Make the most of your benefits Continuing to offer valuable benefits that are affordable and competitive isn’t

easy. That’s especially true when increasing health care costs and compliance

with health care reform laws are challenging all of us on a personal and

business level. But it’s the right thing to do, and it makes me proud that our

collective team works hard to make the adjustments needed to maintain a

competitive plan for our self-insured company.

How about you? What adjustments have you made – daily, monthly, annually –

to ensure you’re taking full advantage of what your benefits premium buys you? Are you:

• Scheduling your recommended 100%-covered preventive care and screenings, especially an

annual physical?

• Choosing generic medications when available – even getting FREE preventive generic medications,

if applicable, through the SCANA Pharmacy?

• Maximizing the wellness resources SCANA and BlueCross BlueShield make available to help you

achieve or maintain your best health?

• Shopping around for quality care at the best price and choosing in-network providers to get the

lowest rate?

• Investing in a health savings account and funding it now, even if you don’t need it, as a way to save

for health care costs in your retirement? SCANA even provides you seed money to help you get started.

Don’t leave anything on the table. Make the most of the benefits available to you. Enclosed is information

to help you do that.

After reviewing the details contained here, if you have any questions, be sure and call the Employee

Resource Center at 803-217-4444.

Stay well,

Kevin Marsh

SCANA Chairman & Chief Executive Officer

Your Benefits. Your Choice.6

The SCANA Choice plan is a consumer-driven health plan featuring affordable premiums.

In this plan, your medical and prescription costs combine to satisfy the deductible and

out-of-pocket maximum.

As a participant in the SCANA Choice plan, you may be eligible to open a health savings account through HSA Bank to contribute pretax dollars through payroll deduction*. SCANA also contributes seed money – $400 for individual coverage and $800 for any level of family coverage – into your HSA account. The account is yours to use for paying medical expenses as they occur or to save for future needs, like medical expenses in retirement. You may even use the account to pay qualified medical expenses for your spouse who may be covered under another plan, as long as your spouse doesn’t have a health care flexible spending account (FSA).

Prescription coverage is included when you elect medical coverage through SCANA, and preventive services are provided at 100 percent coverage when an in-network provider is used.

* Individuals enrolled in TRICARE or Medicare, or who have received VA medical benefits in the previous 90 days, are not eligibleto make HSA contributions or receive seed money from SCANA.

Health savings accounts (HSAs) work in combination with an HSA-compatible health plan. The HSA allows you to contribute funds on a pretax or tax-deductible basis, which you may use to pay for eligible medical expenses.

What are the advantages of an HSA?

• Funds Roll Over Annually There is no “use it or lose it” rule. If you don’t use your funds, you can save them for future, eligible medical expenses.

• Tax Advantages An HSA provides you triple tax savings: pretax funds can be used to contribute to your account; tax-free earnings through investment; and tax-free withdrawals for qualified medical expenses.

• You Own the Account Even if your HSA-compatible coverage ends, you can still use your HSA funds tax-free for eligible medical expenses.

• Additional Retirement Savings After age 65, you can withdraw funds (subject to applicable taxes) for purposes other than medical expenses, without penalty.

• Long-term Investment Opportunities You can invest your HSA dollars through HSA Bank’s investment partners, who offer stocks, bonds and mutual funds. For more information, visit www.hsabank.com/investments.

Note: Investment accounts are not FDIC insured, may lose value and are not a deposit or other obligation of, or guarantee by the bank. All HSAs with HSA Bank are FDIC insured.

• You’re in Charge You choose when to use your HSA or pay out of pocket.

Eligible medical expenses

An eligible medical expense is an expense that pays for health care services, equipment or medications as described in IRS Publication 502*. In general, your HSA can be used for:

• Expenses applied to your health plan deductible

• Dental care services

• Vision care services

• Prescription drugs and medicines

• Certain medical equipment

* A list of Qualified Medical Expenses can be found in IRS Publication 502, www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p502.pdf.

All employees are eligible for a health care FSA, specifically those who waive SCANA coverage or are ineligible to contribute to an HSA; however, you cannot contribute to both an HSA and a health care FSA.

Use the WageWorks Health Care Card.

