    Health Insurance Plan Year
    July 1 - June 30th 
    (Aetna uses calendar year for their benefits and deductibles.)
     
    Below are links to each plan's SBC so that you can make comparisons, and below them is as an updated cost chart listing each plan. The district will not be offering new rate tiers due to the significant cost increase for these options. We will continue to offer single or family plans.
     
     
     
    Opt-Out forms will be accepted during an individual’s initial benefit eligibility period, open enrollment, or at the time of a qualifying life event.  This will allow you to save the cost of deductions and earn back up to $4,000 for family coverage or $2,500 for single coverage. 
     
     

    This is the Health Benefit Costs Chart for the period of 7/1/22-6/30/23. You are eligible to enroll only in the Aetna NJ Educators Health Plan or the Garden State Health Plan if your hire date is on or after 7/1/20.  If your hire date is before 7/1/20 you can choose any plan. To determine your Dental and/or Vision per-pay costs, look at the annual cost, multiply that amount by the appropriate percentage from the Percentage of Premium Chart, and divide by 20 (10-month employee) or 24 (12-month employee).  Add the amounts to determine a per-pay deduction.
