Covered as for any other condition (limited to partners, proprietors or corporate officers who are not covered by a Workers' Compensation Act or other similar law)
Pre-Existing Conditions A pre-existing condition is one for which there has been diagnosis, treatment (including the use of prescribed drugs), or medical advice within the six month period prior to the effective date of coverage or a condition for which symptoms existed within the six month period prior to the date of coverage and for which a prudent person would have ordinarily sought treatment.

Pre-existing conditions will not be covered until a member has been continuously enrolled under this plan for 9 (nine) months. In some cases, Asuris Northwest Health will apply credit for pre-existing conditions if the person enrolling has been covered by a prior group or individual health benefit plan that is considered "creditable" coverage, at any time during the 63 (sixty-three) day period immediately preceding the receipt date of the application.

*  At this time, this service is provided only by participating or recognized providers.
**  At this time, this service is provided only by recognized providers.
***  Prescriptions obtained from non-participating pharmacies will not be covered except
        outside the service area or for cases of medical emergency.

Copay: (applies to Clarity 70 plan) There is a per-visit copay for each office call/home visit billed as such by a provider in the office, home, or hospital outpatient department (waived for surgery, for radiation and chemotherapy, for spinal manipulations, or if you are directly admitted to the hospital as an inpatient). Copays do not apply toward the deductible or to the coinsurance maximum.

Cost Containment Provisions: 
All hospital and skilled nursing facility admissions must be medically necessary. When outside the service area, preadmission approval should be obtained to ensure that full plans benefits will be provided.

Emergency Care:  In the event of a medical emergency inside the service area, benefits will be provided at the level specified for a Preferred Plan provider. Benefits for recognized providers will be based on the recognized provider's actual charge for the service. Outside the service area, benefits will be provided at the level specified below.

Care Outside the Service Area: 
All care received outside the service area, whether or not a medical emergency, will be covered at 80% (Clarity 80), 70% (Clarity 70) or 50% (Clarity 50) of the allowed amount, except benefits for prescription drugs and vision hardware (Clarity 80 and 70 plans) will be provided at the levels specified. Any balances of charges not covered by this plan will be your responsibility.

Annual Coinsurance Maximum:  For medically necessary services rendered by a Preferred Plan, participating, or recognized provider in the service area, the benefits of this plan will be provided at the percentage of the allowed amount as specified above after the deductible has been met. Unless otherwise specified, all benefits are subject to the annual deductible in addition to any copays and coinsurance. When you have reached the annual coinsurance maximum for Preferred Plan or out-of-area provider services only, this plan will provide benefits at 100% of the allowed amount for the remainder of the calendar year for Preferred Plan or out-of-area providers, unless otherwise specified. Any balances of charges not covered by this plan will be your responsibility to pay. The annual deductible, copays, outpatient rehabilitation, prescription drugs and vision hardware (Clarity 80 and 70 plans), and most services provided by participating or recognized providers do not apply to the annual coinsurance maximum. The maximum coinsurance amount per family is three times the individual coinsurance amount.

Waiting Periods:  No benefits are provided for treatment relating to a transplant until you have been covered under this or a prior plan with Asuris Northwest Health for 12 consecutive months. No benefits will be provided for preexisting conditions until you have been covered under this plan for nine consecutive months, unless you were continuously covered for at least nine months under the immediately preceding creditable plan.
