This policy was created to ensure compliance with respect to the new Health Care laws in Massachusetts. Without coverage you may incur a tax penalty when you file your MA state taxes.

4 When will my benefits begin? DATE OF HIRE Your benefits will begin on your date of hire, unless you take action to designate another date. If you have medical coverage elsewhere, you can “opt out” of coverage through Partners. Opting out MUST be done within 30 days of your hire date OTHERWISE You will automatically be enrolled in BCBS Partners Value – Individual If you elect to “opt out” of coverage, you will receive a HIRD* form to complete and return to benefits. (* Health Insurance Responsibility Disclosure)
