Medical Plans LifeBridge Health offers two medical plan options - administered by CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield (CareFirst). Each plan offers comprehensive health care benefits, including free preventive care services and coverage for prescription drugs. Here’s how the plans compare.

Important Considerations • You may use in- or out-of-network providers. You will always pay the least if you use the LifeBridge Provider Network. Using a provider in the CareFirst network, instead of an out-of-network provider, will also help you save. • You must meet an annual deductible before the medical plan begins to cover a portion of the cost for most care. • Deductibles and Out-of-Pocket Maximums cross apply. Anything spent in either the LifeBridge Health Network, CareFirst In-Network or Out-of-Network levels will accumulate toward all deductibles and out-of-pocket maximums for the year. • Out-of-pocket maximums apply to both plans. This is the maximum amount you will pay for health care costs in a calendar year. Your bi-weekly contribution rates will continue. • You may be required to obtain pre-authorization from the plan prior to receiving certain services. If either you or your provider does not pre-authorize care when necessary, you may not have coverage for that service. 5

Health Savings Account A Health Savings Account (HSA) provides additional options for paying medical expenses with tax-free savings. LifeBridge contributes to your account to help offset some of your eligible expenses. Account Type Health Savings Account (HSA) Eligibility You must be enrolled in the Health Saver Plan with HSA and meet these requirements: • Not be claimed as a dependent on another person’s tax return. • Not be covered under another medical plan that is not HSA-eligible • Not be enrolled in Medicare Part A or B, or be in receipt of VA medical or prescription benefits within the previous three months. Your contributions You contribute on a pretax basis and you can change how much you contribute from each paycheck. The IRS maximum annual contribution is $3,500 for individual coverage and $7,000 for family coverage. If you are age 55 or older, you may make a “catch-up” contribution of $1,000. Company’s contributions LifeBridge Health contributes to your account (the first half is paid in January and the second half is paid in July as long as you are still enrolled in the plan). • $700 for individual coverage • $1,400 for family coverage The combination of your contribution and the company contribution cannot exceed the IRS maximum for 2020 of $3,550 for individual coverage and $7,100 for family coverage. Eligible expenses Medical, dental, vision and prescription drug expenses incurred by you and your covered family members. If you also wish to enroll in a Health Care FSA, you will only be eligible for a Limited-Purpose Health Care Flexible Spending Account (FSA). Using your account Use the debit card linked to your HSA or submit a claim form to cover the expenses, or pay the expenses out of pocket and save your HSA money for future health care expenses. Remaining Funds Any money left in your HSA at the end of the year will roll over to the next year — you’ll never lose your HSA dollars. If you leave LifeBridge Health or retire, you can take your HSA with you so you can continue to pay and save for eligible health care expenses. Fees There is a monthly fee of $2 for the HSA. As long as you are enrolled in the Health Saver Plan, at the end of the year, LifeBridge Health reimburses the fee for you. Setting Up Your HSA To set up your HSA, you must complete the Customer Identification Program (CIP) process within 90 days of enrolling. BNY Mellon will verify the information you provide, which is similar to the information you must provide when setting up any bank account. If additional information is needed, BNY Mellon will contact you via U.S. mail, and you will have up to 90 days to respond. Once you pass the CIP process, you will receive a debit card from WageWorks in the mail. To view your balance, submit claims and more, set up a WageWorks account at www.wageworks.com. Remember to set up your beneficiary directly with WageWorks. 8

Dependent Verification Process You are required to complete the Dependent Verification Process for any dependent or spouse that will be newly covered with LifeBridge Health Benefits. If you are not sure if you have the required dependent verification on file, please contact Employee Services. Your dependent(s) will not have coverage until you complete this process. As part of our commitment to control health care costs, LifeBridge Health (LBH) is taking steps to ensure that only eligible dependents are covered under our medical, dental and/or vision plans. To accomplish this, LBH has implemented a dependent verification program. This process is intended to ensure that each dependent enrolled in the LBH medical, dental and/or vision plans is accurately listed and eligible for coverage. There are three (3) steps to the verification program clearly detailed below. Please complete all 3 steps for the dependents you enrolled in benefits, if applicable. 1. Make sure that you provide legible copies of all required documentation. 2. Write your name and employee ID number on each piece of documentation. 3.

Glossary of Terms After-tax – The contributions you make for benefits such as Life and AD&D insurance and Disability insurance are subject to Social Security tax, federal income tax and, in most cases, state and local income taxes. Calendar Year Maximum – The benefit amount paid each year for each family member enrolled in the dental plan. Coinsurance – The sharing of cost between you and the plan. For example, 80 percent coinsurance means the plan covers 80 percent of the cost of service after a deductible is met, and you will be responsible for the remaining 20 percent of the cost. Copay – A fixed amount (for example $15) you pay for a covered health care service, usually when you receive the service. The amount can vary by the type of covered health care service. Deductible – The amount you have to pay for covered health care services before your health plan begins to pay. Elimination Period – The time period between the beginning of an injury or illness and receiving benefit payments from the insurer. Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) – FSAs allow you to pay for eligible health care and dependent care expenses using tax- free dollars. The Health Care Account can be used to pay for services not covered by your medical, dental or vision plan such as copayments, coinsurance deductibles, prescription expenses, lab exams and tests, contact lenses, and eyeglasses. The Dependent Care Account is used to pay for day care expenses associated with caring for elder or child dependents that are necessary for you or your spouse to work or attend school full-time. The money in the account is subject to the “use it or lose it” rule which means you must spend the money in the account before the end of the plan year. Health Savings Account (HSA) – An HSA is a personal health care account for those enrolled in an HDHP. You may use your HSA to pay for qualified medical expenses such as doctor’s office visits, hospital care, prescription drugs, dental care, and vision care. You can use the money in your HSA to pay for qualified medical expenses now, or in the future. Your HSA can be used for your expenses and those of your spouse and dependents, even if they are not covered by the HDHP. High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP) – A qualified High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP) is defined by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) as a plan with a minimum annual deductible and a maximum out-of-pocket limit. These minimums and maximums are determined annually and are subject to change. In-network – A designated list of health care providers (doctors, dentists, etc.) with whom the health insurance provider has negotiated special rates. Using in-network providers lowers the cost of services for you and the Company. LifeBridge Health (LBH) Network – LifeBridge Health Provider Network Out-of-network – Health care providers that are not in the Plan’s network and who have not negotiated discounted rates. The cost of services provided by out-of-network providers is much higher for you and the Company. Additional deductibles and higher coinsurance will apply. Out-of-pocket maximum – The most you will pay of your own money before services are 100 percent covered by the medical plan. Your annual deductible is included in your out-of-pocket maximum. Pretax – The contributions you make for medical, dental, vision, HSA, FSA health care spending and FSA dependent care spending are not subject to Social Security tax, federal income tax or, in most cases, state and local income taxes. Reasonable & Customary Charges (R&C) – Prevailing market rates for services provided by health care professionals within a certain area for certain procedures. Reasonable and Customary rates apply to out-of-network charges. 18
