QUALIFYING
EVENTS
Have you had any recent changes in your dependent’s
status? A “Qualifying Event” is a change in dependent
status that could include a death, birth, divorce,
marriage, adoption etc. Under the IRS federal guidelines
you must notify the Company within 30 days of any
dependent changes. Failure to notify the Company could
result in new dependents not having medical,
