Insurance Introduction

 

Eligibility

  • Regular employees scheduled to work a minimum of 30 hours (75 percent appointment) per week are eligible to enroll in the health insurance plans. Enrollment is not automatic. The employee must complete the State of Tennessee Insurance enrollment form within 30 days of the date of employment. If the employee completes all applicable forms, coverage will be effective on the first day of the calendar month following the completion of one month's active employment (provided the employee is actively at work).


  •  After initial enrollment you may add additional dependents to health insurance only within 60 days of a special qualifying event. Supporting  documentation will be required.

 

  • It is your responsibility to keep your name, address and beneficiary information current and to terminate coverage on dependents who become ineligible for coverage.
All Insurance forms must be submitted to the insurance office at the following address:
