Aetna HealthFund™
Choice of Base PPO Plan and Buy-Up Program

Base Plan

  • Annual Deductible: This plan contains a $3,000 deductible for an associate only or $6,000 for a family.
  • HealthFund:To help you pay the deductible, John Knox Village is providing a $500 HealthFund for associates enrolling only themselves; for those enrolling dependents (and therefore are subject to a family deductible of $6,000), the HealthFund amount will be $1,000.*
    - The HealthFund will be funded by John Knox Village.
    - The HealthFund will reimburse you for 100% of covered services and will be applied toward the first $500/$1,000 (associate only/family) of your deductible.
    - At the end of the year, any unused Health Fund dollars will be rolled over into the next benefit plan year to be applied to your deductible.

    In other words, if you are enrolled for associate-only coverage and incur significant claims, the first $500 of expenses will be paid from your HealthFund, leaving you a balance of $2,500 in deductible expenses to meet.

    * The fund amount is prorated based on effective date of coverage during the calendar year.

Maximum Annual Out-of-Pocket: $4,500 (associate only)/$9,000 (family)
