Tier 1
Understanding Healthcare TermsDeductible – The amount you pay out of your own pocket before your insurance pays (just like your car insurance deductible)
Coinsurance – After you have met your deductible, this is the amount/share of the costs you pay for your medical expenses and bills. (For example, on the Medical Plans, the coinsurance is 80% in network. The medical plan pays 80% and you would pay 20%)
Copayments – The amount you pay at the time of service in the doctor’s office or at the pharmacy
Out of Pocket Maximum – The most you would have to pay in a single year out of your own pocket. This includes deductible, medical and Rx copays and your medical coinsurance. After you meet your Out of Pocket Maximum, the plan pays 100% for the rest of the calendar year.
Network Provider – Doctors, hospitals and other health care professionals with whom we have negotiated prices and are part of our network. Also called “in-network” provider or participating provider.

Short -Term Disability Insurance
An overview of the benefits
EN-1545 (03-12) 37
What would you do if your paycheck stopped tomorrow?How would you pay the bills if you were
disabled?A disability could last for weeks, months or
even longer.
Would you: Be able to rely on your savings? Borrow from friends or family? Depend on your credit cards?
Would medical insurance, workers’ compensation or
social security disability cover your earnings if you
became disabled?
The answer is NO in most cases.
38
It’s important to know your policy’s definition of disability.
You are disabled when Unum determines that: You are limited from performing the material and
substantial duties of your regular occupation due to sickness or injury; and
You have a 20% or more loss in weekly earnings due to the same sickness or injury
39
How much coverage can you have? Base Policy: If you meet the definition of
disability, you would be eligible to receive a weekly benefit equal to 40% of your basic weekly earnings, up to a maximum of $200 per week. This benefit is paid for by the City of Frisco for every benefits-eligible employee.
Buy-Up Policy: If you meet the definition of disability, you would be eligible to receive a weekly benefit equal to 60% of your basic weekly earnings, up to a maximum of $1,000 per week. You can choose to buy 20% additional benefit, for a total weekly benefit of 60%.
What is the elimination period? 30 days
Your benefit amount
What else do I need to know:
If you are disabled, you may receive a benefit for up to 22 weeks.

Long-Term Disability Insurance
An overview of the benefits
EN-1544 (7-12) 41
A disability could last for weeks, months or even longer. Could you pay your bills for months without a
paycheck?Most people can’t afford it.
Would you:• Be able to access money you have saved?• Borrow from friends or family?• Run up credit card debt?
Would other insurance help?Most often it does not. Medical insurance doesn’t replace lost income. Workers’ compensation only covers job-related
issues. Social Security disability only helps if your disability
is terminal or is expected to last at least a year.42
Know your plan’s definition of disabilityIt’s important to understand what is covered.
You are limited from performing the duties required of your regular occupation due to sickness or injury; and
You have a 20% or more loss of monthly earnings due to the sickness or injury; and
You are under the regular care of a physician.
Does this plan cover mental disability? Disabilities due to mental illness and disabilities based
primarily on self-reported symptoms have a limited payment period of 24 months per lifetime.
Such benefits would continue beyond 24 months only if you are institutionalized or hospitalized as a result of the disability.
4343
What is the Plan Design?
Your monthly LTD benefit amount equals 60 % of your basic monthly earnings to a maximum of $5,500
As long as you continue to meet the definition of disability, your LTD benefits are payable up to age 65. If you are over the age of 60 on the date of your disability, your maximum period of payment will occur according to the schedule specified in your contract.
What is the elimination period? 180 days

44
Can other benefits reduce my disability benefits?Your disability benefit may be reduced by the amount of
other incomereplacement you receive for the same disability, such as
benefits fromSocial Security, workers’ compensation.*
An example of how the amount of benefit may be reduced or offset by
income from other sources: Individual’s weekly pre-disability earnings:...........$3,000
Long term disability benefit percentage:............... x 60%
Unreduced maximum benefit:............................. $1,800
Less Social Security disability benefit per month:... $900
Less state disability income benefit per month:......-$300
Monthly long term disability benefit:.....................$60045
*Example above illustrates how at least two common reductions would reduce the maximum benefit the individual would receive (benefit percent and amounts are for illustration purposes only and may not be representative of your plan). Please refer to your policy certificate for the full list of offsets

Why Do You Need Accident Insurance?
The benefitofferings
An accidental injury can bust your budgetAccident insurance can pay a benefit directly to you if you suffer a covered injury. It can offset the high cost of co-pays, deductibles and other expenses your medical insurance doesn’t cover.
Rob’s storyRob bought a new bike so he could lose a few pounds — but he lost his balance instead. He was diagnosed with a torn knee ligament and a broken toe. Rob had one lucky break — his accident insurance paid him $900!
Here’s how Rob’s plan helped: $400 ambulance benefit1
$150 emergency room benefit2
$100 fractured toe $150 two follow up visits $100 crutches
If Rob was more seriously injured, this plan could:
Pay a catastrophic benefit up to $100,0003
Cover loss of sight, hearing, paralysis, etc. Pay a death benefit of $50,000 if he dies due to an accident
Benefit amounts are for illustration purposes only. Actual benefit amounts can change depending on actual plan design and situs state. 1 In CT, there is a $500 benefit payable for outpatient emergency room medical care for accidental ingestion of a controlled substance. 2 In CA and CT, no ground or air ambulance benefit is payable. 3 In ME, catastrophic benefits amounts vary. 48

If he/she is applying for coverage on a day that is not a workday, then he/she will be considered actively at work if he/she meets this definition as of the last scheduled workday.

Thanks to her critical illness coverage, Lisa was able to afford the out-of-pocket costs her medical insurance didn’t cover.Lisa’s critical illness insurance helped cover the costBecause she had selected a benefit amount of $20,000, her plan paid her that amount in a lump sum, regardless of what she spent.
