New overage dependent child definition for 2010:

Your dependent child may be eligible to be on your health coverage through the end of the year they turn 26. Please click here for more information.

Planning to add dependents?

In order for new family members to be eligible for coverage under any Trinity Health benefit plan, you are required to provide proof of their dependent status. If you are planning to add family members during annual enrollment, you must submit dependent verification information to Human Resources November 18, 2009. If you do not submit the required paperwork by the deadline, your newly added dependents will not be enrolled in coverage and you will be required to wait until the next annual enrollment period to enroll new dependents in the plan.

PTO Cash-out

Non-exempt (hourly) associates can cash out between 1 and 80 hours, provided you maintain a minimum PTO bank of one hour. You willl receive your payout with the paycheck that coincides with November 1, 2010, which is the pay check dated November 19, 2010. Your PTO cash-out election for 2010 may only be made during open enrollment to avoid taxation on the value of your PTO bank, including the hours that you do not intend to cash out. Your election is irrevocable and cannot be changed. You may only cash out hours that you will accrue during the calendar year in which you plan to receive payment. Consequently, you may not cash out PTO hours carried over from previous years. For example, Jane has a PTO balance of 100 hours as of December 31, 2009. During open enrollment, she elects to cash out 40 hours in 2010. Jane cannot cash out any of the 100 hours she earned in 2009 or earlier. She must plan her 2010 cash-out amount on only the hours she will accrue in 2010.

REMINDER: You may cash-out PTO if you are a non-exempt (hourly) associate. If you want to cash out PTO in 2010, you must make a new PTO cash-out election. Your prior year election will NOT carry forward.

Medical Discount

Our Mission as Trinity Health calls us to treat the entire well-being of those in our care – and that includes our associates. In order to increase access to health care and treatment for all of our associates, Trinity Health has developed a medical plan discount program. This program makes medical benefits more affordable for eligible associates enrolled in a Trinity Health medical benefit plan. The program does this by reducing the eligible associates’s medical plan contribution. For more information, please refer to the brochure below.
