MEDICAL INSURANCE
Option 1 - HSA PPO (Choice Fund OAP)
The Health Savings Account (HSA) plan through Cigna combines a high deductible health plan (HDHP) with a special,
tax-qualified savings account. You may use your HSA funds to pay for current medical expenses or save toward future
medical expenses. You have the freedom to choose your doctor without the requirement of selecting a PCP and you may
self-refer to specialists. You may use a PPO provider whose negotiated rates provide richer levels of benefits with claim
forms filed by the providers. You may also obtain services using a non-network provider; however, you will be responsible
for the difference between the covered amount and the actual charges and you may be responsible for filing claims.
QSC will make an annual contribution toward your employee/family health savings account, funded biweekly. In addition to the company
contributions, you may elect to make contributions into your account up to the IRS maximums. See page 10 for additional information.
Option 2 - PPO (OAP)
With the Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) option through Cigna, you have the freedom to choose your doctor without using
a primary care physician (PCP) and you may self-refer to specialists. Similar to the HSA plan, you may use a PPO provider whose
negotiated rates provide richer levels of benefits with claim forms filed by the providers. You may also obtain services using a non-
network provider; however, you will be responsible for the difference between the covered amount and the actual charges and you
may be responsible for filing claims.
