Special Enrollment Period An eligible individual and eligible dependents may be enrolled during special enrollment periods. A special enrollment period may apply when an eligible individual or eligible dependent loses other health coverage or when an eligible individual acquires a new eligible dependent through marriage, birth, adoption or placement for adoption.
Enrollment Period 1. An “annual” enrollment period shall be held at a time mutually agreed upon by the District and the Association. During the enrollment period, any employee previously eligible for benefits who had not enrolled in one of the Board provided health- care options will be permitted to enroll in such a plan, subject to carrier provisions. During the enrollment period, dependents previously eligible for benefits who had not enrolled in one of the Board provided health- care options will be permitted to enroll in such a plan.
TESTING OF THE BCDR PLAN The Service Provider shall test the BCDR Plan on a regular basis (and in any event not less than once in every Contract Year). Subject to paragraph 6.2, the Purchaser may require the Service Provider to conduct additional tests of some or all aspects of the BCDR Plan at any time where the Purchaser considers it necessary, including where there has been any change to the Services or any underlying business processes, or on the occurrence of any event which may increase the likelihood of the need to implement the BCDR Plan. If the Purchaser requires an additional test of the BCDR Plan, it shall give the Service Provider written notice and the Service Provider shall conduct the test in accordance with the Purchaser's requirements and the relevant provisions of the BCDR Plan. The Service Provider's costs of the additional test shall be borne by the Purchaser unless the BCDR Plan fails the additional test in which case the Service Provider's costs of that failed test shall be borne by the Service Provider. The Service Provider shall undertake and manage testing of the BCDR Plan in full consultation with the Purchaser and shall liaise with the Purchaser in respect of the planning, performance, and review, of each test, and shall comply with the reasonable requirements of the Purchaser in this regard. Each test shall be carried out under the supervision of the Purchaser or its nominee. The Service Provider shall ensure that any use by it or any Sub-contractor of “live” data in such testing is first approved with the Purchaser. Copies of live test data used in any such testing shall be (if so required by the Purchaser) destroyed or returned to the Purchaser on completion of the test. The Service Provider shall, within twenty (20) Working Days of the conclusion of each test, provide to the Purchaser a report setting out: the outcome of the test; any failures in the BCDR Plan (including the BCDR Plan's procedures) revealed by the test; and the Service Provider's proposals for remedying any such failures. Following each test, the Service Provider shall take all measures requested by the Purchaser, (including requests for the re-testing of the BCDR Plan) to remedy any failures in the BCDR Plan and such remedial activity and re-testing shall be completed by the Service Provider, at no additional cost to the Purchaser, by the date reasonably required by the Purchaser and set out in such notice. For the avoidance of doubt, the carrying out of a test of the BCDR Plan (including a test of the BCDR Plan’s procedures) shall not relieve the Service Provider of any of its obligations under this Contract. The Service Provider shall also perform a test of the BCDR Plan in the event of any major reconfiguration of the Services or as otherwise reasonably requested by the Purchaser.
Initial Enrollment Upon retirement, each new retiree who is eligible to enroll in plans under the Health Benefits Program shall receive uninterrupted coverage under the plan in which he or she was enrolled as an active employee, provided the employee submits all necessary applications and other required documentation in a timely fashion.
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. Special Enrollment Period 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).
