The Conference Board is proud to offer a comprehensive program of benefits designed to serve the diverse needs of our unique workforce, and we are committed to continually enhancing and expanding our offerings. As a TCB employee, you have a wide range of benefit programs available to you.
The information on this page provides an overview of benefits. Your medical, dental and vision plan payroll deductions are through a pre-tax plan. The plan provides tax savings by reducing employee medical premiums from gross salary prior to calculation of federal income and Social Security taxes. Your medical, dental and vision premiums will automatically be taken as pre-tax deductions. The plan year is a calendar year — January 1 through December 31.
You have 30 days from your hire date to enroll in our benefits. Otherwise, your next opportunity to enroll in benefits will be during the annual Open Enrollment period, typically held during the fall of each year with an effective date of January 1st of the following year.
See below for Open Enrollment Guide, Health Plan Required Notices and Medicare Part D notice.
All full-time employees working an average of at least 30 hours per week are eligible to enroll themselves and their eligible dependents on the first of the month following your hire date.
Eligible Dependents May Include:
Medical, Dental and Vision Insurance Coverage for Domestic Partners:
Domestic partners are eligible for these benefits. In addition, these benefits will also be extended to the children of the domestic partner.
You have a variety of benefits that are offered to you. Be sure to consider your choices before you make your benefit decisions. The reason is that once you make your elections, most will remain in effect until the next open enrollment period, unless you have experienced a qualifying life event. Life events must be processed within 30 days of occurrence. Examples of life events include:

Helpful Rx Cost Saving Tools & Tips!
Mail Order:
Many drugs are available in a 90-day supply, rather than the 30-day retail supply. Typically, mail order drugs are subject to two-times the standard 30-day copays noted above, resulting in lower expenses for you.
Good Rx:
There are many tools online that you can use in order to save on prescription costs. One being 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 (insurance will not be applied and costs with the coupon will not count towards your deductibles and/or out-of-pocket maximums).
Ask Your Doctor:
Make sure to ask if there are cost savings alternatives to the prescription they are providing. Many times, there are generic or different manufacturers that will save you money at the pharmacy.
Only the PPO HSA plan provides out-of-network coverage for a variety of services.
If you do seek care out of network, you will experience higher cost sharing in addition to possible balance billing.
