Annual Benefit Enrollment

Annual Enrollment

During your annual enrollment period, you have the opportunity to review, change or continue benefit elections each year. Changes are not permitted during the plan year (outside of annual enrollment) unless a Section 125 qualifying event occurs.

• Changes, additions or drops may be made only during the annual enrollment period without a qualifying event.

• Employees must review their personal information and verify that dependents they wish to provide coverage for are included in the dependent profile. Additionally, you must notify your employer of any discrepancy in personal and/or benefit information.

• Employees must confirm on each benefit screen (medical, dental, vision, etc.) that each dependent to be covered is selected in order to be included in the coverage for that particular benefit.

New Hire Enrollment

All new hire enrollment elections must be completed in the online enrollment system within the first 30 days of benefit eligibility employment. Failure to complete elections during this timeframe will result in the forfeiture of coverage.

Who do I contact with Questions? For supplemental benefit questions, you can contact your Benefit Office or you can call Higginbotham Public Sector at (833) 510-0970 for assistance.

Don’t Forget!

Where can I find forms? For benefit summaries and claim forms, go to your benefit website: www.mybenefitshub. com/annaisd

How can I find a Network Provider? For benefit summaries and claim forms, go to the Sample ISD benefit website: www.mybenefitshub.com/annaisd. Click on the benefit plan you need information on (i.e., Dental) and you can find provider search links under the Quick Links section.

When will I receive ID cards? If the insurance carrier provides ID cards, you can expect to receive those 3-4 weeks after your effective date. For most dental and vision plans, you can login to the carrier website and print a temporary ID card or simply give your provider the insurance company’s phone number and they can call and verify your coverage if you do not have an ID card at that time. If you do not receive your ID card, you can call the carrier’s customer service number to request another card. If the insurance carrier provides ID cards, but there are no changes to the plan, you typically will not receive a new ID card each year.

What is Guaranteed Coverage? The amount of coverage you can elect without answering any medical questions or taking a health exam. Guaranteed coverage is only available during initial eligibility period. Actively-at-work and/or preexisting condition exclusion provisions do apply, as applicable by carrier.

What is a Pre-Existing Conditions? Applies to any illness, injury or condition for which the participant has been under the care of a health care provider, taken prescriptions drugs or is under a health care provider’s orders to take drugs, or received medical care or services (including diagnostic and/ or consultation services).

• Login and complete your benefit enrollment from 7/7 - 8/8/2025

• Enrollment assistance is available by calling Higginbotham Public Sector at (833) 510-0970.

• Update your information: home address, phone numbers, email, and beneficiaries.

• REQUIRED!! Due to the Affordable Care Act (ACA) reporting requirements, you must add your dependent’s CORRECT social security numbers in the online enrollment system. If you have questions, please contact your Benefits Administrator.

Annual Benefit Enrollment

Section 125 Cafeteria Plan Guidelines

A Cafeteria plan enables you to save money by using pretax dollars to pay for eligible group insurance premiums sponsored and offered by your employer. Enrollment is automatic unless you decline this benefit. Elections made during annual enrollment will become effective on the plan effective date and will remain in effect during the entire plan year.

CHANGES IN STATUS (CIS):

Marital Status

Change in Number of Tax Dependents

Change in Status of Employment Affecting Coverage Eligibility

Gain/Loss of Dependents’ Eligibility Status

Judgment/ Decree/Order

Eligibility for Government Programs

Changes in benefit elections can occur only if you experience a qualifying event. You must present proof of a qualifying event to your Benefit Office within 30 days of your qualifying event and meet with your Benefits Office to complete and sign the necessary paperwork in order to make a benefit election change. Benefit changes must be consistent with the qualifying event.

QUALIFYING EVENTS

A change in marital status includes marriage, death of a spouse, divorce or annulment (legal separation is not recognized in all states).

A change in number of dependents includes the following: birth, adoption and placement for adoption. You can add existing dependents not previously enrolled whenever a dependent gains eligibility as a result of a valid change in status event.

Change in employment status of the employee, or a spouse or dependent of the employee, that affects the individual’s eligibility under an employer’s plan includes commencement or termination of employment.

An event that causes an employee’s dependent to satisfy or cease to satisfy coverage requirements under an employer’s plan may include change in age, student, marital, employment or tax dependent status.

If a judgment, decree, or order from a divorce, annulment or change in legal custody requires that you provide accident or health coverage for your dependent child (including a foster child who is your dependent), you may change your election to provide coverage for the dependent child. If the order requires that another individual (including your spouse and former spouse) covers the dependent child and provides coverage under that individual’s plan, you may change your election to revoke coverage only for that dependent child and only if the other individual actually provides the coverage.

Gain or loss of Medicare/Medicaid coverage may trigger a permitted election change.

Annual Benefit Enrollment

Employee Eligibility Requirements

Supplemental Benefits: Eligible employees must work 20 or more regularly scheduled hours each work week.

Eligible employees must be actively at work on the plan effective date for new benefits to be effective, meaning you are physically capable of performing the functions of your job on the first day of work concurrent with the plan effective date. For example, if your 2026 benefits become effective on September 1, 2025, you must be actively-at-work on September 1, 2025 to be eligible for your new benefits.

