Office of Group Benefits takes steps to assist plan members affected by Hurricanes

Many OGB plan members have been affected by Hurricane Gustav and
Hurricane Ike. To help plan members obtain the prescription drugs
they need, OGB has implemented two changes:

Plan members can refill prescriptions without the usual 30-
day restrictions.

Plan members who use an out-of-network pharmacy will pay
no penalties.

As always, a two-year history of medical claims for all covered
family members, including lab tests, X-rays and prescriptions,
can be viewed and printed using secure member login from the
OGB website (www.groupbenefits.org).
