The plan year for Colonial Life Insurance Products, The Local Choice (Anthem Health, Delta Dental of VA, and Anthem Blue View Vision), Flex Facts Health Savings Account, Delta Dental (Stand-Alone Policy), Aetna Vision (Stand-Alone Policy), and The Hartford Long-Term Disability runs from July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2027.

When do my deductions start? Deductions for Colonial Life Insurance Products, The Local Choice (Anthem Health, Delta Dental of VA, and Anthem Blue View Vision), Flex Facts Health Savings Account, Delta Dental (Stand-Alone Policy), Aetna Vision (Stand-Alone Policy), and The Hartford Long-Term Disability start July 2026 for all enrolled employees.

Why have my Medical Bridge benefits not started yet? The Health Screening Rider on the Colonial Medical Bridge plan has a 30-day waiting period for new enrollees. Coverage, therefore, will not begin until July 31, 2026.

Does the City of Martinsville contribute to my HSA? The City of Martinsville will contribute $60/month to all HSAs for employees enrolled in individual health coverage and $83.33/month for HSAs in dependent health coverage. Please Note: HSAs are optional and not automatically set up when you enroll in a High Deductible Health Plan. To receive the employer contribution, employees must enroll in an HSA during Open Enrollment.

When will I get my card? If you will be receiving a new debit card, whether you are a new participant or to replace your expired card, please be aware that it may take up to 30 days following your plan effective date for your card to arrive. Your card will be delivered by mail in a plain white envelope. During this time you may use manual claim forms for eligible expenses. Please note that your debit card is good through the expiration date printed on the card.

I want to sign my family up for benefits as well, what information will I need? If signing up for any coverage on your spouse and/or children, please have their dates of birth and social security numbers available when speaking with the Benefits Representative.

What does Pre-Tax vs. Post-Tax Change? Pre-Tax benefits take funds directly from your paycheck to cover benefits before going through State and Federal taxing process. Post-Tax collects funds for benefits after taxes have been taken out. Please be aware there are certain coverages that may be subject to federal and state tax when premium is paid by pretax deduction or employee contribution.

Can I change my benefit elections outside of the enrollment period? Elections made during this enrollment period CANNOT BE CHANGED AFTER THE ENROLLMENT PERIOD unless there is a family status change, otherwise known as a qualifying life event (Mid-Year Events), as defined by the Internal Revenue Code. Examples of Mid-Year Events can be found in the chart on the next page. Once a Mid-Year Event has occurred, an employee has 30 days to notify PGB’s VA Employee Services at 1-800-387-5955 to request a change in elections.

I have a pre-existing condition. Will I still be covered? Some policies may include a pre-existing condition clause. Please read your policy carefully for full details.

How an HSA Works

y An HSA is a personal savings account that allows you to set aside pre-tax dollars for current and future healthcare expenses for you and your dependents.

y You are eligible to open an HSA if you are enrolled in an HSAeligible high-deductible health plan.

y Your HSA is funded by payroll deduction, online banking transfer or a direct contribution.

y Use your funds to pay for current healthcare expenses, preserve your funds for tax-free growth, or invest your funds for long-term savings.

HSA Benefits

y HSA-eligible health plans typically have lower monthly premiums, giving you an opportunity to contribute those savings into an HSA.

y Your HSA stays with you, even if you leave your employer.

y Unlike an FSA, unused funds stay in your account from year to year and earn interest tax-free.

y Money goes in tax-free, grows tax-free and withdrawals are taxfree if used on eligible items.

y Once your account balance reaches $1,000, savings can be invested for growth, just like a 401k.

Investing your HSA Funds

A powerful tool for retirement savings

y Maintain a $1,000 balance in your cash account to start investing.

y Withdrawals for qualified medical expenses are tax-free.

y Move your investment funds to your cash account at any time.

Helpful Hints

y You must have funds in your HSA before you can spend them.

y You can change your contribution amount at any time.

y Save your receipts because the IRS may audit your HSA transactions.

