Insurance
Regular employees scheduled to work a minimum of 30 hours per week (at least 75% full time) are eligible to enroll in the health insurance plans. Enrollment is not automatic.
The employee will complete the State of Tennessee Insurance enrollment forms during new hire orientation. Coverage becomes effective the first of the month following completion of one full calendar month of employment if all applicable forms are completed. Eligible state, local education and local government employees may enroll in health coverage through the state group insurance program. Available options include the Premier PPO and the Standard PPO. There are specific guidelines regarding the time frame in which you and your eligible dependents must enroll.
Please see the Eligibility and Enrollment Guide for specific information regarding eligibility and enrollment.
