Supplemental LTD enrollment opportunity moved to fall 2020
The one-time enrollment opportunity for supplemental long-term disability (LTD) insurance has been moved from May 2020 to the fall 2020 annual open enrollment due to the current COVID-19 situation and its effect on school employees.
During the 2020 LTD enrollment opportunity only, school employees who had prior continuous LTD coverage that ended on December 31, 2019 will receive credit towards SEBB’s 12-month pre-existing condition exclusion period. This incentive is only for the 2020 annual open enrollment. Employees who did not have prior LTD coverage will have their 12-month pre-existing condition exclusion period begin on the effective date of their supplemental LTD coverage.
Supplemental LTD coverage elected during the 2020 annual open enrollment will be effective January 1, 2021.
Employees can enroll online using SEBB My Account. Evidence of insurability (proof of good health) is not required during the 2020 plan year when enrolling for the first time in SEBB LTD coverage.
We will provide more information before fall to better prepare you for any questions your employees might have before this supplemental LTD enrollment opportunity.
