Your summary of benefits
Notes:
• This Summary of Benefits has been updated to comply with federal and state requirements, including
applicable provisions of the recently enacted federal health care reform laws. As we receive additional guidance
and clarification on the new health care reform laws from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services,
Department of Labor and Internal Revenue Service, we may be required to make additional changes to this
Summary of Benefits. This Summary of Benefits, as updated, is subject to the approval of the California
Department of Insurance and the California Department of Managed Health Care (as applicable).
• In addition to the benefits described in this summary, coverage may include additional benefits, depending
upon the member's home state. The benefits provided in this summary are subject to federal and California
laws. There are some states that require more generous benefits be provided to their residents, even if the
master policy was not issued in their state. If the member's state has such requirements, we will adjust the
benefits to meet the requirements.
• The family deductible and out-of-pocket maximum are non-embedded meaning the cost shares of all family
members apply to one shared family deductible and one shared family out-of-pocket maximum. The individual
deductible and individual out-of-pocket maximum only apply to individuals enrolled under single coverage.
• Pharmacy deductible and pharmacy out of pocket is combined with medical deductible and out-of-pocket.
• This Lumenos plan is an innovative type of coverage that allows a member to use a Health Savings Account to
pay for medical care. The member can spend the money in the HSA account the way the member wants on
medical care, prescription drugs and other qualified medical expenses. There are no copays or deductibles to
satisfy first. Unused dollars can be saved from year to year to reduce the amount the member may have to pay
in the future. If covered expenses exceed the member's available HSA dollars, the traditional health coverage is
available after a limited out-of-pocket amount is paid by the member.
• All medical services subject to a coinsurance are also subject to the annual medical deductible.
• Annual Out-of-Pocket Maximums includes deductible, copays, coinsurance and prescription drug.
• In network and out of network deductible and out of pocket maximum are exclusive of each other.
• Preventive Care Services includes physical exam, preventive screenings (including screenings for cancer, HPV,
diabetes, cholesterol, blood pressure, hearing and vision, immunization, health education, intervention services,
HIV testing) and additional preventive care for women provided for in the guidance supported by Health
Resources and Service Administration.
• For Medical Emergency care rendered by a Non-Participating Provider or Non-Contracting Hospital,
reimbursement is based on the reasonable and customary value. Members may be responsible for any amount
in excess of the reasonable and customary value.
• If your plan includes out of network benefit and you use a non-network provider, you are responsible for any
difference between the covered expense and the actual non-participating providers charge.
• Non-emergency, out-of-network air ambulance services are limited to Anthem maximum payment of $50,000
per trip.
• Certain services are subject to the utilization review program. Before scheduling services, the member must
make sure utilization review is obtained. If utilization review is not obtained, benefits may be reduced or not
paid, according to the plan.
• Certain types of physicians may not be represented in the PPO network in the state where the member
receives services. If such physician is not available in the service area, the member's copay is the same as for
PPO (with and without pre-notification, if applicable). Member is responsible for applicable copays,
deductibles and charges which exceed covered expense.

How much does a therapist visit cost?
The cost should be similar to what you’d pay for an office
therapy visit, depending on your benefits, copay or
coinsurance. You'll see what you owe before you start a visit
and any cost is charged to your credit card. The cost is the
same no matter when you have the visit — whether it’s a
weekday, the weekend, evening or a holiday.
How do l decide which therapist to see?
What do you do when you need care right away, but
it’s not an emergency?
The last place anyone wants to sit and wait hour after hour
is the emergency room (ER). And it can cost you more than
you might need to pay if you could get care from somewhere
else quickly.
You should know you have more options than just the ER.
First call your primary care doctor
He or she is the doctor you see for most care. When you call
this doctor, he or she will tell you if you should make an
appointment with the doctor or go to the ER. Your doctor may
even be able to give you advice on the phone or see you if it’s
later in the day or a weekend, so it’s important you try to
contact him or her first. Your doctor might even suggest you
go to a retail health clinic or urgent care.
But when you can’t see your doctor or if your doctor’s office is
closed, you can choose an option below. It often takes less
time than the ER and costs about the same as a doctor visit.
Plus, most are open weeknights and weekends.
Choose a care option that could save time and money
Retail health clinic — This is a clinic staffed by health care
experts who give basic health care services to “walk-in”
patients. Most often it is in a major pharmacy or retail store.
Walk-in doctor’s office - A doctor’s office that doesn’t require
you to be an existing patient or have an appointment. Can
handle routine care and common family illnesses.
Urgent care center — Doctors who treat conditions that
should be looked at right away but aren’t as severe as
emergencies. Can often do X-rays, lab tests and stitches.
Pick a care facility and call before you go
Ask:
o What are your hours?
o Tell them what has happened (for example, “I have a cut”
or “I twisted my ankle”). Then ask, do you have services
that I need?
o What age range do you treat?
o Are you a provider that is part of my health plan network?
What you pay
$ 100 -$ 250 *
$ 10- $40
ER visit
Retail health clinic, Walk in doctor’s office,
Urgent care center
*Average health plan copays. For many members, deductibles and coinsurance may apply, which can make an
even greater difference in the cost between an emergency room and alternate site of care.
When to use the ER
Always call 911 or go the ER if you think you could put your
health at serious risk by delaying care.
Why not be prepared now?

