Such determination is binding on us. You shall not pay any of the costs associated with the services of an independent review organization. Should you submit information to us that is relevant to the resolution of the appeal of the grievance, and was not previously considered or reviewed by us: · We may reconsider the prior resolution. If we elect to reconsider, the independent review organization shall cease the external review process until the reconsideration is completed. · We shall notify you of a decision within 72 hours after the information is submitted, for a reconsideration, if making a decision in the standard timeline would seriously jeopardize the Insured’s life or health, or his or her ability to reach and maintain maximum function. · Under any other circumstances, we shall notify you within 15 days after the information is submitted. · If you do not agree with our decision, you may request that the independent review organization resume the external review process. · If we choose to not reconsider our initial resolution after receipt of the relevant new information, we shall forward such submitted information to the independent review organization not more than 2 business days after we receive it. Documents and other information created or received by the independent review organization or the medical review professional in connection with an external grievance review are not considered public records to which access is granted and will be treated in accordance with confidentiality requirements of state and federal law. · An independent review organization is immune from civil liability for actions taken in good faith in connection with an external review and its work product and/or determination are admissible in a judicial or administrative proceeding. However, the work product and/or determination do not, without other supporting evidence, satisfy a party’s burden of proof or persuasion concerning any material issue of fact or law. If you have the right to an external review of a grievance under Medicare, you may not request an external review of the same grievance under this process. Pursuing a resolution through the grievance process does not add to or otherwise change the terms of coverage included in this Policy.

Claims Procedure: When you or your beneficiary wish to file a claim under the Plan, you should contact your personnel office for claim forms and instructions for filing. Your Booklet/Certificate explains the procedure for filing a claim under the Group Insurance Policy. If your claim for benefits is denied in whole or in part, you will receive a written notice within the time required by ERISA from the date you filed your claim, stating the reasons why your claim was denied. You will then have the right, upon written notice from you or your authorized representative, to review that claim denial. The claim denial notice will include the name and address of the person you may ask for

such a review. Additional information about claims submitted and review procedures may be obtained by contacting your Plan Administrator. Your Rights under ERISA: As a participant in the Plan, you are entitled to certain rights and protections under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). ERISA provides that all plan participants shall be entitled to: Receive Information About Your Plan and Benefits · Examine, without charge, at the Plan Administrator's office and at other specified locations, such as worksites and union halls, all documents governing the Plan, including insurance contracts and collective bargaining agreements, and a copy of the latest annual report (Form 5500 Series) filed by the Plan with the U.S. Department of Labor and available at the Public Disclosure Room of the Employee Benefits Security Administration. · Obtain, upon written request to the Plan Administrator, copies of documents governing the operation of the Plan, including insurance contracts and collective bargaining agreements, and copies of the latest annual report (Form 5500 Series) and updated summary plan description. The Plan Administrator may make a reasonable charge for the copies. · Receive a summary of the plan's annual financial report. The Plan Administrator is required by law to furnish each participant with a copy of this summary annual report. Prudent Actions by Plan Fiduciaries In addition to creating rights for Plan participants, ERISA imposes duties upon the people who are responsible for the operation of the Plan. The people who operate your plan, called "fiduciaries" of the Plan, have a duty to do so prudently and in the interest of you and other Plan participants and beneficiaries. No one, including your employer, your union, or any other person, may fire you or otherwise discriminate against you in any way to prevent you from obtaining a benefit or exercising your rights under ERISA. Enforce Your Rights If your claim for a benefit is denied or ignored, in whole or in part, you have a right to know why this was done, to obtain copies of documents relating to the decision without charge, and to appeal any denial, all within certain time schedules. Under ERISA, there are steps you can take to enforce the above rights. For instance, if you request a copy of Plan Documents or the latest annual report from the Plan and do not receive them within 30 days, you may file suit in a Federal court. In such a case, the court may require the Plan Administrator to provide the materials and pay you up to $110 a day until you receive the materials, unless the materials were not sent because of reasons beyond the control of the Plan Administrator. If you have a claim for benefits which is denied or ignored, in whole or in part, you may file suit in a state or Federal court. If it should happen that Plan fiduciaries misuse the Plan’s money, or if you are discriminated against for asserting your rights, you may seek assistance of the U.S. Department of Labor, or you may file suit in a Federal court. The court will decide who should pay court costs and legal fees. If you are successful the court may order the person you have sued to pay these costs and fees. If you lose, the court may order you to pay these costs and fees, for example, if it finds your claim is frivolous. Assistance with Your Questions If you have questions about your Plan, you should contact the Plan Administrator. If you have any questions about this statement or about your rights under ERISA, or if you need assistance in obtaining documents from the Plan Administrator, you should contact the nearest office of the Employee Benefits Security Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, listed in your telephone directory or the Division of Technical Assistance and Inquiries, Employee Benefits Security Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, 200 Constitution Avenue, N.W., Washington, DC 20210.
