BCBS IL Medical

As a HALO employee, you have two medical plan options through BCBS IL with access to a comprehensive national network (Blue Edge).  Regardless of your enrollment, the plans are in the same network!  If you are unsure of where to get care, please refer to the Provider Service Overview.

  • For additional plan details, please see the applicable Summary of Benefits Coverage under the “Plan Documents & Contact Information” section below.

PPO

The PPO plan offers richer benefit provisions when compared to the High Deductible Health Plan.  The PPO offers Copays for items such as Office & Specialist Visits, Urgent Care, Emergency Room Care, and Prescription Drugs.

The PPO has an embedded deductible structure.  This means if you have Family Coverage and a single family member reaches the individual Deductible shown above, he or she will be eligible for benefits provided during that benefit period and does not have to wait for other family members to satisfy their program Deductibles. A family member may not apply more than the individual Deductible amount toward the family Deductible amount.  Note that your deductible and out-of-pocket maximum renew on a calendar year basis.

High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP)

Enrollment in HALO’S High Deductible Health Plan allows for you to open and contribute to a Health Savings Account (HSA).  Learn more about Health Savings Accounts

You must meet your deductible below before coinsurance begins. If you meet your out-of-pocket maximum, you will not pay any more for the cost of your care for the rest of the year.  Note that your deductible and out-of-pocket maximum renew on a calendar year basis.

The HDHP has an embedded deductible structure. This means if you have Family Coverage and a single family member reaches the individual Deductible shown above, he or she will be eligible for benefits provided during that benefit period and does not have to wait for other family members to satisfy their program Deductibles. A family member may not apply more than the individual Deductible amount toward the family Deductible amount.  Note that your deductible and out-of-pocket maximum renew on a calendar year basis.

The HDHP has an aggregate out-of-pocket maximum.  The plan pays 100% of the allowable covered in-network cost for the remainder of the calendar year, when the out-of-pocket maximum has been met.  If you have other family members in this plan, they have to meet their own out-of-pocket limits, until the overall family out-of-pocket limit has been met.