Use your WageWorks Health Care Card instead of cash or credit at health care providers and pharmacies for eligible services, goods and prescriptions. You will only be able to use your card for over-the-counter (OTC) drugs at the pharmacy counter if a valid prescription is presented at the time of purchase. You still will be able to use your card for non-drug OTC items and devices, such as bandages and contact lens solution, as long as you shop at merchants that have an industry standard (IIAS) inventory system that can verify the eligibility of items at checkout. An updated list of IIAS merchants is maintained at www.sigis.com. Always remember to save receipts when using the card. The IRS requires you keep them for your tax records, and you will also need them if we request documentation for verification.

Using your FSA is easy.

When you elect a health care FSA, your account is funded with the full amount you’ve chosen at the beginning of the year. As soon as that happens, it’s ready to use for eligible expenses. Throughout the year, you “pay your account back” with pre-tax contributions from your paycheck.

You can also choose a WageWorks Dependent Care FSA to help with the cost of care for eligible children or aging parents while you are at work. A dependent care FSA works a lot like a health care FSA, but your account is funded several times a year, so funds are available as contributions are taken from your paycheck.

Sign up during open enrollment. See how much you could save at www.FSAWorks4Me.com.

Open a WageWorks® FSA and save on everyday expenses

Health care FSA balances up to $500 carry over at the end of the calendar year.

WageWorks is an independent company that provides FSA administration on behalf of the employer group, SCANA. Please consult your tax adviser regarding your personal situation and

whether this is the right program for you.

Questions?Helpful tips, guides, video tutorials and FAQs are available online at www.wageworks.com. WageWorks Customer Service professionals also are standing by to help you. Just call 877-WageWorks (877-924-3967), Monday – Friday, 8 a.m. – 8 p.m. EST.

It’s an emergency! Or … is it?

Emergency roomDefinitely head for the hospital with potentially life-threatening conditions such as:

• Heavy bleeding

• Loss of consciousness

• Major injuries, such as broken bones

• Severe pain or severe allergic reaction

• Suspected heart attack

• Head trauma

Urgent careThese clinics are less costly than an ER and could be a convenient choice for minor emergencies. Most offer shorter waits, walk-in services, and sometimes perks such as online check-in. Urgent care could be good for:

• Cold, cough, sore throat

• Flu, respiratory infections

• Minor fractures and sprains

• Eye, ear or skin infections

• Minor cuts and animal bites

It’s important to get to an emergency

room in a life-or-death situation. But it’s

also smart to know when the ER is really

your best option.

An ER visit could involve hours of

waiting and hundreds of dollars. You’ll

see a doctor who doesn’t know you —

and if you show up for something

minor like a cold or a sprain, you could

delay treatment for others who have

true emergencies.

Your primary care physician should be

your first call for routine medical care.

If your doctor’s office is closed, here

are some guidelines to help you

protect your health while saving time

and money.

It’s a big decision. Who will you turn to when you have a nagging health problem, a sick

child or symptoms that might be serious — or might not? The online Doctor and Hospital

Finder makes the decision a little easier.

You can search by city or ZIP code for providers near your home or work. Or narrow your search to find providers in certain specialties, such as pediatricians or allergists.

If you already have a doctor’s name, you can see whether he or she is in your network. You can even do an advanced search for providers who match your gender or language preferences.

Other tools, such as quality reports and patient reviews, provide extra insight about the doctors and facilities you’re considering. It’s worth taking a little time to check them out — and make sure you end up with exactly the kind of health services you want and need.

20 Your Benefits. Your Choice.

Life is not a spectator sport — but sometimes it feels like you’re tackling some really tough

problems. We provide an Employee Assistance Program (EAP) that can help, whether or not

your challenges are job-related.

Help getting over life’s hurdles

SCANA employees and family members are eligible for the EAP benefit. Each person receives three counseling sessions and three life management services per contract year free of charge. For more information, call 800-968-8143 or visit www.FirstSunEAP.com.

First Sun EAP administers the Employee Assistance Program. Because First Sun is a separate company, it is responsible for all services related to this program. If you haven’t sought help from the EAP, you might be surprised at all the situations in which it can be helpful. They range from counseling for a family crisis to referrals for pet professionals.

