My Benefits

All active full-time (0.8 to 1.0 FTE) and part-time (0.5 - 0.79 FTE) team members are eligible for benefits with FMOLHS.

Health coverage is one of the most important benefits for you and your family. Health benefits provide significant value through support for and protection against potentially large financial expenses, as well as covering preventive care. We are committed to the health and wellness of our team members by offering comprehensive health care plans. The health plan you choose will be in place until the new year, unless you have a qualifying family status change. Our health insurance plans are administered by Blue Cross Blue Shield.

There are three health plan options available to team members:

• The EPO Plan
• The PPO Plan
• HDHSA Plan

Each of these plans are designed to provide you with coverage options that best suit you and your family’s healthcare needs. To learn more about each plan, including premium pricing and coverage details, please reference the Team Member Guide to Benefits. 

Just Premium

Through a program called “Just Premium”, we offer team members who apply and qualify for financial assistance based on total household income the opportunity to reduce their health plan premiums. Based on the team members total household income (adjusted gross income) and the number of dependents you claim on your Federal Individual Income Tax Return, team members may be eligible to receive a higher subsidy to improve affordability and access to coverage. Details about the just premium application process are communicated each open enrollment period. To apply for Just Premium, download and complete the application and submit it to justpremium@fmolhs.org.

Medication Copay Savings and Personal Service Offered Through RxONE

RxONE is our FMOLHS-owned, in-house pharmacy, where you will receive reduced copays for prescriptions including mail order/90-day prescriptions and specialty medications. In addition to discounts, RxONE offers team members personal service through their in-store or curbside delivery options, faster fill times, immunizations and ease of access to our pharmacists. Take advantage of these cost savings and personalized service offers by selecting RxONE as your pharmacy of choice. Find a Location here.

FMOLHS has partnered with our Pharmacy Benefit Manager, ESI and SaveOnSP, to provide a copay assistance benefit for certain specialty medications. Under this copay assistance benefit, certain specialty prescription drugs on the formulary have been classified as non-essential health benefits (NEHBs). An NEHB classification does not mean these drugs are unimportant to a member. Members who are prescribed a specialty medication must enroll in the copay assistance program with SaveOn and are required to fill the specialty medication at RxONE. If a member does not enroll in the copay assistance program they will be responsible for the full required coinsurance for the NEHB drugs even after their out-of-pocket maximum has been satisfied. Any coinsurance paid for these medications will not apply to any deductible under the plan or their out-of-pocket maximum.

The most recent medications on the formulary included in the benefit change can be found on the ESI website.

SaveOnSP will contact a member directly to enroll in the benefit if they are prescribed one of the included specialty medications. If a member has questions, they can contact SaveOnSP at (800) 683-1074.

We offer our team members the ability to set aside money through payroll deductions on a pre-tax basis to a Medical Care Flexible Spending Account (FSA). This account allows you to pay for out-of-pocket health care expenses, such as deductibles, copays, coinsurance, prescribed medications, dental expenses, vision expenses, Lasik and more. By paying for these expenses with pre-tax dollars, you reduce the amount of your taxable income and increase your take-home pay. Any dollars in an FSA account at the end of the calendar year must be used or you will forfeit those dollars.

For those team members enrolled in a Health Savings Account (HSA), a Limited use Flexible Spending Account (LUFSA) is available to use for reimbursement of eligible dental and vision expenses. If you enroll in the HSA account and also enroll in the Medical FSA, the Medical FSA automatically becomes a Limited use FSA.

You can set aside up to the IRS established limit each calendar year in payroll deductions.

Effective January 1, 2024, FMOLHS will be transitioning from Payflex to Voya Financial as the administrator for the Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA/LUFSA). As part of this transition, your 2023 account balance will transfer to Voya.

For those team members enrolled in the High Deductible Health Savings Account medical plan and who meet certain other requirements for eligibility, we offer the ability to take charge of your health care spending with a Health Savings Account (HSA). Contributions made to an HSA are tax free and withdrawals for qualified medical expenses are tax free. Your HSA funds can be used for qualified expenses, including those of your spouse and/or taxable dependent(s), even if they are not covered by your plan. Voya is the administrator of the HSA and will issue a debit card which gives you direct access to your account balance which allows you to use the debit card to pay for qualifying medical expenses.

For those team members who enroll in the plan, there are two ways to fund your account. We will provide an annual employer contribution to your HSA account in the amount of $750 for employee only coverage or $1,500 for family coverage. In addition to the employer contribution, you can make your own contributions to your HSA account up to the IRS limit. For 2024, individual contributions are limited to $3,400 for employee only and $6,800 for family coverage.

Effective January 1, 2024, FMOLHS will be transitioning from Payflex to Voya Financial as the administrator for the Health Savings Account (HSA). As part of this transition, you will have the option to transfer your current assets to an account at Voya.

Proper dental care plays an important role in your overall health. We offer dental plans that are designed to encourage preventive treatment, allowing team members to achieve oral health while striving to minimize dental costs. The dental plans are administered by Delta Dental.

The dental plans allow you to visit any licensed dentist, but by taking advantage of the nationwide PPO network you will maximize the value of the plan. You can search the Delta Dental PPO network for a dentist near you by visiting the Delta Dental Dentist Directory.

There are two options for Dental Coverage:

• The Basic Dental Option – This plan offers reduced semi-monthly premiums, has less coverage for major dental services and a reduced maximum limit. It does not include orthodontia coverage. For those of you with basic dental needs throughout the calendar year, this plan may be better.
• The Buy Up Dental Option – While this dental plan has higher semi-monthly premiums, it offers higher coverage for major dental services, includes orthodontia coverage, and has a higher annual maximum limit. This plan may be better suited for those with moderate to major dental service needs throughout the calendar year.

The health of your eyes is an indicator of overall health. Regular eye exams can detect diseases like glaucoma, diabetes, and loss of sight. Vision benefits allow for access to quality vision care. To ensure that you and your family will get the vision care you need, FMOLHS offers two comprehensive vision benefits plans provided by EyeMed. Providers in the EyeMed Vision Care network offer the lowest out-of-pocket costs, and your copayments will be paid directly to the provider. To find a network provider, log on to eyemed.com and select provider locator. If you have questions about your vision benefits, please contact EyeMed at (866) 804-0982.

The financial health of our team members is very important to us. That is why we invest in our team members futures by offering a 403(b) retirement plan, administered by Lincoln Financial Group, that automatically provides a core contribution equal to 2% of pay into each team member’s account. In addition to the core contribution, FMOLHS also provides a 50% matching contribution for each dollar an eligible team member contributes to the 403(b) retirement plan, up to the first 6% (3% maximum match). This means that you could receive up to a 5% contribution from FMOLHS! To receive this annual employer contribution, you must have worked at least 1,000 hours in the calendar year and be employed on the last calendar day of the year.

Team members can join at any time once they become eligible. Their contribution will be automatically set at 4% of pay but they can change that at any time through the Lincoln Financial website.

The FMOLHS customized network (EPO and PPO Tier 1 and 2) is designed to drive care to providers employed by the health system or who are partners of the health system. By using providers and facilities in the FMOLHS customized network, we are helping to preserve the future of our organization and our mission. These providers are aligned with our high quality of care standards and are clinically integrated with our electronic medical record system allowing sharing of data between providers.

Today, services provided by any of the impacted providers are considered in network under the EPO Plan and Tier 2 under the PPO and HDHSA Plans. Beginning January 1, 2024, they will be out of network (no coverage) under the EPO Plan and will be Tier 3 coverage for the PPO/HDHSA Plans. We encourage you to begin reviewing the FMOLHS network if you wish to change providers.
