Processing the Income Continuation Insurance Co-Elect Enrollment WED Report in HRS

Overview

Faculty, Academic staff, and Limited employees who are covered by the WRS can elect to enroll in Early Income Continuation Insurance. When they have 12 months of WRS state service, they need to be enrolled in the Regular Income Continuation Insurance plan. There are times when Benefit Administrators may forget to cancel the Early coverage when enrolling for the Regular coverage - in these cases employees are enrolled for both plans and may be charged inappropriate premiums. This WED report identifies Faculty, Academic Staff, and Limited employees who have an active enrollment in both the Early and the Regular Income Continuation Insurance and need to have their Early coverage waived.

Instructions

1. Log into HRS.  The Workflow Exception Dashboard queries will appear to the right of the main menu.  Error queries appear based on your current security and whether there is an error to fix.
2. Click on the hyperlink for the UW_BN_ICI_COELECT query.




3. Click the 'Check to Claim' check box next to the employee you wish to work with and your name will appear in the Claimed by Section with the Date and Time noted.  Then click the DISABILITY_BENEFIT hyperlink for the employee you wish to work on.



4. You will be redirected to the employee's Disability Base Benefit page.  The 3Y Early ICI plan will be displayed first.  Click on the View All hyperlink to see all disability Plan Types.  Note the Coverage Begin Date for the Regular coverage, the App Received By date, and the Benefit Plan the employee is enrolled in.  To avoid inadvertently wiping out any existing enrollments, it is highly recommended that you note all Benefit Plans, coverage levels, Coverage Begin Dates, and App Received By dates for each Benefit Plan the employee has been enrolled in from the date of this Event forward to the present, not just the disability benefits, in the event you need to reinstate any benefits.




5. Add an ADM Event to the BAS Activity Table if an Event does not exist for the Coverage Begin Date of the Regular ICI plan.  (Reference:  Adding Events to the BAS Activity Table in HRS )


6. Open a new window by clicking on the New Window hyperlink in the upper right corner of your screen

11. Enter the Enrollment Code of Add Coverage, Reason of "New Hire" and the "App Received By" date equal to the date you noted from the employee's existing Disability Enrollment screen.

16. Navigate back to the employee's Base Benefit Pages:  Benefits > Enroll in Benefits > Disability Benefits > enter the employee's Empl_ID and Search.  Verify that the Early coverage now shows as waived and the Regular coverage elected as of the Effective Date of the ADM Event.




17. Navigate back to the main HRS screen by clicking the "Home" hyperlink at the top right corner of the screen.




18. Click the "Completed" checkbox to indicate that you have fixed the error.  Your name will appear in the Completed By section with the date and time noted.
