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. |

Aiming to show tangible improvements in reacting to disasters since Hurricane Katrina hit three years ago today, the Bush administration's top two disaster response officials were in Louisiana on Thursday to help prepare for Gustav. Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff and FEMA Administrator R. David Paulison met with Gov. Bobby Jindal in Baton Rouge, then hashed out plans with Mayor Ray Nagin and his preparedness team in New Orleans. As Gustav churned Thursday over Jamaica, officials at all levels of government in south Louisiana drafted contingency plans to anticipate, head off and, if necessary, repair any damage Gustav might cause. |
