HEALTH BENEFITS SHOWCASE

WELCOME!

Welcome to the Anaheim Union High School District health benefits website! Use the navigation bar at the top of the page to learn more about each category of benefits. This site will be available to you year-round, so visit whenever you or your family members need additional information. 

NEW-HIRE ENROLLMENT

AUHSD utilizes the American Fidelity AFenroll platform. You may self-enroll or schedule an appointment with a representative to assist you. You have 30 days from your hire date to complete your new-hire benefits enrollment. After this enrollment period, your next opportunity to change coverage will be during an annual open enrollment period or earlier if you experience a qualifying life event – like getting married or having a baby – and you notify the health benefits department within 30 days of the event. Review this website as well as the AUHSD Health Benefits Guide, linked above, to find information on your benefit offerings.

COVERING YOURSELF AND YOUR FAMILY

You're eligible for benefits beginning on the first day of the month following your date of hire (unless you are hired on the first of the month) if you're an active, regular employee who normally works at least 20 hours per week and unless you are told otherwise by your HR department, there is no monthly premium cost for you and your eligible dependents to be enrolled in the AUHSD health plans.

You may enroll your eligible dependents in the same plans you choose for yourself, including medical, dental, and vision insurance coverage. Eligible dependents include:

• Your legally married spouse* or state-registered Domestic Partner
• Your children** up through their 26th birth month
• Your children** who are age 26 or older and become mentally or physically disabled prior to age 26 and primarily depend on you for support (see the Summary Plan Document for more information)

Enrolling dependents requires proof of eligibility. To maintain coverage all requirements must be met within required deadlines. Provide the following documents to the health benefits department within 30 days of your date of hire:

• Certified marriage certificate
• Certified birth certificates (for children only)
• Certificate of state registered Domestic Partnership
• Legal guardianship orders
• Social Security cards, ITIN’s, (or equivalent IRS acceptable document) for all dependents

MAKING CHANGES DURING THE PLAN YEAR

The AUHSD plan year runs from January 1 to December 31. You may make changes to your benefit choices once a year during the open enrollment period. Elections you make will be effective for a full year, unless you terminate employment or have a qualified status change:

• A change in legal marital status (e.g., marriage, divorce or legal separation)
• A change in number of dependents (e.g., birth, adoption or death)
• A change in your/your spouse’s/your state registered Domestic Partner’s employment status (e.g., reduction in hours affecting eligibility or change in employment)
• A substantial change in your/your spouse’s/your state registered Domestic Partner’s benefits coverage
• A Qualified Medical Child Support order or other judicial decree
• Loss of other coverage

You have 30 days from the life event date to make changes to your coverage. Contact the health benefits department for more details. 

* Which does not include a spouse from whom you are legally separated.

** Children include your children, your step-children, children covered under a child support order, your state-registered domestic partner’s children, and children under your legal guardianship ordered by a court.

2027 HEALTH BENEFITS SHOWCASE

MEDICAL & PRESCRIPTIONS

DECIDING BETWEEN A PPO AND AN EPO MEDICAL PLAN

It's Your Choice

When reviewing your plan options, consider the medical needs of you and your family, access and availability of your preferred medical provider, and your income. If you’re looking at an EPO, take a close look at the network to determine if the choice of doctors and medical facilities are enough to meet your needs. A PPO can give you more flexibility and control of your medical services, including the potential to be covered for medical bills outside the network, but your personal medical costs could be higher. 

RATES, ID CARDS, & COORDINATION OF BENEFITS

Cost to You

Unless you are told otherwise by your HR department, there is no monthly premium cost for you and your eligible dependents to be enrolled in the AUHSD health plans.

ID Cards

Medical ID cards are issued for new enrollments and employees switching plans or adding dependents during an open or special enrollment period. Dental and vision cards are no longer issued. Providers verify coverage directly with the carriers (Delta and VSP).