CounselingWe will pay for up to three confidential sessions for you and each of your household members. When you are challenged by personal or emotional issues, licensed counselors are available to help you evaluate the issue and develop a plan for dealing with it. Some examples:

• Marital, relationship or family conflicts

• Crisis intervention

• Mental health or substance abuse issues

• Handling stress, grief, loss or trauma

• Concerns about workplace issues or work-life balance

Life managementThe EAP can provide help with practical problems — how to draw up a living will, for instance. These services include:

• Help finding elder care or child care

• Financial advice for retirement, reorganizing the budget or dealing with a crisis

• Legal consultation from licensed attorneys

• Resources for finding the right school or college

• Adoption assistance

• A pet care program

Everyday choices for a happy, healthy life.

Wellness is more than

just seeing a doctor

when you are sick.

It means making

day-to-day decisions

that can put you on

the path to a long,

healthy life. There are

some risk factors you

can’t change — your

age, for example, or

health problems that

run in the family. So it

makes sense to focus

on risk factors you

can change.

MoveAim for 30–60 minutes of physical activity each day. Exercise doesn’t have to take place in a gym — get creative and find activities that you enjoy. Go for a walk, ride your bike, swim, jog, jump rope or even dance!

EatFill half of your plate with fruits and veggies. Swap out sugary sodas with water. Choose whole grains, such as wheat, oatmeal and brown rice, instead of refined grains like white bread and white rice. Reach for lean proteins and calcium-rich foods.

CareTake care of your body. Make sure you get enough sleep at night. Don’t smoke — if you do, find the help you need to quit. Schedule your annual physical. If you notice symptoms of a health issue, don’t procrastinate — see your doctor.

FeelGet mentally fit by finding ways to de-stress. Block off some “me time” in your busy schedule. Stay connected to your friends and family. Volunteer for something you’re passionate about. Read a new book or start a journal. Practice being grateful for one thing each day.

NOTE: Please read this notice carefully and keep it with your important papers. If you enroll in one of the plans approved by Medicare that offers prescription drug coverage, you may need to give a copy of this notice when you join. This notice shows you have been enrolled in a creditable health plan and are not required to pay a higher premium.

Intended AudienceThis notice is intended for anyone eligible for Medicare (employee or dependent) who is eligible for prescription drug coverage through the SCANA Choice Plan.

About This NoticeThis notice has information about your current SCANA prescription drug coverage and Medicare Part D, the prescription drug coverage available through Medicare. Important highlights of this notice are:

• Your next opportunity to enroll in Medicare D is October 15- December 7, 2016. This annual enrollment is available to those eligible for Medicare.

• SCANA has determined that your current prescription drug benefit is, on average for all plan participants, expected to pay out at least as much as the standard Medicare prescription drug coverage. Therefore, the SCANA prescription drug plan is creditable coverage.

• Creditable coverage means you may enroll for Medicare D during the 2017 enrollment period outlined above and not pay higher premiums.

If you or one of your dependents is eligible for Medicare, you or they have the option of continuing your existing health plan with prescription drug coverage from the Company or enrolling in the Medicare prescription drug coverage.

IMPORTANT: If you decide to enroll in Medicare prescription drug coverage, you are not eligible to continue the SCANA medical and prescription drug plans. Your coverage will be terminated. Also, even though your current prescription drug coverage with the Company is creditable, if you drop it and have a break in creditable coverage of 63 days or more before enrolling in the Medicare prescription drug coverage, you could be subject to paying higher premiums for coverage.

Limited Income AssistanceFor people with limited income and resources, extra help paying for a Medicare prescription drug plan is available. Information about this additional help is available from the Social Security Administration (SSA). For more information about this extra help, visit SSA online at www.socialsecurity.gov, or call them at 800-772-1213 (TTY 800-325-0778).

For More Information About This NoticeContact the SCANA Employee Resource Center at 803-217-4444 if you require further information about this notice. You may receive this notice at other times in the future, such as before the next enrollment period for Medicare prescription drug coverage, or if this coverage changes. You also may request a copy of this notice.

Women’s Health and Cancer Rights Act NoticeThe Women’s Health and Cancer Rights Act of 1998 provides benefits for mastectomy-related services including reconstruction and surgery to achieve symmetry between breasts, prostheses, and complications resulting from a mastectomy (including lymphedemas). You may contact the Employee Resource Center at 803-217-4444 for more information.

Special Enrollment NoticeIf you are declining enrollment for yourself or your dependents (including your spouse) because of other health insurance or group health plan coverage, you may be able to enroll yourself and your dependents in the SCANA health plans if you or your dependents lose eligibility for that other coverage (or if the employer stops contributing toward your or your dependents’ other coverage). However, you must request enrollment within 31 days after your or your dependents’ other coverage ends (or after the employer stops contributing toward the other coverage).

