Dependent Audit Under Way
The Dependent Eligibility Audit began January 6 and will run through March 5, 2020. The audit will verify that dependents covered under a medical plan option are eligible for coverage.
As a reminder, the audit will include these specific groups:
- Any dependent spouse (legal or common-law), domestic partner, or child dependent(s) on a BMC medical plan whose eligibility has never been verified through Dependent Verification Services.
- Any dependent spouse (legal or common-law), or domestic partner on a BMC medical plan whose eligibility was verified before 2018. The 2020 audit will ask you to submit a different document than you submitted to verify eligibility in the past. For example, if you submitted a marriage certificate before, now you’ll need to submit a current tax return.
