    • Your dependent children up to age 26 (unless disabled and approved to be covered on the plan as an adult dependent), including your natural children, stepchildren, legally adopted children and children placed with you in the process of adoption. See your medical plan summary plan description for eligibility details.
  • Union-represented employees if provided for in the collective bargaining agreement.

medical plan rates

Your monthly contribution is based on the plan you choose and your family coverage level. See 2016 Medical Plan Rates.

The Core Medical Plan and High Deductible Medical Plan are administered by Aetna and cover the same services.  Under both plans, you can see any provider, but you’ll save when you use a provider who participates in the plan’s network. In addition, network preventive care is paid 100% with no deductible. And, prescription drug coverage is provided through Express Scripts.

The differences between the plans are the monthly contributions for coverage, deductibles, copayments/coinsurance and out-of-pocket maximums. In addition, the High Deductible Medical Plan offers a separate Health Savings Account (HSA), which allows you to set aside money on a pre-tax basis to pay for eligible expenses now or in the future.

In Southern California, CRC also offers coverage through Kaiser Permanente and UnitedHealthcare HMOs (Health Maintenance Organizations). With these plans, you select a primary care physician to coordinate all your care. Covered medical services typically must be received from a specific network of doctors, hospitals and other medical providers. You pay a fixed copayment for most services. Copayments and monthly contributions vary by option.

Your Cost for Coverage

You and CRC share the cost of coverage. The medical coverage you select — employee only, employee plus one dependent or family — and the plan you choose determine your monthly pre-tax contribution amount.
