Current G.E.H.A member needing help?

1 These benefits are neither offered nor guaranteed under contract with the PSHB Program but are made available to all Enrollees who become members of a G.E.H.A health plan and their eligible family members.

2 In-network providers agree to limit what they will charge you. You pay a fixed dollar amount or percentage of the provider's negotiated amount.

3 The out-of-pocket maximum is the maximum amount of coinsurance, copays and deductibles you pay for all family members before G.E.H.A begins paying for 100% of covered services. This is a combined maximum for both medical care and prescriptions.

4 Calendar year deductible applies.

5 Refer to geha.com/Prescriptions for formulary and specialty coverage for specific medications.

6 If you choose a brand-name medication when a generic is available, you will be charged the generic copay plus the difference in cost between the brand-name and the generic.

7 Standard, you pay a $250 copay for advanced outpatient high tech imaging such as MRI, CT, PET, etc.

Visual representations do not imply endorsement by any government agency or department.

This is a brief description of the features of the G.E.H.A Standard health plan. Before making a final decision, please read the Plan's Federal brochure RI 71-021. All benefits are subject to the definitions, limitations, and exclusions set forth in the Federal brochure.
