Step 1: Review plan options and make election decisions
Plan Type
• Plan details are organized by Plan Type to make it easier for employees to understand their options, however employees make their elections one plan at a time.
• The Election Intro Text, if provided in IBPT, will display above the list of plans within the plan type.
• If a URL was provided in IBPT, it will be displayed here.
Plan Details
• Each plan must be elected separately.
• Plans of the same type that are mutually exclusive may be grouped in a Plan Election Set. Only one coverage option may be elected from a Plan Election Set.
• If BC codes were configured in IBPN to allow data to be entered (Enter Election) these will display above the plan details.
• The coverage costs may depend on this data.
Coverage Options
• All coverages that the employee can elect are shown in a list containing Plan Description, Policy #, Coverage Description, Pre-tax indication, Employee Cost (Your Cost) and Employer costs.
• The last column is reserved for the employee’s election choice. One and only one coverage line must have this toggled on.
• The employee’s current enrollment information always appears above the list of election options for the plan.
• If the employee is not yet enrolled in a plan, the Current Coverage will remain blank.
Costs
• The costs are shown in the basis chosen by the employee, by Year / Month / Period.
• Cost sharing rules may vary by plan and/or coverage. Clients may secure either of these columns if they do not wish to show this information.
• To determine the EE and ER costs, the system will first calculate the annual amount using the Rate Basis defined for the coverage and will then calculate the monthly amount. To determine the period costs, the system will pick up the Frequency from the Coverage and then will look through the Frequency detail for the first Pay Category that has the Pay Category Type of ‘Open Enrollment’. Once it has found a record with this type the system will use the number found in the Times Per Year field in its calculations.
• If the system cannot locate a Frequency detail record with a Pay Category of the type ”Open Enrollment” the system will use a default Times Per Year amount of 1.
• Coverage rates may be stepped by certain criteria. In most cases this criteria can be automatically derived; however, it sometimes must be specified by the employee as part of the additional data.
• All costs are calculated “as of” the coverage effective date, not the current date.
• Costs that are estimates are flagged with a check mark in the Est. Costs column. This is derived from the Estimated Costs toggle in IBPN.
• In order for the EE and ER Costs to display the toggle ‘Allow Value Override’ must be toggled ON for BC0840 and BC1040 in IBPN. If B0020 and B0070 are defined with the ‘Hire Date’ rule, the UBOE program will use the coverage component rules from the IBPN 'coverage' effective record where the Hire Date falls within the coverage effective start and end dates. Therefore, it is suggested to ensure all effective records are updated with the ‘Allow Value Override’ toggle.
Election Decision
• The employee makes an election choice by clicking the coverage they want.
• When one coverage option line is toggled on, all other lines are automatically toggled off.
• If the plan participation is optional, an additional “Coverage Declined” line will be shown at the bottom of the list to give the employee the ability to opt out of the plan. On the third tab the employee will be prompted for the reason for the decline for any plans / plan election sets that they have declined in tab 2.
• In all cases where there is a choice, a “Coverage To Be Decided” line will appear at the bottom of the list to give the employee time to think about the coverage they want.
• The “Coverage To Be Decided” line will not appear if the plan participation is required and there is only one coverage level to choose from.
• Validation must be performed in order for the correct Election Decision to display after election changes are made. Validation may be done manually by pressing the Validate Button in WEBOEE and in IBPOE. Validation will also be done automatically during the Submit process when the Submit button is pressed. If changes are made by the Administrator in IBPOE, they should press the Validate button to ensure the correct Election Decision is displayed and read by any reports that may be run to capture changes.
• If the chosen coverage has an OE Question Code (ie Assessment Code) associated to it, the OE Questions button will be highlighted. The employee will be required to answer the questions in order for the validation process to pass. If the employee needs to change their answers to the questions, they may press the re-open button and then press the OE Question button to retake the assessment.
• The choice toggle determines the Election Decision for the plan as follows:
Election Decision
To Be Decided In WEBOEE the toggle is on the “To Be Decided” line. In IBPOE, no coverage is selected.
Elected, No Change The toggle is on the line that matches the current enrollment. The recipients, elected coverage and entered election amount match the current enrollment record.
Elected, With Changes Toggle is on a coverage that does not match the current enrollment. This includes changes to recipients, coverage, or entered election amount.
Declined Toggle is on the “Coverage Declined” line.
Newly Elected Toggle is on a coverage that the employee is not currently enrolled in.
Benefit Recipients
• Above the list of coverages is an LOV where employees can select the participants they wish to enroll into the coverage.
• Participants may be beneficiaries, children, dependents, or a spouse/others.
• The list of recipients available to an employee is derived from the relation type defined in IECT for each of their contacts and the recipient type defined in IBPN for each of the plan’s coverages. Please see the Benefit Recipient Matrix later in this document for a matrix displaying which relation types are allowed per recipient type.
• Participant changes are effective on the effective date of the coverage and do not impact current payrolls.
• Participants must have a Contact Role of ‘Dependent’ selected in IECT in order to display as eligible benefit recipients.

!Step 2 - Validate Election Decisions
Employees are prompted to press a validate button to ensure their election choices are valid. Extensive validation is done to ensure the elections meet any conditions which were defined in [IBPN].
For example, the validation ensures the correct number of recipients has been defined, the correct recipient type has been selected, the child/student age is within the restriction provided in [IBPN], etc..

IBPOE is a process screen that allows the Benefit Administrator to

• validate the elections
• cancel the employee’s open enrollment
• process the elections
• and if necessary, re-open the open enrollment if changes are required by the employee.

Press ‘Cancel’ to manually re-open individual plans”. If ‘Cancel’ is selected, the Re-Open Elections button located in the Plans area of the screen will become enabled and the administrator can then manually re-open plans on an individual basis. If only one plan was re-opened when the employee goes into WEBOEE to make a new choice for that plan, the other plans will be displayed as well but will not be editable. By re-opening the employee’s Open Enrollment, any assessments that were completed will be re-opened as well.
There is also a ‘Re-Open OE Questions’ button which allows the Benefit Administrator to re-open the assessment for an employee, if they have already completed the questions. A similar button is available in the WEBOEE screen as well.
