Lasso Healthcare MSA is an MSA with a Medicare contract. Enrollment in Lasso Healthcare MSA depends on contract renewal.

This information is not a complete description of benefits. Contact the plan for more information. Benefits may change on January 1 of each year.

You must continue to pay your Medicare Part B premium.

MSA Plans combine a high deductible Medicare Advantage Plan and a trust or custodial savings account (as defined and/or approved by the IRS). The plandeposits money from Medicare into the account. You can use this money to pay for your health care costs, but only Medicare-covered expenses count towardyour deductible. The amount deposited is usually less than your deductible amount, so you generally have to pay out-of-pocket before your coverage begins.

Medicare MSA Plans don’t cover prescription drugs. If you join a Medicare MSA Plan, you can also join any separate Medicare Prescription Drug Plan.

There are additional restrictions to join an MSA plan, and enrollment is generally for a full calendar year unless you meet certain exceptions. Those whodisenroll during the calendar year will owe a portion of the account deposit back to the plan. Contact the plan at 1-866-766-2583 TTY: 711 8 a.m. – 8p.m., seven days a week from October 1 through March 31, and Monday - Friday from April 1 through September 30 for additional information.

You must file Form 1040, US Individual Income Tax Return, along with Form 8853, “Archer MSA and Long-Term Care Insurance Contracts” with the InternalRevenue Service (IRS) for any distributions made from your Medicare MSA account to ensure you aren’t taxed on your MSA account withdrawals. You mustfile these tax forms for any year in which an MSA account withdrawal is made, even if you have no taxable income or other reason for filing a Form 1040.MSA account withdrawals for qualified medical expenses are tax free, while account withdrawals for non-medical expenses are subject to both income taxand a fifty (50) percent tax penalty.

Tax publications are available on the IRS website at http://www.irs.gov or from 1-800-TAX-FORM (1-800-829-3676).

MSA stands for Medical Savings Account. MSAs are one type of Medicare Advantage plan that the U.S. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, partners with private insurance companies to offer.

MSA Plans combine a high-deductible Medicare Advantage Plan and a trust or custodial savings account (as defined and/or approved by the IRS). The plan deposits money from Medicare into the account. You can use this money to pay for your health care costs, but only Medicare-covered expenses count toward your deductible. The amount deposited is usually less than your deductible amount, so you generally have to pay out-of-pocket before your coverage begins. [CMS REQUIRED DISCLAIMER].

Each member in the same region receives the same deposit amount; your health or age won’t affect the amount.

Although the IRS considers the MSA a “trust” or “custodial” account, this doesn’t mean someone else is in control. You own the money, and it is yours to use as you wish and at your direction.

Page 3 Agent Script and Notes

| Confidential and Proprietary to Lasso Healthcare

An MSA offers a combination of features unique to Medicare Advantage:

• An MSA is the only Medicare product that gives you money, and is the only product where you can potentially grow that money over time.

• It offers the broadest provider choice…any provider accepting Medicare. Lasso Healthcare MSA has no provider network, removing any in-network/out-of-network decisioning.

• Your MSA bank account funds can be used to pay any Qualified Medical Expense under IRS rules, tax-free. These Qualified Medical Expenses cover more than just Medicare Parts A and B, enhancing and expanding your overall health care coverage.

Page 5 Agent Script and Notes

| Confidential and Proprietary to Lasso Healthcare

As compared to other Medicare Advantage plans, there are additional restrictions to join an MSA plan, and enrollment is generally for a full calendar year unless you meet certain exceptions. Those who disenroll during the calendar year will owe a portion of the account deposit back to the plan. Contact the plan at 1-866-766-2583 TTY:711 8 a.m. – 8 p.m., seven days a week from October 1 through March 31, and Monday – Friday from April 1 through September 30 for additional information (REQUIRED CMS DISCLAIMER). We will discuss enrollment and disenrollment later in the presentation.

To join Lasso Healthcare MSA, you must:• Be Medicare-eligible• Live in the Lasso Healthcare MSA service area• Reside in the United States for 183 or more days during the calendar year• Not receive other health benefits that cover all or part of the annual MSA plan deductible, including benefits under an

employer or union group, the Department of Defense (or TRICARE), the Department of Veteran Affairs or the Federal Employee Health Benefit Plan

• Not be eligible for Medicaid• Not currently receive hospice benefits under Medicare• Not have end-stage renal disease; an exception is made if you have ESRD and were enrolled in another Medicare

Advantage plan that left Medicare and you haven’t yet joined a new Medicare Advantage plan.

