Voluntary Disability: Enrollment

Questions?
Questions about plan administration, record keeping, and payroll deductions may be referred to MGIS at:

(800) 969-6447, ext. 175
9:30 AM to 6:15 PM EST

Complete the enrollment form and a Personal Health Statement and return them to our plan record keeping administrator:

The MGIS Companies
P.O.Box 16110
Salt Lake City, UT 84116-0110

Send the completed forms even if you decide not to enroll, and keep a copy of it for your records. MGIS will mail you a confirmation of coverage and a booklet-certificate, if you elect to enroll.


Effective Date

The effective date of your coverage depends on the date you enroll and whether proof of good health is required. If you:

  • Are a newly hired employee and you enroll within your first 60 days of eligibility, coverage will begin on the first of the month following the date your enrollment form is received by MGIS.
     
  • Enroll after this initial eligibility period, you are required to complete a Personal Health Statement, which must be approved by Hartford Life and Accident Insurance Company before coverage can begin.

If you are absent from work because of a disability on the day your coverage is to become effective, your coverage will begin when you have returned to active work for one full day.

Your coverage continues as long as you remain an eligible employee, the group policy remains in effect, and premiums are paid. If the group policy or your employment at Duke terminates while you are receiving benefits, your payments will continue as long as you are disabled and eligible for benefits.
