Employee Eligibility for Health Benefits

All full- and part-time employees working 20 or more hours per week are eligible for health benefits.  Per Diem and Casual employees are not eligible.

Your eligible dependents may also participate.

Eligible dependents include your lawful spouse as defined by applicable state law, natural children, stepchildren, adopted children, children placed in your home for adoption and children for whom you are the legal guardian. A dependent child must be under the age of 19, unmarried and rely on you for primary support and maintenance.

Dependent children and children of domestic partners who are full-time students may be covered until his or her 26th birthday. Unmarried children of any age who are incapable of self support due to a physical or mental handicap and who are fully dependent on you for support are also eligible.

No other person qualifies as a dependent, including a parent that resides with you.
