Plan Overview

The Copay health plans use the same high-quality Cigna network providers as the HSA plans. With the Copay plans, there is a set amount that you pay for in-network doctor’s office visits or fill a prescription. These do not count as part of your deductible. Other medical expenses go towards your deductible. You must meet the deductible before the plan begins paying a percentage of the cost. You can see the doctors you want to see without needing a referral to a specialist.

If you enroll a spouse in the Company Medical Plan, they will be included in a spousal audit for other medical coverage. If your spouse’s employer offers insurance and you elect to cover him/her on Mohawk’s Medical Plan, you will pay an additional $125 per month in medical contributions.

*New hires and those new to the medical plan as a result of a Qualifying Life Event, please visit the Biometrics & Coaching page for details.

Healthcare Flexible Spending Account (FSA) Option

Employees enrolled in the Copay Plan and employees age 65 and older may participate in the healthcare Flexible Spending Account (FSA) which acts much like the Health Savings Account (HSA). You set aside money from your paycheck to pay for qualified out-of-pocket expenses for you and your covered dependents. And, you don’t pay taxes on this money. With an FSA, you decide how much you want to contribute each year, up to the legal limits. The money in your Healthcare FSA can be used to cover out-of-pocket costs, such as copays, deductibles, coinsurance, dental expenses, prescription glasses, contact lenses, prescription drug costs and over-the-counter drugs with a prescription. 

For more information about the healthcare Flexible Spending Account (FSA), click here.
