Do you need to Enroll?
Use the checklist below to help you determine if there is coverage
you may be interested in enrolling in for the 2015 Plan Year.
Remember, everyone’s needs are different. Carefully consider
the needs of you and your family before making any benefit
elections.
What you should think about:
Do you want to make a change to a
plan option?
Do you want to make a change to your
life insurance amount?
Does someone in your family need
glasses?
Do you want to add or delete
dependents?
Do you want to have a Health Care
Flexible Spending Account (FSA) for the
2015 Plan Year?
Do you want to have a Dependent Care
Flexible Spending Account (FSA) for the
2015 Plan Year?
Do you want your insurance premiums
to be deducted from your check before
taxes?
YES
NO
If you answered yes you should consider:
Changes must be marked on your
enrollment form.
You can choose to increase or decrease your
amount of optional life insurance. Any
increase is subject to medical underwriting.
You might want to consider electing vision
coverage.
This is your only opportunity during the year
to do so without experiencing an IRS
qualifying event.
Even if you currently have an FSA you will
need to complete an election form in order
for it to continue.
Even if you currently have an FSA you will
need to complete an election form in order
for it to continue.
If your insurance premiums were deducted
before taxes in calendar year 2014, they will
automatically be deducted in calendar year
2015. Otherwise, you will need to complete
an enrollment form.

Benefits Guide Highlights
Calendar Year 2015
Open Enrollment Forms must be
returned to Risk Management no
later than November 7, 2014.
Open Enrollment is your one-time opportunity to review your current benefit elections and make any changes that
may be needed for you and your family. Please take the time to familiarize yourself with the guide’s contents. We
hope that after you review this guide you will have a clear understanding of the changes that will be effective
January 1, 2015, and how they may impact you and your covered dependents.
We also recommend that you attend an enrollment meeting. A schedule of meetings may be found on page 19.
Please be sure to bring this enrollment guide and any questions you may have when attending your meeting.
When is the deadline and what happens if you don’t enroll by the deadline?
The deadline for all elections, including Flexible Spending Accounts, is November 7, 2014. If you are using the
courier, please allow at least three (3) days for delivery. The benefit elections you currently have in place will
rollover automatically, except Flexible Spending Accounts (Health & Dependent Care) your deductions will reflect
the 2015 premium amounts.
If you have a current Health or Dependent Care FSA, it will NOT rollover. You will not have a Health or Dependent
Care FSA in 2015 unless you complete and return the proper forms.
Effective January 1, 2013, the annual amount you can contribute to your FSA was reduced from $5,000 to $2,500
per employee, per plan year.
Once the deadline passes, you will not be able to add or delete dependents from any coverage and/or change
your plan options without an IRS qualifying life event – e.g., marriage, birth of a child or a spouse terminates or
commences employment.
What do I do if I want to enroll or make changes?
If you wish to enroll or make a plan change, you must complete, sign, and date the attached enrollment/benefit
authorization form (part 1 or 2) and return it to the Risk Management Department. Forms will also be available at
the meetings, Risk Management Department, and on the Risk Management page of the OCSD website.
Use your legal name (name on paycheck) and the last four numbers of your social security number on all
correspondence sent to the Risk Management Department.
Is your dependent a valid dependent?
If any of the dependents you currently cover are not your legal dependents or do not meet the eligibility
2
requirements, Open Enrollment is an opportunity to remove them from your coverage without question. The
School Board of Okaloosa County reserves the right to audit employee benefits enrollment at any time.

This is not an insurance contract or Benefit Booklet. The above Benefit Summary is only a partial description of the many benefits and services covered by Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Florida, Inc., an
independent licensee of the Blue Cross and Blue Shield Association. For a complete description of benefits and exclusions, please see Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Florida’s Benefit Booklet and Schedule of
Benefits; their terms prevail.
Florida Blue is currently reviewing all health care reform legislation—the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and the Health Care and Education
Affordability Reconciliation Act—which includes numerous provisions to expand access to health insurance, improve the quality and comprehensiveness of
coverage, and make coverage more affordable for all Americans. Although some major elements of reform begin in 2010, others will be implemented over the next
several years. Therefore, the information in our enrollment materials is subject to change based on the final result of this legislation.

Basic Restorative care includes the treatment of caries, commonly referred to as cavities and tooth decay. Your plan offers coverage for
anterior composite resin fillings and posterior amalgam fillings. But what does this mean?
Your mouth is comprised of two sections of teeth: anterior and posterior. Anterior teeth are the six upper and six lower front teeth. All
other teeth are considered posterior teeth. Your plan provides coverage for composite resin fillings (tooth colored fillings) on your anterior
teeth and amalgam coverage (silver colored fillings) on your posterior teeth.
However, this does not mean you cannot select a composite resin filling for a posterior tooth. If you choose a composite resin filling on a
posterior tooth, your plan will reimburse you at the amalgam level. You will be responsible for the difference between the dentist’s fees
for the composite filling vs. the amalgam filling.

