Mid-Year Benefit Changes
Cafeteria Plan & Making Benefit Election Changes
The District is able to offer medical, dental, vision, and flexible spending plan premiums on a pre-tax basis. This is known as a Cafeteria Plan and is operated under Section 125 of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). Offering benefits on a pre-tax basis allows the District and employees to save tax dollars; however, it also limits when enrollments and changes are permissible. Changes to your benefits outside of the New Hire Eligibility and Spring Enrollment periods will be subject to the limitations of the District’s Cafeteria Plan as outlined in the Qualifying Life Event Guide. The District will not make any enrollments or changes that do not correlate with the qualified changes in this document.
How to make a Mid-Year Change
If you have experienced a qualifying event, you may initiate a Mid-Year change in ARCORO (formerly InfinityHR), our online benefit platform. Most changes need to be made within 30 days of the qualifying event. You have 60 days to make changes due to marriage, birth/adoption, or if your or your eligible dependent loses coverage under Medicaid or a state Children's Health Insurance Program or becomes eligible for state-provided premium assistance.
Select the appropriate qualifying event from the dropdown menu in ARCORO, and follow the steps to make the necessary changes to your benefits. You will be required to provide documentation to support your Mid-Year Change. Documents can be uploaded securely in ARCORO or emailed to benefits@boiseschools.org. We do not recommend emailing birth certificates or Social Security Cards. Changes cannot be approved until the documentation is received. To avoid back premiums, please provide the documentation as soon as possible.
Logging In: User ID - Employee ID followed by the last five (5) of your social security number (SSN).
