Health Plan Booklet Language Changes: Preventive Care

The Preventive Care section of the March 2015 Health Plan Summary Plan Description has been amended to update outdated website references and language in reference to current Health Plan policies. The amendments, which make no other substantive changes to the Plan, are as follows:

  • The address of the Affordable Care Act’s preventive care services site was updated to https://www.healthcare.gov/coverage/preventive-care-benefits/.
  • Smoking cessation and weight loss prescription drugs were removed from the description of preventive care prescription drugs covered at 100%, as they are no longer on the federal government’s list of preventive services. These are now subject to the Health Plan’s prescription benefits.

Please refer to the March 2015 Health Plan Summary Plan Description and its updates, available on the Health Plan Documents page for more details.