Swipe your Flex Facts debit card to pay for eligible expenses or pay with your personal funds and reimburse yourself.

y C Copays, deductibles, coinsurance

y P Prescriptions

y D Dental exams, x-rays, orthodontia

y V Vision exams, frames, contact lenses

y Physical therapy and chiropractic care

y F First aid kits

y O Over-the-counter medications

y A And much more

y You can claim a tax deduction for any direct contributions you make to your account with post-tax dollars.

If you were diagnosed with cancer, you could have expenses that medical insurance doesn’t cover. In addition to your regular, ongoing bills, you could have indirect treatment and recovery costs, such as child care and home health care services.

Help when you need it most

Cancer coverage from Colonial Life & Accident Insurance Company can help protect the lifestyle you’ve worked so hard to build. It provides benefits you can use to help cover:

■ Loss of income

■ Out-of-network treatment

■ Lodging and meals

■ Deductibles and co-pays

One family’s journey

SECOND OPINION

Travel expenses

When the couple traveled several hundred miles from their home to a top cancer hospital, they used the policy’s lodging and transportation benefits to help with expenses.

Paul and Kim were preparing for their second child when they learned Paul had cancer. They quickly realized their medical insurance wouldn’t cover everything. Thankfully, Kim’s job enabled her to have a cancer insurance policy on Paul to help them with expenses.

SURGERY

Out-of-pocket costs

The policy’s benefits helped with deductibles and co-pays related to Paul’s surgery and hospital stay.

With cancer insurance:

■ Coverage options are available for you and your eligible dependents.

■ Benefits are paid directly to you, unless you specify otherwise.

■ You’re paid regardless of any insurance you may have with other companies.

■ You can take coverage with you, even if you change jobs or retire.

Cancer insurance provides benefits to help with cancer expenses — from diagnosis to recovery.

TREATMENT

RECOVERY

Experimental care Follow-up evaluations

Paul used his plan’s benefits to help pay for experimental treatments not covered by his medical insurance.

Paul has been cancer-free for more than four years. His cancer policy provides a benefit for periodic scans to help ensure the cancer stays in check.

If your dependent child is diagnosed with cancer, we will pay two and a half times ($2,500 - $25,000) the chosen benefit amount.

If cancer impacts your life, you should be able to focus on getting better — not on how you’ll pay your bills. Talk with your Colonial Life benefits counselor about how cancer insurance can help provide financial security for you and your family.

Although illnesses and accidents are often associated with disabilities, mental disorders can also leave you unable to earn an income.

If you’re disabled with a covered psychiatric or covered psychological condition, disability insurance from Colonial Life & Accident Insurance Company pays a monthly benefit that can help provide financial support while you focus on recovery.

Psychiatric and psychological benefit

There is a maximum six-month benefit period limitation for any one occurrence of a psychiatric or psychological condition. There is a three-month benefit period limitation if you have a three-month benefit period.

There is a 24-month cumulative lifetime maximum benefit period for all psychiatric or psychological conditions. This maximum includes a combination of total disability and partial disability occurrences.

MEDICAL BRIDGE BENEFIT PREMIUMS

Term Life Insurance

Life insurance protection when you need it most

Life insurance needs change as life circumstances change. You may need different coverage if you’re getting married, buying a home or having a child.

Term life insurance from Colonial Life provides protection for a specified period of time, typically offering the greatest amount of coverage for the lowest initial premium. This fact makes term life insurance a good choice for supplementing cash value coverage during life stages when obligations are higher, such as while children are younger. It’s also a good option for families on a tight budget — especially since you can convert it to a permanent cash value plan later.

With this coverage:

n A beneficiary can receive a benefit that is typically free from income tax.

n The policy’s accelerated death benefit can pay a percentage of the death benefit if the covered person is diagnosed with a terminal illness.

n You can convert it to a Colonial Life cash value insurance plan, with no proof of good health, to age 75.

n Coverage is guaranteed renewable up to age 95 as long as premiums are paid when due.

n Portability allows you to take it with you if you change jobs or retire.

