CelticSaver HSA

 


The CelticSaver HSA health plan is a qualified high deductible health plan designed to provide you with major medical coverage including up to $7,000,000 of health insurance protection, combined with a Health Savings Account (HSA) option to make your health plan even more affordable. 

Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) are savings accounts that are coupled to high-deductible health insurance policies.  You can deposit tax-deductible money into the HSA and use it to pay health care expenses throughout the year that aren't covered by your health insurance plan.

Coverage Synopsis:

CelticSaver HSA PPO Plan

After you have met your deductible (one deductible for the entire family), the plan pays 100% of all covered expenses, up to $7 million per person.  Eligible expenses for medical services and supplies incurred for preventive care in an asymptomatic individual are covered up to $300 per person, per calendar year, including up to $50 for routine eye exams (after coverage has been in effect 90 days). Plus, no deductible or co-payment is required. Manipulative care is covered up to $500 per person, per calendar year.

CelticSaver HSA Managed Indemnity Plan

This plan offers you the same comprehensive coverage as above, with the flexibility to select the doctors and hospitals of your choice.  This plan is more popular in very rural areas where there may not be many doctors in the PPO network.

Full Credit for Meeting Prior Deductibles:  If you choose to replace your current insurance coverage with the CelticSaver HSA health plan, you'll receive credit for satisfying any portion of a previous carrier's deductible met during the same calendar year.  This valuable benefit is very rare to find in today's health insurance market.

The deductible for each of these plans needs to be met only once for the entire family.  Both plans cover up to $500 per person in preventive care after the deductible, including routine physicals.  Expenses for mammogram exams, prostate screenings, and age-appropriate well-child visits and routine immunizations (up to age 13) are not subject to the deductible.

These plans both qualify as HSA-eligible.  Combining a Health Savings Account with any CelticSaver HSA plan allows you to make tax-deductible contributions, pay medical expenses with pre-tax dollars, and earn tax-deferred interest.  This account works much like an IRA, except you may use your tax-free savings for qualified medical expenses your health plan does not cover, such as your deductible, dental, eyewear, and most types of alternative medicine (see the HSA qualified medical expenses page).  If you do not use these funds, they are always yours and continue to grow tax-deferred.

Optional Riders:

Supplemental Accident Coverage

Many of our customers add a supplemental accident plan to their coverage.  These plans cover a set amount ($2,000, $5000, or $10,000) for any accident, after a $100 deductible.  Having a supplemental accident plan can greatly reduce the exposure of a high-deductible plan.  These plans are not associated with Celtic Insurance Company, and must be purchased separately.  Complete information is available on our Accident Plans page.

Rates:

Preferred rates without riders are available on our instant quote page. The quoted rates are for the $7 million maximum benefit, and do not include any optional benefits. Rates depend on gender, smoking status, zip code, and health status.

The premium can be paid monthly or quarterly, or by an automatic monthly bank draft. The bank draft will occur on the premium due date each month. The initial premium can be paid with a check or credit card. If you choose to receive a monthly or quarterly billing statement, a $10 per bill fee will be charged.

PPO Network:

Celtic's PHCS network includes more than 320,000 physicians and ancillary care providers in 50 states and the District of Columbia, serving 1.3 million PPO members.  The nationwide Celtic PPO network assures you access even when traveling or relocating to another state.

Celtic also partners with the largest network of pharmacies in the country to give you prescription drugs at the lowest pre-negotiated rates.  Show your Celtic ID card at any of the 50,000 participating pharmacies nationwide and receive substantial savings on your prescription drug purchases.

Underwriting:

Underwriting of your application with Celtic normally takes five business days, unless medical records are needed, then the process could take longer depending on the doctor's office. Automatic underwriting provides same day approvals for applications that are submitted online and are clean. Celtic is fairly lenient compared to many other insurance companies, and often accepts applicants who may have been turned down by other insurance companies.

It is standard practice to request a Blood Pressure Inquiry on all applicants who are currently being treated for or who have recently discontinued treatment for high blood pressure.  Certain conditions may be waived with a temporary rider (usually for one to two years), or an indefinite rider.

Celtic HSA Colorado

Effective dates:

The earliest your coverage can go into effect is the day after you have signed your application.  You may request an effective date any time between 1 and 60 days after you sign your application.

Please note, if you are requesting an effective date of less than 21 days from the time you complete the application, you may not receive notification of your approval until after your effective date.  If you have claims during this period, they will be eligible for coverage if submitted after you have been approved.  Also note that you will be billed starting on your requested effective date, even if you have not yet been notified that you have been approved.  This is very good for someone who does not have any present coverage and would like for their benefits to begin right away.  For those who are already covered, it is suggested that you maintain your current coverage in force until you have received notice from either ColoHealth or directly from Celtic that your coverage has been approved and is in force.

Because underwriting can sometimes take 3 weeks or longer, if you do not currently have coverage we recommend that you apply for a Short Term plan.  This plan can go into effect tomorrow, giving you important protection until your new permanent plan is in place.
