Q: How are my benefit premiums calculated?
A: Premiums are calculated monthly but collected through bi-weekly payroll deductions. Your premiums are paid in smaller biweekly deductions each paycheck, rather than making one large monthly payment.
Q: What happens to my benefits if I leave the company?
A: Your benefits end on your last day of employment at midnight, even if deductions are bi-weekly.
Q: Will I overpay since deductions are bi-weekly?
A: No, your bi-weekly deductions are proportionate to the monthly premium, so you are not overpaying.
