OPENING AND INTRODUCTIONS
Verla Lawson opened the meeting and introduced the Department of Management Services (DMS) team and Lawrence Roberts from NorthgateArinso the university direct IT contact person was on the call as well. It was agreed during the call that this would be the final IT Open Enrollment call for the 2011 plan year.
SUS Workbook Updates
There were minimal changes to this document. Lawrence Roberts is now the main contact and the BNO-002 has been updated. Changes are highlighted in yellow within the workbook. Main changes are for optional life insurance (1-7 is not capped at $500k and A-G are capped at $500k).
There were no changes to the BNI-001 file. All e-mail addresses have been updated from previously known Convergys to the current administrator NorthgateArinso.
Just to recap information distributed in March, Action/Reason Codes rows 89-92 have changed from voluntary separations to involuntary separations.
The new rates for January 2011 are included in the workbook. Please update your files accordingly. There were no rate changes to Optional Life.
Termination code 1101 will be changing to 1102. Lawrence has to confer with Heather and provide us with an update as to how this change will be implemented.
Open Enrollment Snapshot for Benefits
The address file for open enrollment mail outs will be generated on September 10, 2010. Please put forth every effort to inform your employees to update their addresses as quickly as possible. It is very important that you establish all employees before this date so that they will receive the open enrollment mailing. Remember, if you have an employee who transferred from a state agency, they may have three addresses in the PF System. The hierarchy we use for mailing is temporary, mailing then home address. Please make sure those employees either remove the temporary address before September 10th or update their address as soon as possible. It is very important that all employees validate their addresses. Any communication you can provide before the 10th will be greatly appreciated.
Open Enrollment Key Dates
Everyone was provided a schedule of key dates, the 2011 payroll & vendor file schedule, the SUS Workbook and the benefit fair schedule. There were a few dates to be determined. As soon as NorthgateArinso provides the final dates, Verla will distribute the finalized key dates to everyone. Please maintain this information for your records.