In addition, if you have a new dependent as a result of marriage, birth, adoption, or placement for adoption, you may be able to enroll yourself and your dependents. However, you must request enrollment within 31 days after the marriage, birth, adoption, or placement for adoption.

If either of the following two events occur, you will have 60 days from the date of the event to request enrollment in your employer’s plan:

• Your dependents lose Medicaid or Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) coverage because they are no longer eligible.

• Your dependents become eligible for a state’s premium assistance program.

To request special enrollment or obtain more information, contact the Employee Resource Center at 803-217-4444.

Premium Assistance Under Medicaid and the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) If you or your children are eligible for Medicaid or CHIP and you’re eligible for health coverage from your employer, your state may have a premium assistance program that can help pay for coverage, using funds from their Medicaid or CHIP programs. If you or your children aren’t eligible for Medicaid or CHIP, you won’t be eligible for these premium assistance programs but you may be able to buy individual insurance coverage through the Health Insurance Marketplace. For more information, visit www.healthcare.gov. If you or your dependents are already enrolled in Medicaid or CHIP and you live in a State listed below, contact your State Medicaid or CHIP office to find out if premium assistance is available. If you or your dependents are NOT currently enrolled in Medicaid or CHIP, and you think you or any of your dependents might be eligible for either of these programs, contact your State Medicaid or CHIP office or dial 1-877-KIDS NOW or www.insurekidsnow.gov to find out how to apply. If you qualify, ask your state if it has a program that might help you pay the premiums for an employer-sponsored plan. If you or your dependents are eligible for premium assistance under Medicaid or CHIP, as well as eligible under your employer plan, your employer must allow you to enroll in your employer plan if you aren’t already enrolled. This is called a “special enrollment” opportunity, and you must request coverage within 60 days of being determined eligible for premium assistance. If you have questions about enrolling in your employer plan, contact the Department of Labor at www.askebsa.dol.gov or call 1-866-444-EBSA (3272).

This notice describes how medical information about you may be used and disclosed and how you can get access to this information. Please review it carefully.

I. Introduction

This Notice describes Our1 legal obligations and your legal rights regarding Your Protected Health Information held by Us under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA). Among other things, this Notice describes how Your Protected Health Information may be used or disclosed to carry out treatment, payment, or health care operations, or for any other purposes that are permitted or required by law.

The HIPAA Privacy Rule protects only certain medical information known as “protected health information.” Generally, protected health information is individually identifiable health information, including demographic information, collected from you or created or received by a health care provider, a health care clearinghouse, a health plan, or your employer on behalf of a group health plan, that relates to:

1. your past, present or future physical or mental health or condition;

2. the provisions of health care to you; or

3. the past, present or future payment for the provision of health care to you.

The Plan provides health benefits to the eligible employees of SCANA Corporation (the “Plan Sponsor”) and their eligible dependents. The SCANA Pharmacy provides covered prescription drugs and services to Plan participants.

II. Our Privacy ObligationsWe are required by federal and applicable state law to protect the privacy of individually identifiable health information about you that We create or receive (“Your Protected Health Information”), to provide you with this Notice of Our legal duties and privacy practices, to provide notice to affected individuals following a breach of unsecured protected health information, and follow the terms of this Notice that are currently in effect. When We use or disclose Your Protected Health Information, we are required to abide by the terms of this Notice (or other notice in effect at the time of the use or disclosure).

III. Uses and Disclosures Without Your Written Authorization

We may use and disclose to others Your Protected Health Information without your written Authorization for the following purposes. For each category, we will explain what we mean and present some

examples. Not every use or disclosure in a category will be listed. However, the ways We are permitted to use and disclose information will fall within one of the categories. The amount of health information used or disclosed will be limited to information that excludes most direct identifiers, such as name, address, and Social Security number, unless more information is needed. If additional information is needed, it will be limited to the “minimum necessary” to accomplish the purpose of the use or disclosure.

A. Treatment. We may disclose medical information about you to facilitate medical treatment services. For example, the Plan may disclose Your Protected Health Information to your health care provider for its provision, coordination, or management of your health care and related services. SCANA Pharmacy may use or disclose Your Protected Health Information as necessary to maintain a patient profile on you, which may include information about you, your medical condition, medications, and any allergies you may have. SCANA Pharmacy may also use and disclose Your Protected Health Information in dispensing prescription medicines and related products and services, including counseling you and your caregivers about proper use of your medications.