OKALOOSA COUNTY SCHOOL DISTRICT FLEXIBLE SPENDING ACCOUNTS (FSA)
A representative from Lockard & Williams, the administrator of our Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA), also known
as the Cafeteria Plan, will be at the scheduled meetings to conduct group and one-on-one enrollments and to
assist with any individual questions you may have.
Some points to keep in mind:
 The FSA year is January 1, 2015 – December 31, 2015. Your elections will be for 12 months. (The amount
you submit on your enrollment form is per pay check.)
 The following expenses may be paid from the FSA account:
o Insurance Premiums
o Health Care Reimbursement
o Dependent Care Reimbursement
 If you only used your FSA in calendar year 2014 for insurance premiums, and do not want to make any
changes, you DO NOT need to complete any forms. If you did not pay your insurance premiums from your
FSA account in calendar year 2014 and wish to do so in calendar year 2015, you MUST complete an
election form.
 Effective January 1, 2013 the annual amount you can contribute to the FSA was reduced from $5,000 to
$2,500 per employee, per plan year. This change is due to provisions of the Affordable Care Act.
 Everyone participating in the FSA for health care reimbursement MUST complete a new form. The
maximum annual amount you may contribute is $2,500 per employee, per plan year.
 Everyone participating in the FSA for dependent care reimbursement MUST complete a new form. The
maximum annual amount you may contribute is $5,000 per employee, per plan year.
 During the year, if you have an IRS qualifying event that allows for a change of the premium you have tax
deferred, you MUST complete a change form and get approval from Lockard & Williams before the change
can be made.
 If you make an FSA health care reimbursement election for 2015, the total annual election amount will be
loaded on your TAKE CARE CARD and available for use on January 1st, 2015.
 Over the counter medications will no longer be eligible for purchase with funds from Flexible Spending
Accounts or Health Care Reimbursement Accounts, unless a prescription is provided.
 In order for employees to be reimbursed for the over the counter medications, you will need to submit a
paper claim, the receipt showing the purchase, and a physician’s prescription.

Important Notice from
Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Florida D/B/A Florida Blue
and Health Options Inc. D/B/A Florida Blue HMO.
About Your Prescription Drug Coverage and Medicare
This notice applies ONLY to individuals who are over age 65 and on Medicare or approaching
age 65 and eligible for Medicare or receiving Medicare Disability benefits. Please disregard
this notice if you are not in one of these categories of individuals.
Please read this notice carefully and keep it where you can find it. This notice has information about your current
prescription drug coverage with Florida Blue and about your options under Medicare’s prescription drug coverage. This
information can help you decide whether or not you want to join a Medicare drug plan. If you are considering joining, you
should compare your current coverage, including which drugs are covered at what cost, with the coverage and costs of the
plans offering Medicare prescription drug coverage in your area. Information about where you can get help to make
decisions about your prescription drug coverage is at the end of this notice.
There are two important things you need to know about your current coverage and Medicare’s prescription drug coverage:
1. Medicare prescription drug coverage became available in 2006 to everyone with Medicare. You can get this coverage if
you join a Medicare Prescription Drug Plan or join a Medicare Advantage Plan (like an HMO or PPO) that offers
prescription drug coverage. All Medicare drug plans provide at least a standard level of coverage set by Medicare. Some
plans may also offer more coverage for a higher monthly premium.
2. Florida Blue has determined that the prescription drug coverage offered by your health plan is, on average for all plan
participants, expected to pay out as much as standard Medicare prescription drug coverage pays and is therefore
considered Creditable Coverage. Because your existing coverage is Creditable Coverage, you can keep this coverage and
not pay a higher premium (a penalty) if you later decide to join a Medicare drug plan.
When Can You Join A Medicare Drug Plan?
You can join a Medicare drug plan when you first become eligible for Medicare and each year from October 15th to
December 7th.
However, if you lose your current creditable prescription drug coverage, through no fault of your own, you will also be
eligible for a two (2) month Special Enrollment Period (SEP) to join a Medicare drug plan.
What Happens To Your Current Coverage If You Decide to Join A Medicare Drug Plan?
If you decide to join a Medicare drug plan, your current Florida Blue coverage will be affected. You can keep this
coverage if you elect to join a Medicare drug plan and your Florida Blue health plan will coordinate your benefits with
Medicare for drug coverage. If you would like more information about the prescription drug plan provisions and options
that Medicare eligible individuals may have when they become eligible for Medicare prescription drug coverage, see pages
7-9 of the CMS Disclosure of Creditable Coverage to Medicare Part D Eligible Individuals Guidance located at
http://www.cms.hhs.gov/CreditableCoverage/.
If you do decide to join a Medicare drug plan and drop your current Florida Blue coverage, be aware that you and your
dependents will not be able to get this coverage back.
16
When Will You Pay A Higher Premium (Penalty) To Join A Medicare Drug Plan?
You should also know that if you drop or lose your current coverage with Florida Blue and don’t join a Medicare drug
plan within 63 continuous days after your current coverage ends, you may pay a higher premium (a penalty) to join a
Medicare drug plan later.
If you go 63 continuous days or longer without creditable prescription drug coverage, your monthly premium may go up
by at least 1% of the Medicare base beneficiary premium per month for every month that you did not have that coverage.
For example, if you go nineteen months without creditable coverage, your premium may consistently be at least 19%
higher than the Medicare base beneficiary premium. You may have to pay this higher premium (a penalty) as long as you
have Medicare prescription drug coverage. In addition, you may have to wait until the following October to join.
For More Information About This Notice Or Your Current Prescription Drug
Coverage…
Contact us for further information at 1-800-FLA-BLUE (TTY: 711). NOTE: You’ll get this notice each year. You will
also get it before the next period you can join a Medicare drug plan, and if this coverage through Florida Blue changes.
You also may request a copy of this notice at any time.
For More Information About Your Options Under Medicare Prescription Drug
Coverage…
More detailed information about Medicare plans that offer prescription drug coverage is in the “Medicare & You”
handbook. You’ll get a copy of the handbook in the mail every year from Medicare. You may also be contacted directly by
Medicare drug plans. For more information about Medicare prescription drug coverage:

Medicare drug plans, you may be required to provide a copy of this notice when you join
to show whether or not you have maintained creditable coverage and, therefore, whether
or not you are required to pay a higher premium (a penalty).