Dental Maximum Rollover ®
Save Your Unused Claims Dollars For When You Need Them Most
Guardian will roll over a portion of your unused annual maximum into your personal Maximum Rollover Account
(MRA). If you reach your Plan Annual Maximum in future years, you can use money from your MRA. To qualify for an
MRA, you must have a paid claim (not just a visit) and must not have exceeded the paid claims threshold during the
benefit year. Your MRA may not exceed the MRA limit. You can view your annual MRA statement detailing your
account and those of your dependents on www.GuardianAnytime.com.
Please note that actual maximum limitations and thresholds vary by plan. Your plan may vary from the one used below
as an example to illustrate how the Maximum Rollover functions.

* If a plan has a different annual maximum for PPO benefits vs. non-PPO benefits, ($1500 PPO/$1000 non-PPO for example) the non-PPO maximum determines the Maximum
Rollover plan.
Here’s how the benefits work:
YEAR ONE: Jane starts with a $1,500 Plan Annual Maximum. She
submits $150 in dental claims. Since she did not reach the $700
Threshold, she receives a $350 rollover that will be applied to Year
Two.
YEAR TWO: Jane now has an increased Plan Annual Maximum of
$1,850. This year, she submits $50 in claims and receives an
additional $350 rollover added to her Plan Annual Maximum.
YEAR THREE: Jane now has an increased Plan Annual Maximum of
$2,200. This year, she submits $2,100 in claims. All claims are paid
due to the amount accumulated in her Maximum Rollover Account.
YEAR FOUR: Jane’s Plan Annual Maximum is $1,600 ($1,500 Plan
Annual Maximum + $100 remaining in her Maximum Rollover
Account).
For Overview of your Dental Benefits, please see About Your Benefit Section of this Enrollment Booklet.
NOTES:
You and your insured dependents maintain separate MRAs based on your own claim activity. Each MRA may not exceed the MRA limit.
Cases on either a calendar year or policy year accumulation basis qualify for the Maximum Rollover feature. For calendar year cases with an effective date in October, November
or December, the Maximum Rollover feature starts as of the first full benefit year. For example, if a plan starts in November of 2013, the claim activity in 2014 will be used and
applied to MRAs for use in 2015. #
Under either benefit year set up (calendar year or policy year), Maximum Rollover for new entrants joining with 3 months or less remaining in the benefit year, will not begin until
the start of the next full benefit year. Maximum Rollover is deferred for members who have coverage of Major services deferred. For these members, Maximum Rollover starts
when coverage of Major services starts, or the start of the next benefit year if 3 months or less remain until the next benefit year. (Actual eligibility timeframe may vary. See your
Plan Details for the most accurate information.)

