Medical Plans for 2013

Making sure you and your family have affordable, high quality health care is our primary objective; however, we do anticipate changes in the health care market and must also consider future cost projections.  Based on these factors, it is clear that we need to look at our health plans differently. While specific details of the 2013 benefit plans are not yet finalized, below is a snapshot of some of the changes you can expect to see for the coming year:

Two Medical Plans for 2013
Two medical plans will be offered for the 2013 plan year: a POS Plan (Point of Service Plan) and an HSA Plan (Health Savings Account Plan).

Emory is committed to helping you understand your plan options so that you can make an informed decision. You will begin receiving more communications about these two plan options starting in early August.

Wellness incentives
To encourage you to actively engage in your health and wellness, Emory will offer financial incentives for your participation in wellness activities, such as blood pressure and cholesterol screenings.  More details about this coming soon.

When it comes to your health care, we’re all in this together.  You can do your part by becoming a smart health care consumer.  Understand your medical plan options so you can make good decisions.
