Below are the copay amounts . For detailed information , view the prescription drug coverage summary . To view the prescription website, click here . Prescription Drug Tier Retail Copay (30-day supply) Mail-Order Copay (90-day supply) Generic $10 $20 Brand Drugs, Formulary $30 $60 Brand Drugs, Nonformulary $50 $100 Certain prescription drugs are subject to prior authorization requirements, quantity level limits, or other management programs to ensure that these medications are being used in a safe and effective manner, and to help both you and the health plan control costs . If you are taking a prescription drug in one of these drug classes, you may receive a letter from Highmark advising you of any additional requirements with which you or your medical provider may need to comply. Managed Rx Coverage Program The managed prescription drug coverage (MRxC) program consists of online edits that encourage the safe and effective use of targeted medications to meet the clinical needs of members. To better manage the rising cost of these medications, the MRxC program also promotes the use of lower cost brand and generic medications. Many of the criteria are automated to reduce the administrative burden on physicians and to reduce member disruption. Managed Prior Authorization Program Certain medications will require prior authorization to ensure the medical necessity and appropriateness of the prescription order as defined by Highmark prior authorization policies. The member’s prescriber must obtain authorization from the Plan, prior to dispensing the medication by a retail pharmacy or through mail order, if applicable, otherwise the medication will not be covered by the Plan. Step Edit Program Generic medications can reduce prescription cost and increase medication adherence while providing the same benefits as the brand name medication. This policy defines the criteria under which coverage for a brand name medication will be considered when generic products are available within the same therapeu tic class. Medications targeted in program are used to treat acid reflux, cholesterol, and depression. Specialty Medication information If you or a covered family member need(s) to take a specialty medication, you will need to obtain the prescription from Accredo , a mail -order pharmacy provider solely focused on specialty medications. Accredo has negotiated with Highmark to provide the deepest discounts on specialty medications, which can average $5,000 or more in cost per month. Additionally, this vendor offers a dedicated care coordinator to provide support to patients. For additional questions or concerns, contact Accredo at 1-888-692-8110. What is a specialty medication?

IF YOU OR A DEPENDENT (S) DO USE YOUR CARDS, YOU WILL BE CHARGED. 7 Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) Available to full -time permanent employees and permanent part -time employees who work at least 50% time. Flexible spending accounts (FSAs) which are governed by IRS Code, allow employees to have income withheld from their paychecks before taxes for eventual reimbursement of certain medical and d ay care expenses. Important Plan Notes • FSA is an annual election (January 1 - December 31) and must be elected each year. If you are a new employee electing the plan mid- year, the amount elected will be spread out over the remaining pays of the calendar year. • While both plans are considered an FSA, the main difference between Health Care FSA and Day Care FSA is how the plan is used. o The Health Care FSA is for all of your eligible dependents (you, your spouse, and your federal tax dependents) medical, dental, vision, or prescription expenses. o The Day Care FSA is for eligible dependents (age 1 2 and under) day care, summer camp, or elder care expenses. • The State System offers a carryover for the Health Care FSA, which permits participants to rollover a limited amount of unused Health Care FSA funds into the following calendar year (see Carryover Provision below for details on limit s). Any remaining balances exceeding the carryover limit will be forfeited. There is no carryover for the Day Care FSA. • Your entire election for Health Care FSA is available to you at the beginning of the year to pay for qualifying expenses. Day Care FSA funds are available to you as you contribute to the plan. Health Care FSA Day Care FSA You contribute money from your paycheck on a pre- tax basis and get reimbursed from your FSA account as you incur eligible expenses. The Health Care FSA is for you, your spouse, and your federal tax dependents on your out - of-pocket medical, dental, vision, or prescription expenses not paid by insurance. Maximum Election for 202 6 - $3,300 See Carryover Information Below • Copays for Prescriptions or Doctor Office Visits • Dental Care or Braces • Eyeglasses, Contact Lenses, or Laser Vision Correction • Eligible Over -the-Counter Items Your entire health care FSA election amount is immediately available to you at the beginning of the year to pay for qualifying expenses . A welcome money saver for today’s working parents. It allows you to set aside pre- tax money for eligible dependents (age 12 and under) day care expenses so you can work. Maximum Election for 202 6 - $7,500 No Carryover to the next plan year. • Day Care • Summer Camp • Before/After School Programs • Elder Care Day Care FSA funds are available to you as contributions are made to the account. Unlike a Health Care FSA, the entire maximum annual amount is not available during the plan year, but rather after your payroll deductions are received. 