MLB League-Wide Insurance Program
Plan and Summary Plan Description
APPENDIX A-3
Minor League Front Offices HDHP – Option #3
The program generally provides 80% of all reasonable and customary physician and hospital
costs (as defined in the benefit booklet) for in-network covered expenses after you satisfy the
$1,500 individual / $3,000 family in-network deductible. The program covers 100% of certain
in-network preventive care services and 100% of certain in-network physician office visits after
a $20 copayment, without regard to the deductible. The program also provides 60% of all
reasonable and customary physician and hospital costs (as defined in the benefit booklet) for out-
of-network expenses after you satisfy the $3,000 individual / $6,000 family out-of-network
deductible. There is an annual $2,000 individual and $4,000 family out-of-pocket limit for in-
network covered services and an annual $4,000 individual and $8,000 family out-of-pocket limit
for out-of-network covered services. The out-of-pocket limit, under this benefit option, refers to
the specified dollar amount of coinsurance you incur for covered services. Amounts paid toward
your deductible do not count toward the out-of-pocket limit under this benefit option. When you
reach the out-of-pocket limit, the program begins to pay 100% of all covered expenses with the
exception of copayments, including prescription drug copayments described below. In addition,
there is an annual $6,350 individual and $12,700 family total out-of-pocket maximum for in-
network covered services. The total out-of-pocket maximum is the most you pay for in-network
covered services during the policy year. Amounts paid toward your deductible count toward the
total out-of-pocket maximum. When you reach the total out-of-pocket maximum, the program
begins to pay 100% of all covered expenses, including any applicable copayments and covered
prescription drug expenses. There is no total out-of-pocket maximum for out-of-network
benefits.
The program also includes a prescription drug program that covers certain prescriptions filled at
in-network pharmacies. Prescriptions filled at an out-of-network pharmacy are not covered. The
applicable pharmacy network is the Highmark National Plus Pharmacy Network. There is a
separate annual $150 pharmacy deductible per member, per calendar year, limited to three
members per family or an equivalent aggregate total ($450). After satisfying the annual
pharmacy deductible, the program will cover certain prescription drugs as follows:
Retail Drugs - Covers only generic drugs when available up to the greater of a 34-day supply or
100 units, subject to the following copayments:
• $20 generic copayment
• $30 brand copayment
• $60 non-formulary brand copayment
Maintenance Drugs through Mail Order - Covers only generic drugs when available up to a 90-
day supply, subject to the following copayments:
• $40 generic copayment
• $60 brand copayment
• $120 non-formulary brand copayment
Prescriptions purchased at an out-of-network pharmacy are not covered.
