MEDICAL INSURANCE



        Kaiser HMO Medical Plan
        With the Kaiser Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) plan, services must be obtained at a Kaiser facility, except in the
        case of an emergency. Kaiser integrates all elements of healthcare such as physicians, medical centers, pharmacy and
        administration in one convenient facility.

                       records and much more!

        HMO Medical Plan
        With the UnitedHealthcare Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) plan, you must choose a Primary Care Physician (PCP)
        or medical group. All of your care must be directed through your PCP or medical group. Any specialty care you need will
        be coordinated through your PCP and will generally require a referral or authorization. You will receive benefits only if you
        use the doctors, clinics and hospitals that belong to the medical group in which you are enrolled, except in the case of an
        emergency.

        PPO Medical Plan

        With  the UnitedHealthcare  Preferred  Provider Organization  (PPO)  plan, you  have the freedom  to choose  your doctor
        without the approval of a Primary Care Physician (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.

        HSA Medical Plan

        The UnitedHealthcare Health Savings Account (HSA) plan offers the same features as the PPO medical plan with two
        important differences: it combines a high deductible PPO medical plan (HDHP) with a special, tax-qualified savings account.
        You may use your HSA funds to pay for your annual deductible and current medical and prescription drug expenses or
        save toward future expenses. If you choose to enroll in this plan, you are encouraged to open an HSA account through
        our preferred vendor, HSA Bank. Burnham will contribute a monthly deposit into the HSA account in the amounts shown
        in the table below. In addition to the company contributions, you may elect to make contributions into your account up to
        the IRS maximums.