B. Payment. We may use and disclose Your Protected Health Information for payment purposes. For example, the Plan may use or disclose Your Protected Health Information to obtain payment for your coverage and to determine and fulfill the Plan’s responsibility to provide health benefits, to make coverage determinations, administer claims and coordinate benefits with other coverage you may have. The Plan also may disclose Your Protected Health Information to another health plan or a health care provider for its payment activities — for example, for the other health plan to determine your eligibility or coverage, or for the health care provider to obtain payment for health care services provided to you. SCANA Pharmacy may use Your Protected Health Information to obtain payment for covered prescription drugs provided to you, or to assist another provider in obtaining payment for covered services it provides to you.

C. Health Care Operations. We may use and disclose Your Protected Health Information for Our health care operations. For example, We may use and disclose Your Protected Health Information to do business planning, arrange for medical review and conduct quality assessment and improvement activities. We also may disclose Your Protected Health Information to another health plan or a health care provider that has or had a relationship with you for it to conduct quality assessment and improvement activities; accreditation, certification, licensing, or credentialing activities; or for the purpose of health care fraud and abuse detection or compliance — for example, for

the other health plan to perform case management or evaluate health care provider performance, or for the health care provider to evaluate the outcomes of treatments or conduct training programs to improve health care skills.

D. To Business Associates. We may contract with individuals or entities known as Business Associates to perform various functions on Our behalf or to provide certain types of services. In order to perform these functions or to provide these services, Business Associates will receive, create, maintain, transmit, use and/or disclose Your Protected Health Information, but only after they agree in writing with us to implement appropriate safeguards regarding Your Protected Health Information. For example, We may disclose Your Protected Health Information to a Business Associate to administer claims or to provide support services, such as utilization management, pharmacy benefit management or subrogation, but only after the Business Associate enters into a Business Associate Agreement with Us. Business Associates are required to comply with HIPAA requirements to safeguard Your Protected Health Information.

E. To Comply with the Law. We may use and disclose Your Protected Health Information to the extent required to comply with applicable law.

F. Disclosures to the Health Plan Sponsor. We may disclose Your Protected Health Information to certain employees or other Individuals under the control of the Plan Sponsor as necessary for them to carry out the Plan Sponsor’s responsibilities to administer Plan payment and health care operations activities.

G. Health-Related Communications. We may contact you to give you information about health-related benefits and services that may be of interest to you. We may also contact you to provide appointment or refill reminders or information about treatment alternatives or other health-related benefits and services that may be useful to you.

H. Public Health Activities. As required by law, We may disclose Your Protected Health Information to public health authorities for purposes related to: preventing or controlling disease, injury or disability; reporting births and deaths; notifying people of recalls of products they may be using; reporting child abuse or neglect (only if you agree or when required by law); reporting domestic violence (only if you agree or when required by law); reporting to the Food and Drug Administration problems with products and reactions to medications; and reporting disease or infection exposure.

I. Health Oversight Activities.

J. Judicial and Administrative Proceedings. We may disclose Your Protected Health Information in the course of a judicial or administrative proceeding in response to a subpoena, discovery request or legal order or other lawful process, but only if efforts have been made to tell you about the request or to obtain an order protecting the requested information.

K. Law Enforcement Officials. We may disclose Your Protected Health Information to the police or other law enforcement officials as required by law or in compliance with a court order or other process authorized by law.

L. Health or Safety. We may disclose Your Protected Health Information to prevent or lessen a serious and imminent threat to the health or safety of an Individual or the public.

M. Organ and Tissue Donation. If you are an organ donor, We may release Your Protected Health Information to organizations that handle organ procurement or organ, eye or tissue transplantation or to an organ donation bank, as necessary to facilitate organ or tissue donation and transplantation.

N. Specialized Government Functions. We may disclose Your Protected Health Information to units of the government with special functions, such as the U.S. military or the U.S. Department of State.

O. Workers’ Compensation. We may disclose Your Protected Health Information as necessary to comply with workers’ compensation laws.

