Campaign for Ratepayers’ Rights Sample Clauses

Campaign for Ratepayers’ Rights. In the September 13, 2000 letter accompanying its request for intervenor reimbursement, XXX stated that “unlike other participants, [CRR] cannot recover its costs either from its ratepayers, taxpayers or from other business operations. CRR must depend entirely on a small, but dedicated, base of donors, and its resources are not at all equal to the costs of participation in a vast and multiparty proceeding such as this.” According to CRR, the organization had been a responsible intervenor in this docket and has made a contribution to the development of the record of decision.

Questions and answers about the Coverage Examples: What are some of the assumptions behind the Coverage Examples? • Costs don’t include premiums. • Sample care costs are based on national averages supplied by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, and aren’t specific to a particular geographic area or health plan. • The patient’s condition was not an excluded or preexisting condition. • All services and treatments started and ended in the same coverage period. • There are no other medical expenses for any member covered under this plan. • Out-of-pocket expenses are based only on treating the condition in the example. • The patient received all care from in- network providers. If the patient had received care from out-of-network providers, costs would have been higher. What does a Coverage Example show? For each treatment situation, the Coverage Example helps you see how deductibles, copayments, and coinsurance can add up. It also helps you see what expenses might be left up to you to pay because the service or treatment isn’t covered or payment is limited. Does the Coverage Example predict my own care needs?
