Note: Under this contract, PIC will not pay more than it would pay as the primary plan. The Effect of the Benefits of this Plan: When this plan is secondary, it may reduce its benefits at the time of processing, so that the total benefits paid or provided by all plans for each claim are not more than 100% of total allowable expenses for such claim. The reduction in this plan’s benefits is equal to the difference between: 1. The benefit payments that this plan would have paid had it been the primary plan; and 2. The benefit payments that this plan actually paid or provided. When the benefits of this plan are reduced as described above, each benefit is reduced in proportion to any applicable limit, such as the deductible of this plan.

COB shall in no way restrict or impede the rendering of services provided by Health Plan. At the Member’s request, Health Plan will provider or arrange for covered services and then seek coordination with a Primary Plan. 1. Coordination with This Plan's Benefits. Health Plan may coordinate benefits payable or may recover the reasonable cash value of services it has provided when the sum of: a. The benefits that would be payable for, or the reasonable cash value of, the services provided as Allowable Expenses by Health Plan in the absence of this COB provision; and b. The benefits that would be payable for Allowable Expenses under one or more of the other Plans, in the absence of provisions with a purpose like that of this COB provision, whether or not a claim thereon is made; exceeds Allowable Expenses in a Claim Determination Period. In that case, the Health Plan benefits will be coordinated, or the reasonable cash value of any services provided by Health Plan may be recovered, from the Primary Plan, so that they and the benefits payable under the other Plans do not total more than the Allowable Expenses.
