Although you may currently have medical coverage on yourself or other family members, coverage on your newborn is not automatic. Under your medical plan, you may enroll for the first time, increase coverage, or add your new dependent on an existing family plan. Your share of the premium costs may be increased depending on the change. Any changes will be prorated to the date of the event. To add your child to your benefits, you may enroll in one of the following ways:
Life Insurance You may want to consider purchasing life insurance for your child or changing the amount of life insurance you currently purchase for yourself. Flexible Spending Accounts You may also want to elect to participate in or change the amount you contribute to your Flexible Spending Account (FSA) and enroll in the WHOI Child Care Subsidy Benefit. Beneficiary Change It is important to keep a record of your beneficiary designations and to update them whenever your circumstances change. Keep a copy of all beneficiary designations and review them periodically. You may change your beneficiary designations at any time. New Parent Transition Program Your Employee & Student Assistance Program (ESAP) offers a special 'New Parent Transition' program for parents. The program is designed to provide new, veteran, and adoptive parents with the tools, resources, and live support needed to balance their home and work life.
