Compare the Plans

ITW offers three medical plan options. You decide which one works best for you and your family. To get started, take a closer look at how the plans compare.

Overview

All three plans use the same medical provider network (Blue Cross Blue Shield) and prescription drug provider (CVS Caremark). You can use any provider you choose, but you save more in all three plans when you use an in-network provider because you receive discounted pricing. All plans cover preventive care — eligible routine services, including wellness-related lab tests and cancer screenings — at no cost to you when you use in-network providers. All the plans cover the same services, like doctor visits, hospital care, lab work and X-rays. And they all cover preventive generic medications at no cost to you. But what and how you pay for care are different.

How the Plans Work

HealthSaver

 

You pay for care.

You pay the full cost of most care and prescriptions until you meet the deductible (the amount you pay before ITW starts to share the cost of most services with you).

You can open a Health Savings Account (HSA). 

ITW will contribute up to $500 (if you cover yourself only) or up to $1,000 (if you cover one or more family members).* You can contribute, too.

You can pay for care with money from your HSA, or you can pay out of pocket and save your HSA money for later. The choice is yours.

You get free preventive care.

In-network preventive care and preventive generic medications are covered 100%.

* Prorated for enrollment after January 1.

PPO Plans

 

You pay for care.

You pay the full cost of most care until you meet the deductible (the amount you pay before ITW starts to share the cost of most services with you).

The exception: You pay a copayment (flat dollar amount) for in-network doctor office and virtual visits — without meeting the deductible.

You can enroll in a pre-tax Health Care Flexible Spending Account (FSA). 

Use it to pay for out-of-pocket medical expenses (ITW doesn’t contribute to this account).

You get free preventive care.

In-network preventive care and preventive generic medications are covered 100%.

HealthSaver

 

You and ITW share costs.

Once you meet the deductible, you pay a percentage of the cost — 20% in-network and 40% out-of-network — for most eligible expenses. That percentage is your coinsurance. ITW pays the rest.

PPO Plans

 

You and ITW share costs.

Once you meet the deductible, you pay a percentage of the cost — 20% in-network and 40% out-of-network — for most eligible expenses. That percentage is your coinsurance. ITW pays the rest.

For emergency or hospital care, you will pay a copayment and coinsurance — even after you meet the deductible.

HealthSaver

 

ITW pays 100% of remaining costs.

There’s a limit to how much you have to pay toward eligible expenses during the year — called the out-of-pocket maximum. If you reach the out-of-pocket maximum, ITW will pay 100% of eligible expenses for the rest of the year.

PPO Plans

 

ITW pays 100% of remaining costs.

There’s a limit to how much you have to pay toward eligible expenses during the year — called the out-of-pocket maximum. If you reach the out-of-pocket maximum, ITW will pay 100% of eligible expenses for the rest of the year.

Note: There are separate maximums for medical care and prescription drugs.
