    FAQs

    HOW ARE THE DEDUCTIBLES AND OUT-OF-POCKET ALLOWANCES APPLIED TO MY RETIREE MEDICAL PLAN?

    The deductible is the amount an eligible person pays each year before the comprehensive medical plan pays any portion of a claim. The out-of-pocket maximum is the maximum amount any person need pay in covered comprehensive medical expenses each year. Once the out-of-pocket maximum is reached, the plan pays 100% of covered expenses for the rest of the calendar year.

    WHEN WILL THE MEDICAL ID CARDS/PRESCRIPTION DRUG CARDS BE MAILED? WHAT IF I DON’T RECEIVE MINE AND I HAVE TO GO TO THE HOSPITAL

    Your insurance will be effective the first of the month of your retirement. If you don’t receive your new cards and need care, you can have the hospital, doctor, or pharmacy call the insurance company for verification of coverage.

    WHY IS MY PREMIUM MORE THAN JOE’S? HE RETIRED FROM ANOTHER DIVISION OF HONEYWELL.

    Premiums are based on many variables, i.e., age, years of service, whether you were an hourly or salaried employee, location of plant, and the year in which you retire. Therefore, your coverage and the composition of the group covered by your plan may be different from Joe’s.