8 Carryover Provision Your unused health care FSA dollars can be carried over into the next plan year up to the maximum amounts: o 2025 into 2026 - $640 o 2026 into 2027 - $660 The carryover provision does not apply to the Day Care FSA. Along with the carryover provision, State System employees can submit expenses that were incurred in the previous plan year in the first three months of the following plan year (called a run- out period). HSA Reminder The State System does not offer an HSA plan but if your spouse is enrolled in an HSA plan offered by their employer, this may impact your FSA enrollment. A health savings account (HSA) is available to an eligible individual who has high deductible health coverage as long as the individual has no other impermissible health coverage. A general -purpose FSA is impermissible and renders an individual ineligible to make contributions to an HSA even when it’s their spouse enrolled in a general -purpose FSA. Annual Enrollment The FSA plan requires annual enrollment. Even if you enrolled in an FSA in the current year , you must annually elect to participate in subsequent years. Visit the FSA website and review the FSA Handbook for more information about flexible spending accounts, including a list of eligible expenses and an interactive contribution and tax -savings calculator.

Current employees can find information on their plan at www.passhe.edu/retirement . Eligibility Enrollment in the retirement program is required, effective the first day of employment as a permanent full- time or part -time employee. Temporary employees must enroll in the retirement program once they have worked 750 hours in a calendar year. Newly eligible employees have 30 days from their eligibility date to decide which retirement plan is best for them, the Alternative Retirement Plan (ARP) or the State Employees’ Retirement System (SERS). If you do not select a retirement plan within 30 days, you will automatically be enrolled in the SERS Class A5 hybrid plan. Once enrolled in a retirement plan, that enrollment is irrevocable, meaning you must remain in that retirement plan for the duration of your employment, even if you leave employment with the State System and return to work later. View the summary of information below and additional information at www.passhe.edu/retirement . Plan Employee Contribution Employer Contribution Alternative Retirement Plan 5% 9.29% SERS Class A5 Hybrid Plan 8.25% 2.25% + Pension Fund Calculation* SERS Class A6 Hybrid Plan 7.5% 2% + Pension Fund Calculation* SERS Class 40 – Investment Plan 7.5% 3.5% *The pension plan employer contribution is calculated each year based on assets and liabilities of SERS pension fund. Alternative Retirement Plan (ARP) The ARP is a defined contribution plan. Your retirement income is determined by your account balance at the time of retirement, which is comprised of your employee contributions (5% of salary), the employer contributions (9.29% of salary), and any earnings based on the performance of your investments. Participants are 100% vested from their date of enrollment, which means from the date the monies are deposited into your ARP account, they are yours to keep. If you were to leave employment, regardless of how long you were employed, the entire investment account balance belongs to you. The ARP account is also portable, meaning if you leave employment before retirement, you can rollover those monies into a new employer’s retirement plan, or into a different retirement account such as an IRA. Employees contribute 5% of their pay on a pre- tax basis each pay period, while the State System contributes almost twice that amount - 9.29% as the employer contribution each pay period. Employee 5% Employer 9.29% Campus Police There are a few exceptions related to campus police including patrol officer, police specialist, police supervisor, police chief, or assistant police chief. View the campus police retirement page for additional information. 