Aetna - CHI Health

SLEBC Insured - I wanted to send a quick note as SLEBC has been notified that CHI has officially opted to not renew their contract with Aetna. This is still an ongoing situation and with many similar situations, we have seen agreements reached after the 'deadline'. We will continue to provide updates as received on the status. Meritain has provided a list of providers who have opted to negotiate directly with CHI linked below. Members who are impacted by this negotiation should have already received notification from CHI regarding the potential to be OON.

If you would like to look up in-network providers, use the Aetna Open Choice PPO network option here<https://www.aetna.com/dsepublic/#/contentPage?page=providerSearchLanding&si…>.

22 Nov '24

You are in receipt of this email as a previously SLEBC covered employee of the State of Nebraska and are currently enrolled in the SLEBC Retiree Plan. SLEBC Open Enrollment for the 2025 plan year will be held from November 17th to November 25th, 2024. Elected changes will become effective January 1st, 2025. If you wish to make changes, please submit the necessary forms for Medical, Dental, and Vision coverage - if you do not have changes, you do NOT need to submit forms. The SLEBC Board is happy to report that we have been able to maintain the same coverages we are accustomed to with an addition of a few items. We are thankful that we do not have any major plan design changes to our medical, dental or vision plans. You will find slight increases in the medical rates due to the increasing costs seen with current inflation along with plan usage. As a self-funded health plan, this is a direct reflection of you being mindful of your utilization and using the tools available to make good healthcare decisions. We encourage you (and your family) to check in with your primary care provider for your annual preventative visit and continue to work toward being the healthiest you! Please 🙂 watch a 30-minute review of your benefits here<https://drive.google.com/file/d/173YC9l738b3xZnBX01ho2G9dqo6JAL3n/view?usp=…> <https://drive.google.com/file/d/173YC9l738b3xZnBX01ho2G9dqo6JAL3n/view?usp=…> - you will learn something, I promise! 2025 SLEBC Benefit Changes • Prescription Benefit Management in 2025 will be ServeYouRx and the formulary should cause very little disruption (less than 10 scripts). • Nutrition Counseling is now available in-network for a $15 copay with a licensed dietitian or nutritionist. • Out-of-Network Hearing Aid benefit will mirror In-Network benefits. • GLP-1 option for weight loss is available at a discounted rate through a reputable pharmacy - this is funded by the member directly. • There are no changes for dental or vision. There is an increase in your medical premium.
