You will be invited to attend an HR Orientation during your first 2 months of employment.
During your New Enrollee Meeting you will receive information about:
- Overview of Manatee YourChoice Website including how to search for Providers
- Summary of benefit plans and eligibility
- Enrollment materials and step by step process of how to get enrolled
New enrollees on the YourChoice Health Plan are automatically placed in either the BEST or ULTIMATE plan level based on their nicotine status (Ultimate is non-nicotine-exposed; BEST if nicotine-exposed). In January following their benefits effective date, new enrollees will receive a Qualifying Event packet with instructions for completing QEs, which will determine their plan level the following year.
Benefits Enrollment
After attending your orientation meeting, you will have two weeks to complete your online enrollment.