1. When enrolling in Lasso Healthcare MSA, you will:2. Also be enrolled in and set up with your interest-bearing medical savings account with Lasso Healthcare’s banking

partner, Optum Bank. Optum Bank is a market leader in health savings and spending accounts. Your enrollment is not considered complete until the MSA account is set up.

3. Lasso Healthcare will deposit the initial monies into your MSA bank account. The initial deposit amount for all regions in 2019 is $2,520.

4. You will receive a special debit card linked to your medical savings account and can use it to pay for your health care expenses.

We will further discuss the special considerations these expenses have towards your plan deductible and income taxes, but first let’s take a closer look at the 2019 service area, deposit, and deductible.

Page 9 Agent Script and Notes

| Confidential and Proprietary to Lasso Healthcare

Lasso Healthcare MSA’s 2019 service area covers 17 states shown here. Every county in every covered state has been assigned one of the three regions or benefit plan designs.

Agents: The appendix features a detailed county map for each state in the service area. Insert the correct variable into the statement to say to the prospect:

Based on your state and county of residence, your plan would be Region <1, 2 or 3>.

Page 10 Agent Script and Notes

| Confidential and Proprietary to Lasso Healthcare

All three regions feature the same initial deposit of $2,520, but differ in the plan deductible amount and member responsibility. The member responsibility is simply the deductible amount minus the deposit amount.

Agent: Insert the correct variables into the statement to say to the prospect, based on their Region:

So, your county is in the Region <Region 1, 2 or 3> plan. Therefore, your deductible is <$6,700; $7,700 or $8,700>, making your member responsibility <$4,180; $5,180 or $6,180>.

Page 11 Agent Script and Notes

| Confidential and Proprietary to Lasso Healthcare

You can use the $2,520 deposit into your MSA savings account for any expense, medical or otherwise. However, there are special rules on what expenses count towards your plan deductible and how the funds are taxed.

For explanation purposes, let’s quickly cover the major categories of expenses. The first category is Medicare-covered expenses. Medicare-covered expenses are anything covered under Medicare Parts A and B; this would include most doctor visits, lab tests and hospital stays. These Part A and B expenses are a subset of what the IRS has defined as Qualified Medical Expenses, or QMEs. QMEs are generally the same type of services and products that otherwise could be deducted as medical expenses on your yearly income tax return.

Any QME that isn’t a Medicare-covered expense makes up the second category on this page. Products like Part D prescription drugs and services like dental, vision and long-term care are QMEs, but aren’t covered by Medicare Parts A and B. A full list of the services and products that count as QMEs can be found on IRS Publication #502 for the applicable tax year.

The final category is non-qualified expenses. Anything that’s not a QME falls into this category – food, clothing, entertainment, house payments, utility payments, gifts, and more.

With that understanding in mind, let’s take a look at how these expenses relate to the Lasso Healthcare MSA plan deductible.

As the 2019 deposit is less than the plan deductible, you will have some out-of-pocket expenses to cover on your own before your Parts A and B coverage through the plan begins. Once you reach your deductible amount, Lasso Healthcare pays 100% of any additional Medicare A/B-covered service you incur. However, once you reach the plan deductible, any further expenses on non-Medicare QMEs or non-qualified expenses remain your responsibility.

CMS regulates what expenses can count towards your Lasso Healthcare MSA plan deductible. Monies you spend on Medicare-covered services count towards your plan deductible, regardless if the funds are from your MSA bank account or out-of-pocket. Monies spent on non-qualified expenses or QMEs outside of Medicare-covered services do not count towards the deductible, regardless if the funds come from your MSA bank account or out-of-pocket.

Let’s also take a look at how the use of your MSA funds relate to IRS income tax liability. The money deposited and any interest earned is NOT taxed as long as you apply the monies toward any QMEs, whether they’re Medicare-covered or not. Any funds spent on non-qualified expenses are taxed as part of your income and subject to additional penalties.

Your encounters with your health care team operate the same under Lasso Healthcare MSA as they would under any Medicare Advantage plan with a deductible.

