Enrolling in Benefits

Medical coverage for new employees begins immediately upon hire and election. All other benefits begin the first of the month following or coinciding with your date of hire and election. You have 31 days to elect benefits or make changes after a Qualifying Life Event.

Making Changes After Open Enrollment

After Open Enrollment, you cannot make changes to your benefits during the year unless you have a Qualified Life Event and you will have to wait until the next Open Enrollment period to make changes, unless you experience another Qualified Life Event.

Common Qualified Life Events Include

  • Marriage
  • Welcoming a new child
  • Loss of coverage
  • Leave of absence
  • Loss or change in employment
