What is a Scheduled HRA?
A Scheduled Health Reimbursement Arrangement (SHRA) benefit plan is an employer-funded benefit that is designed to look like a traditional benefit plan with underlying deductibles, co-insurance and co-payments.
Employers can specify which expenses are eligible for reimbursement through the HRA and whether or not those expenses are subject to deductibles, co-insurance and/or copayment provisions. Most plans require a claim to be allowed by the high deductible health insurance plan in order to qualify for the employer’s HRA. Many plans utilize co-pays, co-insurance, and deductibles to aid in controlling costs and utilization. Most of our medical plans require a claim to be allowed by the high deductible health insurance plan to qualify for the employer’s HRA.

What is a Scheduled HRA?
A Scheduled Health Reimbursement Arrangement (HRA) is a plan that can integrate with an employer provided group medical insurance plan (your primary insurance carrier), or a dental or vision benefit plan. A Scheduled HRA is set up and funded by your employer to reimburse you or your provider for qualified healthcare expenses.
Who and What is Covered?
A Scheduled HRA typically covers eligible out-of-pocket healthcare expenses incurred by you and/or your covered dependents. However, since Scheduled HRA plans are customizable by your employer, the design for each plan is endless.
Eligible expenses are determined by your employer, but often follow eligible expenses covered by your group health plan.
In order to determine who and what services are eligible for coverage/payment, please refer to your plan’s Schedule of Benefits.
How Does it Work?
- Enroll in a group health plan. During your open enrollment select a group health plan with your employer. If the group health plan you have selected has an HRA plan, you will automatically be enrolled in the HRA.
- Learn about your specific plan. Since each HRA plan is different, you will need to make sure you know your plan details. You will receive a Summary of Benefits. This will be your guide to all of your plan specifics.
- Funds are available immediately. The HRA funds are available to you on the first day of the plan year. However, you must meet the specific plan design.
- See provider for services. Give your provider both your group coverage plan card and your ASi/Navia benefit ID card. Once you’ve received healthcare services from a provider, they will bill your medical insurance. You will receive an Explanation of Benefits (EOB) from your medical insurance provider showing how your benefits were applied. Your provider may then bill ASi/Navia as your secondary insurance. You should also submit that EOB to ASi/Navia.
- Submit claims online! Claims can be submitted online on the ASi Gateway participant portal or through the ASi Gateway mobile app. You will need a copy of your Explanation of Benefits (EOB) when sending your claim to ASi/Navia.

Dental Networks
With our dental plans, we offer several different networks to choose from to give your employees a bigger discount when seeing a contracted dental provider. Below are the networks you can choose from:
Vision Benefit Card
With our vision plans, we do not offer a network. You will receive an ASi/Navia Benefit ID Card and can go to any provider to receive vision services. Some vision providers choose to require payment up front for services, which means you will have to pay out-of-pocket upfront and then submit an itemized statement to ASi/Navia for reimbursement.