Dependent Eligibility Requirements

Dependent Eligibility: You can cover eligible dependent children under a benefit that offers dependent coverage, provided you participate in the same benefit, through the maximum age listed below. Dependents cannot be double covered by married spouses within the district as both employees and dependents.

Please note, limits and exclusions may apply when obtaining coverage as a married couple or when obtaining coverage for dependents.

Potential Spouse Coverage Limitations: When enrolling in coverage, please keep in mind that some benefits may not allow you to cover your spouse as a dependent if your spouse is enrolled for coverage as an employee under the same employer. Review the applicable plan documents, contact Higginbotham Public Sector, or contact the insurance carrier for additional information on spouse eligibility.

FSA/HSA Limitations: Please note, in general, per IRS regulations, married couples may not enroll in both a Flexible Spending Account (FSA) and a Health Savings Account (HSA). If your spouse is covered under an FSA that reimburses for medical expenses then you and your spouse are not HSA eligible, even if you would not use your spouse’s FSA to reimburse your expenses. However, there are some exceptions to the general limitation regarding specific types of FSAs. To obtain more information on whether you can enroll in a specific type of FSA or HSA as a married couple, please reach out to the FSA and/or HSA provider prior to enrolling or reach out to your tax advisor for further guidance.

Potential Dependent Coverage Limitations: When enrolling for dependent coverage, please keep in mind that some benefits may not allow you to cover your eligible dependents if they are enrolled for coverage as an employee under the same employer. Review the applicable plan documents, contact Higginbotham Public Sector, or contact the insurance carrier for additional information on dependent eligibility.

Disclaimer: You acknowledge that you have read the limitations and exclusions that may apply to obtaining spouse and dependent coverage, including limitations and exclusions that may apply to enrollment in Flexible Spending Accounts and Health Savings Accounts as a married couple. You, the enrollee, shall hold harmless, defend, and indemnify Higginbotham Public Sector from any and all claims, actions, suits, charges, and judgments whatsoever that arise out of the enrollee’s enrollment in spouse and/or dependent coverage, including enrollment in Flexible Spending Accounts and Health Savings Accounts.

If your dependent is disabled, coverage may be able to continue past the maximum age under certain plans. If you have a disabled dependent who is reaching an ineligible age, you must provide a physician’s statement confirming your dependent’s disability. Contact your Benefit Office to request a continuation of coverage.

A Health Savings Account (HSA) is more than a way to help you and your family cover health care costs – it is also a tax-exempt tool to supplement your retirement savings and cover health expenses during retirement. An HSA can provide the funds to help pay current health care expenses as well as future health care costs.

A type of personal savings account, an HSA is always yours even if you change health plans or jobs. The money in your HSA (including interest and investment earnings) grows tax-free and spends tax-free if used to pay for qualified medical expenses. There is no “use it or lose it” rule — you do not lose your money if you do not spend it in the calendar year — and there are no vesting requirements or forfeiture provisions. The account automatically rolls over year after year.

HSA Eligibility

You are eligible to open and contribute to an HSA if you are:

• Enrolled in an HSA-eligible HDHP (High Deductible Health Plan) Not covered by another plan that is not a qualified HDHP, such as your spouse’s health plan

• Not enrolled in a Health Care Flexible Spending Account, nor should your spouse be contributing towards a Health Care Flexible Spending Account

• Not eligible to be claimed as a dependent on someone else’s tax return

• Not enrolled in Medicare or TRICARE

• Not receiving Veterans Administration benefits

You can use the money in your HSA to pay for qualified medical expenses now or in the future. You can also use HSA funds to pay health care expenses for your dependents, even if they are not covered under your HDHP.

Maximum Contributions

Your HSA contributions may not exceed the annual maximum amount established by the Internal Revenue Service. The annual contribution maximum for 2025 is based on the coverage option you elect:

• Individual – $4,300

• Family (filing jointly) – $8,550

You decide whether to use the money in your account to pay for qualified expenses or let it grow for future use. If you are 55 or older, you may make a yearly catch-up contribution of up to $1,000 to your HSA. If you turn 55 at any time during the plan year, you are eligible to make the catch-up contribution for the entire plan year.

Opening an HSA

If you meet the eligibility requirements, you may open an HSA administered by EECU. You will receive a debit card to manage your HSA account reimbursements. Keep in mind, available funds are limited to the balance in your HSA.

Important HSA Information

• Always ask your health care provider to file claims with your medical provider so network discounts can be applied. You can pay the provider with your HSA debit card based on the balance due after discount.

• You, not your employer, are responsible for maintaining ALL records and receipts for HSA reimbursements in the event of an IRS audit.

• You may open an HSA at the financial institution of your choice, but only accounts opened through EECU are eligible for automatic payroll deduction and company contributions.

How To Use Your HSA

• Online/Mobile: Sign-in for 24/7 account access to check your balance, pay bills and more.

• Call/Text: (817) 882-0800 EECU’s dedicated member service representatives are available to assist you with any questions. Their hours of operation are Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. CT, Saturday 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. CT and closed on Sunday.
