Medical Benefits

• Aetna Choice POS II Plan
  

  This plan option pays 100% for most covered services after a co-payment of $20 or $30. There will be a payment limit for preferred care. The payment limit is the most you are required to pay out of your own pocket for covered expense in a calendar year. The preferred payment limit will be $2,000 for an individual and $4,000 for a family. After this limit is reached, the plan pays covered expenses at 100% for the rest of the calendar year. Provider referrals are not required for office visits and members are not required to designate a primary care physician. The POS II option also offers the flexibility of out-of-network benefits after the annual deductible ($800 individual/$1,600 family) has been satisfied. The plan will pay 60% after the deductible has been met for out of network services.