12 State Employees’ Retirement Plan (SERS) Under the SERS umbrella, there are three different plan options. If you select SERS as your group retirement plan, you are automatically enrolled in the Class A5 hybrid plan. After enrollment, you will be contacted by SERS and given 45 days to make a one- time election to switch to Class A6 or the Straight Defined Contribution/Investment Plan. If you are enrolled in Class A5 or A6 hybrid plans, your retirement benefit comes from two plans: • Pension plan that features guaranteed monthly payments and; • Investment plan where the amount of money is based on contributions by you and your employer, along with personal investment choices and the markets. If you are enrolled in the Straight Defined Contribution plan your account balance at the time of retirement is comprised of your employee contributions, employer contributions, and any earning based on the performance of your investments. Participants do not become vested for the employer contributions until you have worked 10 years for the pension plan and 3 years for the investment plan. That means if you’re no longer employed by the State System before fully vested, you only have the right to your contributions and interest. Y ou also do not have a right to monthly pension payments. Voluntary Retirement Plans The State System offers two additional options to save and invest extra money for retirement. Whether you are supplementing your group retirement plan or you are not eligible to enroll in the group retirement plan, the voluntary retirement plans are available to all employees upon their date of hire. Employees can choose to contribute up to the annual IRS limits in both plans. There are no employer contributions for these plans. To view the IRS limits and differences between the 457(b) and 403(b) plans, view the Voluntary Plan Comparison. Deferred Compensation – 457(b) Plan>> Tax Sheltered Annuity (TSA) - 403(b) Plan>> The 457 (b) Plan offers a simple, flexible way for you to save for retirement.

Qualifying Events If you experience a qualifying life event you have the opportunity to add or remove dependents from your coverage or make other changes to your benefit elections. To make changes outside of open enrollment, employees must complete and submit the enrollment/change form to your human resources office within 60 days of the event occurring. Below are some of the more common examples. Removing Dependents You are required to contact your human resources office and remove a dependent that is no longer eligible for State System coverage under the following situations: − Covered child attains age 26 (unless disabled) removed automatically based on child date of birth − Divorce (removal of spouse and stepchildren). − Termination of a domestic partnership (removal of partner and children of partner). − Death of a dependent. Adding Eligible Dependents You may add a dependent for State System coverage due to a qualifying life event. You must notify your human resources office and submit the enrollment change within 60 days of the qualifying life event. − You gain a dependent through birth or adoption. − You get married. − Your dependent loses coverage under another employer’s plan. − Your dependent loses eligibility for coverage in a Medicare plan, a Medicaid plan, or a state children’s health insurance program. Other Plan Enrollment Changes You must notify your human resources office and submit the enrollment change within 60 days of the qualifying life event. − You lose coverage under your spouse’s plan. − You move, either to an area outside of your current plan’s service area, or to an area where a different plan option is available. 2. Open Enrollment – Every Spring You may add/drop dependents during annual open enrollment. You will need to provide original documentation that verifies your dependent’s eligibility for State System coverage, e.g., birth certificate, marriage certificate, and court - approved adoption order. For more on documentation requirements, view the Dependent Documentation Attachment . Instructions for Open Enrollment (Enroll or Make Changes) Through Self Service Workplace, FIORI All changes must be made online using the self -service workplace, Fiori . • Go to FIORI: ( https://workplace.passhe.edu) and Sign in. • On the tiles , select My Benefits Enrollment . • Follow the enrollment directions here. • Review and retain the email confirmation to verify open enrollment changes. If you do not receive an email confirmation of open enrollment changes, contact your human resources office prior to the end of open enrollment. For additional questions or information, please contact your university human resources office. Note: - You must submit any required original eligibility documentation prior to your dependent being enrolled in the health plan. - Select “Help Documents” for detailed instructions on how to utilize ESS for Open Enrollment (SSHE Health Enrollment). More about adult children to age 26. • Student status is not required. • Your adult children can be married. If married, the coverage does not extend to your adult children’s spouse, or to your adult children’s own children. • Your adult children do not have to live with you, be financially dependent on you, or be claimed as a dependent on your tax return. • The extension of coverage of adult children to age 26 only applies to the State System Group Health plan for active employees. For individuals enrolled in a State System Annuitant Health Plan, these plans cover children up to age 19, or up to age 25 if a full- time student . 