THIS NOTICE DESCRIBES HOW HEALTH INFORMATION ABOUT YOU MAY BE USED
AND DISCLOSED AND HOW YOU CAN GET ACCESS TO THIS INFORMATION.
PLEASE REVIEW IT CAREFULLY.
Effective: 05/01/2016
This Notice of Privacy Practices describes how Guardian and its subsidiaries may use and disclose your Protected
Health Information (PHI) in order to carry out treatment, payment and health care operations and for other purposes
permitted or required by law.
Guardian is required by law to maintain the privacy of PHI and to provide you with notice of our legal duties and privacy
practices concerning PHI. We are required to abide by the terms of this Notice so long as it remains in effect. We reserve
the right to change the terms of this Notice of Privacy Practices as necessary and to make the new Notice effective for all
PHI maintained by us. If we make material changes to our privacy practices, copies of revised notices will be made
available on request and circulated as required by law. Copies of our current Notice may be obtained by contacting
Guardian (using the information supplied below), or on our Web site at www.guardianiife.com/privacv-policv .
What is Protected Health Information (PHI):
PHI is individually identifiable information (including demographic information) relating to your health, to the health
care provided to you or to payment for health care. PHI refers particularly to information acquired or maintained by us as
a result of your having health coverage (including medical, dental, vision and long term care coverage).
In What Ways may Guardian Use and Disclose your Protected Health Information (PHI):
Guardian has the right to use or disclose your PHI without your written authorization to assist in your treatment, to
facilitate payment and for health care operations purposes. There are certain circumstances where we are required by law
to use or disclose your PHI. And there are other purposes, listed below, where we are permitted to use or disclose your
PHI without further authorization from you. Please note that examples are provided for illustrative purposes only and are
not intended to indicate every use or disclosure that may be made for a particular purpose.
Guardian has the right to use or disclose your PHI for the following purposes:
Treatment. Guardian may use and disclose your PHI to assist your health care providers in your diagnosis and
treatment. For example, we may disclose your PHI to providers to supply information about alternative
treatments.
Payment. Guardian may use and disclose your PHI in order to pay for the services and resources you may receive.
For example, we may disclose your PHI for payment purposes to a health care provider or a health plan. Such
purposes may include: ascertaining your range of benefits; certifying that you received treatment; requesting details
regarding your treatment to determine if your benefits will cover, or pay for, your treatment.
Health Care Operations. Guardian may use and disclose your PHI to perform health care operations, such as
administrative or business functions. For example, we may use your PHI for underwriting and premium rating
purposes. However, we will not use or disclose your genetic information for underwriting purposes and are
prohibited by law from doing so.
Appointment Reminders. Guardian may use and disclose your PHI to contact you and remind you of appointments.
Health Related Benefits and Services. Guardian may use and disclose PHI to inform you of health related benefits or
services that may be of interest to you.
Plan Sponsors. Guardian may use or disclose PHI to the plan sponsor of your group health plan to permit the plan
sponsor to perform plan administration functions. For example, a plan may contact us regarding benefits, service or
coverage issues. We may also disclose summary health information about the enrollees in your group health plan
to the plan sponsor so that the sponsor can obtain premium bids for health insurance coverage, or to decide whether
to modify, amend or terminate your group health plan.

death, and for public health investigations.
• We may use or disclose your PHI in an emergency, directly to or through a disaster relief entity, to find and tell
those close to you of your location or condition
• We may disclose your PHI to the proper authorities if we suspect child abuse or neglect; we may also disclose

• We may disclose your PHI to a government oversight agency authorized by law to conducting audits,
investigations, or civil or criminal proceedings.

authorized by law. We also may disclose your PHI to authorized federal officials in order to protect the
President, other officials or foreign heads of state, or to conduct investigations authorized by law.
• We may disclose your PHI to correctional institutions or law enforcement officials if you are an inmate or under
the custody of a law enforcement official (e.g., for the institution to provide you with health care services, for the
safety and security of the institution, and/or to protect your health and safety or the health and safety of other
individuals).
• We may use or disclose your PHI to your employer under limited circumstances related primarily to
workplace injury or illness or medical surveillance.
We generally will not sell your PHI, or use or disclose PHI about you for marketing purposes without your
authorization unless otherwise permitted by law.

made, if any, of your PHI. You have the right to receive an accounting of certain disclosures of your PHI that were made
by us. This right applies to disclosures for purposes other than those made to carry out treatment, payment and health care
operations as described in this notice. It excludes disclosures made to you, or those made for notification purposes.
We ask that you submit your request in writing by completing our form. Your request may state a requested time
period not more than six years prior to the date when you make your request. Your request should indicate in what
form you want the list (e.g., paper, electronically). Our form for Accounting of Disclosure requests is available at

