Medical Benefits Questions

Medical Benefits Questions

Can I change my health plan coverage?
 
The District has an "open enrollment" period once each year in the fall (general between the months of September and October.  At this time employees can elect to change health plans.  This is the only time when a "voluntary" change can occur.  Changes in plan coverage can occur outside of the open enrollment period only when there is a "qualifying event" (birth of a child; death; separation from employment of a spouse, resulting in loss of coverage; and other unexpected events.)  The only change that can be made as a result of occurrence of a "qualifying event" is the addition or deletion of a qualified family member.  Change in plan coverage can only occur during the fall open enrollment period.     

What are the benefits provided under my health plan?  Is there a list of approved doctors for each of the plans?
