CLAIM FILING AND PROVIDER PAYMENTS This section provides information regarding how a member may file a claim for a covered healthcare service and how we pay providers for a covered healthcare service. How to File a Claim Network providers file claims on your behalf. Non-network providers may or may not file claims on your behalf. If a non-network provider does not file a claim on your behalf, you will need to file it yourself. To file a claim, please send us the provider’s itemized bill, and include the following information: • your name; • your member ID number; • the name, address, and telephone number of the provider who performed the service; • date and description of the service; and • charge for that service. Please send your claim to the address listed in the Contact Information section. Claims must be filed within one calendar year of the date you receive a covered healthcare service. Claims submitted after this deadline are not eligible for reimbursement. This timeframe does not apply if you are legally incapacitated. How Network Providers Are Paid We pay network providers directly for covered healthcare services. Network providers agree not to bill, charge, collect a deposit from, or seek reimbursement from you for a covered healthcare service, except for your share under the plan. When you see a network provider, you are responsible for a share of the cost of covered healthcare services. Your share includes the deductible, if one applies, and the copayment, as listed in the Summary of Medical Benefits. The covered healthcare service may also have a benefit limit, which caps the amount we will reimburse the provider for that service. You will be responsible for any amount over the benefit limit, up to the allowance. Your provider may request these payments at the time of service, or may bill you after the service. If you do not pay your provider, the provider may decline to provide current or future services or may pursue payment from you, such as beginning collection proceedings. Some of our agreements with network providers include alternative payment methods such as incentives, risk-sharing, care coordination, value-based, capitation or similar payment methods. Your copayments are determined based on our allowance at the date the service is rendered. Your copayment may be more or less than the amount the network provider receives under these alternative payment methods. Your copayment will not be adjusted based on these alternative payment methods, or for any payment that is not calculated on an individual claim basis. Our contracts with providers may establish a payment allowance for multiple covered healthcare services, and we may apply a single copayment based on these arrangements. In these cases, you will typically be responsible for fewer copayments than if your share of the cost had been determined on a per service basis.
Claims Allocation and Handling Agreement General Clauses 16 and 17 of the Claims Allocation and Handling Agreement provide that claims between parties to it are limited to specified amounts unless the parties expressly contract otherwise.

How We Calculate Benefits Under These Rules When this plan is secondary, it may reduce its benefits so that the total benefits paid or provided by all plans are not more than the total allowable expenses. In determining the amount to be paid for any claim, the secondary plan will calculate the benefits it would have paid in the absence of other healthcare coverage and apply that calculated amount to any allowable expense under its plan that is unpaid by the primary plan. The secondary plan may then reduce its payment by the amount so that, when combined with the amount paid by the primary plan, the total benefits paid or provided by all plans for the claim do not exceed the total allowable expense for that claim. In addition, the secondary plan shall credit to its plan deductible any amounts it would have credited to its deductible in the absence of other healthcare coverage.
Entity Accounts Subject to Review A Preexisting Entity Account that has an account balance or value that exceeds $250,000 as of June 30, 2014, and a Preexisting Entity Account that does not exceed $250,000 as of June 30, 2014 but the account balance or value of which exceeds $1,000,000 as of the last day of 2015 or any subsequent calendar year, must be reviewed in accordance with the procedures set forth in paragraph D of this section.
How Are Distributions from a Xxxx XXX Taxed for Federal Income Tax Purposes Amounts distributed to you are generally excludable from your gross income if they (i) are paid after you attain age 59½, (ii) are made to your beneficiary after your death, (iii) are attributable to your becoming disabled, (iv) subject to various limits, the distribution is used to purchase a first home or, in limited cases, a second or subsequent home for you, your spouse, or you or your spouse’s grandchild or ancestor, or (v) are rolled over to another Xxxx XXX. Regardless of the foregoing, if you or your beneficiary receives a distribution within the five-taxable-year period starting with the beginning of the year to which your initial contribution to your Xxxx XXX applies, the earnings on your account are includable in taxable income. In addition, if you roll over (convert) funds to your Xxxx XXX from another individual retirement plan (such as a Traditional IRA or another Xxxx XXX into which amounts were rolled from a Traditional IRA), the portion of a distribution attributable to rolled-over amounts which exceeds the amounts taxed in connection with the conversion to a Xxxx XXX is includable in income (and subject to penalty tax) if it is distributed prior to the end of the five-tax-year period beginning with the start of the tax year during which the rollover occurred. An amount taxed in connection with a rollover is subject to a 10% penalty tax if it is distributed before the end of the five-tax-year period. As noted above, the five-year holding period requirement is measured from the beginning of the five-taxable-year period beginning with the first taxable year for which you (or your spouse) made a contribution to a Xxxx XXX on your behalf. Previously, the law required that a separate five-year holding period apply to regular Xxxx XXX contributions and to amounts contributed to a Xxxx XXX as a result of the rollover or conversion of a Traditional IRA. Even though the holding period requirement has been simplified, it may still be advisable to keep regular Xxxx XXX contributions and rollover/ conversion Xxxx XXX contributions in separate accounts. This is because amounts withdrawn from a rollover/conversion Xxxx XXX within five years of the rollover/conversion may be subject to a 10% penalty tax. As noted above, a distribution from a Xxxx XXX that complies with all of the distribution and holding period requirements is excludable from your gross income. If you receive a distribution from a Xxxx XXX that does not comply with these rules, the part of the distribution that constitutes a return of your contributions will not be included in your taxable income, and the portion that represents earnings will be includable in your income. For this purpose, certain ordering rules apply. Amounts distributed to you are treated as coming first from your non-deductible contributions. The next portion of a distribution is treated as coming from amounts which have been rolled over (converted) from any non-Xxxx IRAs in the order such amounts were rolled over. Any remaining amounts (including all earnings) are distributed last. Any portion of your distribution which does not meet the criteria for exclusion from gross income may also be subject to a 10% penalty tax. Note that to the extent a distribution would be taxable to you, neither you nor anyone else can qualify for capital gains treatment for amounts distributed from your account. Similarly, you are not entitled to the special five- or ten- year averaging rule for lump-sum distributions that may be available to persons receiving distributions from certain other types of retirement plans. Rather, the taxable portion of any distribution is taxed to you as ordinary income. Your Xxxx XXX is not subject to taxes on excess distributions or on excess amounts remaining in your account as of your date of death. You must indicate on your distribution request whether federal income taxes should be withheld on a distribution from a Xxxx XXX. If you do not make a withholding election, we will not withhold federal or state income tax. Note that, for federal tax purposes (for example, for purposes of applying the ordering rules described above), Xxxx IRAs are considered separately from Traditional IRAs.
