Welcome to your Virtual Benefits Hub
Ancillary Benefits Are Effective January 1, 2026
Medical Benefits Are Effective July 1, 2025
Open Enrollment 12/8 - 12/12
The current Open Enrollment is for Ancillary Benefits only. This includes Dental, Vision, Voluntary Life, Disability (Short Term and Long Term), Accident insurance, Critical Illness insurance and Hospital Indemnity Insurance.
Annual enrollment is your opportunity to learn about the 2026 Ancillary Benefits, review your current coverage, and choose the best options for you and your family. Please review this virtual benefit guide and attend our upcoming education session to learn more about our 2026 benefits offerings.
This annual enrollment will be a passive open enrollment, which means if you don't make or change your Ancillary elections for the upcoming 2026 Ancillary Benefits, you will automatically be enrolled in the same or similar plan to what you currently have.
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 the next open enrollment period unless you notify HR within 30 days of your QLE to be eligible to make new elections.
Eligibility & Qualifying Events
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".

Basic Life and Voluntary Life
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.
Basic - 100% Employer Paid - 1X Salary up to $200,000
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.
Voluntary - 100% Employee Paid
Coverage is also available for your spouse and/or child dependents, but only after you've elected coverage for yourself. 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. Review the full benefit summary below for additional details.
Employee: Choose in $10,000 increments up to the lesser of 5x your annual salary or $500,000 max ($100,000 GI)
Spouse: Choose in $5,000 increments from $10,000 up to $100,000 max (not to exceed 100% of EE amount) ($25,000 GI)
Children: Age Birth to 14 days – N/A; Age 15 days to 6 months - $1,000; Age 6 months and older - $10,000; One premium covers all of your eligible children
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 the birth of a child.
*Guaranteed Issue (GI) and Evidence of Insurability (EOI)
When you are first eligible (at hire) for Voluntary Life and AD&D, you may purchase up to the Guaranteed Issue (GI) for yourself and your spouse without providing proof of good health (EOI).
Any amount elected over the GI will require EOI. If you elect optional life coverage and are required to complete an EOI, it is your responsibility to complete the EOI and send it to the provider (address will be listed on your form). In addition, your spouse will need to provide EOI to be eligible for coverage amounts over GI, or if coverage is requested at a later date.
The portability provision allows you to continue Voluntary Term Life Insurance upon loss of eligibility or termination of employment in these situations:
- Group policy discontinues the eligibility of a class of employees to which you belong
- You retire
- You are terminated or change jobs
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:
- Employment ends
- You stop being a member of an eligible class of employees
- Dependent loss of eligibility
- The policy terminates
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.
Disability - Short Term & Long Term
Short Term Disability - Employer pays the first $100 of this benefit
Everyday illnesses or injuries can interfere with your ability to work. Even a few weeks away from work can make it difficult to manage household costs.

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

Accident Insurance
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!
- When you are paid a benefit from Accident Insurance, your health insurance company pays your doctor or hospital, but your Guardian Accident insurance pays you.
- You can use the money however you want.
Examples of what's covered
- Accidental Death coverage for Employee, Spouse, and Child
- Ambulance
- Concussions
- Hospital Admission
