SANS strives to provide its employees with a comprehensive and competitive benefit package. Please take the time to review this guide in its entirety to fully understand the array of benefits available to you and your eligible dependents. We are dedicated to the personal, professional, and financial health of our employees and will continue to provide meaningful benefits at affordable rates.

The 2022 benefit guide contains important information to help you make informed decisions during the benefits open enrollment period and throughout the plan year. We encourage all employees to carefully review the material contained in this guide.

This guide, describing the benefit plans, is only a summary of the provisions of the plan. While every effort has been made to ensure that this booklet accurately reflects the provisions of the plans, only the official plan documents govern the operation of the plans and payment of benefits. Please reach out to the SANS Human Resources team if you have any questions.

We hope you have a happy and healthy 2022 plan year!

ELIGIBILITY & ENROLLMENT Open Enrollment occurs once each calendar year. At that time you may change your benefit elections.

Once you have made your selection, you may not change benefit elections until the next Open Enrollment period, unless you or any eligible dependent have a Qualifying Life Event in employment or family status.

The SANS 2022 benefits plan year starts January 1st and runs through December 31st. Full-time and part-time employees who work at least 20 hours per week are eligible for medical, dental, vision, short term disability, voluntary long term disability, voluntary accident insurance and voluntary life insurance benefits. New hires are eligible on the first of the month following their date of hire.

Qualifying Life Events* include:

You may also elect coverage for your dependents including: • Your legal spouse • Your dependent children who are: o up to 26 years old o 26 years or older, who are incapable of selfsustaining employment by reason of mental or physical handicap and supported primarily by you (proof of ages and dependence must be submitted)

When to Enroll If you are a new hire or are newly eligible for benefits, you must enroll in your benefit plans within 30 days of your hire or eligibility date. If you waive coverage upon first eligibility you will be required to wait until the next Open Enrollment period or when you experience a Qualifying Life Event.

How to Enroll or Waive Through ADP The enrollment process must be completed through the ADP online portal. Employees will be guided through each benefit option to either enroll or waive. You will be required to submit your enrollment once you have completed or waived your elections.

• Marriage, divorce, or legal separation • Adding a dependent child through birth, adoption, or court-ordered custody • Death of a spouse or child • Change in your work schedule affecting benefits, i.e. full-time to part-time or part-time to full-time • Your dependent loses eligibility for coverage • Your spouse loses health coverage through his/her employer • You and/or your spouse and dependents become eligible for COBRA • You and/or your spouse and dependents gain or lose Medicaid or CHIP coverage • You receive a Qualified Medical Child Support Order (QMCSO) If you experience a Qualifying Life Event, you have 30 days to notify Human Resources. If you experience a Medicaid or CHIP Qualifying Life Event, you have 60 days to notify Human Resources and make any desired benefit changes.

Otherwise, elections you make during the Benefits Open Enrollment period will remain in effect for the entire plan year and you will have to wait until the next annual Benefits Open Enrollment period.

VOLUNTARY ACCIDENT INSURANCE NEW IN 2022 Accidents can happen anytime, anywhere—at home or at work, on the playground, or on the road. Some of the most common injuries include:  Broken bones  Back or knee injuries  Burns  Accidental injuries  Lacerations  Concussions  Emergency Room, Urgent Care, or doctor’s office MetLife’s Voluntary Accident Insurance helps you fill some of the gaps caused by increasing deductibles, co-payments, and out-of-pocket costs related to an accidental injury. With this coverage you may not need to use your savings or secure a loan to help pay those unexpected out-of-pocket expenses associated with a covered accident.

For any funds received after an accident, you can use the money however you would like. Whether this be for your deductible and copays, or for food delivery services while you recuperate…the money is yours!
