                   How the Maximum Rollover Account (MRA) Works - $1000 Annual Max


                                Claims                            Rollover Amount
                               Threshold     Rollover Amount    (W/ Network Bonus)   MRA Limit


                                 $500             $250                 $350            $1,000




                   Sample Member Experience
                   ► Year 1 (2012)           MRA: $0         Paid Claims: $400 (some out-of-network)
                   The paid claims do not exceed the $500 threshold for the Plan Annual Maximum of $1000. Therefore,
                   $250 is added to the MRA for Year 2.
                   ► Year 2 (2013)           MRA: $250         Paid Claims: $900
                   The paid claims exceed the threshold of $500. Therefore, no additional amount is added to the MRA
                   for Year 3 (2013). None of the MRA is used.
                   ► Year 3 (2014)           MRA: $250         Paid Claims: $1100
                   The member's Year 3 paid claims exceed the $1000 annual maximum; therefore, $100 of the MRA is
                   used. No additional amount is added to the member’s MRA because Year 3 paid claims exceeded the
                   threshold of $500.
                   ► Year 4 (2015)           MRA: $150         Paid Claims: $400 (all in-network)
                   The member’s MRA for the next year is now $500. Year 4 paid claims did not exceed the threshold
                   and $350 was added to the account since the member used network providers.
                   ► Year 5 (2016)           MRA: $500         Paid Claims: $400 (all in-network)
                   The member’s MRA for the next year is now $850, meaning they are covered for $1850 next year
                   ($1000 plan maximum plus the $850 MRA built from two years of claims below the threshold
                   submitted by network providers).
