What is Saint Luke’s 24/7?

Saint Luke’s 24/7, powered by MDLIVE, is a new mobile app that connects you to a provider anytime, anywhere by phone, mobile device, or web. Saint Luke’s 24/7 brings virtual health care right to your fin-gertips, and gives you round-the-clock access to providers who can diagnose, recommend treatment, and prescribe medication in real time.

Using the app, a virtual visit experience will be similar to a Skype or FaceTime video chat, allowing the provider to see and talk to the patient, ask questions in real time, and discuss treatment options. The Saint Luke’s and MDLIVE provider network consists of board certified family medicine, internal medicine, emergency medicine, and pediatrics practitioners. This new telehealth service is available to benefits eligible employees and their families regardless of plan coverage.

What are common conditions that can be treated using Saint Luke’s 24/7?

The providers are trained to treat a wide range of conditions for adults and children as young as 18 months. Most common conditions seen for treatment are:

Acne

Allergies

Asthma

Bronchitis

Cold and flu

Constipation

Diarrhea and nausea

Ear infections

Fever, headache, sore throat

Infections

Insect bites

Joint aches

Pink eye

Rashes

Respiratory infections

Urinary tract infections

How do I sign up for Saint Luke’s 24/7 and activate my account?

You can easily sign up and activate your account by following the simple steps outlined in the

St. Luke’s 24/7 REGISTRATION GUIDE (click HERE).

IMPORTANT: You must register under the group account “SMITHVILLE” to receive the zero consulta-tion fee. DO NOT register as an “Individual” or you will be charged a $40—$60 service fee.

How do I register my dependents?

Each of your dependents should have their own profile under your registered account. To create their profiles, click the My Account button, and then select the Family tab. You will need to register some basic information about each dependent and will need to confirm the registration using the email address you provide for that person. By making sure each family member is seen under their profile, you can ensure their treatment, prescriptions, and records are appropriately stored under their name.

Basic Life and AD&D Insurance: One America

Smithville R-II School District provides a basic $10,000 term life insurance benefit at no cost to you. This product is not portable and ends when one ends employment with the District.

Voluntary Life Insurance

The voluntary life product allows you to purchase additional coverage over and beyond what the District provides to you. You may also purchase coverage for your spouse and/or children. If you wish to purchase coverage on your spouse and/or dependents, you must purchase Voluntary Life for yourself as well.

New employees may participate under a Guaranteed Issue enrollment. New employees may purchase up to $150,000 on yourself, $25,000 on your spouse and $10,000 on your children without any medical questions.

This year, current employees electing new coverage or an increase in cover-age for themselves, spouse and/or child (ren) may enroll under the Guaranteed Issue enrollment. One exception to the Guaranteed Issue enrollment for current employees is that if an employee has applied for coverage or increase in coverage in the past and was denied due to medical review, the Guaranteed Issue is non-applicable.

Section 125 Plan

You are eligible to participate in the Section 125 Plan if you work 30 or more hours per week. Health Eligibility: You are eligible to participate in the flexible benefits plan if you work 30 or more hours per week AND you or your spouse are not partic-ipating in a Health Savings Account.

Dependent Care Eligibility: You are eligible to participate in the flexible benefits plan if you work 30 or more hours per week.

For questions concerning your medi-cal benefits, a claim, to identify a net-work provider, preventative coverage, prescription services, or other ques-tions, contact: CBIZ at 800-815-3023 Myplans.CBIZ.com

Smithville R-II School District provides you the opportunity to pay for out-of-pocket medical, dental, vision and dependent care expenses with pre-tax dollars through Flexible Spending Accounts. You must re-enroll in the plan annually to par-ticipate for the plan year. You can save approximately 25 percent of each dollar spent on these expenses when you participate in a FSA.

A health care FSA is used to reimburse out-of-pocket healthcare expenses incurred by you and your dependents. A dependent care FSA is used to reimburse expenses related to care of eligible dependents while you and your spouse work.

Contributions to your FSA come out of your paycheck before any taxes are taken out. This means that you don’t pay federal income tax, Social Security taxes, or state and local income taxes on the portion of your paycheck you contribute to your FSA. You should contribute the amount of money you expect to pay, out of pocket, for eligible expenses for the plan period. If you do not use the money you contributed it will not be refunded to you or carried forward to a future plan year. This is the use-it-or-lose-it rule.

The maximum that you can contribute to the Health Care Flexible Spending account is $2,700.

The maximum that you can contribute to the Dependent Care Flexible Spend-ing Account is $5,000 if you are a single employee or married filing jointly, or $2,500 if you are married and filing separately.

Well4Life Warriors Wellness Program

Eligibility:

All district employees, spouses, and depend-

ents age 16 or older are eligible for

participation in the wellness program.

Our mission is to create a culture of wellness at

Smithville Schools. Through comprehensive programming, the District will strive to nurture and improve the well-being of

all staff.

A shared health clinic open to Smithville School District employees, retirees, and their dependents. Medical staff include Physicians and

Family and Pediatric Nurse Practitioners focused on prevention and urgent care needs. While this is not a substitute for a primary care

physician, it will provide an affordable option for our staff to receive basic health care. Employees, dependents and district retirees are

eligible to take advantage of these services with copayment based on their current insurance coverage.
