Introducing Lumenos Health Insurance…

A New Consumer-Directed Health Plan from Anthem Blue Cross of California

Shouldn't you be in charge of your healthcare decisions?

Now you can be. The new Lumenos Health Insurance plans from Anthem Blue Cross of California give you control over your healthcare. That means you control where your healthcare dollars go. Nothing comes between you and your doctor. And with the Lumenos Health Incentive Account plan, Anthem Blue Cross will actually reward you for making healthy decisions.

Lumenos is a consumer-directed health plan. That means that instead of relying on your insurance company to make health decisions for you, you and your doctor are in control of your healthcare.

Lumenos Plans At-A-Glance

California residents can enroll in one of three Lumenos Health Care plans:

Lumenos HSA — This Health Savings Account plan lets you save tax-free money to pay for your healthcare. And as long as you spend your HSA funds on qualified medical expenses, you won’t pay taxes on the withdrawals, either. Your money earns interest, and any funds you don't spend at the end of the year will carry over to your account for the next year.

Lumenos HIA — The Lumenos Health Incentive Account plan gives you a Anthem Blue Cross-sponsored account to help pay for your healthcare. Funds are added to your account by Anthem Blue Cross as a reward for participating in wellness programs, such as their weight management program.

Lumenos HIA Plus — The Health Incentive Account Plus plan also rewards you for healthy decisions, but adds an extra benefit. When you enroll in this plan, Anthem Blue Cross will add an extra $500 a year to your account ($1,000 for families). The extra money is contributed to your account every 3 months.

Once you meet your deductible, the Lumenos plans include 100% coverage for many healthcare needs, including visits to your doctor, inpatient hospital services, prescription drugs, and maternity care.

And like all health plans from Anthem Blue Cross of California, the Lumenos plans include access to the award-winning Anthem Blue Cross health management website. If you have health questions, the Nurse Advice Line is just a phone call away — and available 24 hours day. And the Personal Health Coach Program will give you assistance managing your special health needs.

The Anthem Blue Cross Lumenos plan gives you more control over your healthcare. But being able to make your own healthcare decisions doesn’t do you much good if paying for them is difficult.
That’s why Lumenos gives you 100% coverage on many of the most common healthcare expenses once you meet your deductible. And preventive care is fully covered before you meet the deductible — so staying on top of your health is affordable.

Comprehensive Coverage on Healthcare

Once you meet your deductible, the Lumenos plans will provide full coverage for:

Visits to your doctor
Inpatient hospital care
Outpatient surgery
Lab tests and X-rays
Maternity care
Emergency hospital services
Mental health care
Substance abuse services
Chiropractic care
In-home health and hospice care
Physical, speech and occupational therapy
Prescription drugs

Before you’ve paid your deductible, Lumenos will give you 100% coverage on many preventive care services. For adults, these services include:

Routine doctor visits
Screening tests for coronary artery disease, colorectal cancer, prostate cancer, diabetes, and osteoporosis
Mammograms, pelvic exams, Pap tests, and contraceptive management
Immunizations for Hepatitis A and B, Diptheria, Tetanus, Pertussis (Whooping cough), Varicella (chicken pox), Influenza (flu shot), Pneumonia, and Human Papilloma Virus (HPV)

For children, covered preventive care services include:

Routine doctor visits
Screening tests for vision, hearing, and lead exposure
Pelvic exams, Pap tests, and contraceptive management for females who are 18 years old, or have been sexually active
Immunizations for mmunizations for Hepatitis A and B, Diptheria, Tetanus, Pertussis (Whooping cough), Varicella (chicken pox), Influenza (flu shot), Influenza type B, pneumonia, and Human Papilloma Virus (HPV), Polio, Measles, Mumps, and Rubella

Remember: Lumenos covers these services before you’ve met your deductible.
The deductible on a Lumenos Health Care plan ranges from $1,500 – $5,000 for individuals, and $3,000 – $10,000 on family plans. After you've paid your deductible, you'll enjoy 100% coverage when you receive care from any of the 50,000 doctors and hospitals in the Anthem Blue Cross network.

Even before you’ve met your deductible, you'll save money as a Anthem Blue Cross member. Because Anthem Blue Cross negotiates for lower fees with care providers, your cost is substantially less than the doctor or hospital would normally charge. And with Lumenos you'll have healthcare funds to help pay for those those costs.

With the Lumenos HSA Plan, you'll get a Health Savings Account to help you pay for your healthcare. Any money you deposit in your HSA reduces your taxable income — so you pay less in taxes. You can use the money in your HSA for almost any health-related expense.

With the Lumenos HIA Plan,Anthem Blue Cross will give you money to spend on healthcare when you take advantage of weight management, smoking cessation, and other wellness programs.

With the Lumenos HIA Plus Plan, Anthem Blue Cross will give you an extra $500 a year ($1,000 if you're enrolled in a family plan) to spend on healthcare. You’ll also get rewarded when you participate in wellness programs.