For example:1. Let’s say you see your Medicare-participating provider for an annual wellness visit. There are no copays required

under Lasso Healthcare MSA, so you pay nothing at the time of your visit.2. After the visit, your provider sends a bill to Lasso Healthcare; in this example, we’ll say the bill is $150 for the office visit.3. Lasso Healthcare re-prices claims to ensure any amounts to pay do not exceed 100% of the Medicare Fee-for-Service

rate; continuing on our example, the maximum Fee-for-Service rate for an annual wellness office visit is $100.4. Next, Lasso Healthcare checks your progress towards your deductible, to determine if you pay the claim or if Lasso

Healthcare pays. We’ll cover the specifics of that particular step on the next page.5. Regardless of how the claim ends up paid, Lasso Healthcare will send you an Explanation of Benefits (EOB) showing

you how the claim was re-priced, your progress towards your deductible, and if Lasso Healthcare paid the claim or if the claim is your responsibility.

Page 13 Agent Script and Notes

| Confidential and Proprietary to Lasso Healthcare

Going back to that deductible progress checkpoint…

A1: If you’ve met your plan deductible, Lasso Healthcare pays the provider the $100. There is no further action required by you in this instance.

B1: If you haven’t met the deductible, Lasso Healthcare notifies the provider of your responsibility to pay the $100.

B2: The provider will then invoice/bill you for the $100. Please note that providers not participating in Medicare, where allowed by state, are able to “balance bill” members for up to a total of 109.25% Medicare Fee-for-Service rates. However, only a very small percentage of providers do not participate in Medicare, and they are required to inform you prior to service.

B3: You can pay the $100 with your MSA funds or out-of-pocket. How you physically pay the bill will be dependent on the provider and how they’ve chosen to accept payments.

Page 14 Agent Script and Notes

There are some aspects of timing that are important to understand when choosing Lasso Healthcare MSA.

Enrollment is generally for a full calendar year, unless you meet certain exceptions. Enrollment periods are limited to the Annual Election Period (AEP) or an Initial Coverage Election Period (ICEP) for those newly eligible for Medicare.

The funds are deposited once at the beginning of the calendar year. If you are enrolling during an ICEP within the year, the funds are deposited the first month your coverage begins.

The yearly deposit and deductible are pro-rated based on when your enrollment begins; the monthly pro-rated amount for each deposit and deductible is $210. For example, if you live in Region 1 and your enrollment begins April 1, the amount deposited to your MSA bank account is $1,890 ($2,520-(210*3)), and your deductible is $6,070 ($6,700-(210*3)), reflecting 9 months of enrollment versus 12.

If you are a first-time enrollee in an MSA product and enroll during the Annual Election Period, you can cancel your enrollment by December 15. Please note that is after the CMS deadline of December 7 for choosing a Medicare Advantage plan. Between December 8 and December 15, you can only return to Original Medicare.

Like enrolling in the plan, self-disenrolling from the plan is limited. The only times to disenroll are AEP or an authorized SEP such as moving out of the service area. Disenrollments cannot be performed via 1-800-MEDICARE, and must be done through Lasso Healthcare MSA.

In some instances, Lasso Healthcare may cancel your enrollment if you no longer meet the requirements we discussed on page 7.

If you leave Lasso Healthcare MSA before the end of the year, you’ll need to pay part of the most recent yearly deposit back to Lasso Healthcare. That re-payment amount is prorated at $210 per month, and based on the number of months left in the current calendar year. For example, if you leave the plan in May, you will need to repay a pro-rated deposit amount of $1,470 ($210*7). This also applies in the event of death; the pro-rated deposit amount will have to be paid back, by your estate, to Lasso Healthcare.

Page 15 Agent Script and Notes

| Confidential and Proprietary to Lasso Healthcare

Once you receive the initial deposit from Lasso Healthcare, you may move it to an account offered through your own financial institution. In this instance, Optum Bank can no longer track and report your account activity, and you will be responsible for tracking your own expenses.

