Another time you can enroll or change your benefits is if you experience a qualifying event. This is a life change that allows you to change your insurance selections. Types of qualifying events are marriage, birth or adoption, and loss of coverage if a parent or spouse loses or changes employment. The thing to remember regarding qualifying events is that you have a limited time to let us know. If you and or your spouse or child is coming onto Reliant’s insurance, you have 60 days to let us know and get you enrolled. That includes the time to collect and process the necessary paperwork. For termination of coverage, if you are leaving Reliant’s insurance, we need to know within 30 days of the qualifying event, again including time to collect and submit paperwork to the insurance company.
Types of Qualifying Events
- Marriage
- Birth of a newborn
- Adoption, or placement of a child in your home for adoption
- Death
- Loss of coverage - If you were covered on your parent's or spouse's employer's group plan and they had a loss or change of employment that caused you to lose your coverage.
