Plan Year & Enrollment

The benefit plan year starts September 1st and ends August 31st. Once you have enrolled in the plan, the plan will automatically renew each year unless you make allowable changes during the Spring Enrollment period or you experience a qualifying event allowed by the IRS for Cafeteria Plans. For more information, visit the Benefits webpage. The deductible will reset at the beginning of each plan year. 

Insurance Cards

Once enrolled in the plan, employees will not receive a membership card. The provider will be able to look up the employee by the social security number. Delta Dental members may also download the free Delta Dental App. This will provide members with virtual membership card that can be shown to providers.
