IF YOU ARE DECLINING COVERAGE STOP AND READ CAREFULLY
I have decided to decline coverage for myself and/or my dependent(s). I acknowledge that my dependents and I may have to wait to
be enrolled until the next annual Open Enrollment Period or Special Enrollment Period due to a qualifying event. The available coverages have
been explained to me by my employer, and I have been given the chance to apply for the available coverages. Additionally, by signing below, I
certify, to the best of my knowledge or belief, that the reason I am declining coverage is accurate as indicated by the check marks above.

8. Acceptance of coverage (Signature required.)
California law prohibits an HIV test from being required or used by health insurance companies as a condition of obtaining
health insurance coverage.
ACKNOWLEDGMENT AND AGREEMENT: I understand and agree that by enrolling with or accepting services from Health Net and/or
DBP I and any enrolled dependents are obligated to understand and abide by the terms, conditions and provisions of the Plan Contract
or Insurance Policy. I represent that I have read and understand the terms of this application, and my signature below indicates that the
information entered in this application is complete, true and correct to the best of my knowledge and belief, and I accept these terms.
BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT: I, the Applicant, understand and agree that any
and all disputes between me (including any of my enrolled family members or heirs or
personal representatives) and Health Net, except disputes concerning adverse benefit
determinations as defined in 45 CFR 147.136, arising from or relating to the Evidence of
Coverage or Certificate of Insurance or my Health Net coverage, must be submitted to
individual, final and binding arbitration instead of a jury or court trial, and that I am waiving
all rights to class arbitration. This agreement to arbitrate applies even if other parties,
such as health care providers or their agents or employees, are involved in the dispute. I
understand that, by agreeing to submit all disputes, except disputes concerning adverse
benefit determinations, to final and binding arbitration, all parties including Health Net
are giving up their constitutional right to have their dispute decided in a court of law by a
jury. I also understand that disputes that I may have with Health Net involving claims for
medical malpractice (that is, whether any medical services rendered were unnecessary or
unauthorized or were improperly, negligently or incompetently rendered) are also subject
to final and binding arbitration. I understand that a more detailed arbitration provision is
included in the Evidence of Coverage or Certificate of Insurance. Mandatory Arbitration
may not apply to certain disputes if the Employer’s plan is subject to ERISA, 29 U.S.C. §§
1001-1461. My signature below indicates that I understand and agree with the terms of
this Binding Arbitration Agreement and agree to submit any disputes, except disputes
concerning adverse benefit determinations, to binding arbitration instead of a court of law.