P. Research. We may disclose Your Protected Health Information to researchers when:

1. the individual identifiers have been removed; or,

Your Benefits. Your Choice.28

V. Other DisclosuresA. Personal Representatives. We will disclose Your Protected Health

Information to individuals authorized by you, or to an individual designated as your personal representative, attorney-in-fact, etc., so long as you provide us with a written notice/authorization and any supporting documents (i.e., power of attorney). Note: Under the HIPAA Privacy Rule, We do not have to disclose information to a personal representative if We have reasonable belief that:

1. you have been, or may be, subject to domestic violence, abuse or neglect by such person;

2. treating such person as your personal representative could endanger you; or,

3. in the exercise of professional judgment, it is not in your best interest to treat the person as your personal representative.

B. Authorizations. Other uses or disclosures of Your Protected Health Information not described above will only be made with your written authorization. You may revoke your written authorization at any time, so long as the revocation is in writing. Once We receive your written revocation, it will only be effective for future uses and disclosures. It will not be effective for any information that may have been used or disclosed in reliance upon the written authorization and prior to receiving your written revocation.

We will obtain a written authorization for any use or disclosure of psychotherapy notes, except:

1. to carry out the following treatment, payment, or health care operations: use by the originator of the psychotherapy notes for treatment; use or disclosure by the covered entity for its own training programs in which students, trainees, or practitioners in mental health learn under supervision to practice or improve their skills in group, joint, family, or individual counseling; or use or disclosure by the covered entity to defend itself in a legal action or other proceeding brought by the individual; and

2. a use or disclosure that is: required by the Secretary of the United States Department of Health and Human Services when the Secretary is investigating or determining the Plan’s compliance with the HIPAA privacy rule; permitted by law; for health oversight with respect to the oversight of the originator of the psychotherapy notes; to a coroner or medical examiner for the purpose of identifying a decedent; or to avert a serious threat to health or safety.

Please note that We do not use Your Protected Health Information for marketing or fundraising efforts. We do not sell Your Protected Health Information. We do not use or disclose Your Protected Health Information that is genetic information for underwriting purposes as prohibited by the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (GINA) of 2008.

VI. Your Individual RightsA. Right to Inspect and Copy Your Protected Health Information.

You may request access to Our records that contain Your Protected Health Information in order to inspect and request copies of the records. If Your Protected Health Information is maintained or used in an “electronic health record”, you may obtain a copy of the information in an electronic format and direct the copied information to be transmitted to another individual or organization. Under limited circumstances, We may deny you access to a portion of your records. If you desire access to your records, please obtain a record request form from the Privacy Office and submit the completed form to the Privacy Office. If you request copies, We reserve the right to charge you copying and mailing costs.

We may deny your request to inspect and copy in certain limited circumstances. If you are denied access to your medical information, you may request that the denial be reviewed by submitting a written request to the Privacy Office at the address below.

B. Right to Request Amendment of Your Records. You have the right to request that We amend Your Protected Health Information that you believe is incorrect or incomplete. To make such a request, please obtain an amendment request form from the Privacy Office and submit the completed form, including the reason for the amendment, to the Privacy Office. We may deny your request for amendment if it is not in writing or does not include a reason to support the request. In addition, We may deny your request if you ask Us to amend information that:

1. is not part of the medical information kept by or for Us;

2. was not created by Us, unless the person or entity that created the information is no longer available to make the amendment;

3. is not part of the information that you would be permitted to inspect and copy; or,

4. is already accurate and complete.

If We deny your request, you have the right to file a statement of disagreement with Us and any future disclosures of the disputed information will include your statement.

C. Right to Receive An Accounting of Disclosures. You have the right to request an “accounting” of certain disclosures of Your Protected Health Information. The accounting will not include:

1. disclosures for purposes of treatment, payment or health care operations (except to the extent required by law, if the Plan maintains Your Protected Health Information as an electronic health record);

2. disclosures made to you;

Page 31: SCANA Corporation 2017 Benefits...SCANA reserves the right at will to change or terminate any of the benefits offered by the Plan, or the Plan itself, as allowed by applicable law.

Your Benefits. Your Choice. 29

3. disclosures made pursuant to your authorization;

4. disclosures made to friends or family in your presence or because of an emergency;

5. disclosures for national security purposes; and,

6. disclosures incidental to otherwise permissible disclosures.

To request this list of accounting of disclosures, you must submit your request in writing to the Privacy Office. Your request must state a time period of not longer than six years and may not include dates before April 14, 2003. Your request should indicate in what form you want the list (for example, paper or electronic). The first list you request within a 12-month period will be provided free of charge. For additional lists, We may charge you for the costs of providing the list. We will notify you of the cost involved and you may choose to withdraw or modify your request at that time before any costs are incurred.

