Introduction

On December 23, 2004, President George W. Bush signed the Federal Employee Dental and Vision Benefits Enhancement Act of 2004 (Public Law 108-496). The law directed the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) to establish supplemental dental and vision benefit programs to be made available to Federal employees, annuitants, and their eligible family members. In response to the legislation, OPM established the Federal Employees Dental and Vision Insurance Program (FEDVIP). OPM has contracted with dental and vision insurers to offer an array of choices to Federal employees and annuitants. Section 715 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2017 (FY 2017 NDAA), Public Law 114-38, expanded FEDVIP eligibility to certain TRICARE-eligible individuals.

This brochure describes the benefits of the High PPO and the Standard Advantage EPO options under Humana Dental Company contract OPM02-FEDVIP-02AP-10 with OPM, as authorized by the FEDVIP law. The address for our administrative office is:

TermDefinition

*Position must be in a Federal agency that provides dental and/or vision coverage with 50 percent or more employer-paid premium.

The timeframe for requesting a QLE change is from 31 days before to 60 days after the event. There are two exceptions:

  • There is no time limit for a change based on moving from a regional plan’s service area; and
  • You cannot request a new enrollment based on a QLE before the QLE occurs, except for enrollment because of a loss of dental or vision insurance. You must make the change no later than 60 days after the event.

Generally, enrollments and enrollment changes made based on a QLE are effective on the first day of the pay period following the one in which BENEFEDS receives the enrollment or change. BENEFEDS will send you confirmation of your new coverage effective date.

Once you enroll in a plan, your 60-day window for that type of plan ends, even if 60 calendar days have not yet elapsed. That means once you have enrolled in either plan, you cannot change or cancel that particular enrollment until the next Open Season, unless you experience a QLE that allows such a change or cancellation.

Cancelling an enrollment

You may cancel your enrollment only during the annual Open Season. An eligible family member’s coverage also ends upon the effective date of the cancellation.

Your cancellation is effective at the end of the day before the date OPM sets as the Open Season effective date.

When Coverage Stops

Coverage ends for active and retired Federal, U.S. Postal employees, and TRICARE-eligible individuals when you:

  • no longer meet the definition of an eligible employee, annuitant, or TRICARE-eligible individual;
  • begin a period of non-pay status or pay that is insufficient to have your FEDVIP premiums withheld and you do not make direct premium payments to BENEFEDS;
  • are making direct premium payments to BENEFEDS and you stop making the payments;
  • cancel the enrollment during Open Season;
  • a Retired Reservist begins active duty; or
  • the sponsor or primary enrollee leaves active duty.

Coverage for a family member ends when:

  • you as the enrollee lose coverage; or
  • the family member no longer meets the definition of an eligible family member.

Continuation of Coverage

Under FEDVIP, there is no 31-day extension of coverage. The following are also NOT available under FEDVIP plans:

  • Temporary Continuation of Coverage (TCC);
  • spouse equity coverage; or
  • right to convert to an individual policy (conversion policy).

FSAFEDS/High Deductible Health Plans and FEDVIP

If you are planning to enroll in an FSAFEDS Health Care Flexible Spending Account (HCFSA) or Limited Expense Health Care Flexible Spending Account (LEX HCFSA), you should consider how coverage under a FEDVIP plan will affect your annual expenses, and thus the amount that you should allot to an FSAFEDS account. Please note that insurance premiums are not eligible expenses for either type of FSA.

If you have an HCFSA or LEX HCFSA FSAFEDS account and you haven’t exhausted your funds by December 31st of the plan year, FSAFEDS can automatically carry over up to $500 of unspent funds into another health care or limited expense account for the subsequent year. To be eligible for carryover, you must be employed by an agency that participates in FSAFEDS and actively making allotments from your pay through December 31. You must also actively reenroll in a health care or limited expense account during the NEXT Open Season to be carryover eligible. Your reenrollment must be for at least the minimum of $100.  If you do not reenroll, or if you are not employed by an agency that participates in FSAFEDS and actively making allotments from your pay through December 31st, your funds will not be carried over.

Because of the tax benefits an FSA provides, the IRS requires that you forfeit any money for which you did not incur an eligible expense and file a claim in the time period permitted. This is known as the “Use-it-or-Lose-it” rule. Carefully consider the amount you will elect. 

For a health care or limited expense account, each participant must contribute a minimum of $100 to a maximum of $2,700.

Current FSAFEDS participants must re-enroll to participate next year. See www.fsafeds.com or call 1-877-FSAFEDS (372-3337) or TTY: 1-866-353-8058. Note: FSAFEDS is not open to retired employees, or to TRICARE eligible individuals.

