ELIGIBILITY

As a benefits-eligible team member, Process Technology offers a health and welfare program that offers you and your family coverage that helps reduce your medical expense, improve your health and well-being, and protect you while you are an active team member working 30 hours or more.

If you (and/or) your dependents have Medicare or will become eligible for Medicare in the next 12 months, a Federal law gives you more choices about your prescription drug coverage.

DEPENDENT ELIGIBILITY

Your dependents may also be covered under the benefit plans described below.

Benefit Legal Spouse  Dependent Child(ren) 
Medical × Coverage terminates on the last day of the month in which the dependent reaches age 26.
Dental ×
Vision ×

DEPENDENT VERIFICATION

You may be asked to provide Talent Management proof of dependent eligibility, which may include one or more of the following:

  • Marriage Certificate
  • Birth Certificate
  • Affidavit of Qualifying Adult
  • Adoption Certificate
  • Placement Certificate
  • Document of Guardianship
  • Other as necessary

NEW HIRE COVERAGE

It is important you review the benefit information and enroll in benefits during your initial new hire eligibility period. If you do not enroll by that deadline, you will not be eligible for coverage until the following annual open enrollment period or if you experience a qualifying event. Following enrollment, your coverage is effective the first of the month following 30 days of service.

SPOUSAL COVERAGE

If your spouse is eligible for group health insurance through his or her employer, then he or she will not be eligible to obtain coverage under Process Technology’s group health plan. You must complete the spousal carve out affidavit form to indicate your spouse’s eligibility for participation in Process Technology’s health plan. Please contact Talent Management to request the spousal carve out affidavit.

TERMINATION OF COVERAGE

If employment is terminated, all coverage will end at midnight on the last day of the employment.

COBRA CONTINUATION OF COVERAGE

When you or any of your dependents no longer meet the eligibility requirements under this plan, you may be eligible for continued coverage as required by the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (COBRA) of 1986.

WELCOME BABY!

Don’t forget to notify Talent Management within 30 days of birth of a newborn to add dependent(s) to the plan.

MAKING CHANGES DURING THE YEAR

Unless you experience a life-changing qualifying event, you cannot make changes to your benefits until the next open enrollment period. You must notify Talent Management of such change(s) within the noted days from the event as shown in the below table. Failure to notify Talent Management within the timeframe noted (and provide any necessary dependent documentation) will require you to wait until the next open enrollment period to make your change. Qualifying events may require documentation of the event such as marriage certificate, birth certificate, divorce decree, etc. to finalize the event change. For questions, please see your Talent Management representative.
