welcome to annual enrollment!
May 6, 2015 – May 20, 2015
Dear {NAME}
It’s that time of year again, when the Company evaluates our benefit
programs to ensure we are offering you the most effective, affordable
and quality coverage. Last year, we asked you and your family to get
involved and make health care consumerism a priority… and you
listened! By utilizing the various tools we introduced, such as Castlight
Health and Wiser Health, you took charge of your health care spending
and helped us better manage our costs.

We are pleased to announce that, as a result of our team members and their families taking an active role in their health
care, there will be very few changes to our plan design for the 2015-2016 plan year. Also, due to our positive cost
experience over the past year, and to comply with the affordability component of Health Care Reform, team members will
experience minimal, if any, plan premium increases depending upon the option selected.
Although there are few changes for the 2015-2016 plan year, I encourage you to take the time during the upcoming
Annual Enrollment period to be sure that your current choices are still the right ones for you and your family. You should
consider both the cost you pay each paycheck for coverage, as well as what your potential expenses are during the year.
Together, we can control our costs by taking charge of our benefits and continuing to be wise health care consumers.
SVP, Human Resources

flexible spending accounts –
another way to save
tools & resources
The Company offers a number of tools and resources to
help you take charge of your benefits and health during
Annual Enrollment and throughout the year.
Flexible Spending Accounts (the “FSAs”) let you use
before-tax dollars to pay for eligible expenses. You can
choose to contribute to either or both FSAs each year.
Aetna Health Plan Cost Estimator Tool
(https://www.aetna.com/toysrus) – during Annual
Enrollment, enter some personal stats to get an estimate
of your out-of-pocket costs for each medical plan
Limited-Purpose FSA
Only dental and vision expenses can be reimbursed
through the Limited-Purpose FSA. You can elect to
contribute up to $2,500 per plan year in the LimitedPurpose FSA during Annual Enrollment.
Castlight Health (mycastlight.com/toysrus) – Castlight’s
personalized health care shopping tool puts you in charge
of your spending by providing you with the opportunity to:
Dependent Care FSA
If you pay for child or elder care so that you and your
spouse can work, you may be eligible to pay all or some of
your expenses through the Dependent Care FSA. You can
contribute up to $5,000 per plan year in the Dependent
Care FSA (highly-compensated team members may
be limited by the IRS). The maximum amount you can
contribute will appear during your Annual Enrollment event.

Reduce your medical costs by comparing prices for
doctors, facilities, and medical services

Find the best care by reviewing comprehensive
patient reviews and doctor information
n
Understand what’s covered by your health plan via
simple, easy-to-understand explanations
n
Review past Aetna medical expenses all in one
place, sorted by type and date of care
Plan carefully when deciding how much to save in
each account; IRS rules require that you must use
all of the money in each account for the 2015-2016
plan year by September 30, 2016 or it’s forfeited.
You must enroll each year to participate in the FSAs –
your election from last year will not carry forward.

Health care reform – how it may affect you
Health care reform has created many changes
and requirements for both you and the
Company over the past several years. You can
get full details on health reform changes at
RUsBenefits.com, but here are some highlights:
n
The eligibility requirements for benefits have
changed. This may impact you, especially if
you are an hourly team member and your
average hours worked over the past 12
months makes you eligible for benefits.
n
Wiser Health (toysrus.mywiserhealth.com) – Choose
treatments that work. This easy-to-use online tool helps
you make informed treatment choices for more than 175
health conditions. Recommendations are personalized to
you, based on clinical evidence, personal preference and
treatment popularity.
All Americans are required to have health
care insurance. The options in our plan are
considered affordable and provide minimum
value as defined by health care reform. This
means you will generally not be eligible for a
government subsidy if you decide to waive
Company coverage and enroll in a plan on the
health insurance marketplace. If you do receive
a subsidy while eligible for our plans, you may
be required to pay it back to the government.
