Program Overview

Changing Your Benefits (Life Events)

Once you have made your benefit selections, no changes will be permitted unless you experience a life event, including but not limited to one of the following:

• You experience a change in employment status
• You experience a change in marital status
• Your dependent changes his/her status
• Your spouse experiences a change in employment status resulting in loss of coverage, or your spouse’s benefits are terminated.

If you experience one of these life events, you will have 30 days to make changes to your benefits. If you fail to contact the Employee Benefits Office within 30 days of the event, you will have to wait until the next open enrollment period.
