Urgent Eligibility Question Answered: Mid-Year Enrollment for Spouse

We received an urgent consulting question from a client with a VIP plan member who was asking whether he would be able to add his spouse to the group health plan mid-year once she immigrated to the U.S. on a visa that summer. The client was not sure whether this was a qualifying event. The member was very upset, and the client needed an answer that same day.

After review, our ICE team was able to research this issue and provide a clear and concise answer to the client within hours.
