Note: Employees who work outside of the U.S. or who are covered by certain collective bargaining agreements may not be eligible for each program/benefit or benefit amount described below. Please contact your local HR Representative or your collective bargaining agreement, if applicable, for your specific program/benefit eligibility and benefit amounts.

  • Medical benefits

    You have a choice between two medical plan options: the PPO Plan and Consumer Driven Health Plan (CDHP). Both are available under the Aetna Open Choice POS II network and offer the same services and quality of care. Preventive care is covered at 100% with in-network providers in both plans. The difference is in when and how you pay. 

    No matter which plan you choose, your in-network medical costs are capped at $3,500 or $7,000 depending on how many people you cover. A Health Savings Account or Flexible Spending Account through HSA Bank can help cover these expenses depending on your plan guidelines.  

    Here are your in-network medical plan benefits at a glance.

    Out-of-network coverage will differ.  
    *The deductible applies to most non-preventive services before coinsurance begins. 
    **Your out-of-pocket maximum includes deductible, coinsurance and copays. 

  • Prescription drug benefits

    You will automatically have prescription drug coverage under CVS/Caremark when you enroll in an LYB Medical Plan. To look up prescription drug costs or find a pharmacy, click here. 

    There are many programs available that are designed to help you save.  

    For help with specialty medications, PrudentRx may be able to eliminate your out-of-pocket costs altogether. You can contact Member Support at 1-800-578-4403 to learn more about enrollment 

    For help with everyday medications, Rx Savings Solutions can identify lower cost alternatives such as taking a different form of the same drug (capsule versus tablet for example), trying a different pharmacy or taking the same ingredients in different pills. Get pharmacy support at 1-800-268-4476.