a request to the contact information listed at the end of this notice.
Your Right to File a Complaint. If you believe your privacy rights have been violated, you may file a complaint with
Guardian or the Secretary of U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. If you wish to file a complaint with
Guardian, you may do so using the contact information below. You will not be penalized for filing a complaint.
Please submit any exercise of the Rights designated below to Guardian in writing using the contact information listed
below. For some requests, Guardian may charge for reasonable costs associated with complying with your requests; in
such a case, we will notify you of the cost involved and provide you the opportunity to modify your request before any
costs are incurred.
Your Right to Request Restrictions. You have the right to request a restriction on the PHI we use or disclose about you
for treatment, payment or health care operations as described in this notice. You also have the right to request a restriction
on the medical information we disclose about you to someone who is involved in your care or the payment for your care.
Guardian is not required to agree to your request; however, if we do agree, we will comply with your request until we
receive notice from you that you no longer want the restriction to apply (except as required by law or in emergency
situations). Your request must describe in a clear and concise manner: (a) the information you wish restricted; (b) whether
you are requesting to limit Guardian's use, disclosure or both; and (c) to whom you want the limits to apply.
Your Right to Request Confidential Communications. You have the right to request that Guardian communicate with
you about your PHI be in a particular manner or at a certain location. For example, you may ask that we contact you at
work rather than at home. We are required to accommodate all reasonable requests made in writing, when such requests
clearly state that your life could be endangered by the disclosure of all or part of your PHI.
Your Right to Amend Your PHI If you feel that any PHI about you, which is maintained by Guardian, is inaccurate or
incomplete, you have the right to request that such PHI be amended or corrected. Within your written request, you must
provide a reason in support of your request. Guardian reserves the right to deny your request if: (i) the PHI was not
created by Guardian, unless the person or entity that created the information is no longer available to amend it (ii) if we
do not maintain the PHI at issue (iii) if you would not be permitted to inspect and copy the PHI at issue or (iv) if the PHI
we maintain about you is accurate and complete. If we deny your request, you may submit a written statement of your
disagreement to us, and we will record it with your health information.
Your Right to Access to Your PHI. You have the right to inspect and obtain a copy of your PHI that we maintain in
designated record sets. Under certain circumstances, we may deny your request to inspect and copy your PHI. In an
instance where you are denied access and have a right to have that determination reviewed, a licensed health care
professional chosen by Guardian will review your request and the denial. The person conducting the review will not be
the person who denied your request. Guardian promises to comply with the outcome of the review.

Your Life Insurance Benefits
Internet Archive
Benefits effective: 11/1/2016
Feel confident in knowing that your family is protected with Anthem
Blue Cross’ Group Term Life Insurance. Please review your benefit
certificate for specific plan details, eligibility definitions, limitations and
exclusions.
Group term life insurance benefit amount: Flat $25,000
Your family or beneficiary will get the benefit amount if you pass away.
Accidental death and dismemberment insurance benefit amount: Same as Life
Accidental Death and Dismemberment Insurance pays a benefit to your beneficiary if your death is caused by an
accident. You may also get part of this benefit if an accident results in the loss of sight, a limb, certain fingers or toes,
speech, hearing or certain types of paralysis (not able to move part of your body).
Benefits after age 65
You will still have benefits after you turn 65, though they will reduce as follows:
Reduced by 35% at age 70; 50% reduction at age 75
All benefits end at retirement.
Living Benefit (accelerated death benefit)
You can ask for up to 100% to a maximum of $250,000 of your group term life benefits to be paid while you are living, if
you are terminally ill with less than 12 months to live. If you take a Living Benefit payment, the amount your beneficiary
gets after your death will be reduced by the amount you were paid.
Waiver of premium
We may continue your life insurance coverage until you turn 65 if you become totally disabled and not able to work prior
to age 60. You will not pay premiums after the first six months after we approve your waiver of premium claim.
Conversion
If you leave your job - for any reason - you may be able to change your group life coverage to an individual policy. You
must apply for coverage and pay the first month’s premium for the individual policy within 31 days of the last day you
were employed.
Portability of life insurance
If you leave employment for reasons other than retirement or disability, this feature allows you to take your optional life
insurance coverage with you by paying the required premiums. Plus, the rates are typically lower than an individual policy.
Additional accidental death and dismemberment insurance benefits
Your AD&D coverage also includes extra benefits that also pay for certain losses: Seat Belt Benefit if you die in an auto
accident while wearing a seatbelt and Air Bag Benefit if you die in an auto accident while wearing a seatbelt in a car
that has an airbag; Child Education Benefit helps pay your eligible child’s college costs if you die in an accident;
Repatriation Benefit, helps pay costs to prepare and transport your body if you die in an accident more than 75 miles
from home; Common Carrier Benefits you die in a public transportation accident; Coma Benefits you are in a coma
due to an accident.

and well-being. To find out more about SpecialOffers@Anthern sm discounts and benefits, go to
anthem.com/specialoffers.
Beneficiary support programs
If you should pass away, we’re here to help your beneficiary (the person who gets your life insurance benefit):
• Beneficiaries continue to have access to Resource Advisor services, including all the features described above,
plus they get three face-to-face visits with a counselor in the first six months after their loss.
• Beneficiary Companion services help them close accounts and settle important estate matters with one phone call.
That way, they can focus on healing.
• Beneficiaries can order copies of The Healing Book - Facing the Death - and Celebrating the Life - of Someone
You Love for children affected by the loss. This book can really help children at a time when they need it most -
and there’s no charge for it.
• Your beneficiary can choose to have your life insurance benefits paid through our Access Advantage account.
That way the funds can be used right away or when they are needed. Access Advantage accounts earn interest,
so important investment decisions can be made later, at a less stressful time.
