Get plan benefits booklets, find out what is covered, and find your costs for care.
The benefits booklets, also called certificate of coverage (COC) or evidence of coverage (EOC), are produced by the health plans to provide detailed information about plan benefits and what is and is not covered.
Summaries of Benefits and Coverage (SBCs) are required under the federal Affordable Care Act to help members understand plan benefits and medical terms.
SBCs help you compare things like:
The PEBB Program and/or medical plans provide SBCs, or notice of how to get one, at different times throughout the year (like when you apply for coverage, renew your plan, or request an SBC). SBCs are available (upon request) in English, Spanish, Tagalog, Chinese, and Navajo.
SBCs don't replace the PEBB Program's Medical Benefits Comparison tool, or the plans' benefits booklets.
Preauthorization is when you seek approval from your health plan for coverage of specific services, supplies, or drugs before receiving them. Some services or treatments (except emergencies) may require preauthorization before the plan pays for them. Preauthorization is not a guarantee, however, that your plan will pay for those services, supplies or drugs.
The criteria included in the preauthorization requirements below state how a plan determines when a service, supply, or drug is medically necessary and will be covered.
