Forms

Forms (hard copy, original signature) must be completed and submitted (District Mail, US Mail, in-person; NO email or fax) to the GGUSD Insurance Department to process any change to your coverage for employees and/or dependents.

Changes due to a qualifying event such as birth, adoption, marriage/domestic partnership, or a change of eligibility status must be submitted within 31 days of the event or wait for the annual Open Enrollment period each October (effective January 1). 

When a marriage or state-registered domestic partnership is terminated, an ex-spouse or ex-domestic partner is no longer eligible for coverage as of the first month following the termination date. When an employee fails to submit the required forms and supporting court document within 31 days of the termination date, the employee is liable for claims paid beyond eligibility.  

Effective date: first of month following qualifying event date. Plan changes only allowed at Open Enrollment.   

An additional 31 days from the effective date is afforded for you to provide copies of your recorded marriage certificate/California certificate of registered domestic partnership or birth certificates for your children and the SSN for a newborn.  Some documents available through Vital Statistics: http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/w2w.htm

Documentation of the Qualifying Event is required.  For loss of other coverage or newly acquired other coverage, a Letter of Creditable Coverage or HIPAA Certificate from the employer or prior carrier will suffice.

Important: Forms must be completed properly; please contact the Insurance Office for guidance.
