UPMC HEALTH PLAN
AMONG TOP 10
IN THE NATION
Enroll by Friday, Nov. 17
A new report from U.S. News &
World Report and the National
Committee for Quality Assurance
(NCQA) has placed UPMC Health
Plan on the prestigious “honor roll”
of the top 10 health plans in the
country. The report, “America’s
Best Health Plans,” also stated
that the Health Plan was the highest
ranked plan in Pennsylvania for
the second year in a row.
The rankings, which include more
than 320 plans, are based on a
combination of clinical performance,
member satisfaction, and NCQA
accreditation status. The Health Plan
registered the top scores statewide
in several measures of care,
including women’s health (timeliness
of prenatal and postpartum care),
children’s health (access to primary
care physicians for age groups 25
months to 6 years, 7 to 11 years,
and 12 to 19 years), and appropriate
use of antibiotics and treatment for
sore throat in children.
O
pen Enrollment, which began Nov. 1,
is your annual opportunity to make
changes to your benefit elections.
With My HUB, reviewing your current elections, identifying your per-pay costs, and
updating your elections for 2007 is easy and
convenient.
Simply click on the My HUB icon on
Infonet (http://infonet.upmc.com) and log
on to your personalized My HUB
homepage. Once in My HUB, select the
Benefits enrollment link under the My
Benefits section to access your Open
Enrollment information. Click on the i to
access the Open Enrollment information
or choose “Enroll” to start your Open
Enrollment session.
There are links available throughout the
enrollment session to assist you with
questions or to provide additional
information. Use the links to find
information about changes in the benefits,
clarify any unique requirements, or access
tools, such as the medical plan decision guide
or FSA calculator.

UPMC Health Plan was also highest
ranked in the state in several
behavioral health categories:

• follow-up after hospitalization

Recently, UPMC Health Plan also
received the top score nationwide in
breast cancer screening for the third
consecutive year. This means Health
Plan female members were screened
for breast cancer at a higher rate
than were members of any other
surveyed health plan in the United
States.
“We’re so pleased to be among
the top 10 health plans in the nation
and the highest ranked plan in the
state,” says Diane Holder, president
of UPMC Health Plan and the UPMC
Insurance Services Division.“In
partnership with our providers, we
place special emphasis on the high
quality of our preventive programs
and it shows in these outstanding
results. Our members are receiving
the highest caliber of care available,
which has a lasting impact on the
health of the community.”
You may log on to My HUB from home
or work at any computer with Internet access,
and you may edit your elections as often as
needed before Nov. 17. If you experience
problems logging on to My HUB, contact the
UPMC Help Desk at 412-647-HELP (4357).
Benefit questions should be directed to
the UPMC Employee Service Center at
1-800-994-2752, option 3.
D
o you often wonder what happened to
the requisition that you faxed?
Perplexed about when payment will be
submitted to a vendor? Not sure where to find
inventory catalogues? UPMC Supply Chain
Management is launching e-Procurement
(e-Pro), a user-friendly online system that
streamlines the entire purchasing process, from
requisition through payment.
UPMC’s e-Pro is a module of Peoplesoft,
accessed via My HUB, making it available to
staff designated as requesters at work, at home,
or anywhere there’s a computer with Internet
access.
When a requester enters an order for goods
or services, e-Pro will automatically route it for
electronic approval. Through e-Pro, users will
be able to use online catalogues of materials
that are “preferred,” for which UPMC can
negotiate lower prices based on the large
volume purchased systemwide. Also, e-Pro
integrates purchasing, accounts payable, and
general ledger modules, so it will allow you to
track your order through the purchasing
process. You’ll be able to view purchase orders
(along with who approved them and when),
receipts, invoices, and payments.
Currently in use at UPMC St. Margaret,
UPMC Braddock, UPMC McKeesport,
UPMC South Side, UPMC Bedford
Memorial, UPMC Horizon, and Western
Psychiatric Institute and Clinic, e-Pro is being
phased into use at a few hospitals and
business units at a time, with systemwide
implementation envisioned by spring 2007.
The positive effects are definitely being
felt at UPMC St. Margaret, the first UPMC
site to implement e-Pro. “It’s been very
successful here,” says Cindy Dorundo, vice
president of finance at that hospital. “e-Pro
has reduced a lot of redundancies because
people don’t have to make follow-up calls to
see if their requisitions were received. And it
has really expedited the approval process.”
dramatically
improving
Besides
requisition tracking, e-Pro speeds the
requisition process, facilitates budgetary
control, and drives data accuracy.
“The current e-Pro deployment is the
first step in a comprehensive electronic
procurement strategy that will continue to
develop over the coming months,” explains
Jim Szilagy, UPMC’s chief supply chain
officer. “Supply Chain Management’s focus is
to create an optimized buying process
enabled by technology that is user-friendly,
efficient, and controlled.”