Coordination of Benefits/Dual Coverage

Coordination of Benefits (COB) usually applies when you or a covered dependent are covered by multiple healthcare plans at the same time. For example, you and your spouse have coverage through each other’s employers; you each cover yourself and/or dependents.

COB designates the order in which the multiple health plans are to pay benefits. Under a COB provision, one plan is determined to be primary and its benefits are applied to the claim first. The unpaid balance is usually paid by the secondary plan to the limit of its responsibility. Benefits are thus "coordinated" among all of the health plans.

Coordination of benefits only applies if both healthcare plans allow for coordination of coverage. At AUHSD, the PPO plan may coordinate coverage while the EPO plan does not coordinate coverage. Read more about COB under the Forms & Resources tab.

PPO PLAN

Understanding PPO Plans – Network: Anthem Blue Cross PPO Prudent Buyer EPO/PPO

PPO plans provide more flexibility when picking a doctor or hospital. They also feature a network of providers, and there are fewer restrictions on seeing non-network providers. In addition, your PPO insurance will pay if you see a non-network provider for a covered service, although it may be at a higher cost to you. 

Some key points to consider when selecting a PPO plan:

• You can visit a doctor or specialist you’d like without having to see a PCP first.
• You can visit a doctor or go to a hospital outside the network and you may be covered; however, your benefits will be greater if you stay in the PPO network.
• PPO plans have a deductible that must be met before insurance pays on certain services.
• The AUHSD PPO Plan may coordinate benefits with other plans.

Find additional information under Forms & Resources

EPO PLAN

Understanding PPO Plans – Network: Anthem Blue Cross PPO Prudent Buyer EPO/PPO

An EPO gives you access to certain doctors and hospitals within its network. A network is made up of providers that have agreed to lower their rates for plan members and also meet quality standards. But unlike other insurance plan types, non-emergent services are only covered if you see a provider within that EPO’s selected network. 

Some key points to consider when selecting an EPO plan:

• You can see the doctor or specialist you’d like without having to see a primary care physician (PCP) first.
• Referrals are not required to be covered when you see a specialist or have a special test done.
• If you opt to see a doctor outside of the EPO selected network, there is no non-emergent coverage, meaning you will have to pay the entire cost of medical services.
• The AUHSD EPO Plan does not coordinate benefits with other medical plans.

DENTAL INSURANCE

Dental coverage is available through Delta Dental. You can select the Delta Dental PPO or DeltaCare USA (HMO) plan. It's easy to find a Delta dentist near you by clicking the FIND A DELTA DENTIST button.

The PPO dental plan covers several categories of benefits when the services are provided by a licensed dentist, and when they are necessary and customary under the generally accepted standards of dental practice. Visit a dentist in the PPO network to maximize your savings. Seeing a Delta PPO network dentist gives you a higher benefit level. If you see an out-of-network dentist, benefit amounts are subject to the Delta contracted fee schedule and you are responsible for the difference between the plan payment and the dentist's usual charge. The benefit level is lower when you see an out-of-network dentist.

DeltaCare USA (HMO)

Dental HMOs are designed to help you and your family maintain oral health and reduce your out-of-pocket costs. You will select an in-network primary care dentist at enrollment or a dentist near you will be assigned. Care must be provided by your selected or assigned dentist, there is no out-of-network coverage under the DeltaCare USA (HMO) plan. Orthodontia treatment is provided under the DeltaCare USA (HMO) dental plan.

There is a $10 copay for your vision exam and the allowances vary for lenses, frames, and contacts. Discuss your allowances with your vision provider.

You and your enrolled dependents are eligible for one exam and one set of lenses every 12 months. Frames are offered every 24 months and contact lenses are offered in lieu of lenses and frames.

Adding or Dropping a Family Member due to a Qualifying Life Event

Family members become ineligible for health benefits through divorce, legal separation, the end of a Domestic Partnership, or death.
