Important Notices and Disclosures Married Employee Exclusion
The NextGen Healthcare benefit plans have an exclusion that prohibits two employees who are married to each other from carrying dual medical coverage. This means you cannot be covered dependents on each other’s NextGen Healthcare plans. In addition, our voluntary life insurance plan contains an exclusion that prohibits two employees who are married to each other, from carrying life insurance on the same dependent child. NextGen Healthcare reserves the right to change, amend, modify, or terminate the coverage in whole or in part for any participant at any time if dual coverage is enrolled. Additional penalties may apply. Domestic Partner Coverage Domestic partner coverage is available for state registered domestic partners. Due to IRS regulations, the fair market value of employer-provided health coverage is considered to be taxable income to the employee if the domestic partner (and the domestic partner’s children, if applicable) do not satisfy the IRS definition of “qualifying child” or “qualifying relative.” If the domestic partner (and the domestic partner’s children, if applicable) are not a “qualifying child” or “qualifying relative,” employee contributions made for their health coverage will be made on an after-tax basis. In addition, the value of the company-paid portion of their benefits will be taxable and shown as income on your paycheck and your W-2 statement at the end of the year. In some states, such as California, the amounts may not be subject to state income tax if the domestic partnership meets state criteria. For more information, visit the California Registry for Domestic Partners . It is your responsibility to communicate in writing any state filing to TBX Benefits, NextGen Healthcare’s benefits administrator.