Spouse coverage options

Dependent coverage options

Two options are available for spouse coverage at an additional cost: You may add a Children’s Term Life Rider to cover all of your eligible dependent children with up to $20,000 in coverage each for one premium.

1. Spouse Term Life Policy: Offers guaranteed premiums and level death benefits equivalent to those available to you –whether or not you buy a policy for yourself.

2. Spouse Term Life Rider: Add a term rider for your spouse to your policy, up to a maximum death benefit of $50,000; 10-year and 20-year are available (20-year rider only available with a 20- or 30-year term policy).

The Children’s Term Life Rider may be added to either the primary or spouse policy, not both.

If a licensed health care practitioner certifies that you have a chronic illness, you may receive an advance on all or a portion of the death benefit, available in a one-time lump sum or monthly payments.1 A chronic illness means you require substantial supervision due to a severe cognitive impairment or you may be unable to perform at least two of the six Activities of Daily Living.2 Premiums are waived during the benefit period.

Critical illness accelerated death benefit rider

If you suffer a heart attack (myocardial infarction), stroke or end-stage renal (kidney) failure, a $5,000 benefit is payable.1 A subsequent diagnosis benefit is included

Waiver of premium benefit rider

Premiums are waived (for the policy and riders) if you become totally disabled before the policy anniversary following your 65th birthday and you satisfy the six-month elimination period.3

2 Activities of daily living are bathing, continence, dressing, eating, toileting and transferring.

3 You must resume premium payments once you are no longer disabled.

EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS

If the insured dies by suicide, whether sane or insane, within two years (one year in ND) from the coverage effective date or the date of reinstatement, we will not pay the death benefit. We will terminate this policy and return the premiums paid without interest, minus any loans and loan interest to you.

REQUIRED HEALTH CARE NOTICES

Newborn and Mothers’ Health Protection Act

Group health plans and health insurance issuers generally may not, under federal law restrict benefits for any hospital length of stay in connection with childbirth for the mother or newborn child to less than 48 hours following vaginal delivery, or less than 96 hours following a cesarean section. However, federal law generally does not prohibit the mother’s or newborn’s attending provider, after consulting with the mother, from discharging the mother or newborn earlier than 48 hours (or 96 hours as applicable). In any case, plans and issuers may not, under federal law, require that a provider obtain authorization from the plan or the issuer for prescribing a length of stay not in excess of 48 hours (or 96 hours).

Women’s Health and Cancer Rights Act

In October 1998, Congress enacted the Women’s Health and Cancer Rights Act of 1998. This notice explains some important provisions of the Act. Please review this information carefully. As specified in the Women’s Health and Cancer Rights Act, a plan participant or beneficiary who elects breast reconstruction in connection with a covered mastectomy is also entitled to the following benefits: 1. All stages of reconstruction of the breast on which the mastectomy has been performed: 2. Surgery and reconstruction of the other breast to produce a symmetrical appearance; and 3. Prostheses and treatment of physical complications of the mastectomy , including lymphedemas. Health plans must provide coverage of mastectomy related benefits in a manner to determine in consultation with the attending physician and the patient. Coverage for breast reconstruction and related services may be subject to deductibles and insurance amounts that are consistent with those that apply to other benefits under the plan.

Premium Assistance Under Medicaid and the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP)

If you or your children are eligible for Medicaid or CHIP and you’re eligible for health coverage from your employer, your state may have a premium assistance program that can help pay for coverage, using funds from their Medicaid or CHIP programs. If you or your children aren’t eligible for Medicaid or CHIP, you won’t be eligible for these premium assistance programs but you may be able to buy individual insurance coverage through the Health Insurance Marketplace. For more information, visit www.healthcare.gov.

If you or your dependents are already enrolled in Medicaid or CHIP and you live in a State listed below, contact your State Medicaid or CHIP office to find out if premium assistance is available.

