What qualifies as a change in status or Qualifying Life Event (QLE)?

Examples of changes in status: 

• Married, divorced, or legally separated. 
• Birth, adoption, or death of child or spouse.

• Qualified Medical Child Support Order (QMCSO) 

• Change in your dependent’s eligibility status 
• Loss of coverage from another health plan 
• Change in your residence or workplace (if your benefit options change) 

***(Birth of a baby is ONLY considered a QLE if an employee waived coverage and then had a baby.  But if employee is already enrolled, it's not a QLE, we just add the baby to their existing plan as of DOB.***
