Voya's EOI Process - News and Reminder
Employees who made changes during Open Enrollment to their Term Life benefit that required an EOI have either received or will be receiving their EOI form to complete.
Most EOI forms were mailed in December and due in January. However, a subset of employees for which an EOI was required, mistakenly did not receive an EOI initially, but instead, first received a follow-up notice before receiving an EOI.
This issue has been resolved and these employees have been issued a proper EOI form with a due date in February along with explanation from Voya.
As a reminder, the effective date for employees whose election required EOI is dependent on the EOI approval date. Once this approval occurs, Benefitfocus updates their system.
Payroll should then be updated to reflect the new premium amount. The workflow is being updated to generate a task once the amount is updated. Best practice is to check these tasks on a weekly basis.
