summary. This coverage is not required to comply with certain federal market requirements for health insurance, principally those contained in the Affordable Care Act. Be sure to check
your certificate carefully to make sure you are aware of any exclusions or limitations regarding coverage of preexisting conditions or health benefits (such as hospitalization, emergency
services, maternity care, preventive care, prescription drugs, and mental health and substance use disorder services). Your certificate might also have lifetime and/or annual dollar
limits on health benefits. If this coverage expires or you lose eligibility for this coverage, you might have to wait until an open enrollment period to get other health insurance coverage.

ACCIDENT PROGAP
Need more than just accident coverage?
A standalone Accident ProGap plan takes
the next step by combining Accident
Expense insurance with benefits for critical
illness, hospitalization from sickness, and
accidental death and dismemberment, as well.
This plan pairs well with a medical plan to
help with out-of-pocket costs like deductibles.
DENTAL & VISION
Additionally, consider coverage for those
frequent family expenses with standalone
Dental & Vision insurance. Dental plans
help take care of your smile with benefits
for services ranging from routine cleanings
to root canals. Vision plans cover routine
eye exams and can help pay for glasses,
contacts or both.
OPTIONAL SUPPLEMENTAL
ACCIDENT BENEFIT
Reduce or eliminate your out-of-pocket
exposure for accident-related injuries.
Supplemental Accident helps cover your
deductible or other out-of-pocket medical
expenses (before the health insurance starts
paying covered expenses) for unexpected
injuries. See page 11 for details.

Minimum Essential Coverage in order
to avoid a penalty. The Short-term,
limited duration insurance benefits
under this coverage do not meet all
federal requirements to qualify as
“Minimum Essential Coverage” for
health insurance under the Affordable

coverage does not include all Essential
Health Benefits as required by the
ACA. Be sure to check your certificate
carefully to make sure you are aware of
any exclusions or limitations regarding
coverage of preexisting conditions or

In addition to the in-network benefits, these plans pay
reduced non-network benefits. Using non-network
providers will cost you more due to a non-network penalty -
see below.
For non-emergency care received from Non-
Network Providers you pay: (a) all charges above what is
considered an eligible expense; (b) a penalty of 25% of the
eligible expense, which does not count toward the deductible;
and (c) a deductible amount equal to 2 times the network
deductible. There is no out-of-pocket maximum for non-
network providers. Your actual out-of-pocket costs may be
more than the stated coinsurance because the
bill from a
non-network provider may not be used to calculate what
we pay and what you pay.

8 of 9 TriTerm Medical Value Plans
THIS INFORMATION APPLIES TO FLORIDA TRITERM MEDICAL VALUE PLANS ONLY.
General Exclusions, continued
No benefits are payable for expenses:
Resulting from experimental or investigational treatments,
or unproven services.
Expenses incurred by a covered person for the treatment of
tonsils, adenoids, middle ear disorders, hemorrhoids,
hernia, or any disorders of the reproductive organs will not
be covered during the covered person’s first 6 months of
coverage under the policy. This exclusion will not apply if
the treatment is provided on an emergency basis.
Optional Supplemental Accident Benefit for
TriTerm Medical Plans Form SA-S-1899RG-GRI and state variations
Reduce or eliminate your out-of-pocket exposure for an
accident-related injury for additional premium. Supplemental
Accident benefit matches your deductible, paying for treat-
ment of an unexpected injury within 90 days of an accident.
The benefit maximum amount ($2,500, $5,000, $7,500,
$10,000, $12,500, or $15,000) is per accident, per covered
person.
Application Fee
Nonrefundable $40 application fee required.
Coordination of Benefits (including Medicare)
If after coverage is issued, a covered person becomes
insured under another health plan or Medicare, benefits
will be determined under the Coordination of Benefits
(COB) clause.
COB allows two or more plans to work together so the total
amount of all benefits is never more than 100% of covered
expenses. COB also takes into account medical coverage
under auto insurance contracts. To determine which plan is
primary, refer to “order of benefits” in the certificate.
Dependents
For purposes of this coverage, eligible dependents are
your lawful spouse and eligible children. Eligible child must
be under age 31 and unmarried. A child that is unmarried
and remains chiefly dependent on you or your spouse for
support and maintenance due to mental or physical
disability will be considered an eligible child under the
policy/certificate regardless of age. The disabled child’s
coverage will not terminate due to age. The dependent may
remain covered for the duration of the coverage term.
Effective Date
Expenses for injuries and illnesses are eligible for
coverage as of your plan’s effective date. Your certificate
will take effect on the later of:
The requested effective date on your application; or

following conditions are satisfied:
- A. Your application and the appropriate premium payment
are actually received by us within 15 days of your

the agent or broker is properly licensed and appointed
to submit applications to GRIC.
* If mailed and not postmarked by the U.S. Postal Service or if the
postmark is not legible, the effective date will be the later of: (1) the
date you requested; or (2) the 5th day after the date received by GRIC.
If the application is sent by any electronic means including fax, your
coverage will take effect on the later of: (1) the requested effective date;

9 of 9 TriTerm Medical Value Plans
THIS INFORMATION APPLIES TO FLORIDA TRITERM MEDICAL VALUE PLANS ONLY.
Emergency
“Emergency” means an unforeseen or sudden medical
condition manifesting itself by acute signs or symptoms
which could reasonably result in death or serious disability
if medical attention is not provided within 24 hours.
Reduced Non-Network Benefits
These plans pay reduced non-network benefits.
Using non-network providers will cost you more due to a
non-network penalty - see below.
For non-emergency care
received from Non-Network Providers you pay: (a) all
charges above what is considered an eligible expense; (b) a
penalty of 25% of the eligible expense, which does not count
toward the deductible; and (c) a deductible amount equal to 2
times the network deductible. There is no out-of-pocket
maximum for non-network providers. Your actual out-of-
pocket costs may be more than the stated coinsurance
because the
bill from a non-network provider may not be
used to calculate what we pay and what you pay.
Non-Renewable
TriTerm Medical is issued for a specific period of time.
We may cancel coverage if there is fraud or material
misrepresentation made by or with the knowledge of a
covered person in filing a claim for benefits. Coverage will
remain in force until the termination date shown in your
certificate. We will notify you in advance of any changes in
coverage or benefits, unless the policy terminates earlier
for any reason stated in the Termination section.
Premium
The premium amount is expected to change for each
term.
Rating Factors
The plan, age and sex of covered persons, type and level
of benefits, tobacco use status, underwriting class status,
time the certificate has been in force, and place of
residence on the premium due date are some of the
factors used in determining your premium rates. From time
to time, we may change the rate table used. Each
premium will be based on the rate table in effect on that
premium’s due date. At least 31 days’ notice of any plan to
take an action or make a change, permitted by the
premium provision in the certificate, will be mailed to you
at your last address as shown in our records. We will make
no change in your premium solely because of claims
made under the certificate or a change in a covered
person’s health.
Termination
The certificate will terminate on the earliest of:
The date all covered persons under the certificate move
out of the state where the certificate was issued.
The primary insured’s death. If the
certificate
includes
dependents, it may be continued after the primary
insured’s death by a spouse, if a covered person;
otherwise, by the youngest child who is a covered person.
Nonpayment of premiums when due.
The termination date shown on the Data Page of the
certificate
.
The date we receive a request from you to terminate the
certificate
.
The date of the primary insured’s 65th birthday.
The date you accept any contribution from your employer
for any portion of the premium, or the date you and your
employer treat the plan as employer-provided insurance for
any purpose, including tax purposes.