If you or your dependents are NOT currently enrolled in Medicaid or CHIP, and you think you or any of your dependents might be eligible for either of these programs, contact your State Medicaid or CHIP office or dial 1-877-KIDS

NOW or www.insurekidsnow.gov to find out how to apply. If you qualify, ask your state if it has a program that might help you pay the premiums for an employer sponsored plan.

If you or your dependents are eligible for premium assistance under Medicaid or CHIP, as well as eligible under your employer plan, your employer must allow you to enroll in your employer plan if you aren’t already enrolled. This is called a “special enrollment” opportunity, and you must request coverage within 60 days of being determined eligible for premium assistance. If you have questions about enrolling in your employer plan, contact the Department of Labor at www.askebsa.dol.gov or call 1-866-444-EBSA (3272).

COBRA CONTINUATION OF COVERAGE

INTRODUCTION: You’re getting this notice because you recently gained coverage under a group plan. This notice has important information about your right to COBRA continuation coverage, which is a temporary extension of coverage under the Plan. This notice explains COBRA continuation coverage, when it may become available to you and your family, and what you need to do to protect your right to get it. When you become eligible for COBRA, you may also become eligible for other coverage options that may cost less than COBRA continuation coverage.

The right to COBRA continuation coverage was created by a federal law, the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (COBRA). COBRA continuation coverage can become available to you and other members of your family when group health coverage would otherwise end. For more information about your rights and obligations under the Plan and under federal law, you should review the Plan’s Summary Plan Description or contact the Plan Administrator.

You may have other options available to you when you lose group health coverage. For example, you may be eligible to buy an individual plan through the Health Insurance Marketplace. By enrolling in coverage through the Marketplace, you may qualify for lower costs on your monthly premiums and lower out-of-pocket costs. Additionally, you may qualify for a 30-day special enrollment period for another group health plan for which you are eligible (such as a spouse’s plan), even if that plan generally doesn’t accept late enrollees.

What Is Cobra Continuation Coverage?: COBRA continuation coverage is a continuation of Plan coverage when it would otherwise end because of a life event. This is also called a “qualifying event.” Specific qualifying events are listed later in this notice. After a qualifying event, COBRA continuation coverage must be offered to each person who is a “qualified beneficiary.” You, your spouse, and your dependent children could become qualified beneficiaries if coverage under the Plan is lost because of the qualifying event. Under the Plan, qualified beneficiaries who elect COBRA continuation coverage [choose and enter appropriate information: must pay or aren’t required to pay] for COBRA continuation coverage.

If you’re an employee, you’ll become a qualified beneficiary if you lose your coverage under the Plan because of the following qualifying events:

• Your hours of employment are reduced, or

• Your employment ends for any reason other than your gross misconduct.

• If you’re the spouse of an employee, you’ll become a qualified beneficiary if you lose your coverage under the Plan because of the following qualifying events:

• Your spouse dies;

• Your spouse’s hours of employment are reduced;

• Your spouse’s employment ends for any reason other than his or her gross misconduct;

• Your spouse becomes entitled to Medicare benefits (under Part

A, Part B, or both); or

• You become divorced or legally separated from your spouse. Your dependent children will become qualified beneficiaries if they lose coverage under the Plan because of the following qualifying events:

• The parent-employee dies;

• The parent-employee’s hours of employment are reduced;

• The parent-employee’s employment ends for any reason other than his or her gross misconduct;

• The parent-employee becomes entitled to Medicare benefits (Part A, Part B, or both);

• The parents become divorced or legally separated; or

• The child stops being eligible for coverage under the Plan as a “dependent child.”

Sometimes, filing a proceeding in bankruptcy under title 11 of the United States Code can be a qualifying event. If a proceeding in bankruptcy is filed with respect to City of Martinsville and that bankruptcy results in the loss of coverage of any retired employee covered under the Plan, the retired employee will become a qualified beneficiary. The retired employee’s spouse, surviving spouse, and dependent children will also become qualified beneficiaries if bankruptcy results in the loss of their coverage under the Plan. When is COBRA continuation coverage available?

