3 Health Risk Questionnaire What is the Health Risk Questionnaire (HRQ)? The HRQ is designed by health care experts to help you assess your health and identify possible health risks before they become serious health conditions. Individual results of the HRQ are confidential and are available only to you. Your completed HRQ will not affect your eligibility or benefit payments, but completing and returning it can add credit to your Health Reimbursement Account (HRA). Where do I complete the HRQ? The easiest place is the Internet just go online to and register. You can then complete the entire HRQ in about 10 minutes. If you do not have Internet access, call us at UFCW ( ) between 7 am and 7 pm Pacific Standard Time, Monday through Friday, to take the HRQ by phone or to request a paper questionnaire to be mailed to your home address. How long will the HRQ take? About 10 minutes. How much of a credit can I receive? Up to $200 credit if you complete the HRQ as an eligible member covered by the Trust Fund Up to $50 credit if your eligible spouse or domestic partner also completes the HRQ What questions will be asked? You are asked simple health questions about such factors as your lifestyle, diet, and exercise choices. The goal of the HRQ is to assist you in zeroing in on the aspects of your health that you can change for the better, and to give you the means to make these changes. Why should I complete the HRQ? Two good reasons. Reason No. 1: Your Health. The HRQ is designed by healthcare experts to help you assess your health and identify possible health risks before they become serious health conditions. The HRQ lets you take stock of what s going on with your health and what you can do specifically to live a more healthy lifestyle.
4 Reason No. 2: Your Reward. The Trust Fund is taking a good-faith step on your behalf: credit to your HRA account! This means a credit deposited directly into your Health Reimbursement Account (HRA) just for completing the HRQ: Up to $200 credit if you complete the HRQ as an eligible member covered by the Trust Fund An additional credit of up to $50 credit if your eligible spouse or domestic partner also completes the HRQ The Trust Fund believes in you and wants you to succeed in fulfilling your healthy potential. The HRQ is provided by MedExpert, a trusted partner that has helped thousands of UFCW members improve their healthcare. In short, this HRQ is an ideal platform from which to launch a healthier you! Plus, participants can compare their 2011 answers with answers from previous years to determine how their overall health has changed, making the HRQ an even more useful health tool. Health Reimbursement Account What is a Health Reimbursement Account (HRA) and how does it work? An HRA is an account from which funds are used to pay your portion of health care expenses not paid by the PPO Medical Plan, such as deductibles and coinsurance, and to reimburse you for prescription drug copays. The Trust Fund office administers the HRA and allocates money to each eligible member s HRA annually. In most cases, any remaining balance in your HRA as of Dec. 31 carries over to the next plan year if you remain an eligible PPO member. Your HRA is not a bank account and does not accrue interest. You cannot make deposits to it or withdraw funds from it. How does the HRQ work with the HRA? If you are an eligible member and complete the HRQ, a credit amount is added to your HRA. An additional credit is added to your HRA if your eligible spouse or domestic partner completes his or her own HRQ. Is the HRA contribution for doing the HRQ $200 for everyone, or does it matter whether they have Premier, Ultra or Standard? It DOES depend on which plan you have. See the following for specific information: Premier participant: $200 spouse: $50 Ultra participant: $150 spouse: $50 Standard participant: $150 spouse: $0
5 When will I see my HRA credit? The appropriate credit will automatically be applied within 30 days from the time you complete the HRQ. The credit will appear on the next Explanation of Benefit (EOB) you receive from the Trust Fund when a claim has been processed. How will I know my HRA balance? Your HRA balance will be included on every Explanation of Benefits (EOB) you receive from the Trust Fund office. The balance stated on the EOB will reflect the balance as of the date that claim was processed. If you call the Trust Fund office ( ) for your HRA balance, you will be told your HRA balance as of the date and time of your phone call. Is there any limit as to how long I can keep my HRA or the amount that can accumulate? At this time, there is no limit on how long you can keep your HRA (as long as you remain an eligible PPO member), nor is there a maximum amount that can accumulate in your HRA. How are funds in my HRA accessed? When the Trust Fund receives medical claims for you or your eligible family members, it automatically uses your available HRA funding to pay your deductible and coinsurance directly to a PPO provider and to send reimbursement for prescription drug copays directly to you approximately three weeks after you incur a copay. You do not have to submit a request for payment of your deductible or coinsurance to be made from your HRA or to be reimbursed for your prescription drug copays. If your benefits are assigned to a non-ppo provider, the reimbursement will be sent directly to the non-ppo provider. If you call the Trust Fund office ( ) for your HRA balance, you will be told your HRA balance as of the date and time of your phone call. How are claims paid using my HRA? When you use a PPO provider, your provider will submit claims to the Trust Fund on your behalf. The medical claim will be processed and eligible medical expenses, including your medical deductible and medical coinsurance, will be paid from your HRA until your HRA is exhausted. The Trust Fund will send payment directly to the provider who submits the claim. After your HRA is exhausted, you will be responsible for paying your providers for your portion of the cost of your care until you meet the remainder of your calendar-year deductible and your out-of-pocket maximum coinsurance. If you use a non-ppo provider who does not file a claim on your behalf, you will be required to pay the provider and submit a claim to the Trust Fund office for reimbursement of the covered amount.