If you enroll or are enrolled in a high deductible health plan with a health savings account (HSA) or health reimbursement arrangement (HRA), you can use your HSA or HRA to pay for qualified dental/vision costs not covered by your FEHB and FEDVIP plans.

Members that participate in paperless reimbursement are not required to submit claims on behalf of the Humana Dental plan to be reimbursed.




Section 3 How You Obtain Care

TermDefinition
Identification Cards/Enrollment Confirmation

We will send you an identification (ID) card within 15 days of your effective date. It is important to bring your FEDVIP and FEHB ID card to every dental appointment because most FEHB plans offer some level of dental benefits separate from your FEDVIP coverage. Presenting both ID cards can ensure that you receive the maximum allowable benefit under each Program.

If you do not receive your ID card within 30 days after the effective date of your enrollment or if you need replacement cards, you may request one through our website at http://feds.humana.com or call us at 877-692-2468.

Where You Get Covered Care

High PPO option:

You can obtain care from any licensed dentist you choose. You may be able to reduce your out-of-pocket expenses for covered services by selecting an in-network provider. You can find in-network plan providers by visiting our website at: http://feds.humana.com.

Standard Advantage EPO option:

Members should receive services from in-network providers.  There is no coverage for services rendered by an out-of-network provider, with the exception of emergency services. You can find in-network providers by visiting our website: http://feds.humana.com.

Plan Providers

Plan providers, also referred to as “in-network providers”, are licensed dentist and dental providers who have contracted with us to provide negotiated discounts on covered services. We list plan providers in the provider directory, which we update periodically. The list is on our website at: http://feds.humana.com.

In-Network

You may see any in-network general dentist or specialist (e.g. Endodontist, Periodontist, etc.). You do not need a referral to see a specialist. You can find in-network providers by visiting our website at  http://feds.humana.com.

Out-of-Network

High PPO option:

You may obtain care from any licensed dentist you choose. If the dentist you use is not part of our network, or not in our service area, benefits will be determined based on the out-of-network benefit level of the out-of-network plan allowance.

You are responsible for the difference between our payment and the amount billed.  

Standard Advantage EPO option:

There are no out-of-network benefits available except for emergency care.

Emergency Services

High PPO option:

All expenses for emergency services are payable as any other expense and are subject to plan limitations such as frequencies, deductibles, and maximums. If you utilize the services of an out-of-network dentist for emergency services, benefits will be paid under the out-of-network Plan provisions. You are responsible for the difference between our payment and billed charges.

 Standard Advantage EPO option:

If you have an emergency outside of the service area, visit any general dentist or specialist for care. We will reimburse you for emergency services up to $100 per member per year.

Plan Allowance

High PPO option:

The plan allowance is the amount we allow for a specific procedure. When you use an in-network provider, your out-of-pocket cost is limited to the difference between the plan allowance and our payment. When you use an out-of-network provider, you are responsible for the difference between the plan allowance and our payment plus the difference between the amount the provider bills and the plan allowance.

Note: The plan allowance only applies to the High PPO option.

Pre-Treatment Plan

High PPO option:

In the event a procedure is anticipated to cost at least $300, you or your dentist may submit a dental treatment plan for us to review before your treatment. An estimate for services is not a guarantee of what we will pay. It tells you and your dentist in advance about the benefits payable for the covered expenses in the treatment plan. An estimate for services is not necessary for emergency care.

Alternate Benefit

High PPO option:

If two or more services are acceptable to correct a dental condition, we will base benefits payable on the plan allowance for the least expensive covered service that produces a professionally satisfactory result, as determined by us. If you or your dentist decide on a more costly treatment than we determine to be satisfactory for treatment of the condition, you will be responsible for the remaining expense incurred.

Standard Advantage EPO option:

There are no alternate benefits associated with this plan. The copayment for each listed procedure you receive is the total amount you will owe the dentist.

FEHB First Payor

When you visit a provider who participates with both, your FEHB plan and your FEDVIP plan, the FEHB plan will pay benefits first. The FEDVIP plan allowance will be the prevailing charge, in these cases. You are responsible for the difference between the FEHB and FEDVIP benefit payments and the FEDVIP plan allowance. We are responsible for facilitating the process with the primary FEHB first payor. You can assist with this process and also ensure that you are receiving the maximum allowable benefit under each program by presenting both your FEDVIP and FEHB ID cards at the time of your dental appointment. The dentist should include both ID numbers when submitting the claim to the plans.

It is important to bring your FEDVIP and FEHB identification cards to every dental appointment because most FEHB plans offer some level of dental benefits separate from your FEDVIP coverage. Presenting both identification cards can ensure that you receive the maximum allowable benefit under each Program.

