Change in Cost. If the cost of a benefit package option under the Plan significantly increases during the plan year, Participants may (i) make a corresponding increase in their salary reduction amount, (ii) revoke their elections and make a prospective election under another benefit option offering similar coverage, or (iii) revoke election completely if no similar coverage is available, including in spouse or dependent’s plan. If the cost significantly decreases, employees may elect coverage even if they had not previously participated and may drop their previous election for a similar coverage option in order to elect the benefit package option that has decreased in cost during the year.

Change in Cost. For purposes of this Section, “similar coverage” means coverage for the same category of benefits for the same individuals (e.g., family to family or single to single). For example, two plans that provide major medical coverage are considered similar coverage. For purposes of this definition, (1) a health FSA is not similar coverage with respect to an accident or health plan that is not a health FSA; (2) an HMO and a PPO are considered to be similar coverage; and (3) coverage by another employer, such as a Spouse’s or Dependent’s employer, may be treated as similar coverage if it otherwise meets the requirements of similar coverage.
Change in Cost. If the Plan Administrator notifies you that the cost of your coverage under the Plan significantly increases during the Plan Year, you may choose either to make an increase in your contributions or revoke your election and receive coverage under another Plan option which provides similar coverage. For insignificant increases or decreases in the cost of benefits, however, the Plan Administrator will automatically adjust your election contributions to reflect the minor change in cost. (This “Change in Cost” exception is not applicable to any Qualified Benefits selected under Section 6.b. of the Adoption Agreement.) Example: Xxxx is covered under the PPO option for medical coverage. If the cost of this option significantly increases during a period of coverage, Xxxx xxx make a corresponding increase in his payments or may instead revoke his election and elect coverage under another option for medical coverage under the Plan, such as the HMO option.

If the increased cost of a benefit package option under the Plan is insignificant, the participant’s salary reduction amount shall be automatically adjusted.
