New participants (Active or Retirees) who want to enroll for the first time
Employees who need to update dependent information
If you are not making any changes to your benefits, you do not need to complete an enrollment form.
Form Instructions
Remember to complete all requested information for your benefits.
Sections 1, 2, and 3:
Simply follow all the instructions and complete the information requested.
For each benefit you are adding, changing or canceling, you must check the appropriate box next to the corresponding benefit.
For the benefit selections you are not altering, check the “Keep Coverage” box. If you complete an enrollment form, but do not indicate your desire to cancel or change an existing benefit, that benefit will continue regardless of other benefits which may or may not be indicated on the enrollment form.
Vision Plan:
Select the Vision Plan.
Check the type of coverage you are choosing and enter the cost per-pay-period amount.
Section 4:
Add dependents names and check the coverage selected as vision.
Enrolling for the first time?
Enroll online or complete an enrollment form and make your benefit selections by checking the “Add Coverage” box.
Changing your benefits?
Make changes online or complete an enrollment form and change your selections by checking the “Change Coverage” box. Complete the line with the new coverage information.
Adding a new benefit?
Enroll online or complete an enrollment form and make your selections by checking the “Add Coverage” box. Complete the line with the new coverage information.
Keeping all of your current benefits?
All benefits will continue as currently enrolled.
Canceling current benefits?
Make changes online or complete an enrollment form and check the “Cancel Coverage” box for the benefit you want to cancel; otherwise, it will automatically continue for the 2019 plan year.
Transferring to a new agency?
If you transfer from one agency to another, your benefits must remain the same.
Complete an enrollment form, check the “Transfer” box and turn the form in to your new benefits coordinator.
When an employee transfers, it is the employee’s responsibility to provide their current benefits to the new agency. In the event that the new employee is unsure of his or her current benefits, the employee needs to contact the old agency to confirm coverage.
If an employee transfers from agency that did not participate to an agency that does participate, they will be treated as a “new hire.”