D. Right to Request Additional Restrictions. You may request restrictions on Our use and disclosure of Your Protected Health Information. For example, you could ask that We not use or disclose information about a surgery you had or a prescription drug you take. While We will consider requests for additional restrictions carefully, We are not required to agree to a requested restriction unless your request is to restrict Our disclosure of Your Protected Health Information to a health plan when such information would be used for health care operations or payment, the disclosure is not otherwise required by law, and Your Protected Health Information relates solely to a health care item or service paid for entirely out of pocket by you (or a person other than the Plan on your behalf). If you wish to request additional restrictions, please obtain a request form from the Privacy Office and submit the completed form to the Privacy Office. You will be given a written response.

E. Right to Receive Confidential Communications. We will accommodate any reasonable request for you to receive Your Protected Health Information by alternative means of communication or at alternative locations. Your request must specify how or where you wish to be contacted. Please note that in certain situations, such as eligibility and enrollment information, the Plan (but not the SCANA Pharmacy) is obliged to communicate directly with the employee rather than a dependent unless the request clearly states that disclosure of that information to the employee could endanger you.

F. Right to Receive Paper Copy of this Notice. Upon request, you may obtain a paper copy of this Notice, even if you agreed to receive such notice electronically. You may obtain a copy of this Notice at the “Health, Wealth, and Career” Web page on the SCANA Intranet site or you may contact the Privacy Office at the address below.

G. Right to Receive Notification. You are entitled to receive notice from Us if the confidentiality of any of Your Protected Health Information maintained in an unsecured form is compromised.

H. For Further Information; Complaints. If you desire further information about your privacy rights, are concerned that the Plan or SCANA Pharmacy has violated your privacy rights or disagree with a decision that We made about access to Your Protected Health Information, you may contact the Plan’s Privacy Office. You may also file a written complaint with the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Upon request, the Privacy Office will provide you with the correct address for the Secretary. The Plan will not retaliate against you if you file a complaint with it or the Secretary.

VII. Effective Date and Duration of This Notice

A. Effective Date. This Notice is effective on September 9, 2013.2

B. Right to Change Terms of this Notice. We may change the terms of this Notice at any time. If We change this Notice, We may make the new notice terms effective for all of Your Protected Health Information that We maintain, including any information created or received prior to issuing the new notice. If We change this Notice, We will send the new notice to you if you are then covered by the Plan. You also may obtain any new notice by contacting the Privacy Office.

C. Limitation on Application of Notice. This Notice does not apply to information that does not identify an Individual and with respect to which there is no reasonable basis to believe that the information can be used to identify an Individual. In addition, the Plan may use or disclose “summary health information” to the Plan Sponsor for its purposes of obtaining premium bids (although the Plan will not use or disclose genetic information for this purpose) or modifying, amending or terminating the Plan. Summary health information is information that summarizes claims history, claims expenses or types of claims experienced by Individuals for whom the Plan Sponsor provides benefits under the Plan and from which the Individual identifying information, except for five-digit zip codes, has been deleted. The Plan and Plan Sponsor also may use or disclose eligibility and enrollment information without your Authorization.

Your eligible Dependents include the following. For your non-spouse who meets one or more of the criteria below, dependent status applies regardless of whether coverage is available through another employer and regardless of student or marital status:

3. Your child who is 26 years of age or older, is primarily supported by you, and is incapable of self-sustaining employment because of a mental or physical disability. You should provide proof of the child’s condition and dependence to the SCANA Benefits Team within 31 days after the child’s 26th birthday. During the next two years, the Plan may, from time to time, ask for proof of continuation of the condition and dependence. After that, the Plan may require proof no more than once a year.

A child will be considered placed for adoption when you become legally obligated to support that child, totally or partially, prior to that child’s adoption being finalized. If a child placed for adoption is not adopted, all health coverage ceases when the placement ends, and will not be continued.

Page 45: SCANA Corporation 2017 Benefits...SCANA reserves the right at will to change or terminate any of the benefits offered by the Plan, or the Plan itself, as allowed by applicable law.

Your Benefits. Your Choice. 43

Benefits: The items or services covered by your health insurance plan.

