2003 UMP Benefit Changes• Medical
– Developing three alternative approaches, all with the same overall employee impact
• Pharmacy– Legislative budget targets 10% reduction in
prescription costs
![Page 12: Public Employees Benefits Board](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070420/56815f92550346895dce9505/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
12
2003 UMP Benefit Changes• Approach #1 based on legislative budget
notes– 85% coinsurance for most services from preferred
providers (currently 90%)– Enrollee out-of-pocket limit is also increased
proportionally (currently $1,125 per year)• Concerns
– Higher coinsurance may discourage needed care
![Page 13: Public Employees Benefits Board](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070420/56815f92550346895dce9505/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
13
UMP Benefit Changes• Approach #2 - Leave coinsurance at 90% but
make other changes to achieve same premium impact– Evaluate possible out-of-state networks– Increase annual out-of-pocket limit, hospital
copayments, deductible, or other enrollee cost-sharing– Consider expanding services covered in full (i.e.
maintain or increase access to preventive care)• Concerns
– Impact on particular categoreis of enrollees, such as those with high medical costs
![Page 14: Public Employees Benefits Board](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070420/56815f92550346895dce9505/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
14
2003 UMP Benefit Changes• Approach #3 - Offer enrollees choice of two
UMP benefit designs– Higher premium choice would maintain current UMP
benefits– Lower premium choice would have higher deductible,
coinsurance, and other enrollee cost-sharing– Current PEBB risk adjustment process would be used
to mitigate “adverse selection”• Concerns
– Communication challenges– Enrollee understanding of plan choices
