March is Dental Enrollment Month

2/26/2023

 
Picture
March is the month to enroll/reenroll  dependent(s)/ family for dental coverage.  Please remember that you, the member, are covered at no additional charge.  If you are covering a spouse or other eligible dependents, you must enroll them every year.  The cost for dental during the plan year that runs July 1, 2021 to June 30, 2022 will be the same as last year. 

Enrolling a dependent(s) can only be done during the enrollment period of March 1 – 31. Dependents will be covered from July 1 - June 30.   If you don’t re-enroll each year, you are electing to drop coverage for your dependent(s). Your dependent(s) must then wait 3 years to re-enter the dental plan. Dependent children are eligible for coverage from birth to their 26th birthday if they are not eligible for dental coverage under another plan.​

Please note that you use your variable benefit for the same year as the dental coverage is in effect, so you will be utilizing next year’s variable for next year’s dental coverage.  A Variable Benefit Claim Form must be submitted w/ your dental enrollment.  If you are planning on retiring, you are NOT eligible to utilize the Variable Benefit and may need to pay depending on the retirement plan you elect to participate in.
​
  • Additional information about your dental benefits can be found on the MTABF DENTAL PAGE.
  • ​Questions about your benefits should be directed to the trustee from your building.
