Processing the Income Continuation Insurance Missing 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 (ICI). When they have 12 months of WRS state service, they need to be enrolled in the Regular ICI plan. There are times when Benefit Administrators may forget to cancel the Early coverage and enroll the employee into the Regular coverage - in these cases employees are missing their Regular coverage and may be charged inappropriate premiums. This WED report identifies employees who need their Early coverage waived and enrolled into Regular ICI coverage when the employee has reach 12 months of WRS state service.

Process Considerations:

  • The WED is available for credentialed users ONLY and will be based on current security roles.  Queries will be viewable only if a credentialed user has the security access to fix them. 
  • Benefits Retro should be triggered by any reprocessed Events in On Demand Event Maintenance.  Benefit Administrators must monitor and adjust retro if appropriate the day following when the changes are made to enrollment records.
  • A premium adjustment may be needed if the employee was overcharged premiums.  If Benefits Retro is not triggered appropriately to return overcharged premiums, a Payline Adjustment will be needed.  If you are unable to enter Payline Adjustments, please open a ticket to the UWSS Service Operations to have the Payline entered on your behalf.

Within the ADM Event, change the current election for Early ICI coverage to "WAV" for waive.  Verify that the Regular Income Continuation Insurance coverage level matches what the employee had under the Early ICI Coverage and re-enter the Enrollment Code of "Add Coverage," the Enrollment Reason of "New Hire" and the "App Received By" date equal to the date you noted from the screen.  (For more information on how to use On Demand Event Maintenance to enroll employees for benefits, reference:  Enrolling, Changing, or Canceling Coverage Using On Demand Event Maintenance in HRS .  For information on how to reprocess existing Events, reference Reprocessing Events Using On Demand Event Maintenance in HRS .)
