PAGE 19 2022–2023 BENEFITS HEALTH SAVINGS ACCOUNT (HSA) If you enroll in a high deductible health plan (HDHP), you are eligible to open a health savings account with HealthEquity. An HSA is a personal savings account that lets you set aside pre-tax money from your paycheck to use on qualified medical expenses. Some examples of qualified expenses include deductibles and copays, doctor’s office visits, prescription drugs, vaccines and screenings, and more! For a complete list, visit learn2.healthequity.com/kairos/qme. Once you receive your debit card from HealthEquity, you’ll be able to use your account. New cards are issued only to first-time enrollees (or if an existing card expires). Since it’s your personal bank account, please contact HealthEquity if you need a replacement debit card.

PAGE 20 2022–2023 BENEFITS BASIC FLEXIBLE SPENDING ACCOUNT (FSA) Set aside pre-tax dollars for eligible health care and dependent care expenses in a flexible spending account (FSA) administered by BASIC.

HOWEVER, YOU ARE STILL ELIGIBLE TO ENROLL IN A DEPENDENT CARE ACCOUNT. HOW FLEXIBLE SPENDING ACCOUNTS WORK • You decide how much you want to contribute on an annual basis into one or both of the FSAs. • It’s a “use it or lose it” plan, meaning you must use the funds to pay for eligible expenses during the plan year, otherwise you will lose them. • Your FSA contributions are deducted from your paychecks on a pre-tax basis, in equal amounts each pay period. • Your election stays in effect for the entire plan year (July 1 through June 30). You may not increase, decrease, or cancel your contributions outside of the plan’s enrollment period, unless you have a qualified life status change (see page 6 for information about status changes). • You use your FSA contributions to pay for eligible expenses under the Medical Expense Reimbursement Account or Dependent Care Account. The IRS clearly defines eligible expenses, and only those that comply with the Internal Revenue Code are eligible for reimbursement. • You may not use the contributions you make to the Medical Expense Reimbursement Account to reimburse yourself for eligible expenses under the Dependent Care Account, or vice versa.

PAGE 24 2022–2023 BENEFITS BASIC LIFE AND AD&D INSURANCE The district provides eligible employees with basic term life and accidental death and dismemberment insurance coverage for each eligible employee who works a .75 or greater contract. Employees hired prior to 2009 who work between .5 and .74 receive a prorated level, commensurate with their contract. Eligible classified and certified employees are provided basic life coverage in the amount of $50,000. Administrative employees are provided their annual salary plus $50,000 to a maximum of $250,000. After you reach age 65, the policy amount is reduced by 35%, and then reduced again at age 70 by 50%. An accelerated death benefit is also available in the event of your terminal illness. You must designate a beneficiary at least 18 years of age for the basic life insurance benefit. To update your beneficiary information, you can do so in the iVisions system. SUPPLEMENTAL LIFE AND AD&D INSURANCE If eligible, you have the opportunity to purchase supplemental life insurance coverage for yourself and your eligible spouse and dependent children. You must elect supplemental life for yourself to be eligible for supplemental dependent coverage. Note: The amount of coverage, once elected, will not automatically reduce with age. However, the amount you pay out-of-pocket will increase as you age. SUPPLEMENTAL COVERAGE AMOUNTS YOU YOUR SPOUSE YOUR CHILDREN AVAILABLE $10,000–$500,000 in $10,000–$250,000 in Up to 15 days old: $1,000 AMOUNTS increments of $10,000 increments of $10,000 15 days to 26 years: Cannot exceed 5 times Cannot exceed the $10,000 your annual salary combined amount of your basic life and supplemental life benefits GUARANTEED $150,000 $30,000 $10,000 ISSUE AMOUNT GUARANTEED ISSUE AMOUNT The guaranteed issue amount, is a set amount of life insurance that is guaranteed to first time enrollees only. New plan enrollees do not require a statement of Health (SOH). Late entrants into the plan will require a SOH to be submitted before the life insurance is active. SOH is an application process that requires you to complete a form for your medical history in order to be approved for the life insurance amount requested. SOH is required for new enrollees enrolling above the guaranteed issue amount and for existing enrollees increasing their life insurance. Pay close attention during enrollment to determine if an SOH is needed. For questions, contact Kairos at 888.331.0222 or visit metlife.com
PAGE 25 2022–2023 BENEFITS SHORT-TERM DISABILITY INSURANCE Voluntary short-term disability coverage helps provide income protection for employees with unexpected health events, associated expenses, and possible time away from work due to a non-occupational injury or sickness. Eligible employees can elect to purchase voluntary short-term disability coverage. The plan provides benefits in the amounts of 40%, 50%, and 66.67% of your salary, up to a $1,154 weekly maximum benefit. Benefits are paid in the event you cannot work due to a covered non-occupational sickness or injury, for up to 25 weeks of continuous disability. This plan covers maternity the same as a sickness. Benefits begin following the plan’s 7-day elimination period. Benefits are paid in addition to accumulated sick leave—even when school is not in session—if you are unable to work. Your benefit will be offset by other income sources as defined by MetLife group policies. These sources include, but are not limited to, Social Security and state retirement systems. However, the minimum weekly benefit amount payable under the voluntary short-term disability policy cannot be lower than a $20 weekly benefit, regardless of the amount of income you receive from other sources. Income received from salary continuation or accumulated sick leave plans will not be deducted from your gross disability benefit. PRE-EXISTING CONDITION LIMITATIONS The policy does not cover an illness or accidental injury that arose in the three months prior to your plan effective date. In addition, to be eligible for coverage during pregnancy, your pregnancy must occur on or after the benefit effective date (e.g., July 1, 2022 if you are enrolling during open enrollment). IMPORTANT If you receive a salary increase, your short- term disability does not increase automatically. You may sign up for this coverage only during open enrollment, or as a new hire. You may not drop coverage until the next open enrollment period. For questions, contact MetLife at 877.638.7868 or visit metlife.com