Claim: A request for payment that you or your health care provider submits to your health insurance company after you receive services.

Coinsurance: Your share of the costs for a covered health care service, calculated as a percentage. You pay coinsurance plus any deductibles you owe. For example, say your health plan’s allowed amount for an office visit is $100 and you’ve met your deductible. Your coinsurance payment of 20 percent would be $20. Your health plan pays the rest of the allowed amount.

Deductible: The amount you pay for services received before your health plan begins to pay. For example, if your deductible is $1,000, your health plan will not pay for covered services until you’ve met the $1,000 deductible. After that, your health plan will pay for all covered services until the end of that benefit year.

Dependent: A child, spouse or other family member covered by a subscriber’s health plan. For example, an employer- sponsored health plan may cover the employee (subscriber), plus the employee’s spouse and their children (dependents).

Facility: The location where you receive health care services. For example, a medical facility could be a doctor’s office or a hospital.

Network: The facilities, providers and suppliers your health plan contracts with to provide health care services. You will typically pay less for services received in network versus out of network.

Out of pocket: These are your costs for medical care expenses that aren’t reimbursed by insurance. Out-of-pocket costs include deductibles, coinsurance and copayments for covered services plus all costs for services that aren’t covered.

Subscriber: The person who enrolls in a health plan. There is only one subscriber per health plan. The subscriber can add eligible dependents to a family health plan.

Preauthorization: A decision that a service or type of treatment is medically necessary. Certain services require preauthorization before you receive them, except in an emergency. You may also hear this referred to as precertification or prior authorization.

Premium: The amount you pay for your health plan, usually biweekly or monthly.

Preventive services: Routine health care that includes screenings, checkups and counseling to prevent illnesses or other health problems.

Provider: This can refer to the medical professional who delivers care or the location where you receive health care services. For example, your provider could be a doctor, specialist, nurse practitioner or hospital.

Primary care physician (PCP): The main doctor and prima-ry contact for your health care services. Your PCP coordinates care if you need to see other doctors or medical specialists.

Radiology: Procedures such as X-rays, ultrasounds and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) that are used to detect medical conditions.

Specialist: A doctor or health care professional who focuses on a specific area of medicine. For example, pediatricians, dermatologists and cardiologists are specialists.

Sometimes health care lingo can be confusing. But it’s important to understand your

health benefits and how they work. Here are some common terms to help.

Helpful terms: Words commonly used in health care

Page 46: SCANA Corporation 2017 Benefits...SCANA reserves the right at will to change or terminate any of the benefits offered by the Plan, or the Plan itself, as allowed by applicable law.

Your Benefits. Your Choice.44

Spousal coverage is available only if the SCANA participant’s spouse does not have access to employer-sponsored group health care through his or her former or current employer.

Access to sponsored health care

What does access to sponsored health care mean? Access means that your spouse has the ability to receive health care through a former or current employer, or through a self-employed plan offered to all employees of the company.

Access does not include

• Individual health care plans your spouse purchases as a self-employed person.

• Plans available through membership in a trade or professional organization

Some common examples

Spouse has access to employer-sponsored care Spouse is a teacher and has access to the state’s health plan. You would not be able to cover him/her under SCANA’s plan.

Self-employed spouses who have/or do not have medical plans in their businesses Spouse is a freelance nurse who works for a hospital and is not offered a group medical plan by the hospital. You would be able to cover him/her under SCANA’s plan.

Spouse is a self-employed home builder who employs 12 people and offers a group medical plan to them but elects SCANA coverage You would not be able to cover him/her under SCANA’s plan.

Spouse has access to Medicare or TRICARE For Life Spouse is retired from the Army and has access to TRICARE For Life. You would be able to cover him/her under SCANA’s plan.

Professional associations that offer access to coverage Spouse works as a commercial artist and can purchase medical insurance through a national art guild, of which she is a member. You would be able to cover him/her under SCANA’s plan.

Spousal coverage

If you are a SCANA employee on SCANA’s medical plan and are electing to provide medical coverage for your spouse under SCANA’s health care plan, you will be required to certify that your spouse does not have access to employer-sponsored group medical coverage.

Providing false or misleading information related to this provision may result in loss of coverage under this Plan for you and your dependents retroactive to the date you provided the false or misleading information. You may also be required to repay any amounts paid by the Plan for you and your dependent(s) since you provided the false or misleading information, or if greater, the company share of the premium.
