In situations where a bargaining unit member’s spouse is a full-time employee of the County, said employees shall decide which employee receives “primary” coverage and which employee receives “dependent” coverage.

Members who are eligible for health insurance coverage may not have dual health insurance coverage under both the District’s health insurance plan (“District’s Coverage”) and the health insurance plan provided by the employer of a spouse or other family member (“other coverage”); however, dual coverage is allowed for dental and vision insurance coverages.

Members who have dual health insurance coverage will have sixty (60) days to elect to continue the other coverage and drop the District’s coverage, or to continue the District’s coverage. If the District’s coverage is elected, the Member must provide written authorization to permit the District to confirm with the other health insurance carrier that the other coverage has been dropped. Should a Member fail to make an election within the sixty (60) day time period, the District will have the right to discontinue the District’s coverage.
3. Members who maintain dual health insurance coverage contrary to the terms of this provision will be required to reimburse the District for the cost of the District’s coverage for all months in which the dual health insurance coverage was in effect.
