CAN I MAKE MID-YEAR PLAN CHANGES TO MY GROUP HEALTH INSURANCE?
An employer’s ability to allow employees to cancel or change health plan elections is governed by the Internal Revenue Code. Section 125 of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) governs how employers provide benefits to employees on a pre-tax basis. After an employee has made an initial enrollment election, Section 125 does not permit changes outside of yearly open enrollment except for certain, specific reasons. The permitted Section 125 changes are the qualified “change-of-status” events described below:
