Qualifying events are submitted from within the benefits portal, Employee Navigator. For instructions on how to complete your qualifying event, please refer to the "How to Submit a Qualifying Life Event (EN)" document located on the Health Insurance Resources page.
Please keep in mind you have 30 days (60 days if losing coverage under a state CHIP or Medicaid program) from the date of your qualifying event to submit your qualifying life event.

Can I cancel my insurance benefit(s) now or do I have to wait until open enrollment?
Pre-tax elections for insurance benefits are irrevocable under Section 125 of the Internal Revenue Code, unless an employee experiences a qualifying life event. Employers are not permitted to allow employees to make mid-year election changes unless the employee experiences a verified qualifying life event. Refer to the "Qualifying Life Event Reference Guide" located on the Health Insurance Resources page to help you determine whether you have experienced a qualifying event.
Keep in mind that you only have 30 days (60 days if losing coverage under a state CHIP or Medicaid program) from the date of your qualifying event to submit your qualifying life event within Current HR’s benefit admin portal. If you miss the 30-day (or 60-day if losing coverage under a state CHIP or Medicaid program) enrollment window, you will not be able to make a change until open enrollment.
If you have not experienced a qualifying life event, you will have the opportunity to unenroll and/or make changes to benefit selections during open enrollment, but your current benefits must remain in place in the interim.
What is difference between an embedded and aggregate deductible?
Both embedded and aggregate deductibles are types of family deductibles for health insurance plans, but they work quite differently in how you meet the deductible and receive coverage. Here's a breakdown:
Embedded Deductible
How it works: Each individual on the family plan has their own individual deductible, which is usually half of the family deductible. Once a person meets their individual deductible, they are covered, even if the overall family deductible hasn't been met. However, there's a cap – the total deductible paid by the family cannot exceed the overall family deductible.
Example: A family has a $4,000 family deductible with a $2,000 embedded individual deductible. The mom meets her $2,000 individual deductible first and is now covered. The dad later meets his $2,000 individual deductible, and he is also covered. The family has now met the overall $4,000 deductible, so even if the child incurs expenses, they are also covered.
Aggregate Deductible
How it works: Everyone on the family plan contributes towards a single family deductible. Once the combined total of everyone's medical expenses meets this deductible, the insurance company starts covering costs for everyone.
Example: A family has a $4,000 aggregate deductible. The dad incurs $1,000 in medical expenses, the mom incurs $2,500, and the child incurs $500. Once this combined total reaches $4,000, everyone is covered.
