REQUIRED NOTICES Newborn and Mothers’ Health Protection Act • Group health plans and health insurance issuers generally may not, under federal law restrict benefits for any hospital length of stay in connection with childbirth for the mother or newborn child to less than 48 hours following vaginal delivery, or less than 96 hours following a cesarean section. However, federal law generally does not prohibit the mother’s or newborn’s attending provider, after consulting with the mother, from discharging the mother or newborn earlier than 48 hours (or 96 hours as applicable). In any case, plans and issuers may not, under federal law, require that a provider obtain authorization from the plan or the issuer for prescribing a length of stay not in excess of 48 hours (or 96 hours). Women’s Health and Cancer Rights Act • In October 1998, Congress enacted the Women’s Health and Cancer Rights Act of 1998. This notice explains some important provisions of the Act. Please review this information carefully. As specified in the Women’s Health and Cancer Rights Act, a plan participant or beneficiary who elects breast reconstruction in connection with a covered mastectomy is also entitled to the following benefits: 1. All stages of reconstruction of the breast on which the mastectomy has been performed: 2. Surgery and reconstruction of the other breast to produce a symmetrical appearance; and 3. Prostheses and treatment of physical complications of the mastectomy , including lymphedemas. Health plans must provide coverage of mastectomy related benefits in a manner to determine in consultation with the attending physician and the patient. Coverage for breast reconstruction and related services may be subject to deductibles and insurance amounts that are consistent with those that apply to other benefits under the plan. 15
REQUIRED CHIP NOTICE 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). If you live in one of the following states, you may be eligible for assistance paying your employer health plan premiums. The following list of states is current as of July 31, 2020.

HIPAA Notice HIPAA Privacy Notices HIPAA requires group health plans to provide a notice of current privacy practices regarding protected personal health information (PHI) to enrolled participants. All employers must distribute HIPAA Privacy Notices if the plan is self-funded or if the plan is fully- insured and the employer has access to PHI. If the employer maintains a benefits website, the HIPAA Privacy Notice must be included on the website. The HIPAA Privacy Notice must be written in plain language and must describe three things: (1) the use and disclosures of PHI that may be made by the group health plan; (2) plan participants’ privacy rights; and (3) the group health plan’s legal responsibilities with respect to the PHI. The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has developed three different model Privacy Notices for health plans to choose from: booklet version, layered version, and full-page version. More information can be found at: https://www.hhs.gov/hipaa/for- professionals/privacy/guidance/privacy-practices-for-protected-health-information/index.html Link to OneDigital’s privacy policy: https://www.onedigital.com/privacy-policy/ Model Special Enrollment Notice If 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 this plan 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 the appropriate time period that applies under the plan after you 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 the appropriate time period that applies under the plan after the marriage, birth, adoption, or placement for adoption. To request special enrollment or obtain more information, contact the appropriate plan representative. More information can be found at: https://www.dol.gov/agencies/ebsa/about-ebsa/our-activities/resource- center/faqs/hipaa-compliance For additional information on your employer’s privacy policy, please contact your HR department. 19
