Understanding Lumenos Coverage and Plans

BenefitPackages.com Uncategorized

Selecting the right healthcare coverage is not exactly easy. There are so many different providers and so much to understand – and it is not necessarily written for the average person. The Lumenos plans from Blue Cross of California seek to make the healthcare coverage process a little bit easier by putting you in the driver’s seat. With a Lumenos plan, you and your doctor are in control of your healthcare, not your insurance company. It is what the insurance industry refers to as a “consumer-directed health plan”.

There are three plans available for California residents.

  1. HSA – This is a Health Savings Account plan that lets you save money for medical expenses. It is tax-free and earns interest – and it will carry over to the next year if you do not spend it.
  2. HIA – This is a Health Incentive Account plan that is funded by Blue Cross when you participate in wellness programs.
  3. HIA Plus – This is a Health Incentive Account Plus plan that is also funded by Blue Cross for participation in wellness programs – but Blue Cross also adds an additional $500/year for individuals or $1000/year for families to the account.
