If you do not provide the required documentation, coverage will be terminated.

You can terminate your dependent’s coverage throughout the year, but you will not be able to re-enroll the dependent until the next Open Enrollment. You can add a dependent throughout the year if experiencing a qualifying change in status event.

If you are no longer employed by the School Board, you will be provided the opportunity to continue your benefits in accordance with the Federal COBRA Law. You will be provided the ability to continue your medical, dental and/or vision plan if active and paid up to date at the time of termination.
