ECS will continue to offer three medical plan options administered by Cigna. The chart on the following page is a brief
outline of the plan. Please refer to the Summary Plan Description (SPD) for complete plan details.

How Each Plan Works


• Cigna is one of the largest health insurance companies that offers a National Network.
• All plan options provided to you by ECS allow you and your dependents to access Network and Non-Network
providers. No matter where you are in the country, a Cigna Open Access Plus Network provider, pharmacy,
hospital, and convenience care clinic are likely nearby.
ECS offers a Base, Standard and Premium plans that all provide different levels of coverage and have different payroll
deduction costs associated with them.
These plans are all on Cigna’s Open Access Plus Network, so even if you must switch plans within ECS, you still have
access to the same providers.

Telemedicine – MDLIVE with Cigna


Telemedicine is provided to you through the ECS Cigna Plans. Telemedicine which gives you 24/7 access to US board-
certified doctors through the convenience of phone or video consults. It’s an affordable alternative to costly urgent care
and ER visits when you need care right away. It is a helpful service if you are on vacation, a business trip or away from
home. The providers can treat many medical conditions, including cold & flu symptoms, allergies, urinary tract infection,
sinus problems, and more! You can talk to a doctor anytime! ECS copay is $0.

Flexible Spending Account (FSA)
The Flexible Spending Account (FSA) plan allows you to set aside pre-tax dollars to cover qualified expenses you would
normally pay out of your pocket with post-tax dollars. The plan is comprised of a health care spending account and a
dependent care account. You pay no federal or state income taxes on the money you place in an FSA.

How an FSA works


• Choose a specific amount of money to contribute each pay period, pre-tax, to one or both accounts during the year.
• The amount is automatically deducted from your pay at the same level each pay period.
• As you incur eligible expenses, you may use your flexible spending debit card to pay at the point of service OR submit
the appropriate paperwork to be reimbursed by the plan.

Important Rules to Keep in Mind


• The IRS has a strict “use it or lose it” rule. If you do not use the full amount in your FSA, you will lose any
remaining funds.
• Once you enroll in the FSA, you cannot change your contribution amount during the year unless you experience a
qualifying life event.
• You cannot transfer funds from one FSA to another.
• Please plan your FSA contributions carefully, as any funds not used by the end of the year will be forfeited. Re-
enrollment is required each year.

Maximum Annual Election

Health Care FSA $2,496


Dependent Care FSA $5,000
Retirement Plans
401(K)
Eligible employees can participate in the Plan when you have completed 3 months of service. For purposes of elective
deferrals, your Entry Date will be the first day of the Plan Year quarter following the date you satisfy the eligibility requirements.
ECS will match 100% of your contribution up to the first 4% you contribute. Administrative and record-keeping services for
this Plan are provided by Capital Bank and Trust Company and American Funds.
ECS’s 401(k) offers a variety of investment options. If you have a qualified plan with your previous employer, you have the
option to roll over and consolidate the funds into your current Plan. You may change or discontinue your contributions at
any time and do have the option to start making contributions again at any time.

Employees can contribute up to $20,500 to their 401(k) plan for 2022.


Anyone age 50 or over is eligible for an additional catch-up contribution of $6,500 in 2022.
More details can be found with the Plan Administrator.

ESOP
Eligible employees can participate in the Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) retroactively to the first day of the plan
year (January 1) or July 1 during the plan year in which you have competed one (1) year of service depending on when
you obtained one (1) year of service. You must be 18 to be eligible. Employees who are leased or covered by a collective
bargaining agreement are not eligible to participate.
This employee benefit plan is designed to provide Participants with an opportunity to accumulate capital for their retirement
needs. ECS set up a trust fund in which ECS contributes cash for the ESOP to purchase stock. The ESOP can also borrow
money to purchase stock. Shares in the trust are allocated to individual employee accounts. ESOPs have a significant
impact on overall retirement savings, which is significant because only a third of working adults feel as they have adequately
saved for retirement. ESOP benefits extend beyond the financial benefits. Studies show that shared capitalism improves
the employee’s well-being, leads to greater job security and retention, and increases trust in the firm and management.
Please refer to the ESOP FAQs and Summary Plan Description for other general questions.

Voluntary Benefits
Accident
An accident can happen to anyone, and recovery can be costly. With Accident Insurance, you’ll receive a lump-sum payment
for a covered injury and related services. You can choose the payment in any way you choose- from expenses not covered
by your major medical plan to day-to-day costs of living, such as the mortgage or your utility bills. Plus, getting coverage is
easy and affordable with:
• Guaranteed Issue: no health questions asked!
• Easy payroll deduction of premiums (that will never increase due to your age)
• Benefits available for your spouse and dependent child(ren)
• Direct payment to you or to your beneficiary
• Coverage portability. If you change jobs, you can take the same benefits with you at the same cost.

Accident insurance provides benefits for covered accidental injuries, related services, and treatments. Examples include:
• Diagnostic exams, x-rays, and other emergency services
• Initial and follow up physician visits
• Ambulance transportation
• Hospital admission and confinement
• Follow-up/recovery services, including physical therapy and chiropractic chare
• And more….

Critical Illness
With Critical Illness insurance, you’ll receive a lump-sum payment when a covered illness is diagnosed. You can use the
payment in any way you choose, including:
Expenses not covered by your medical insurance:
• Deductibles and coinsurance
• Caregiver expenses
• Travel to and from treatment center
• Rehabilitation
Day-to-day living expenses:
• Rent or mortgage payments
• Groceries
• Childcare
• Utility bills
How does the coverage work?
• You and your dependents are eligible for coverage
• You choose the amount of coverage available at the time of enrollment
• A lump sum benefit is paid when you or a dependent are diagnosed with a covered illness while insured under the
policy
• If a previously covered illness returns, or diagnosed with an additional covered illness, benefits remain payable up
to the benefit maximum for as long as you are insured under the policy (subject to plan terms and conditions)
Voluntary Benefits, continued
Hospital Indemnity
Hospital Indemnity insurance provides a cash benefit in the event of an unexpected hospital stay for a covered
illness/injury. You and your covered dependents are paid a set benefit amount, depending on your plan and the
length of your stay. And you can use the payment in any way you choose – from medical expenses like deductibles,
to everyday costs, like housekeeping and childcare.

Benefits pay for hospital care, including:


• First day stay (hospital admission)
• Additional days in the hospital
• Days spent in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU)

Why do you need it?


Even if you have one of the best medical plans out there, it’s unlikely that your plan will cover all the costs incurred by
a hospital stay. Aside from hospital bills, there may be additional costs attached to time away from home, like meals,
travel, and lodging expenses for loved ones. That’s where Hospital Indemnity insurance can help. It can give you the
peace of mind to focus on what’s most important – getting better.

What else should you know?


Getting coverage is easy and affordable with:
• Guaranteed Issue
• Easy payroll deductions of premiums (that will never increase due to your age)
• Benefits available for our spouse and/or dependent child(ren)
• Direct payment to you or your beneficiary
• Coverage portability: if you change jobs, you can take the Hospital Indemnity insurance with you

In addition to financial support, Hospital Indemnity insurance provides services to help you focus on your recovery:

health concerns and care options
• AbilityAssist- 24/7 access to trained professionals and resources for assistance with the financial, legal, and
emotional issues that may follow a serious illness
