An employee may be able to enroll for coverage, change plan options, or change the dependents he or she covers during a plan year if the employee or the dependent has a special enrollment event under applicable law.  Changes in employee and/or dependent coverage must be requested within 30 days after the special enrollment event.  If the employee does not request the appropriate changes during the applicable special enrollment period, the changes cannot be made until the next plan enrollment period or, if applicable, until another special enrollment event occurs.

For most special enrollment events, the effective date of coverage will be the first of the month after the event date.

What is a special enrollment event?  This is an event, as defined by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), which provides a special enrollment period for employees and dependents when there is a loss of other group coverage, such as divorce, death, employment status change (or from loss of other coverage such as employment status change of a spouse or spouse’s Open Enrollment).

In order to enroll or cancel health insurance due to a Special Enrollment Event, please email Angela Doyle.  Your request must be in writing.  You must also provide proof of a loss or gain of other coverage such as a letter from employer on company letterhead (emails acceptable) or documentation from either your previous or new medical insurance company listing coverage dates.  The request and proof will need to be received in writing in the month prior to the effective date.  For example, if your insurance is to become effective December 1st, your request to cancel must be placed in November.

NBISD offers medical coverage for all our employees including substitute employees.  New subs must enroll within their first 30 days of employment, which is the actual first day of work.  Coverage will begin the first day of the month following the date of hire.  If a substitute employee experiences a life event during the plan year, a Special Enrollment will take place (see “Special Enrollment Events” section).

Health Matters Health Screening for Employees

New Braunfels ISD employees had the opportunity to take part in a blood health screening conducted by Health Matters. over the past years.  Health Matters is no longer offering this service. Questions regarding results please contact Health Matters at viri@wellnessandhealthmatters.com or wellnessandhealthmatters.com or call 972-613- 5793 and toll free 1-888- 399-4317, fax at 972-613-7236.

Keep Flu out of School!

The single best way to prevent seasonal flu is to get vaccinated each year, but good health habits like covering your cough and washing your hands often can help stop the spread of germs and prevent respiratory illnesses like the flu. There also are flu antiviral drugs that can be used to treat and prevent flu.

1. Avoid close contact.

Avoid close contact with people who are sick. When you are sick, keep your distance from others to protect them from getting sick too.

2. Stay home when you are sick.

If possible, stay home from work, school, and errands when you are sick. This will help prevent spreading your illness to others.

3. Cover your mouth and nose.

Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when coughing or sneezing. It may prevent those around you from getting sick.

4. Clean your hands.

Washing your hands often will help protect you from germs. If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand rub.

5. Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth.

Germs are often spread when a person touches something that is contaminated with germs and then touches his or her eyes, nose, or mouth.

6. Practice other good health habits.

Clean and disinfect frequently touched surfaces at home, work or school, especially when someone is ill. Get plenty of sleep, be physically active, manage your stress, drink plenty of fluids, and eat nutritious food.

For more information, visit the CDC.gov website.

An employee may be able to enroll for coverage, change plan options, or change the dependents he or she covers during a plan year if the employee or the dependent has a special enrollment event under applicable law.  Changes in employee and/or dependent coverage must be requested within 30 days after the special enrollment event.  If the employee does not request the appropriate changes during the applicable special enrollment period, the changes cannot be made until the next plan enrollment period or, if applicable, until another special enrollment event occurs.

For most special enrollment events, the effective date of coverage will be the first of the month after the event date.

What is a special enrollment event?  This is an event, as defined by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), which provides a special enrollment period for employees and dependents when there is a loss of other group coverage, such as divorce, death, employment status change (or from loss of other coverage such as employment status change of a spouse or spouse’s Open Enrollment).

In order to enroll or cancel health insurance due to a Special Enrollment Event, please email Angela Doyle.  Your request must be in writing.  You must also provide proof of a loss or gain of other coverage such as a letter from employer on company letterhead (emails acceptable) or documentation from either your previous or new medical insurance company listing coverage dates.  The request and proof will need to be received in writing in the month prior to the effective date.  For example, if your insurance is to become effective December 1st, your request to cancel must be placed in November.

NBISD offers medical coverage for all our employees including substitute employees.  New subs must enroll within their first 30 days of employment, which is the actual first day of work.  Coverage will begin the first day of the month following the date of hire.  If a substitute employee experiences a life event during the plan year, a Special Enrollment will take place (see “Special Enrollment Events” section).

Keep Flu out of School!

The single best way to prevent seasonal flu is to get vaccinated each year, but good health habits like covering your cough and washing your hands often can help stop the spread of germs and prevent respiratory illnesses like the flu. There also are flu antiviral drugs that can be used to treat and prevent flu.

1. Avoid close contact.

Avoid close contact with people who are sick. When you are sick, keep your distance from others to protect them from getting sick too.

2. Stay home when you are sick.

If possible, stay home from work, school, and errands when you are sick. This will help prevent spreading your illness to others.

3. Cover your mouth and nose.

Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when coughing or sneezing. It may prevent those around you from getting sick.

4. Clean your hands.

Washing your hands often will help protect you from germs. If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand rub.

5. Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth.

Germs are often spread when a person touches something that is contaminated with germs and then touches his or her eyes, nose, or mouth.

6. Practice other good health habits.

Clean and disinfect frequently touched surfaces at home, work or school, especially when someone is ill. Get plenty of sleep, be physically active, manage your stress, drink plenty of fluids, and eat nutritious food.

For more information, visit the CDC.gov website.
