What if the employee is not eligible for health insurance until a 90-day probationary period is up?
A3: The employer is required to enroll the dependents in health insurance as soon as the employee is eligible for coverage. If there is a probationary period for new employees, the employer must forward Part B of the Notice to their plan administrator so the plan administrator can check box 4 and provide the date of eligibility. Once the probationary period is over, the employer must ensure that the dependents are enrolled in the insurance and that the plan administrator submits an updated Part B of the Notice to DOR.
