When You are a New Hire
If you are electing health insurance coverage, you must enroll within 30 days of your date of hire (in an eligible position), or first eligible appointment.
You can choose for your coverage to be effective on either:

- The date you are eligible for an employer contribution
Check with your payroll office to find out when your employer contribution begins. If you choose to start your coverage before you receive employer contributions, you will pay the full premium.
