Enrolling as a New Employee

We encourage you to review this website to help you understand your options and make the best choices for you and your family. If you want to participate in the Medical (including Prescription Drug), Dental, Vision, Critical Illness and Flexible Spending Account Programs for the remainder of this year, you must enroll within 30 days of becoming eligible (typically your date of hire).

When you`re ready to enroll, go to the ZONE. The benefits you elect are effective through December 31 of this year. At the end of the online enrollment process, you must select the “Confirm Elections” button for your elections to be saved. After you confirm your elections, you can print your Confirmation Statement to keep for your records.

Making Changes During the Year

You may only make changes to your pre-tax benefits (medical, dental, vision, and FSA) during the year if you experience a qualifying change in status (examples of such changes are listed below.) You will have 31 days from the date of the qualifying change to go to the ZONE and report your qualifying change.

The effective date of your change will be the first of the month following the date you report the event. There are a couple of exceptions to the effective date of the change you are reporting: 1) If you report the event on the first day of the month, then the coverage change will take effect that day; 2) If you are reporting a birth or adoption, the effective date of change will be the date of birth or date of adoption placement.

Follow the instructions on the ZONE under “Report a Status Change” to make your coverage change elections.

    • Marriage
    • Divorce
    • Newly eligible domestic partner
    • Birth or adoption
    • Death of dependent

You can change your HSA contributions at any time during the year through the same process of “Report a Status Change” on the ZONE. You can also make changes to your 401(k) contributions at any time during the year through the Vanguard website.