Coordination of Benefits

We will coordinate benefit payments with the payment of benefits under other group health benefits coverage you may have and the payment of dental costs under no fault insurance that pays benefits without regard to fault.

We may request that you verify/identify your health insurance plan(s) annually or at time of service.

Service Area

To enroll in either plan, you must live in our service area. This is where our providers are located. Our service area is: Alabama, Arkansas, majority of Arizona, California, Colorado, District of Columbia, Florida, Georgia, majority of Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, parts of Maryland, Mississippi, Missouri, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, and West Virginia.

Ordinarily, on the Standard Advantage EPO, you must get your care from providers within the service area who contract with us. If you receive care outside our service area, we will pay only for emergency care benefits. An emergency is treatment due to injury, accident or severe pain requiring the services of a dentist which occurs under circumstances where it is neither medically or physically possible for you to be treated by a plan provider. We will not pay for any other services out of our service area unless the services have prior plan approval.

If you move outside of our service area, you may enroll in another plan at that time. You do not have to wait until Open Season to change plans. Contact BENEFEDS at www.BENEFEDS.com or call 877-888-FEDS (877-888-3337), TTY number 877-889-5680 to change plans.

Rating Areas

Your rates are determined based on where you live. This is called a rating area. If you move, you must update your address through BENEFEDS. Your rates might change because of the move.

Limited Access Areas

If you live in a limited access area and you receive covered services from an out-of-network provider, we will pay in accordance with our plan allowance. You are responsible for any difference between the amount billed and our payment. You can find a list of our limited access areas by contacting us at 877-692-2468.

Dental Review

High PPO option:

Claims submitted may be subject to dental review prior to payment. In these cases, the determination of benefits is based upon the review of clinical documentation by a licensed dentist.

Standard Advantage EPO option:

Claims submitted by dentists that may be for cosmetic purposes only are subject to dental review prior to payment.




Section 4 Your Cost for Covered Services

This is what you will pay out-of-pocket for covered care:



TermDefinition

Deductible

A deductible is a fixed amount of expenses you must incur each calendar year for certain covered services and supplies before we will pay for covered services. Note, deductibles only apply to the PPO High option. There are no deductibles for the Standard Advantage EPO option.

Calendar Year Deductible:

In-Network High PPO Option: $50/individual
In-Network High PPO Option: $100/family
Out-of-Network High PPO Option: $50/individual
Out-of-Network High PPO Option: $150/family

Coinsurance

Coinsurance is the percentage of the plan allowance that you must pay for your care. Coinsurance does not begin until after you meet your deductible, if applicable. Note, Coinsurance only applies to the High PPO option. There is no Coinsurance for the Standard Advantage EPO option.

Class A
In-Network High PPO Option You Pay: 0%, no deductible
Out-of-Network High PPO Option You Pay: 10%, no deductible

Class B
In-Network High PPO Option You Pay: 20%, after deductible
Out-of-Network High PPO Option You Pay: 40%, after deductible

Class C
In-Network High PPO Option You Pay: 50%, after deductible
Out-of-Network High PPO Option You Pay: 60%, after deductible

Orthodontics
In-Network High PPO Option You Pay: 50% (no deductible) up to $2,500 lifetime orthodontic maximum 
Out-of-Network High PPO Option You Pay: 50% (no deductible) up to $2,500 lifetime orthodontic maximum 

Co-payment

A co-payment is a fixed amount of money you pay directly to the dentist when you receive covered services. Co-payments only apply to the Standard Advantage EPO option. There are no co-payments for the High PPO option. The benefit schedule for the Standard Advantage EPO option lists the co-payments for each covered procedure. There are no additional charges.

Example: In the Standard Advantage EPO option, you pay $23 for an amalgam – one surface primary or permanent.

Annual Benefit Maximum

High PPO option:

The Annual Benefit Maximum is the total amount of benefits that will be paid for each covered person during a calendar year. The Annual Benefit Maximum is $5,000 for all in-network and out-of-network services combined. Once you reach this amount, you are responsible for all charges. Preventive services are waived and will not accumulate towards the annual benefit maximum.

After the Annual Benefit Maximum is reached, the High Option PPO offers an Extended Annual Maximum.  The Extended Annual Maximum is additional coverage for preventive, basic and major services (orthodontia excluded), and has no limit on dollars paid in a year.  Under the Extended Annual Maximum, your Humana Dental plan covers 30 percent of eligible services, and you pay a 70 percent coinsurance.  This ensures that you still have coverage if you exceed the plan's Annual Maximum Benefit.

Standard Advantage EPO option:

The annual benefit maximum under this plan is unlimited.  

Lifetime Benefit Maximum

There is no lifetime benefit maximum under this plan (except for orthodontic services under the High PPO option).

