Independence Administrators (IA) are the Fund's major medical insurance provider for doctors, hospitals, and specialists. When Participants visit providers who are in-network with Independence Administrators, the Fund pays the coinsurance percentage (Gold Level 90%, Silver Level 70%) of the total IA allowance, leaving the Participant responsible for the their coinsurance portion (Gold Level 10%, Silver Level 30%).  Participants are responsible for the coinsurance until they have met their out-of-pocket maximum (OOP). Once an individual or family has reached their OOP Max, the Plan will pay 100% for all further In-Network claims for the duration of the Plan Year (April 1 through March 31).
