How to make changes

until the next annual enrollment period. Qualified changes in status include: marriage, divorce,
legal separation, birth or adoption of a child, change in child’s dependent status, death of spouse,
child or other qualified dependent, change in residence due to an employment transfer for you,
your spouse, commencement or termination of adoption proceedings, or change in spouse’s
benefits or employment status.
How do I enroll?
You will enroll via paper enrollment forms and submit them to your manager or Human Resources
department. If you are making any changes to your current coverage, you may need to fill out the
required insurance company form(s) to make those changes for the upcoming year.
