Eligibility

  • Full Time Team Members working 30 hours or more per week and their dependents are eligible for benefits on the first day of the month following 30 days of employment.
  • Part-Time Team Members working 29 or fewer hours per week and their dependents are eligible for limited benefits on the first day of the month following 30 days of employment.

Eligible Dependents

Eligible dependents include:

  • Your legal spouse or domestic partner
  • Your children, up to age 26
  • Your children of any age with a mental of physical disability sustained before reaching 26

Making Changes

The choices you make when you first become eligible are in effect for the remainder of the plan year. Once you are enrolled, you must wait until the next open enrollment period to change your benefits or add/remove coverage for dependents, unless you have a qualified life event, as defined by the IRS.

Examples include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Marital status change
  • Birth or adoption of a child
  • Dependent child turns 26 and ages off the plan
  • Loss or gain of other health coverage
  • Change in employment status
  • Change in Medicaid/Medicare eligibility
  • Receipt of a Qualified Medical Child Support Order

Note: You must report your Benefits Change Request to Human Resources within 30 days from the life event date in order to make changes to your coverage. The changes you make must be consistent with the event. For example, you cannot use the birth of a child to enroll yourself in a dental plan. To learn more about the documentation that you must submit with your change request, review your Benefit Guide from the Digital Document Resources section on this page.

Transitioning Benefits

We understand that transitions are a part of every journey. We want to make this process as clear and seamless as possible for you. Your benefits conclude at midnight on the final day of employment if you leave the company. Our Team Member Care is here to help support and answer any question about what comes next.

Understanding Benefit Premiums & Employment Termination

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.
