Your Medical, Dental and Vision contributions are deducted before taxes are withheld. Paying for benefits before‐tax means that your
share of the costs is deducted before taxes are determined, resulting in more take‐home pay for you. In exchange for this favorable tax
treatment, the IRS requires that your elections remain in effect for the entire year. You cannot drop or change coverage unless you
experience a qualified status change.
