IN-PERSON & SELF-ENROLL
During your annual enrollment period, a PGB Benefits Representative will be available by appointment to meet with you one-on-one to help you evaluate your benefits based on your individual and family needs, answer any questions you may have, and assist you in the enrollment process. If you prefer, you may also self-enroll online following the instructions on the Enrollment Instructions page of this site.
ANNUAL ENROLLMENT PERIOD: September 15, 2025 – October 17, 2025
ELIGIBILITY:
– Employees must work 30 hours or more per week to qualify for supplemental benefits.
IMPORTANT NOTICES:
– When do my supplemental benefits start? The plan year for Colonial Life Insurance Products runs from January 1, 2026, through December 31, 2026.
– When do my deductions for supplemental benefits start? Deductions for Colonial Life Insurance Products start January 2026 for enrolled employees.
– Why have my supplemental Cancer, Accident, or Medical Bridge benefits not started yet? The Colonial Cancer plan and the Health Screening Rider on the Colonial Accident and Colonial Medical Bridge plan have a 30-day waiting period for new enrollees. Coverage, therefore, will not begin until January 31, 2026.
– Can I sign up for PEBA Benefits as well? Pierce Group Representatives are available to educate employees on their PEBA benefits and guide them through the self-enroll process in MyBenefits. PEBA information is included in this guide for informational purposes only.
– I want to sign my family up for supplemental benefits as well, what information will I need? If signing up for any coverage on your spouse and/or children, please have their dates of birth and social security numbers available when speaking with the Benefits Representative.
– What is the difference between pre and post-tax supplemental benefits? Pre-tax benefit contributions are taken from an employee’s paycheck before state and federal taxes are applied. Post-tax benefit contributions are paid after taxes are deducted. It’s important to note that some coverages may still be subject to taxes even if paid for through pre-tax deduction or employee contribution.
– Can I change my benefit elections outside of the enrollment period? Elections made during this enrollment period CANNOT BE CHANGED AFTER THE ENROLLMENT PERIOD unless there is a family status change, otherwise known as a qualifying life event (QLE), as defined by the Internal Revenue Code. Examples of a QLE can be found here.
– I have a pre-existing condition. Will I still be covered? Some policies may include a pre-existing condition clause. Please read your policy carefully for full details.
YOU CAN MAKE THE FOLLOWING SUPPLEMENTAL BENEFIT ELECTIONS DURING THE ANNUAL ENROLLMENT PERIOD:
– Enroll in, change, or cancel Colonial coverage.
