How Aqua Works as Hard as Your Employees.

Single Policy

Courtney is a healthy 25-year-old who works for a small company. She doesn’t think she really needs health insurance, but decides to pick Aqua “just in case” something happens.

Her share of her monthly premium comes right out of her paycheck. Courtney begins the year with $500 in her Aqua Allowance and a $250 Aqua Health and Wellness Card.

Health Expenses – Year One

Courtney joins a gym:

  • Gym membership - $250.
    (100% covered by Aqua Wellness Card).

Courtney has an allergy flare up and an asthma attack:

  • Office visit with Allergist - $60.
    (100% covered by Aqua Allowance).
  • Generic medication - $20.
    ($7 copay through Aqua Pharmacy benefit).

While running down the stairs, Courtney trips and falls, spraining her ankle:

  • X-ray - $150.
    (100% covered by Aqua Allowance).
  • Office visit - $60.
    (100% covered by Aqua Allowance).
  • Generic prescription drugs - $20.
    ($7 copay through Aqua Pharmacy benefit).

Courtney spent $270 on medical expenses for the entire year out of her $500 Aqua Allowance – that means she gets to carry over $230 for the next year.

Aqua Family Policy.

Harry and Maria are both employed but this is the first time that they were able to buy health insurance through Maria’s employer, a small business. They and their two sons enroll in the Aqua family plan and Maria’s share of her monthly premium is automatically deducted from her paycheck.

They began the year with a $500 Aqua Health and Wellness Card and a $1,000 Aqua Allowance.

Health Expenses – Year One

Maria controls her diabetes by regular visits to her physician and medication:

  • Office visits every other month – $60 a visit ($360 total).
  • Lab work – $100
  • Generic medication – $30, 4 times a year ($120 total).

Maria & Harry’s sons get each get their well child check-ups and one had an ear infection requiring an antibiotic:

  • Office visit for ear infection – $60 a visit ($60 total).
  • Well Child Visits – $80 each ($160 total).
  • Generic antibiotics – $20.

Harry prides himself on being in great shape. This year he had an emergency appendectomy, which sent him to the hospital:

  • Gym Membership – $500.
  • Emergency appendectomy in-network hospitalization – $8,000.
  • Office visits and lab work – $600.
  • Generic medications – $20 each ($40 total).

Harry and Maria’s medical expenses were $1600 for the entire year – $1,000 was covered by the Aqua Allowance and they paid $600 out of their own pocket. They have to meet a $1,000 deductible for medical expenses under their plan after their Aqua Allowance is used up – $600 goes toward the $1,000 deductible.
