Agreement to provide coverage for all eligible individuals (Insured) and their Dependents, provided the benefit accompanies an approved medical coverage product.

Dependent means any of the following whose coverage under the Policy has become effective and has not ended: (1) the Insured’s lawful spouse; (2) the Dependent child or children of an Insured or of an Insured’s spouse (which includes but is not limited to stepchildren, legally adopted children, children placed in the home for adoption, and foster children) up to age 26.

Benefits are payable for a newborn child from the moment of birth. Benefits are payable for a child placed in the home for adoption from the date of placement as certified by the publicor private agency making the placement of such child pursuant to an adoption proceeding. Benefits for such placed child will terminate upon termination of the adoption proceedings as certified by the public or private agency. Benefits are payable for an adopted child, if not placed in the home before adoption, from the moment of adoption. Coverage for such child will consist of benefits for outpatient prescription drugs due to injury and sickness including the necessary care and treatment of medically diagnosed congenital defects and birth abnormalities.

If additional premium is required, the Employee must enroll the newborn child, the child placed for adoption, or the adopted child and furnish the required premium within 31 days after birth, placement, or adoption. If premium is not furnished within that period, coverage as to such child will terminate at the end of such 31-day period.

A family status change means the addition of a Dependent to an Employee’s family due to marriage, birth or adoption. A Family Status Change will also be deemed to have occurred on the date the Employee’s Dependent becomes eligible due to:1. loss of coverage under a public or private health insurance

plan due to termination of employment or eligibility, termination of the plan, death of a spouse, divorce; or

2. the Insured being required by court order to provide coverage for a spouse or minor child

All Employees and their Dependents, who meet the plan definition and are in an eligible class, as shown on the Participating Organization’s application, are eligible for coverage subject to the Waiting Period.

Employee means a person employed by the Participating Organization and meeting the minimum hourly requirement shown in the Participating Organization’s application. If the Employer is a sole proprietorship or partnership, the individual proprietor or each of the partners is an Employee only if engaged in the regular business of the Employer for the minimum hourly requirement shown in the Participating Organization’s application. No director of a corporate Employer is an Employee solely because of such directorship. Employee also includes a retiree, but only if a retiree class is requested by the Participating Organization.

Dependent means any of the following whose coverage under the Policy has become effective and has not ended: (1) the Employee’s lawful spouse; (2) the unmarried dependent child or children of an Employee or of an Employee’s spouse (which includes stepchildren, legally adopted children, children placed in the home for adoption, and foster children) up to age 26.

Employees - An Employee’s coverage will be effective on the first of the month following the date the Employee becomes eligible, subject to the receipt of the first premium. In no event will coverage become effective before the Effective Date of the Policy.

Dependents - Dependent coverage may only be added and be effective at the times described herein. In no event will coverage become effective before the Effective date of the Policy or Employee’s coverage.

If the Employee is not required to pay any of the Dependent premium, eligible Dependents’ coverage will be effective on the first of the month following the date the Dependent becomes eligible, subject to the receipt of the first premium.

Timely Enrollees - If the Employee is required to pay part or all of the Dependent premium and an eligible Employee elects Dependent coverage in writing within 31 days after becoming eligible, the eligible Dependent’s coverage will become effective as of the date the Employee’s coverage is effective, subject to the receipt of the first premium.

Qualified Late Enrollees - If the Employee is required to pay part or all of the Dependent premium and an eligible Employee elects Dependent coverage during an open enrollment period established by the Employer or within 31 days of a Family Status Change, eligible Dependents’ coverage will become effective on the first of the month following the date such coverage is elected in writing, subject to the receipt of the first premium.

Benefits are payable for a newborn child from the moment of birth. Benefits are payable for a child placed in the home for adoption from the date of placement as certified by the publicor private agency making the placement of such child pursuant to an adoption proceeding. Benefits for such placed child will terminate upon termination of the adoption proceedings as certified by the public or private agency. Benefits are payable for an adopted child, if not placed in the home before adoption, from the moment of adoption. Coverage for such child will consist of benefits for outpatient prescription drugs due to injury and sickness including the necessary care and treatment of medically diagnosed congenital defects and birth abnormalities.

If additional premium is required, the Employee must enroll the newborn child, the child placed for adoption, or the adopted child and furnish the required premium within 31 days after birth, placement, or adoption. If premium is not furnished within that period, coverage as to such child will terminate at the end of such 31-day period.

A family status change means the addition of a Dependent to an Employee’s family due to marriage, birth or adoption. A Family Status Change will also be deemed to have occurred on the date the Employee’s Dependent becomes eligible due to:1. loss of coverage under a public or private health insurance

plan due to termination of employment or eligibility, termination of the plan, death of a spouse, divorce; or

2. the Insured being required by court order to provide coverage for a spouse or minor child

PRAM INSURANCE SERVICES, INC.

IMPLEMENTATIONFOR EMPLOYER GROUPSPRAM prefers to have at least 30 days to set up a plan in the PBM system & get the support of the carrier and PBM. Each PBM requires a minimum amount of lead time in order to set up a plan no matter what the size.

In the event that a 30 day lead time is not possible, business submitted before the 20th of the month will generally have a first of the following month effective date. This will allow a minimum amount of time to set up the plan; it does not guarantee that the plan will be set up on or before the first of the billing month. Nor does it guarantee that cards will be in the member’s hands on or before the first of the month. PRAM will endeavor to set up a bound plan for the first of the following month in three to five working days upon receipt of a complete submission packet. A complete submission packet includes: the Sold Case New Business Notification Form, the first full month’s premium, the Master Employer Application, and the member eligibility file in an acceptable PRAM format. With this complete information packet we can work towards an effective date of the first of the following month, subject to the PBM’s and PRAM’s timeline and as required by our contractual agreement with the carrier.

PRAM may elect not to accept eligibility if the administrator of the employer fails to meet certain established guidelines in terms of proper electronic formatting, quality and timing of eligibility.
