Keep Your Benefit Coverage Current

Report Change in Family Status Within 30 Days  

Important events in your family life can affect your health plan coverage.  Take steps to update your coverage immediately when one of these events occurs:

• Marriage
• Birth of a child
• Adoption of a child
• Change in spouse’s job status that affects coverage
• Change in child’s dependent status
• Divorce
• Death

These events qualify you to add or change coverage for you and your family, but you only have 30 days from the date of the event to make these changes.

Report any family status change to the Benefits Department in Human Resources within 30 days of the event and make sure you complete the correct enrollment/change forms.  Changes after the 30 day  window can not be allowed until the next Open Enrollment period.  Open Enrollment is held annually from mid-October to mid-November with a January 1 effective date.
