There are a limited set of allowable circumstances for which a Reliant missionary has the right to waive Reliant’s medical coverage.

Allowable waivers

To qualify for a waiver, your parents' medical coverage must be provided through their employer.
If you are turning 26 in the next calendar year, please see Loss of Parents' Insurance Coverage at Age 26.

Verifying and maintaining your waiver eligibility

Complete the waiver form
Guidestone Waiver form rev 6-13-2018.pdf
Email the completed and signed form along with a copy of proof of insurance from the employer-offered insurance to hr@reliant.org.

If your coverage ceases for any reason, that event is what is called a "qualifying event." It gives you the ability to enroll in Reliant’s medical coverage within 30 days of that event.
It is your responsibility to inform Reliant of loss of coverage before you lose it. It is also your responsibility to be covered by Reliant’s medical coverage if you do lose your other allowable coverage.
These policies exist due to reasons that are guided by IRS policies and governmental requirements for employers and employees. There are fines that may be incurred if you or Reliant fail to comply. Reliant is very interested in protecting you from experiencing the financial hardship of any fines.
