Summer premiums for medical, dental and/or vision coverage are collected during the calendar year in which the summer coverage is provided. Premiums for the 1st part of the summer (May 15 - June 30) are collected, in advance, during the winter semester. Premiums for the 2nd part of the summer (July 1 - August 31) are collected, in arrears, during the fall semester.

Employees not returning in the fall semester:

If a 9-month employee (including retirees) is not returning for the fall semester, coverage will continue through August 31 unless the employee elects to terminate as of June 30. If you wish to terminate as of June 30, please send an email to askhr@wayne.edu, by March 15th.

• For coverage through August 31: Deductions for the second part of the summer will be collected on a pre-pay basis at the end of the winter semester by taking double the normal deductions on pay periods 8, 9 & 10 (see Payroll calendar).
• For coverage through June 30: Deductions will continue as normal until employment ends in May.

If we are not notified prior to March 15th and a 9-month employee does not return for the fall semester, coverage will continue through August 31 and premiums for the second part of the summer (July 1 – August 31) will be billed by our third party administrator, Navia Benefit Solutions.
