Enrolling in Benefits

New Hires

New employees can enroll on the first day of the month following date of hire, but you must enroll within 30 days of becoming eligible.

Eligible Dependents

When you enroll yourself in medical, dental, and/or vision coverage, you may also cover your eligible dependents, including:

• Your legal spouse or qualified domestic partner
• Children under the age of 26, regardless of student, dependency or marital status
• Children who are past the age of 26 and are fully dependent on you for support due to a mental or physical disability and who are indicated as such on your federal tax return

Before you enroll

• Know the date of birth, social security number, and address for each dependent you will cover
• Review your enrollment materials to understand your benefit options and costs for the coming year

Making Changes After Open Enrollment

After Open Enrollment ends, you cannot change your benefits and will have to wait until the next Open Enrollment—unless you experience a Qualified Life Event (such as marriage, birth, or loss of coverage).