KEEP YOUR
BENEFICIARY
INFORMATION
UP TO DATE
Do you know who would receive the
proceeds of your group life insurance
policies through UPMC if something
were to happen to you?
Open Enrollment, under way until
5 p.m. Friday, Nov. 17, is the perfect
opportunity to review and update
your beneficiary designations so that
your loved ones receive the proceeds
that your coverage provides.
When reviewing your elections for
Open Enrollment, take the time to
update your beneficiary information.
If you have designated beneficiaries
through My HUB in the past, you will
see those designations in the Covered Beneficiaries box. If you do not
see any beneficiaries listed or you
want to change who is listed, select
the Add/Review Beneficiaries button
to enter those changes. Detailed
printable instructions are available
online in My HUB to assist you.
UPMC provides basic life and accidental death and dismemberment
(AD&D) insurance to eligible full-time,
flexible full-time, and job-share staff
in an amount equal to their base
salary. Eligible part-time staff are
provided $10,000 in basic life and
AD&D coverage. Eligible staff also
can purchase additional supplemental life and AD&D insurance for
themselves and eligible dependents
during Open Enrollment.
Put more money in your pocket
FSAs remain viable option to lower your taxes in 2007
F
lexible spending accounts (FSAs) are a
great way to reduce your taxable
income and set money aside to pay for
health care and/or dependent care expenses.
FSA deductions are taken from your pay
on a pretax basis, which reduces your taxable
income. You pay less in taxes and have
money set aside to pay for your out-ofpocket expenses.
By establishing a health care FSA, the
funds deducted from your pay are available
for you to cover the cost of eligible medical,
dental, or other health care expenses for you
and your immediate family members.
Copays for office visits, prescription drugs,
and over-the-counter medications can be
paid for with a health care FSA. You can use
a dependent care account to pay for day care
expenses for your children under age 13
while you work or attend school. A
dependent care FSA also can be used to pay
for eligible elder care expenses.
IRS modifies FSA debit card
guidelines
The ADP FlexDirect debit card has made
it more convenient to access your FSA dollars
and pay for eligible expenses at the point
of sale. However, updated Internal Revenue
Service (IRS) guidelines will change the way
staff can use FSA debit cards.
Beginning Jan. 1, 2007, cardholders will
experience an increase in the number of
instances when they will be asked to submit
receipts to ADP FlexDirect, the FSA
administrator, even for purchases that have
been made in the past without substantiation, such as refills for prescription drugs.
It is critical that you save your receipts for all
FSA card transactions and submit your
receipts to ADP when requested in order to
document your claim.
If documentation is not received by ADP
in the requested timeframe, the transaction
will be deemed an ineligible expense, and
you will be required to reimburse the plan.
Additionally, the FlexDirect cards will be
limited to those businesses designated as
health care-related merchants and to those
vendors who use a special reporting system to
identify items purchased. Health care-related
merchants include physician offices, dental
offices, hospitals, and most pharmacies.
It is unclear if the debit cards will be
accepted at pharmacies located within a retail
store. Currently, the majority of nonhealth
care-related retailers do not report the
necessary information to identify the items
purchased so that the transaction can be
verified as an eligible purchase from an FSA.
As in the past, eligible expenses can
always be submitted for reimbursement
using a paper claim. While this may reduce
the convenience a little, the tax savings
remain the same.
UPMC continues to work with ADP to
streamline the documentation process and to
reduce the number of receipts that you will
need to submit to ADP.
For more information on enrolling in an
FSA or changes on the use of the debit card,
review your customized Open Enrollment
information available through My HUB or
log on to the Benefits section of UPMC

