Noncovered services Noncovered services refers to any medical service that is not covered by the plan. Some services may be medically necessary, yet still are not covered. See the “What the plan does not cover” section. When the HTCC determines that a service is not covered, then the service is not covered by the plan. Nonduplication of benefits Nonduplication of benefits is how UMP coordinates benefits when UMP is your secondary coverage. When another plan is primary (pays first), that plan pays their normal benefit. UMP then pays up to the amount we would have paid if UMP had been the primary plan. If the primary plan pays as much or more than the normal UMP benefit, UMP pays nothing. UMP does not pay the rest of the allowed amount. See examples on page 122.

Non-network pharmacies do not include excluded pharmacies (see the definition of “Excluded pharmacy”).
