BENEFIT ENROLLMENT
When Can You Enroll?
New Hire/Newly Eligible for Benefits: Benefits start on the first of the month following 30 days from the full-time hire date. Open Enrollment: Annual event to enroll or change benefit elections. You must meet the Open Enrollment deadline for your benefits to be effective on July 1. You will not be able to change elections after the Open Enrollment deadline until next year’s Open Enrollment unless you have a Qualifying Life Event. Qualifying Life Event: If you experience a Qualifying Life Event (QLE), it triggers a Special Enrollment Period (SEP), where you may be able to add, change, or drop your benefits outside of Open Enrollment. You have 30 days from the event to notify Human Resources and submit your QLE in Paycom with supporting documentation. Qualifying events include events like: Marriage, annulment, legal separation, or divorce Birth, adoption, or placement for adoption of an eligible child Death of spouse or child
Change in dependent’s eligibility status (e.g., turns 26) Change in residence if change affects benefit options Medical child support order Entitlement to Medicare or Medicaid during the year Reduction in hours Enrollment in Marketplace/Exchange Loss of coverage under a state insurance program
Your benefit changes will be effective as of the QLE date. For example, if you experience a birth, your benefits will be effective on the date of birth.
