Time to Check Your First Pay Stub of New Year
You'll want to take a close look at your first pay stub in 2013 to verify deductions for benefits coverage you elected during annual enrollment last November. Your online pay stub is available through the ADP Portal. The 2013 rate sheet showing contributions per pay period for medical, dental and vision coverage is available here.
Here are some specific items you may want to look for as you review your pay stub:
Benefit Coverage
Your 2013 benefit deductions may be higher or lower than last year, depending on your elections during the annual enrollment period and whether you qualified for the wellness discount on medical coverage. To verify your 2013 deductions, compare your first 2013 pay stub against the confirmation statement you printed during enrollment. Some of the items your pay stub will show include:
- Pay period deductions for medical, dental, vision, flexible spending accounts and other coverage you elected or received for 2013.
- Health Savings Account (HSA) contributions if you participate in the Aetna Health Savings Plan and elected an HSA annual contribution amount.
If you didn't print a confirmation statement after you enrolled, you can see your 2013 benefits coverage any time on the Your Benefits Resources™ (YBR) website. Select the Health and Insurance tab at the top of the page and then click on Current Coverage. You can also call Your Benefits Resources at 1-877-262-4849 if you have any questions about your benefits deductions. Representatives are available weekdays from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m., Eastern time.
BMC 401(k) Plan
Unless you requested a change, the regular before-tax or Roth 401(k) contributions you were making to the BMC 401(k) Plan in 2012 will continue. You can make or change contribution elections at any time.
- Regular before-tax, Roth or after-tax 401(k) contributions are displayed on your pay stub.
- If your contributions were stopped during 2012 because you reached the IRS contribution limit(s), you’ll see that your previous contribution percentage has been reinstated automatically.
- If you are eligible to make age 50 catch-up contributions in 2013, you must make an election to participate and can do so at any time during the year. If you have any questions or want to make changes to your BMC 401(k) Plan contribution elections, log on to the Fidelity NetBenefits website. You may also make changes by calling Fidelity NetBenefits® at 1-866-546-4424.
