The deductible is on a calendar year basis, from January 1, to December 31.
Yes, the same amount as the office visit co-payment when the lab work is being done by a different provider.
Yes, even if your doctor directs you toward the emergency room.
If performed in an office setting and billed with the office visit, then the co-pay would apply. Otherwise it may be subject to your deductible/out of pocket maximum
No, but you must see a contracted provider.
PPO – at a contracted provider, there is one office visit co-payment if plan has co-pay. Then charges are paid at the end of the pregnancy, billed on a global basis, subject to the plan deductible and coinsurance.
EPO – office visit co-pay for 1st prenatal visit, then hospital co-pay at the time of delivery.
Eligibility: An employee has 30 days from the date of birth to
add a newborn to the plan. The newborn would be covered under CEBT for the
first 30 days, in the absence of other coverage. If the child is
added to another plan, a completed Other Insurance form is needed, as well as
proof of the other coverage.
An employee who loses their coverage, unless due to gross misconduct, can continue on COBRA for up to 18 months at their own cost. Dependents losing coverage due to certain qualifying events (i.e. divorce, turning 26) are allowed to continue coverage for up to 36 months. CEBT is partnered with 24HourFlex as the COBRA adminstrator for CEBT products. For more information about COBRA, please click here
