Benefits Open Enrollment

FOR ALL STAFF THAT WORK 20 OR MORE HOURS PER WEEK

Please save the date for the 2020 Open Enrollment period scheduled from Monday, November 11 - Friday, November 22.

There a few benefit changes for 2020. Here is an overview of the changes occurring effective January 1, 2020:

• Dental: Members will still be allowed to visit either a PPO or Premier Provider through Delta Dental. If you visit a PPO provider, you will not experience any changes to your current coverage. If you visit a Premier Provider, beginning in 2020 there will be a change to the deductible and annual maximum benefit. 
• Individual Annual Maximum Benefit: $2,000 with PPO / $1,500 with Premier
• Individual Deductible: $0 with PPO / $25 with Premier
• Family Deductible: $0 with PPO / $75 with Premier
• District pharmacy provider will be changing from Express Scripts to OptumRx
• Due to low enrollment, Voya Whole Life will no longer be offered to employees. This was a voluntary benefit paid for entirely by the employee and had no employer contribution. Any employee currently enrolled will still keep his/her coverage and deductions will continue to be taken via payroll. Please note: If you are not currently enrolled in this benefit, this open enrollment window will be your last opportunity to elect the benefit. The district is continuing to provide term life insurance to employees as it has in the past. 
• The increase in 2020 monthly premiums was communicated in the August HR update document. Click here to view the 2020 premiums. 

The changes outlined above are the only changes to benefits for 2020.