or women, midlife may mean the onset
of physical and psychological changes
never before experienced. Any woman
between the ages of 35 and 65 may find herself suddenly living with symptoms that were
the punch lines of yesterday’s jokes or the catalyst for giggles by younger generations.
For most women, the route approaching
midlife is similar — but once a woman
reaches midlife, the map is not as straightforward. Symptoms can range in severity and
timing of onset may differ. But when
symptoms do occur, there is now a resource
offered by a group of clinical experts who
specialize in perimenopause and menopause:
the Women’s Midlife Health Center at
Magee-Womens Hospital.
The Women’s Midlife Health Center
offers a holistic approach to perimenopause
and menopause, encompassing expertise in
gynecology, internal medicine, reproductive
endocrinology, cardiology, complementary
and alternative medicine, gastroenterology,
and psychiatry. The experts offer consultation and treatment to women with simple
or complex midlife symptoms and associated
health conditions that may be exacerbated
by midlife.
Treatment is not the only option for
menopause. Education is a key component
in steering midlife women toward optimal
health. Information related to women’s
health is available at the on-site Women’s
Resource Center at Magee-Womens Hospital
and through educational venues such as
UPMC’s “Alive & Well” speaker series, and
public health screenings are scheduled
throughout the year.
Women’s Midlife Health Center staff
may help coordinate physician visits with
tests or other exams that may be prescribed,
including mammograms, DEXA scans
(to check bone density), blood tests, and
ultrasounds. All these tests are available at
Magee-Womens Hospital. In one day and
one convenient place, it is possible to see all
of the experts it would normally take three or
four weeks to access.
Experts at the Women’s Midlife Health
Center know women better. For women who
encounter midlife health issues, there is no
need to feel lost or alone. This timely and
intelligent medical approach offers the means
to move forward with confidence into the
next phase of life.

Newly arrived in Pittsburgh 18 months ago, Ms.
Thames, who had been running since late college, was
looking for a way to meet people and get involved in
the community. TNT offered the opportunity to train
with a group, receive coaching and a personalized
training plan, and help raise money for a good cause.
“My grandmother passed away from lymphoma,”
says Ms. Thames. “This was a win-win-win situation
— I met people who shared my hobby, received
coaching help to better prepare me for the marathon,
and was able to support an organization that is
helping others with lymphoma.”
While Ms. Thames ran a marathon, Team in
Training also offers support for people who want to
participate in a triathlon or century (100-mile) bike
ride. People of all experience levels — from beginners
to lifelong athletes — are welcome. TNT representatives also assist participants in the fund-raising aspect
of the program.
“The support offered by the coaches and training
partners made it a wonderful, unique experience,” says
Ms. Thames. “I encourage anyone who is interested to
check it out.”

Quitters wanted for
Great American Smokeout
I
t’s true: Quitters win. But when it comes
to smoking, quitters may need help. The
support of friends and family during an
attempt to quit smoking can mean a great
deal.
That’s the message UPMC Health Plan
wants to get out in conjunction with the
American Cancer Society’s 30th annual
Great American Smokeout on Thursday,
Nov. 16.
In partnership with UPMC and several
of its business units, UPMC Health Plan will
support the Smokeout by offering special
presentations and exhibits throughout the
week. Watch for information on your
campus about these events. The Health Plan
also is encouraging nonsmokers to become
Smokeout “partners,” by providing support
and positive reinforcement for a friend’s
efforts to quit. Call the UPMC Health Plan
health coaches at 1-800-807-0751 for tips on
providing positive support.
If you are ready to quit, it is important to
know that the right mix of support,
planning, and perhaps medication can help
you quit for good, regardless of how many
times you have tried.
