Essential Health Benefits

Essential Health Benefits include common coverage needs, such as visits to the doctor and hospital. They also cover some

services that were previously optional in health plans, including maternity coverage. All Affordable Care Act-compliant health

plans with effective dates in 2014 and 2015 must cover a standard set of health care service categories known as Essential

Health Benefits, with the exception of pediatric oral care. The 10 categories of Essential Health Benefits include:

• Ambulatory patient services (outpatient care without being admitted to a hospital)

• Emergency services

• Hospitalization

• Maternity and newborn care

• Mental health and substance use disorder services, including behavioral health treatment

(this includes counseling and psychotherapy)

• Prescription drugs

• Rehabilitative and habilitative services and devices. This general category includes coverage of a variety of

rehabilitation care, including services such as immediate post-operative, intensive, inpatient hospital rehabilitation to

outpatient rehabilitation therapies provided in a variety of settings. Habilitation services include ongoing, medically

necessary therapies provided to children with developmental disabilities and similar conditions who need habilitation

therapies to achieve functions and skills never before acquired.

• Laboratory services

• Preventive and wellness services and chronic disease management

• Pediatric services, including vision and oral care*

* Dean Health Plan does not offer pediatric dental services. This coverage is available on the Health Insurance Marketplace and can be purchased as a

stand-alone product. Please contact your insurance agent or the Marketplace if you wish to purchase pediatric dental coverage or a stand-alone dental

services product.