In-Network Services

High PPO option:

You pay the coinsurance percentage of the plan allowance for covered services after your in-network calendar year deductible has been satisfied. You are not responsible for charges above that allowance.

Standard Advantage EPO option:

The co-payment amounts listed in the benefit schedule for the Standard Advantage EPO option represent your total cost for in-network services.

Out-of-Network Services

High PPO option:

You pay the coinsurance percentage of the plan allowance for covered services after your out-of-network calendar year deductible has been satisfied. You are also responsible for the difference between the plan allowance and billed charges.

Standard Advantage EPO option:

Benefits under your plan must be received through in-network dentists. There is no coverage for services rendered by an out-of-network provider.

Emergency Services

An emergency is treatment due to injury, accident or severe pain requiring the services of a dentist which occurs under circumstances where it is neither medically or physically possible for you to be treated by a plan provider. We will not pay for any other services out of our service area unless the services have prior plan approval. We will reimburse you up to $100 per member per year. When traveling overseas, we will authorize emergency services only.

Calendar Year

The calendar year refers to the plan year, which is defined as January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2021.

In-Progress Treatment

In-progress treatment will be covered for the 2021 plan year; regardless of any current plan exclusion for care initiated prior to the enrollee's effective date. This requirement includes assumption of payments for covered orthodontia services up to the FEDVIP policy limits, and full payment where applicable up to the terms of FEDVIP policy for covered services completed (but not initiated) in the 2021 plan year such as crowns and implants. FEDVIP carriers will not cover in-progress treatment if you enroll in a FEDVIP plan that has a waiting period, or does not cover the service. Several FEDVIP dental plans have options that offer orthodontia coverage without a 12-month waiting period, and without age limits. Note: There are no waiting periods for any benefits on either option of this plan.

Section 6 International Services and Supplies

TermDefinition

International Claims Payment

This plan provides a benefit for emergency services when overseas. Emergency services are defined as treatment due to injury, accident or severe pain requiring the services of a dentist which occurs under circumstances where it is neither medically or physically possible for you to be treated by an in-network plan provider. For the High PPO option, if you utilize the services of an out-of-network dentist for emergency services, benefits will be paid under the out-of-network plan provisions. All expenses for emergency services are payable as any other expense and are subject to plan limitations such as frequencies, deductibles, and maximums. You are responsible for the difference between our payment and billed charges. For the Standard Advantage EPO option, you will be reimbursed for emergency services up to $100 per member per year.

Finding an International Provider

This plan provides a benefit for international emergency services when services are received from a licensed dentist.
Filing International Claims

The following should be provided when submitting a claim for International emergency services:

  • Name of country where services were received
  • American Dental Association procedure codes
  • Translation of language to English
  • Translation into US currency or accurate day rate
  • Tooth number(s) and/or quadrants
  • Date(s) of service

This plan does not provide benefits for the following:

  • Any expenses incurred while you qualify for any worker’s compensation or occupational disease act or law, whether or not you applied for coverage.

Stop Health Care Fraud!

Fraud increases the cost of health care for everyone and increases your Federal Employees Dental and Vision Insurance Program premium.

Protect Yourself From Fraud – Here are some things that you can do to prevent fraud:

  • Do not give your plan identification (ID) number over the telephone or to people you do not know, except to your providers, plan, BENEFEDS, or OPM.
  • Let only the appropriate providers review your clinical record or recommend services.
  • Avoid using providers who say that an item or service is not usually covered, but they know how to bill us to get it paid.
  • Carefully review your explanation of benefits (EOBs) statements.
  • Do not ask your provider to make false entries on certificates, bills or records in order to get us to pay for an item or service.
  • If you suspect that a provider has charged you for services you did not receive, billed you twice for the same service, or misrepresented any information, do the following:
    • Call the provider and ask for an explanation.  There may be an error.
    • If the provider does not resolve the matter, call us at 877-692-2468 and explain the situation.
  • Do not maintain as a family member on your policy:
    • Your former spouse after a divorce decree or annulment is final (even if a court order stipulates otherwise); or
    • Your child over age 22 (unless he/she is disabled and incapable of self- support).

If you have any questions about the eligibility of a dependent, please contact BENEFEDS.

Be sure to review Section 1, Eligibility, of this brochure prior to submitting your enrollment or obtaining benefits.

Fraud or intentional misrepresentation of material fact is prohibited under the plan.  You can be prosecuted for fraud and your agency may take action against you if you falsify a claim to obtain FEDVIP benefits or try to obtain services for someone who is not an eligible family member or who is no longer enrolled in the plan, or enroll in the plan when you are no longer eligible.
