    Opt-Out Payout

    Employees who waive their School Employee Health Benefits and Dental and Vision benefits for other coverage are not eligible for a waiver incentive if their other coverage is with the State Health Benefits Program (SHBP) or School Employee Health Benefit Program (SEHBP) .  This is a state law and not a district rule.  If your coverage is not with SHBP or SEHBP you may qualify for an opt-out payout.  The district has determined for those eligible the opt-out payout will be $4000.00 for family and $2500.00 for single if you are eligible to opt-out for the entire benefit year.  If you are eligible and your start date is 8/1 or after the opt-out payout is pro-rated.