6 The Trust Fund will automatically reimburse you from your available HRA funds for eligible prescription drug copays. After your HRA is exhausted, you will have to pay your prescription drug copays for the remainder of the year. Can I choose which claims my HRA will be used for? No, you cannot exclude certain services that you do not want your HRA to cover the funds will be applied to costs as they occur. For more information, you can talk to the Trust Fund office at What types of expenses cannot be paid from the HRA? Your HRA cannot be used for premium payments (such as COBRA or retiree health and welfare), expenses that are excluded from the medical and prescription drug programs (such as mental health treatment by a non-ppo provider), cosmetic procedures, or for non-medical items such as the dental deductible or eyeglasses. It cannot be used to pay expenses that exceed annual PPO benefit limits. (For example: If your chiropractic benefit has a $500 annual benefit limit and your expenses exceed the limit, your HRA funds cannot be used to pay additional chiropractic expenses.) Your HRA cannot be used to pay dental or vision expenses. I cover my spouse and my child under my benefits. Does each of them have an HRA? No, an HRA is only established for the covered member; however, claims for eligible dependent(s) will be processed using funds from your HRA. If I m a Premier member and switch to an HMO, will I still have an HRA? No. HRA funding is not available to HMO members. If there is a remaining balance in your HRA when your HMO coverage takes effect, it can only be used to pay expenses incurred before your PPO coverage ended. You will forfeit any remaining HRA funding that is not used to pay PPO claims. What happens if I first become eligible for Standard benefits after January 1 of any year? Your HRA will be established on the following January 1. No pro-rata amount is allocated for the partial year during which your eligibility for Standard benefits was established. New Standard employees who become eligible on Feb. 1 or later will continue to be covered under their existing plan benefits until Dec. 31. On the following Jan. 1, they will be covered under the new PPO plan benefits, which include an HRA.
7 Eligibility Who is eligible? All Trust Fund PPO members and their eligible spouses or domestic partners who are covered under a ratified 2007 CBA and meet the eligibility criteria for benefits as of Jan. 1, This also includes members who qualify for coverage during a leave such as family medical leave (FMLA) or an eligibility extension because of disability. What is the cutoff date? The HRQ must be completed by March 1, I have a pre-existing medical condition. Can I still get the HRA credit? Yes. As long as you complete the HRQ, you are eligible for the credit. This is a health awareness measure designed to increase your knowledge of your personal risk factors it is not a judgment of your health or lifestyle. Having a pre-existing condition will not affect your or your spouse/domestic partner s eligibility for coverage under this Plan. What happens if I have a family status change after my HRA has been funded for the year? When applicable, additional HRA and HRQ funding amounts will be pro-rated from the date of the family status change. You will not lose funding if your family status changes from a higher HRA benefit amount to a lower benefit amount. For example, if your HRA funding is based on family coverage at the beginning of the year, you would not lose that HRA funding if you divorce and move to a single coverage level later in the year. If I have a break in service, will I lose my HRA? In general, if you return to employment without a change to your previous status and benefits, you will also retain your associated HRA benefits. If you return to employment and are considered a new hire, any previously accumulated HRA amount is forfeited. What if I don t want to participate? The program is voluntary. If you choose not to participate, simply do not complete the HRQ. However, keep in mind that you will miss out on receiving the credit to your HRA (up to $250) unless you complete the HRQ.
