2016. Please note that if you drop medical coverage for any reason, you cannot re-enroll for retiree benefits at American.

ENROLLReview and make changes to your current elections by logging in to the Benefits Service Center via Retiree Jetnet or https://resources.hewitt.com/american-airlines beginning October 12, 2015. Be sure to submit changes by October 23, 2015, 11:59 p.m. (CT).

Call the Benefits Service Center at 888-860-6178 if you have any questions. Representatives are available Monday–Friday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. (CT).

OneExchange Retiree Medical OptionsAmerican has partnered with OneExchange — a private insurance marketplace from Towers Watson — to offer you and your dependents health care coverage on the individual market.

OneExchange offers a wide variety of plans (including dental and vision plans) and carriers — plans that may have better coverage and/or lower costs than you’re paying today and will have to pay in 2016 if you remain in an American option.

OneExchange Benefit Advisors can help you:

• Choose a plan during Annual Enrollment.

• Choose a plan later in 2016 if you or a spouse become eligible for Medicare.

• Find out if you are eligible for a federal subsidy if you purchase a State Marketplace plan through OneExchange.

• Get answers to questions throughout the year, and even help you with claims and work with carriers on your behalf.

Learn more about your options through OneExchange at www.oneexchange.com/american or call 844-287-9947 Monday–Friday from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. (CT).
