Welcome to the Medical Plan Cost Estimator tool. The purpose of this tool is to assist you in choosing a medical plan and understanding the advantages of tax-free accounts by helping you estimate your annual medical expenses.

We respect your privacy. None of the information you use to calculate your out-of-pocket costs can be collected or tracked, including your expected annual medical care expenses. When you navigate away from the Medical Plan Cost Estimator tool, your information is automatically discarded. You can print your selections and criteria from the Medical Plan Cost Estimator tool. Please keep your printouts secure and use caution when printing to shared printers.

By using this tool, you are automatically agreeing that you understand and accept the following:

Estimates are based on national average medical costs. Because costs vary by provider and not all service details are included, actual costs may differ from what is shown in the Medical Plan Cost Estimator. Actual costs may also vary based on the order in which services are incurred and by the specific family member using a service (if applicable). In the event of any contradiction between the information contained in this tool and the Plan Documents, the Plan Documents shall govern in all cases.

This tool is designed to help you choose the medical plan that is right for you in two easy steps:

Then, you'll be able to see an estimate of what you'll spend annually for the upcoming year under each medical plan option. You can also use the savings account section to consider how much you should contribute on a before-tax basis to cover your expected medical expenses.

The following healthcare cost assumptions are used in the tool:

Please note that the estimates are based on average healthcare costs.

Because costs can vary by provider and by region, your actual costs may differ from the national averages used by this tool.

Unit costs above represent the average allowed charge for each service. The allowed charge is the amount of submitted charges eligible for payment for all claims according to health plan documents/contracts. Specifically, it is the amount eligible after applying pricing guidelines, but before deducting third party, copayment, coinsurance, or deductible amounts. The allowed charge represents the amount a plan will consider for adjudication for a covered service. The unit costs above include network and non-network services.

In the event of any discrepancy between the information contained in this tool and official plan documents, the latter shall govern in all cases.

Please select the group that applies to you.

Indicate whether you would like to include coverage for yourself, or for yourself and a spouse or domestic partner.

If you have more than three children, consider combining expenses for children to estimate your total family costs.

Please select the region that best represents where you live. While costs vary somewhat from region to region, the differences are generally not significant and may not affect your overall results.

Please indicate your salary band. Annual employee premiums will vary based on your selection.

Employees only get this funding if wellness requirements are met.

A premium surcharge may apply if an indicated individual is a tobacco user and has not participated a smoking-cessation program.

A premium surcharge may apply if your spouse/domestic partner is offered medical coverage through his or her employer but you choose to cover him or her instead.

Select "No" if your spouse/DP does not work or is not eligible for medical coverage through his or her employer. The surcharge would not apply.

Select "Yes" if your spouse/DP is eligible for medical coverage through his/her employer and is not enrolled in his or her employer's plan. The surcharge would apply.
