As an active employee, you have a change in employer contribution toward your health insurance. This life event does not apply to retirees or survivors.

For Active Employees

In the table(s) below, supplemental benefits refer to supplemental dental insurance (Select, Select Plus, and Preventive), vision insurance, and Accident Plan. You may not be eligible for all supplemental benefits. Visit the Dental Insurance, Vision Insurance, and Accident Plan pages to learn about eligibility.

There is no employer contribution for supplemental plans but a reduction in health insurance costs increases net compensation that can be used to pay for supplemental plans.
