Generics Preferred

Under the Generics Preferred program, prescriptions automatically will be filled with a chemically equivalent generic drug, if available and appropriate. Log in to CVS Caremark to view the current Preferred Drug List.

Credit for Baltimore Represented Employees who do not use tobacco Baltimore represented employees who attest that they and their covered family members do not use tobacco will receive a $15 credit per month towards their required contribution for medical plan coverage.

  • You must attest that you and your covered dependents do not use tobacco products to be eligible for the credit*.
  • The credit is only available to employees enrolled in an eligible Northrop Grumman Health Plan medical option.** If you are enrolled in an ineligible medical plan option or elect “No coverage”, you are not eligible.
  • The credit will reduce your medical payroll deductions – it is not a cash payment and will not appear as a separate line item on your paystub.
  • If you do not complete the Tobacco Usage Attestation for yourself and your covered dependents, you will be defaulted to tobacco usage status and will not receive the credit.
  • If you attest to being tobacco free after your initial enrollment period has ended, (outside 31 days of your hire date or date of Logon letter), the non-tobacco credit will be applied as soon as administratively possible on a prospective (future) basis.

* In some cases, engaging in a tobacco-cessation program may make you eligible for the credit.
**The credit does not apply to the TRICARE Supplement and the following medical plan options: Cigna Global, HMSA HMO, HMSA PPO, and Kaiser Hawaii.

Kaiser HSA Plans - New in 2022!

Two new Kaiser medical plans will be available in 2022: the Kaiser Northern California HSA Plan and the Kaiser Southern California HSA Plan. These are in addition to the Kaiser Mid-Atlantic HSA Plan. Because the new plans qualify as high-deductible health plans, or HDHPs, they are HSA-eligible – meaning you can establish and contribute to an HSA as long as you have no other disqualifying coverage. An HSA has significant short- and long-term tax advantages to help with medical expenses now and in the future. To learn more, review the Summary of Benefits Coverage (SBC) or go to NetBenefits for plan details.

HMO Plans

HMO plan options are offered through Kaiser, and their availability varies depending on your location. Review the plan's summary of benefits coverage applicable to your area for details on plan coverage. For more information on Kaiser services and programs, click here.

Prescription Drug Coverage

Prescription drug benefits are offered through Kaiser. For information on the prescription drug coverage included with your plan, review the appropriate Summary of Benefits and Coverage for your HMO plan.

  • Outside the U.S.
