Mid-year Benefits Changes (Life Events)
Except as otherwise provided by law and as stated in the Eligibility Requirements of the Employee Benefits Guide (page 1), you cannot change your pre-tax benefits during the plan year unless you experience a qualifying life event. Any proposed benefit change must correspond with, and be due to, the type of life event you experience.
Examples of a qualifying event are: marriage, divorce, birth, adoption, etc.
All mid-year changes (Life Events) must be reported and completed via PlanSource within 30 days from the date of the event, which includes uploading all required documentation.
Watch a tutorial on how to submit a mid-year change to your benefits through the Benefits Launchpad at My Benefits Launchpad (You must be logged into the ACPS network to access this page)
Step-by-Step instructions on how to submit a mid-year change to your benefits may be found on page 5 of the Employee Benefits Guide (center).

Separation of Employment/Termination of Benefits
The Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (COBRA) allows workers and their families to continue group health benefits under certain circumstances, such as job loss, transition between jobs, death, or divorce.
After termination/separation from Alachua County Public Schools, a Notification of Termination of Benefits email is sent to your email address, as listed in your PlanSource profile. You may need to provide this proof of coverage to obtain new coverage with another employer or through Marketplace. To ensure timely receipt, update your preferred contact information in PlanSource with your current email address prior to your separation.
In addition, COBRA details will be sent to your home address within 10 days from the date the Benefits Department receives your Separation from Service form. To ensure timely delivery, update your home mailing address with Human Resources prior to your separation.
