Message-ID: <mailman.1045.1463154868.35801.oebbbusman@listsmart.osl.state.or.us>

Dear Business Managers, Superintendents & Benefits Administrators:

Our OEBB website (www.oregon.gov/oha/oebb<http://www.oregon.gov/oha/oebb>) may experience a short period of downtime this morning as we migrate to a more streamlined, user-friendly design.

This update will not affect the MyOEBB Enrollment system, just the public-facing informational website. If you normally use a link on our site to access the MyOEBB Admin Module, here is a link you can use during this morning's transition: https://myoebb.org/oebb/!bms.main

We hope these updates improve the ease-of-navigation and your overall experience of the site. Some pages and links will necessarily change, but we tried to keep the most popular page URLs the same, so most bookmarks should continue to work after the changeover.

If you have difficulty finding anything you're looking for, or if you have any feedback on the new site design, please contact me directly at jackie.cowsill at oregon.gov<mailto:jackie.cowsill at oregon.gov>. We'll continue to make improvements based on the feedback we receive.

Thank you for your patience during this morning's transition.

Subject: [OEBBBUSMAN] MyOEBB EE Plan Management opens Monday,
 May 16th until Friday, June 17th
Message-ID: <mailman.1382.1463444739.35801.oebbbusman@listsmart.osl.state.or.us>

Hello,

Welcome to EE Plan Management for the 2016-17 plan year.  EE Plan Management opened today, Monday, May 16th and continues through Friday, June 17th.  Our goal is to provide you with a quick update on the status of the plans and rates for the 2016-17 plan year and let you know MyOEBB is ready for the 2016-17 plan selection process.  The Board met on April 26th and approved the plan offerings, benefit changes, and rates for the upcoming 2016-17 plan year.  For access to the rates and plan offerings, click on the link below:

http://www.oregon.gov/oha/OEBB/Pages/Plans-Offered.aspx

The Board made several changes to the medical and vision plan offerings from Moda.  Please click on the link below for highlights of these changes:

http://www.oregon.gov/oha/OEBB/Documents/OEBB%202016-17%20Benefit%20Highlights.pdf

Some of the changes explained in the document link above include the expiration of Moda Medical and Vision Plans and the creation of new Moda Medical and Vision Plans:

[cid:image001.png at 01D1AF97.F4038950]
[cid:image002.png at 01D1AF97.F4038950]
A change that will affect EE Plan Management this year is the expansion of the Moda Synergy Network medical plan options into the following counties:

  *   Douglas
  *   Deschutes
  *   Crook
  *   Jefferson

This means that either the Summit or Synergy Network plans are available to OEBB members in all counties with the exception of Coos and Curry.  The Moda Alder PPO Medical Plan is available in Coos and Curry counties because it is not available as part of the Synergy network in these areas. In all other counties the Moda Alder plan is available as part of the Summit or Synergy networks.

Moda Medical Plans Alder through Dogwood (PPO, Summit or Synergy) can be used independently or with an HRA, but Moda Evergreen Plan (PPO, Summit or Synergy) must be paired with a Health Savings Account (HSA) at the employee level.

Kaiser Permanente opened their newest facility, Valley River Dental in Eugene.  This gives entities access to Kaiser Dental in Lane County in addition to the existing Kaiser service area.  Your entity can select this newest Kaiser Dental Plan offering without having to select Kaiser Medical or Vison Plans.

The Summit, Synergy and Kaiser Permanente plans will be available for selection based on the zip code of your entity.  If these plans are available in your area, you will be able to select them as a plan option.  If you would like to add a plan that isn't available in your area, please contact OEBB by email at oebb.benefits at oregon.gov<mailto:oebb.benefits at oregon.gov> or by phone at 1-888-469-6322 for assistance.  OEBB will be happy to review your request and guide your entity with decisions.

Open enrollment is required this year. All OEBB members will be required to re-enroll in medical, dental and vision coverages for 2016-17 during the 2016 Open Enrollment period to have coverage (or to opt-out or waive coverage) for themselves and their eligible dependents.  Life, disability, AD&D and long term care plans and employee assistance program (EAP) elections will continue without re-enrollment.

We ask that entity administrators enter the MyOEBB Administrative Module during this time to review new plan offerings for their employee groups and select plans.  OEBB staff is hosting many online Insurance Committee Webinars over the next month as well as making information available online in video and PDF formats.  For more information (including registering for a webinar) please click on the link below:

http://www.oregon.gov/oha/OEBB/Pages/Entity-Resources.aspx

You can contact an OEBB Benefit Analyst from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. PST Monday through Friday with questions concerning EE Plan Management by calling 1-888-469-6322 or by emailing us at oebb.benefits at oregon.gov<mailto:oebb.benefits at oregon.gov>.  Our goal is to make this plan selection time period as easy as possible for your Insurance Committee and benefit staff.  Please let us know how we can help, or if you have any questions.

Our first three webinars earlier this week had great attendance, and we had a lot of participation and questions. We are working on transcribing the Q&A and will post those to the website within the next few days. As the webinars continue, we?ll continue to update the Q&A on the site so everyone will have access to the same information, whether you tune in live or check the website later.

You can also watch the presentations ?on demand? at your convenience (these are the same presentations you?ll see during a live webinar), and download copies of the presentation slides and other handouts provided by the carriers. Everything is available on the website at: www.oregon.gov/oha/oebb/pages/entity-resources.aspx<http://www.oregon.gov/oha/oebb/pages/entity-resources.aspx>. (This is also where we?ll post the Q&A.)

--------------------------------------

And just a reminder, EE Plan Management is open now through June 17 so your entity can confirm the plan selections you wish to offer each employment group for the 2016-17 plan year. If you need assistance navigating the MyOEBB Admin Module and the EE Plan Management process, please don?t hesitate to contact us.

OEBB Member Services staff are available Monday - Friday, 8:00 a.m. ? 5:00 p.m. by calling 1-888-4MyOEBB (1-888-469-6322) or by sending an email to oebb.benefits at oregon.gov<mailto:oebb.benefits at oregon.gov>.

Thank you for your continued support and cooperation as we prepare for a successful 2016-17 plan year.
