Annual Renewal is Open Now Through September 27

Annual renewal for group benefit plans opened this morning, August 14. Rate sheets for 2020 were emailed to the primary benefits administrator at each cooperative and rates are also available online. Renewal calculations and other co-op-specific reports for experience-rated co-ops covering 100 or more lives were also sent by a separate email.

Go online to send in your annual renewals for group benefit plans until September 27. This year, we’ve updated the look and feel, workflow and language on the Benefit Plan Rating and Renewal landing page based on feedback from benefits administrators. The modeling and renewal functions of the feature remain the same. For instructions and reminders on selecting subgroups, managing COBRA administration, confirming plans and completing other tasks from the landing page, visit the Benefit Plan Rating & Renewal Instructions page in the BA Guide.

You also can find out more about the actions you need to take and access the materials for annual renewal on the Annual Renewal page of the BA Guide.

Before you confirm your plans or make any other changes, we ask that you carefully review your plans to ensure that you are confirming the plan designs you intend to adopt for 2020.

If you have questions or need help with annual renewal, speak with your field representative. You also can contact the Member Contact Center at 866.673.2299 or contactcenter@nreca.coop.