When considering an alternative financial institution, ask these questions:• Are there any custodial fees? If so, how much are they and how are they collected? Optum Bank does not charge any

custodial fees while you hold the account as a Lasso Healthcare MSA plan member.• Is there a minimum amount that you have to keep in your account? Optum Bank does not have a minimum balance

requirement under the Lasso Healthcare MSA.• How do you withdraw money from your account? Optum Bank provides you with a debit card linked to your account

to use for your expenses.• Will your account earn interest, and, if so, how much? While you hold the account as a Lasso Healthcare MSA plan

member, the account will be interest bearing. For current rates, visit Optum Bank’s website.• Will you get a monthly statement? Under the Lasso Healthcare MSA, Optum Bank will provide monthly statements

listing your account activity.• Will you get required tax forms? Optum Bank will provide you a 1099-SA.• Are you able to invest any monies from the MSA account? Optum Bank gives you the option to invest any MSA bank

account balance over $2,000 into other investment vehicles. Please speak with Optum Bank and your financial and tax advisors for more information.

Page 16 Agent Script and Notes

| Confidential and Proprietary to Lasso Healthcare

Any balance in your MSA bank account can be rolled over into the next year.

If you renew with Lasso Healthcare MSA, the new year’s annual deposit amount will be added into your account.

If you choose not to renew, the funds in the bank account are still yours. They are subject to the same IRS rules as when you were part of the plan. You may keep your account with Optum Bank, subject to additional custodial fees, or move your balance to a financial institution of your choice.

Page 17 Agent Script and Notes

| Confidential and Proprietary to Lasso Healthcare

If you use funds from your MSA bank account, for any reason, you must include IRS Form 8853 when you file taxes. You must file both Forms 8853 and 1040 even if you are not otherwise required to file an income tax return.

You will receive a Form 1099-SA from Optum Bank reporting your account distributions by January 31; that form reports distributions or expenditures from the account. Optum Bank is also required to report this information to the IRS.

For more information, please talk with your tax advisor and review IRS Publications 969 and 502.

Here’s a quick recap of who pays what costs under the Lasso Healthcare MSA:

Lasso Healthcare makes the initial deposit of $2,520 into your MSA bank account. Once you reach your plan deductible, the plan will pay 100% of any additional Medicare A/B-covered services you incur.

While there is zero monthly premium you pay for the Lasso Healthcare MSA, you are responsible for these costs:• Your monthly Medicare Part B premium is automatically deducted from your Social Security account and paid to CMS.

You pay this no matter what Medicare or Medicare Advantage coverage option you ultimately select, and must continue paying your Part B premium to maintain your Medicare eligibility.

• Any health care costs up to the plan deductible amount, whether the costs are for Medicare-covered services, non-Medicare QMEs or non-qualified expenses. You can use the money deposited in your Lasso Healthcare MSA bank account, or your own money, or some combination therein to pay for those costs.

• Once you meet your plan deductible, you are still responsible for paying any health care costs outside of Medicare A/B-covered expenses.

Page 19 Agent Script and Notes

| Confidential and Proprietary to Lasso Healthcare

CMS regulations prohibit you from obtaining or using other insurance that covers the Medicare-covered expenses portion of your deductible. However, you can purchase additional limited benefit policies for various non-Medicare-covered items. For example, Medicare MSA Plans do not cover prescription drugs. If you join Lasso Healthcare MSA Plan, you can also join any separate Medicare Prescription Drug Plan (CMS REQUIRED DISCLAIMER). You can also purchase separate policies to cover vision, dental, long-term care and more.

For these separate limited benefit policies, you can use your MSA funds to pay for items such as the plan coinsurance and deductibles. Those plan payments just won’t count towards your Lasso Healthcare MSA deductible. Please note your MSA funds cannot be used to pay other plan premiums, except premiums for long-term care policies.

Page 21 Agent Script and Notes

| Confidential and Proprietary to Lasso Healthcare

You will get the most value out of the plan if you:1. Have a plan to cover the difference between the deposit and your plan deductible. That’s $4,180 for Region 1,

$5,180 for Region 2 and $6,180 for Region 3.2. Have a plan to manage your health. Work with your care team to establish an individualized care plan. Have regular,

periodic contact with your care team. Focus your efforts on good preventive medicine, and stay as healthy as possible.3. Use the plan-deposited funds on Medicare-covered expenses and other non-Medicare IRS QMEs. Unless you’ve

accounted for the extra tax and penalty implications, aim for using none of the deposit on non-qualified expenses.4. Consider investing any Optum Bank-MSA account balance in excess of the $2,000 threshold in other investment

vehicles to potentially grow your money.
