What do I do if I have dependent children or an eligible spouse who permanently lives outside the network area?
If you have dependant children or an eligible spouse who permanently lives outside your network area (non-resident dependents), their covered expenses will be paid as in-network benefits, even through services are provided out-of-network, provided they are otherwise covered by the Plan. In this situation, you’re responsible for ensuring that the services are medically necessary; non-medically necessary treatment is not covered. In addition, you’ll have to file claim forms to be reimbursed. You should not select a PCP for these non-resident dependents. To designate your dependant children or eligible spouse as non-resident dependents, call the UPS Benefits Service Center at 1-800-353-9877.
