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 within 31 days. 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 or an approved Life Status Event to enroll new dependents in the plan.

Full Time Associates
Mercy Medical Center provides you with Long Term Disability (LTD) coverage at 60% of your base pay not to exceed a monthly benefit of $10,000. This income replacement benefit begins after you have exhausted your Short Term Disability benefits.

To provide choice and flexibility, there are two additional coverage levels from which you may choose. You have the option to "buy-up" your LTD coverage to 66 2/3% of base pay, or "buy-down" your LTD coverage to 50% of base pay. Your personalized enrollment worksheet will reflect the cost or credit associated with this "buy-up" or "buy-down."

If you currently have a 50% benefit and elect up to a 66 2/3% benefit, you must complete Evidence of Insurability Form. If you have been treated for the same illness or injury within the 3 months just prior to your effective date of coverage, you will be subject to the pre-existing conditions clause. Please refer to certificate for additional information.
