- on the first day of the next month if your start date is on a day other than the first calendar day or first working day of the month.
You can change your benefits
- if you have a family status change such as loss or gain of coverage, birth, adoption, divorce or marriage. If one of the above situations occurs, you have 31 days to make the change.
- during open enrollment in October.
Your benefits end
- due to resignation/retirement, transfer, death or non-payment of premiums.
If you resign/retire, your benefits will end on the first day of the month following your last day worked.
