Virtual Benefits Hub
Plan Year: July 1, 2025 - June 30, 2026
This Virtual Benefits Hub was designed to be an interactive, centralized resource for you and your dependents to visit both during
open enrollment and throughout the year.
This page will serve as your go-to resource for benefits-related questions. You’ll be able to access enrollment information,
important benefit documents and different tools to help you understand your benefit offerings.
Highlights of your benefit plans include:
To help you gain that strong understanding, please read these virtual benefits guide carefully and consult HR with any questions.
Thank you for all that you do for us!
All team members have access to our online benefits enrollment platform 24/7 where you can enroll, select, or change your benefits online during the annual open enrollment period, new hire orientation, and for qualifying events.
Helpful Tips To Consider Before You Enroll
Do you plan to enroll an eligible dependent(s)?
Have you recently been married/divorced or had a baby?
Did any of your covered children reach their age limit for this year?
REMINDER: if you wish to participate in a Flexible Spending Account and/or Health Savings Account in 2025, you MUST make an active election each year. Prior elections do not carry over.
The Benefit choices you make during your initial enrollment or annual open enrollment remain in effect for the entire year.
QUALIFYING EVENTS
You can, however, modify your elections under certain circumstances, called "Qualifying Events".
Ready to Enroll?
Complete your enrollment form and hand it in to Human Resources.
When Does My Coverage Start?
What is a Qualifying Event?
Who are my legal dependents?
children placed for adoption, children for whom you serve as legal guardian
Annual enrollment is your opportunity to learn about your benefits, review your current coverage and choose the best options for you and your family. Please review this virtual benefit guide to learn more about our benefits offerings.
This annual enrollment will be a "passive open enrollment", which means if you do not make your benefit elections by Friday, April 18th you will remain in the same plan as your current benefits for this plan year.
Open Enrollment is the one time of year when you can update your elections without experiencing a Qualifying Life Event (QLE). The elections that you make will remain in place until June 30, 2026 unless you notify HR within 30 days of your QLE to be eligible to make new elections.
Avon Local Schools offers medical coverage through Medical Mutual.
A PPO option offers the freedom to see any provider when you need care. When you use providers from within the PPO network, you receive benefits at the discounted network cost. Most expenses, such as office visits, emergency room, and prescription drugs are covered by a copay. Other expenses are subject to a deductible and coinsurance.
Utilizing In-Network providers will allow for the highest level of coverage. In-Network providers agree to accept the carriers contract rate as the final charge and the member is not balanced billed.
TRADITIONAL DRUGS
TIER 1 (GENERIC) | Lowest copay: Most drugs in this category are generic drugs. Members pay the lowest copay for generics, making these drugs the most cost-effective option for treatment.
TIER 2 | Low copay: This category includes non-preferred and low-cost generic drugs
TIER 3 | Higher copay: This category includes preferred, brand-name drugs that don't yet have a generic equivalent. These drugs are more expensive than generics, and have a higher copay.
TIER 4 | Highest copay: In this category are nonpreferred brand name drugs for which there is either a generic alternative or a more cost-effective preferred brand including most specialty medications. These drugs have the highest copay. Make sure to check for mail-order discounts that may be available.
Helpful Rx Cost Savings Tools & Tips:
MAIL ORDER - Many drugs are available in a 90-day supply, rather than the 30-day retail supply. Typically, you will pay less if you choose to get a mail-order 90-day supply.
GOOD Rx - There are many tools online that you can use to save on prescription costs. One is GoodRx.com, an online Rx database that allows you to find what pharmacy is the cheapest for your specific prescription. Additionally, you may be able to find a coupon that will greatly reduce your cost. It is important to remember that many of the coupons can only be used outside of your plan (which will not count towards your maximums).
ASK YOUR DOCTOR – Make sure to ask if there are cost-saving alternatives to the prescription they are providing. Many times, there are generic or different manufacturers that will save you money at the pharmacy.

You have the opportunity to contribute to a variety of savings and/or spending accounts on a pre-tax basis which lowers your taxable income. View the information below for important details and guidelines for the various accounts offered.
The Health Care and Dependent Care Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) allow you to set aside pre-tax dollars to pay for eligible expenses. By contributing to one or both of the Flexible Spending Accounts you reduce your taxable income, so you pay less in taxes — which saves you money.
Contributions
The election you make during enrollment is your election for the entire plan year. You may change it only if you have a qualifying life event and the change request must be consistent with the event.
You may contribute as follows:
Health Care FSA
The Dependent Care FSA
Allows you to pay for eligible dependent care expenses with tax-free dollars so that you and your spouse can work or attend school Full-time.
Funds in a Dependent Care FSA are only available once they have been deposited into your account and you cannot use the funds ahead of time.
How the Plan Works
You must incur your eligible expenses during the plan year — January 1 to December 31. An expense is considered to be incurred when the service is performed, not when you are billed or paid for the service. You do, however, have until March 31st annually to file your claims. Any funds after March 31 unclaimed will be forfeited.

Life insurance is an important part of your financial security. Life insurance helps protect your family from financial risk and sudden loss of income in the event of your death. Accidental Death & Dismemberment (AD&D) insurance is equal to your Life benefit in the event of your death being a result of an accident and may also pay benefits for certain injuries sustained.

A sudden accident or death can leave you or your loved ones in a vulnerable position. Employees have the opportunity to enroll in Term Life and Accidental Death & Dismemberment insurance which will supplement lost income in the event of an accident or death. If you choose to enroll in employee coverage, this will be in addition to your employer-provided Basic Life coverage.
The portability provision allows you to continue Voluntary Term Life Insurance upon loss of eligibility or termination of employment in these situations:
This Policy will port into a Term policy.
You have 30 days from the loss of eligibility date to port your Voluntary Term Life.
Conversion allows you to convert your Voluntary Term Life Insurance to an individual life insurance policy in these situations:
This policy will convert to a Permanent Whole Life policy.
You have 30 days from the loss of eligibility date to convert your Voluntary Term Life.
Who's Your Beneficiary?
Naming a beneficiary is a crucial part of electing life insurance. Also, don't forget to update your primary or secondary beneficiary if you experience a life event, such as a divorce or birth of a child.
Primary Beneficiary: Your primary beneficiary receives your benefits in the event of your death.
Contingent Beneficiary: Your contingent beneficiary receives your benefit, in the event that your primary beneficiary cannot.
*Please make sure your beneficiary information is up to date with your HR office*
Short Term Disability

Your coverage pays 60% of your income up to a specific maximum in your benefit summary.

A serious injury can cost you a lot of money – not only in medical bills but in things like income from lost work hours. Some injuries are minor, but others are debilitating and require significant medical care. If you get hurt, accident insurance pays you money that you can use to cover personal expenses, bills, and out-of-pocket medical costs. Accident Insurance can pay a set benefit amount based on the type of injury you have and the type of treatment you need. It covers accidents that occur on and off the job. And it includes a range of incidents, from common injuries to more serious events.
Who Gets Paid? You get paid!
Examples of what's covered
Hospital indemnity insurance can cover some of the costs associated with a hospital stay, letting you focus on recovery. Being hospitalized for illness or injury can happen to anyone, at any time. While medical insurance may cover hospital bills, it may not cover all the costs associated with a hospital stay.
What Does it Cover?
Who Gets Paid? You get paid!
