When something significant — a “qualifying event” — happens in your life, it’s important to update your benefit coverages within 31 days of the date of the event. If you don’t, you’ll have to wait until the next Open Enrollment period to make dependent changes.

Here are a few events you need to report to ensure your coverage is accurate.

• Marriage.
• Divorce.
• New baby/child.
• Loss of other coverage.
• Gain of other coverage.

Even if you don’t yet have documentation, you must report these events within 31 days. To report them, access your PlanSource account online from PDRMA’s website. Go to the Health menu, Participant Resources and click My Benefits Portal. Once you have the required documentation, you can return to the portal to submit it.

For more details and/or questions, see your Health Benefits Coordinator.
