Our health coverage runs from Jan. 1 - Dec. 31 of each year. Employees, spouses and children who meet the eligibility requirements below are eligible for coverage by our benefits program.
For new hires or newly benefits-eligible employees, you have 30 days from your date of hire or benefit eligibility date to complete your enrollment. Once completed, your coverage begins right away.

Note: If you and a dependent both work for Baylor Scott & White, only one can be covered as a dependent.
*Subject to approval, the age limit is waived if the child is unmarried, physically and mentally incapacitated and unable to earn an independent living; dependent on you for at least 50% of financial support; claimed by you as a dependent for federal taxes; and disabled and covered under the plan before age 26 (unless you are a new hire or newly benefit-eligible).
Important! When you add new dependents on our benefit plans (during initial or annual enrollment, or following a qualified life event), you will receive a request from the Dependent Verification Center. This step is important to ensure your dependents remain covered and only eligible dependents receive benefits.
Documentation such as marriage certificates, birth certificates, legal guardianship paperwork and/or tax forms will be required. It is important to submit all requested documentation in a timely manner to ensure eligible dependents remain covered.
