For new enrollees, deductions shall be made in sixteen (16) equal installments beginning in October. The Board will not be required to honor any authorizations that are delivered to it later than fifteen (15) working days prior to the distribution of the November payroll, except for authorized deductions for first-year teachers, delivered after the distribution of the November payroll whose deductions will be made in equal installments computed in accordance with the number of pay periods remaining in that school year.

The number of authorized companies for which payroll deductions will be made will be determined by the insurance council.

In order to be eligible for inclusion on this authorized list, the companies must meet the following criteria:
a. A company must submit a written explanation of their company background, administrative capabilities, products and services for consideration by the insurance council.

No- load based providers will not be required to maintain a minimum number of participants due to the lack of on-site marketing.

Open Enrollment Period Open Enrollment is a period of time each year when you and your eligible dependents, if family coverage is offered, may enroll for healthcare coverage or make changes to your existing healthcare coverage. The effective date will be on the first day of your employer’s plan year. A Special Enrollment Period is a time outside the yearly Open Enrollment Period when you can sign up for health coverage. You and your eligible dependents may enroll for coverage through a Special Enrollment Period by providing required enrollment information within thirty (30) days of the following events: • you get married, the coverage effective is the first day of the month following your marriage. • you have a child born to the family, the coverage effective date is the date of birth. • you have a child placed for adoption with your family, the coverage effective date is the date of placement. Special note about enrolling your newborn child: You must notify your employer of the birth of a newborn child and pay the required premium within thirty -one (31) days of the date of birth. Otherwise, the newborn will not be covered beyond the thirty -one (31) day period. This plan does not cover services for a newborn child who remains hospitalized after thirty-one (31) days and has not been enrolled in this plan. If you are enrolled in an Individual Plan when your child is born, the coverage for thirty- one (31) days described above means your plan becomes a Family Plan for as long as your child is covered. Applicable Family Plan deductibles and maximum out-of-pocket expenses may apply. In addition, if you lose coverage from another plan, you may enroll or add your eligible dependents for coverage through a Special Enrollment Period by providing required enrollment information within thirty (30) days following the date you lost coverage. Coverage will begin on the first day of the month following the date your coverage under the other plan ended. In order to be eligible, the loss of coverage must be the result of: • legal separation or divorce; • death of the covered policy holder; • termination of employment or reduction in the number of hours of employment; • the covered policy holder becomes entitled to Medicare; • loss of dependent child status under the plan; • employer contributions to such coverage are being terminated; • COBRA benefits are exhausted; or • your employer is undergoing Chapter 11 proceedings. You are also eligible for a Special Enrollment Period if you and/or your eligible dependent lose eligibility for Medicaid or a Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP), or if you and/or your eligible dependent become eligible for premium assistance for Medicaid or a (CHIP). In order to enroll, you must provide required information within sixty (60) days following the change in eligibility. Coverage will begin on the first day of the month following our receipt of your application. In addition, you may be eligible for a Special Enrollment Period if you provide required information within thirty (30) days of one of the following events: • you or your dependent lose minimum essential coverage (unless that loss of coverage is due to non-payment of premium or your voluntary termination of coverage); • you adequately demonstrate to us that another health plan substantially violated a material provision of its contract with you; • you make a permanent move to Rhode Island: or • your enrollment or non-enrollment in a qualified health plan is unintentional, inadvertent, or erroneous and is the result of error, misrepresentation, or inaction by us or an agent of HSRI or the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).

SALARY DETERMINATION FOR EMPLOYEES IN ADULT EDUCATION [Not applicable in School District No. 62 (Sooke)]
Open Enrollment KFHPWA will allow enrollment of Subscribers and Dependents who did not enroll when newly eligible as described above during a limited period of time specified by the Group and KFHPWA.
Disenrollment An Enrollee must be disenrolled from the Plan if the Beneficiary:
a. No longer resides in the State of Mississippi;
b. Is deceased;
c. No longer qualifies for medical assistance under one of the Medicaid eligibility categories in the targeted population. The Contractor must notify the Division within three (3) days of their request that an Enrollee is disenrolled for a reason listed above and provide written documentation of disenrollment. Disenrollment shall be effective on the first day of the calendar month for which the disenrollment appears on the Enrollee Listing Report. The Contractor shall not disenroll an Enrollee because of an adverse change in the Enrollee’s health status, or because of the Enrollee’s utilization of medical services, diminished mental capacity, or uncooperative or disruptive behavior resulting from Enrollee’s special needs (except when Enrollee’s continued enrollment in the CCO seriously impairs the Contractor’s ability to furnish services to either this particular Enrollee or other Enrollees.) The Contractor must file a request to disenroll an Enrollee with the Division in writing stating specifically the reasons for the request if the reasons are for other than those specified above. An Enrollee may request disenrollment without cause during the ninety (90) days following the date the Division sends the Enrollee notice of enrollment or the date of the Enrollee’s initial enrollment, whichever is later, during the annual open enrollment period, upon automatic reenrollment if the temporary loss of Medicaid eligibility has caused the Enrollee to miss the annual disenrollment opportunity, or when the Division imposes an intermediate sanction on the Contractor as specified in this Contract. An Enrollee may request disenrollment from the CCO for cause if the CCO does not, because of moral or religious objections, cover the service the Enrollee seeks, the Enrollee needs related services to be performed at the same time, not all related services are available within the network, the Enrollee’s primary care provider or another provider determines receiving the services separately would subject Enrollee to unnecessary risk, poor quality of care, lack of access to services covered under the Plan, or lack of access to providers experienced in dealing with the Enrollee’s health care needs. Enrollee requests for disenrollment must be directed to the Division either orally or in writing. The effective date of any approved disenrollment will be no later than the first day of the second month following the month in which the Enrollee or the Plan files the request with the Division.
