To become eligible for coverage, a member must have 600 work hours contributed within a six month period.  Eligibility begins on the first day of the second month following and may extend for up to four months.  Member may then be eligible to self pay until the next year's eligibility plan year beginning March 1. 
If a new member does not receive four months of coverage due to becoming eligible shortly before the annual coverage period, the member will receive of 150 hours per month of unused coverage.  Example:  Member reaches 600 hours in November, eligible for four months of coverage beginning January.  He would receive eligible for January and February.  New coverage period begins March 1, therefore he has two months of unused coverage.  He will receive 150 hours per month (total for example 300 hours) credited towards his annual requirement.

Plan A has the highest level of Medical and Prescription coverage, and also offers Dental and Vision coverage as well.  Plan B offers Medical and Prescription coverage only, with a larger copay and annual deductible that will be the member’s responsibility.  Plan B does not offer Dental or Vision coverage. 

Plan A requires 1400 hours total for coverage. Plan B requires 1000 hours total for coverage.
