When filing claims with ETF’s ICI administrator, The Hartford, employees should advise The Hartford that their employer is the State of Wisconsin—not their actual employer (such as City of ABC or State Agency XYZ).
ETF is conducting online Wisconsin Retirement System employer training sessions, beneficial for employers new to WRS administration, as well as more experienced employers who have been working with the WRS for several years and would like a refresher on WRS topics.
This timeline is intended to help all employers stay apprised of when and what information will be available before the 2022 health benefits open enrollment period, September 27 - October 22, 2021.
Please note a few reminders for employers: check that you are using the most current form revision, watch for ETF Update meeting invites, and read about changes coming to the ICI Program in 2024.
