Frequently asked questions
HEALTH
Marpai is our third-party administrator (TPA) who processes and pays claims on behalf of Betenbough Companies’ healthcare plan. Marpai also assists in both consolidating and ensuring accuracy in billing with healthcare claims. As our TPA, they issue ID cards to policyholders, which must be shown to the provider prior to medical visits or procedures. Using the phone number listed on the card, your provider will call Marpai to verify coverage.
Your employer is self-funded for your health benefits. Your claims are “processed” by Marpai and “paid” by our Company once your deductible has been met.
Paragon will continue to process claims prior to January 1st. Marpai will process all 2025 claims.
Yes, Betenbough is working with UMC and Covenant to get them familiar with Marpai. If your provider is not familiar with Marpai, show them your insurance card. You can also call Nurse Sam or contact employeesupport@betenbough.com.

Deductible is the out-of-pocket costs before co-insurance kicks in. Premium is the amount taken from your bi-weekly paychecks to pay for the insurance policy.
Fees owed for services prior to reaching your deductible and percentages owed after deductible is reached. Co-Pays do not apply toward your deductible.
$3000 deductible applies to an employee only policy on HSA. $6000 deductible applies to family policy on HSA, regardless if one individual reaches the $3000 in costs.
Login to your Marpai account. Your deductible information should be listed here.
Please review the questions below to determine your eligibility for HSA contributions. If you answer yes to any of these questions, you do not qualify for HSA. Do you have other Health Coverage that is NOT a high deductible health plan? Are you enrolled in Medicare, Tricare, or Tricare for Life? Have you received specific medical benefits from the VA in the previous three months? Are you claimed as a dependent on someone else’s tax return? Are you enrolled in an HRA (Health Reimbursement Arrangement)?
If you do not choose to use your own bank, Ameriflex will be automatically selected as your bank. Access your account by visiting ameriflex.com or downloading the app to create an account.
You can go to https://www.irs.gov/publications/p502 to see what is all covered.
There is a cap on how much money can be contributed within a year, but not an overall cap on how much money can be in the account.
HSA can be used with Dependent Care FSA and Limited Care FSA, however, it can not be used with Traditional FSA.
Anybody within your household can use the HSA funds.
No, you are only eligible for HSA contributions with HDHP. You are still able to use the card until funds have ended.
• HDHP Has a higher deductible and lower monthly premium. HDHPs are a good choice for people who are generally healthy and don't need frequent care.
• PPO Has a lower deductible and higher monthly premium. PPOs are a good choice for people who have ongoing health issues or need regular medical care.
No, the plans are identical for what is covered the only differences are the details of premiums, deductibles, copays, etc.
•PPO is an embedded deductible
An embedded deductible is where each family member has an individual deductible in addition to the overall family deductible. When a family member meets his or her deductible before the family deductible is reached, the plan will begin paying according to the plan’s coverage for that member. If only one family member meets an individual deductible, the rest of the family must still meet the rest of the family deductible. Out-of-pocket expenses used to meet an individual deductible are counted toward meeting the family deductible.
Example - John and Jane have a family health plan that covers them and their three children. The PPO plan has a $500 individual deductible, and a $1,000 family deductible. Susan meets her $500 deductible after giving birth to their youngest child in February. The son, Tommy, breaks his leg and also meets his $500 individual deductible in March, which means the family deductible of $1,000 has now been met. Later in the year, when John needs carpal tunnel surgery, he only owes a copayment because the family deductible was already met.
•HSA is a family deductible
A family deductible is simpler than an embedded deductible. With a family deductible, there is only one deductible. All family members’ expenses count toward the family deductible until it is met. Then they are all covered with the health
plan’s usual copays or coinsurance. It doesn’t matter if one person incurs all the
expenses that meet the deductible or if two or more family members contribute toward meeting the family deductible. The family deductible is most common in high deductible health plans.
Example - Antonio and his family enroll in the HDHP plan. The family deductible is $6,000. Daughter Isabella had acute appendicitis that required surgery costing $2,300. Antonio required surgery that cost $4,000. The combined out-of-pocket expenses from Isabella’s and Antonio’s medical treatments met the family deductible. Any further medical care for anyone in the family will be covered by the insurance company according to the plan benefits.
FSA funds are use it or lose it. Funds will be forfeited after March 31st of the following year. Funds available the following year can only be used for transactions made before January 1st of prior year. There is a $640 rollover from previous year.