The Plan will offer COBRA continuation coverage to qualified beneficiaries only after the Plan Administrator has been notified that a qualifying event has occurred. The employer must notify the Plan Administrator of the following qualifying events:

• The end of employment or reduction of hours of employment;

• Death of the employee;

• The employee’s becoming entitled to Medicare benefits (under Part A, Part B, or both).

For all other qualifying events (divorce or legal separation of the employee and spouse or a dependent child’s losing eligibility for coverage as a dependent child), you must notify the Plan Administrator within 60 days after the qualifying event occurs. Applicable documentation will be required i.e. court order, certificate of coverage etc.

How is COBRA continuation coverage provided?

Once the Plan Administrator receives notice that a qualifying event has occurred, COBRA continuation coverage will be offered to each of the qualified beneficiaries. Each qualified beneficiary will have an independent right to elect COBRA continuation coverage. Covered employees may elect COBRA continuation coverage on behalf of their spouses, and parents may elect COBRA continuation coverage on behalf of their children.

COBRA continuation coverage is a temporary continuation of coverage that generally lasts for 18 months due to employment termination or reduction of hours of work. Certain qualifying events, or a second qualifying event during the initial period of coverage, may permit a beneficiary to receive a maximum of 36 months of

coverage.

COBRA CONTINUATION OF COVERAGE

There are also ways in which this 18-month period of COBRA continuation coverage can be extended:

Disability extension of 18-month period of COBRA continuation coverage: If you or anyone in your family covered under the Plan is determined by Social Security to be disabled and you notify the Plan Administrator in a timely fashion, you and your entire family may be entitled to get up to an additional 11 months of COBRA continuation coverage, for a maximum of 29 months. The disability would have to have started at some time before the 60th day of COBRA continuation coverage and must last at least until the end of the 18-month period of COBRA continuation coverage.

Second qualifying event extension of 18-month period of continuation coverage: If your family experiences another qualifying event during the 18 months of COBRA continuation coverage, the spouse and dependent children in your family can get up to 18 additional months of COBRA continuation coverage, for a maximum of 36 months, if the Plan is properly notified about the second qualifying event. This extension may be available to the spouse and any dependent children getting COBRA continuation coverage if the employee or former employee dies; becomes entitled to Medicare benefits (under Part A, Part B, or both); gets divorced or legally separated; or if the dependent child stops being eligible under the Plan as a dependent child. This extension is only available if the second qualifying event would have caused the spouse or dependent child to lose coverage under the Plan had the first qualifying event not occurred.

Are there other coverage options besides COBRA Continuation Coverage?: Yes. Instead of enrolling in COBRA continuation coverage, there may be other coverage options for you and your family through the Health Insurance Marketplace, Medicare, Medicaid, Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP), or other group health plan coverage options (such as a spouse’s plan) through what is called a “special enrollment period.” Some of these options may cost less than COBRA continuation coverage. You can learn more about many of these options at www.healthcare.gov.

Can I enroll in Medicare instead of COBRA continuation coverage after my group health plan coverage ends?: In general, if you don’t enroll in Medicare Part A or B when you are first eligible because you are still employed, after the Medicare initial enrollment period, you have an 8-month special enrollment period to sign up for Medicare Part A or B, beginning on the earlier of

• The month after your employment ends; or

• The month after group health plan coverage based on current employment ends.

If you don’t enroll in Medicare and elect COBRA continuation coverage instead, you may have to pay a Part B late enrollment penalty and you may have a gap in coverage if you decide you want Part B later. If you elect COBRA continuation coverage and later enroll in Medicare Part A or B before the COBRA continuation coverage ends, the Plan may terminate your continuation coverage. However, if Medicare Part A or B is effective on or before the date of the COBRA election, COBRA coverage may not be discontinued on account of Medicare entitlement, even if you enroll in the other part

of Medicare after the date of the election of COBRA coverage. If you are enrolled in both COBRA continuation coverage and Medicare, Medicare will generally pay first (primary payer) and COBRA continuation coverage will pay second. Certain plans may pay as if secondary to Medicare, even if you are not enrolled in Medicare.
