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. 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. 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.
Processing of a Grievance It is recognized and accepted by the Union and the Employer that the processing of grievances as hereinafter provided is limited by the job duties and responsibilities of the employees and shall therefore be accomplished during normal working hours only when consistent with such employee duties and responsibilities. The aggrieved employee and a Union representative shall be allowed a reasonable amount of time without loss of pay when a grievance is investigated and presented to the Employer during normal working hours provided that the employee and the Union representative have notified and received the approval of the designated supervisor who has determined that such absence is reasonable and would not be detrimental to the work programs of the Employer.
Processing Grievances The grievant shall be granted reasonable time off with pay from regularly scheduled duty hours to process a grievance, provided that the time off will be devoted to the prompt and efficient investigation and handling of grievances, subject to the following: Neither a grievant nor a grievant's representative who is a Court employee shall suffer any lost pay for attending any regularly scheduled grievance hearing required by the procedure herein set forth. A. A grievant and a grievant's representative shall notify their supervisor as soon as possible of scheduled grievance hearings and of any changes in the time or date of scheduled hearings in which they must participate. B. In no event shall a grievant be represented by more than one Court employee at a grievance hearing.
Filing a Complaint If an employee believes that they have been harassed and/or discriminated against on the basis of any prohibited ground of discrimination, there are specific actions that may be taken to put a stop to it. First, request a stop of the unwanted behaviour. Inform the individual that is doing the harassing or the discriminating against you that the behaviour is unwanted and unwelcome. It is advisable to document the events, complete with times, dates, location, witnesses and details. However, it is also understood that some victims of discrimination or harassment are reluctant to confront their harasser or they may fear reprisals from the harasser, lack of support from their work group, or disbelief by their supervisor or others. The incident should be brought to the attention of your Supervisor and/or Committeeperson.

Proposed Policies and Procedures Regarding New Online Content and Functionality By October 31, 2017, the School will submit to OCR for its review and approval proposed policies and procedures (“the Plan for New Content”) to ensure that all new, newly-added, or modified online content and functionality will be accessible to people with disabilities as measured by conformance to the Benchmarks for Measuring Accessibility set forth above, except where doing so would impose a fundamental alteration or undue burden. a) When fundamental alteration or undue burden defenses apply, the Plan for New Content will require the School to provide equally effective alternative access. The Plan for New Content will require the School, in providing equally effective alternate access, to take any actions that do not result in a fundamental alteration or undue financial and administrative burdens, but nevertheless ensure that, to the maximum extent possible, individuals with disabilities receive the same benefits or services as their nondisabled peers. To provide equally effective alternate access, alternates are not required to produce the identical result or level of achievement for persons with and without disabilities, but must afford persons with disabilities equal opportunity to obtain the same result, to gain the same benefit, or to reach the same level of achievement, in the most integrated setting appropriate to the person’s needs. b) The Plan for New Content must include sufficient quality assurance procedures, backed by adequate personnel and financial resources, for full implementation. This provision also applies to the School’s online content and functionality developed by, maintained by, or offered through a third-party vendor or by using open sources. c) Within thirty (30) days of receiving OCR’s approval of the Plan for New Content, the School will officially adopt, and fully implement the amended policies and procedures.
