2019 Annual Enrollment Elections
?
As a current team member , the 2019 Annual Open Enrollment period begins on March 25 th , 2019 and runs through 11:59:59pm on April 8 th , 2019. All benefits eligible team members are strongly encouraged to participate in Annual Open Enrollment by visiting the online benefits administration site at www.mybensite.com/amikids or by calling 1-888-639-8077 and making their benefits selections. Team Members that are currently enrolled in any of the AMIkids benefits will automatically rollover into the new plan year as is unless you make changes. All elections, including optional coverages, will continue if you do not login to make a change. As a recently hired team member , you have a New Team Member Enrollment Period to elect your benefits. The enrollment period starts as soon as you are loaded into the BenAdmin system (usually the week after your first paycheck) and ends on your 60 th day following your date of hire. If you do not make your elections during this window, you cannot enroll in the AMIkids benefit plan until the next annual enrollment unless you experience a qualified change in status (see page 2).
Is participation in the 2019 Annual Open Enrollment Mandatory this year? • No, but participation in your health care decisions is STRONGLY encouraged.
• This is a great opportunity to make
sure your information on file is correct, to include your address, phone number and email and make any updates to your beneficiaries.
HOW DO I DETERMINE WHICH PLAN IS BEST FOR ME AND MY FAMILY?
“Nobody knew health care could be so complicated!”
We know and understand deciding which benefits are right for your situation is a personal choice based on each family’s dynamics. Because of the IRS 125 rules, the decisions you make during annual open enrollment or upon your initial eligibility in the plan year are with you until the beginning of the next plan year.
The next 2 pages provide a couple of scenarios that will assist you in determining which plan makes the most sense for you – if you want assistance with creating your own scenario, you may contact BCBS and they’ll walk through the process.
CHOOSE WISELY! The benefit elections you make will remain in effect until April 30, 2020
