Although the docs are "public", without the links the docs will be impossible for someone to find.

We have had issues when the retiree went to submit their SHAP fom while they are being reimbursed from their HRA for the same premium. To Acclaris, the processor for SHAP , it looks to them like the Retiree is trying to double dip and that is a No No.<br /> IBM has gone so far as to change the SHAP form, both pages, to discuss HRA/SHAP reimbursement. The say on page 2 that they Recommend that if you have SHAP, then request that first and after you get your $900 you can submit the balance of $358.80 to your HRA account. It does not work the other way. I wanted them to use the word MUST instead of recommend but they don't want to be that specific in telling you what to do.<br />One Exchange has also added the same warning on the instruction sheet for the Recurring Reimbursement of Premiums form.<br />See my posts on the Yahoo/IBM msg boards ibmpension, ibmretiree to see how to recover from the problem you will have. I have also put this on my Google files list per Plato's instructions and it should also be there if I did it correctly. attilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06699823405367107309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8123419132697929931.post-20281983386518229792015-02-22T15:33:58.187-08:002015-02-22T15:33:58.187-08:00My spouse gets SHAP so it it's just me for rec...My spouse gets SHAP so it it's just me for recurring expenses right now. I totally agree with you ... never thought I'd have to be so diligent about tracking everyone ... insurance, doctors, hospitals and OneX. It is unfortunate but I hope people understand there is no automatic goodness anymore.Platohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14060433813948859747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8123419132697929931.post-27320480935660389892015-02-22T09:33:46.435-08:002015-02-22T09:33:46.435-08:00Don't forget about applying for recurring expe...Don't forget about applying for recurring expenses for the MEDICARE payments.(104.90) for you and your spouse. That 209.80 each month helps get the HRA down quicker. The biggest issues I've had with that is they accept 1 of them and deny the other one a a duplicate. Once I called them and explained there are 2 of us any ask them to look at the form for who the reimbursement is for, then they have resolved it. I seems as though ONEX continues to have its issues. Never thought I would be keeping detailed records and using spreadsheets this much just to protect myself. arnold toolmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06003518346892610420noreply@blogger.com