16 Dependent Documentation Attachment - The State System requires verification of health care program eligibility both for dependents of newly hired and current employees as a result of a life event change (i.e., marriage, birth or adoption of a child, etc.) or during open enrollment. This is to ensure that dependents covered under the State System Health Care Programs and the Supplemental Benefits Program meet the eligibility requirements for coverage. - N ew employees will have 60 days from their date of hire to provide satisfactory documentation. - Current employees will have 60 days from the date they add a new dependent as a result of a life event change to provide satisfactory documentation. - For dependents added during open enrollment, the required documentation must be provided by the end of the open enrollment period for the dependent’s coverage to be effective. - All documentation must be provided to the university human resources office. If required documentation is not provided within 60 days (or the end of open enrollment) , the dependent(s) will be removed from coverage retroactively to the date of their enrollment. COBRA benefits will not be offered as the dependent was not deemed eligible for coverage. If claims were incurred for an ineligible dependent, restitution will be required. The following chart has been prepared to provide you with types of documentation that are acceptable for dependent verification and possible resources for documentation. You must provide an original document or a certified copy to your university human resources office when verifying your dependent(s). The university human resources office will review the documentation provided to determine dependent eligibility. You will retain the original documents and co pies will not be maintained in the human resources office.

This includes patrol officer, police specialist, police supervisor, police chief, or assistant police chief. More information can be found at: • Campus Police Retirement Page • Police Retirement Plan Comparison Police Retirement Plan Options : Defined Contribution Plan - Alternative Retirement Plan (ARP) The ARP is a defined contribution plan. Your retirement income is determined by your account balance at the time of retirement, which is comprised of your employee contributions (5% of salary), the employer contributions (9.29% of salary), and any earnings based on the performance of your investments. Participants are 100% vested from their date of enrollment, which means from the date the monies are deposited into your ARP account, they are yours to keep. If you were to leave employment, regardless of how long you were employed, the entire investment account balance belongs to you. The ARP account is also portable, meaning if you leave employment before retirement, you can rollover those monies into a new employer’s retirement plan, or into a different retirement account such as an IRA. Employees contribute 5% of their pay on a pre- tax basis each pay period, while the State System contributes almost twice that amount - 9.29% as the employer contribut ion each pay period. Defined Benefit Plan S tate Employees’ Retirement Plan (SERS) Retirement income is based on a fixed formula that considers your years of service, age, and final average salary. The retirement benefit amount for vested participants is guaranteed and not affected by the investment earnings of the plan. Participants are 100% vested after 10 years of service (5 years if enrolled prior to January 1st, 2011). Visit the SERS website for more information. Certain law enforcement and security positions are exempt from the defined contribution and hybrid retirement plans. As a result, employees in those positions can enter the defined benefit pension plan. If you became a SERS member on or after 1/1/19 as an employee in one of the law enforcement or security positions, you can choose the A3 class of service with the option to elect the A4 class within the first 45 days of SERS membership. If you later switch jobs transferring out of a law enforcement or security position, or you leave service and later return to work for a SERS -participating employer in a non- law enforcement or security position, you will automatically enter the hybrid plan A5 class of service with the option to choose the hybrid plan A6 class or the straight defined contribution plan within the first 45 days of SERS membership. If you formerly were a member of the defined contribution or hybrid retirement plans and then you switched into one of the law enforcement or security positions listed here, and then later switch out of that law enforcement or security position, you will automatically return to your prior hybrid or defined contribution plan. Plans Available: SERS Class A 3 Employees contribute 6.25% of gross salary. Employees receive a 2% multiplier in the pension formula.
