Enrollment

 

Clicking on the Employee Benefits icon displays the Benefits – Employee [Enrollment] page, where you can enroll an employee in a plan, view their existing plan's details, or unenroll an employee from a plan.

If the Benefit rule allows employees to make changes in their own plan, even Employees without View permissions will see the View menu and the Benefits function after a successful login to VIP.

View’s Vital Signs function monitors both new and existing employee eligibility for any existing benefit plans with respect to benefit events and dates configured by the Company Administrator. Notification to managers and individual employees is made via e-mail, typically every day (as configured by the Company Administrator).

 

After Division Selection, select the Employee for enrollment/review.

Enroll

In the Enrollment tab, the system displays a list of plans that the Employee is eligible to enroll in.

To enroll an Employee in a plan, select the Employee from the Search bar. (When a Self Service User logs in, only their data is populated in the Search results. The system displays only those plans with an appropriate Open Enrollment Period.)

 

Click next to the desired Plan to display your enrollment options.

The Enrollment Date defaults to the current date, but the user can enter a different date.

 

Select the desired Coverage Type from the drop-down.  Possible coverages include Employee (EE) Only, EE + Child, Family, Standard, etc.  (The types available were specified by administration when the plan was created.)

 

 

The Fee Type determines how you will pay for the coverage you selected.

You may also specify the Start and End dates of the Deduction for employee/employer contributions.  (Deduction End date is not required during enrollment and may be left blank.)

After making your selections, click to enroll in the plan.

 

View

The system displays a list of plans the Employee is already enrolled in.  

Click under View Details to display your enrollment details.

 

Select

Selecting  (under the Select column) a plan allows you to change your enrollment details (Enrollment Date, Coverage Type and Fee Type).

 

Unenroll

You may unenroll employees from a plan in which they are already enrolled.  If the employee's participation was associated with a deduction, the deduction becomes inactive and the rate reduces to zero.  

Click under Unenroll in the desired employee row.  The system automatically prompts for an End date.  Enter the date directly in the field or select it from the pop-up calendar, then click .

The employee is removed from the plan but returns to the eligibility list for the plan.

Click  to undo your plan selection.
