Enrollment
It is the responsibility of the employee to complete an enrollment application for the University's dental insurance plan no later than days after his or her employment start date. If an employee fails to comply with this requirement, the employee must wait until open enrollment to apply for coverage. Coverage will be effective the first day of the month following employment. If employment begins on the first of the month, coverage will begin that day.
You can enroll by logging into the WEX Benefits Portal.
Please note that dental insurance may only be changed during the open enrollment period. However, an employee whose eligibility status changes during the year may be eligible to make changes to his or her current coverage within 30 days of the status change. For more information please refer to the Enrollment Section in the Plan Document.
Dependent Coverage
Employees have the option to enroll eligible dependents. Please see Eligibility Section of Plan Document for further details.
