If someone waives coverage, they can't sign up for Kaiser until our next open enrollment month (generally November of every year), unless they've lost their non-Kaiser coverage through no fault of their own.
 
  
To waive coverage, print out the waive.pdf form located in fgstaff/health_insurance; hard copies in the health insurance file and have the waive-er fill it out.  Keep it on file in his/her real-world personnel file in the filing cabinet.

At Free Geek, Collective members are eligible for health insurance the first day of the month they are hired.  
We can do this online.
 
# [http://employers.kaiserpermanente.org/kpweb/gatewaycas/entrypage.do Log onto] our account.
 
# Under "Member Functions", select "Subscriber List".
 
# Select the outgoing employee with the radio button, then select "Terminate Coverage" from the Member Functions menu.
 
# Fill out the form and press the "Submit" button.
 
  
===Continuation Option===
+
Permanent staff members are eligible for health insurance after they have passed a 6-month probationary review.
By Oregon law, we must offer up to 6 months of continued health insurance for terminated/laid off/resigning employees.  It should be offered as part of the [[Staff Exit Procedure]].  The employee would pay their own premium, copays, other fees, etc.  Please see [[Health Insurance Continuation]] for instructions on how to offer this coverage.
 
  
==Yearly Census==
+
Temporary workers are not eligible for Free Geek's health insurance plan.
There's a census form in the fgstaff/health_insurance directory.  Kaiser wants us to fill one of these out every November so they know how many employees we have and how many of them have Kaiser and stuff.
