How do I pay the premium for the new Aetna Dental PPO Plan and is it pre-tax?
First you must enroll in the Aetna Dental plan PPO through the www.benefeds.com website. Once you enroll in the new dental plan, premiums are withheld from your paycheck. Premiums are paid on a pre-tax basis (premium conversion) if you are an active employee and your salary is sufficient to make the premium withholding. Pre-tax premiums are not available to annuitants, survivor annuitants or compensationers.
