Important Information You Need to Know for 2022

We are happy to introduce this microsite as a self-service benefits resource that provides resources to help you make informed decisions about your benefits. On this website, you will find details on your benefits (Summary of Benefits and Coverage or SBCs), important eligibility and enrollment information, and Legal Notices. Note: You still complete a paper enrollment form to enroll for 2022.
There are no plan design changes (such as copays, coinsurance, deductibles, etc.) to the benefit plans.
We’re introducing a few new special programs to help you get great care and save money too, such as Aetna Concierge Customer Service, PinnacleCare health advisory services, and more.

See your Benefits Administrator for your weekly associate contributions.
Each enrolled associate and spouse/partner may still qualify for a $100 ShopRite gift card for completing an annual physical. All other well-being incentives and premium discounts/holidays are being discontinued. Well-being activities (e.g., the Aetna Health Assessment and Tobacco Cessation Program), which are important to your overall health, continue to be encouraged.

Note: Payment of the $100 incentive for obtaining an age-appropriate physical exam from your physician is not conditioned on you or your spouse providing any genetic information (e.g., family medical history) to your employer or to your employer’s medical plan.

Who is eligible for benefits?

The ShopRite benefit plans described in this guide are available to full-time, non-union associates and their eligible dependents.

Your eligible dependents include:

Your spouse to whom you are legally married. If your spouse is eligible for medical coverage through his/her employer, then he/she is not eligible for primary medical coverage through ShopRite.
Your same sex domestic partner (contact your Benefits Administrator for more details). If your domestic partner is eligible for medical coverage through his/her employer, then he/she is not eligible for primary medical coverage through ShopRite.
Your dependent child(ren) until the end of the month he/she turns age 26. For example, if your child was born March 2, 1996, your child is eligible for medical, dental, and vision coverage until March 31, 2022.
Eligible dependent child(ren):
- Does not need to be a full-time student
- Is not required to live with you
- Does not need to be an eligible dependent on the parent’s tax return
- May be married or unmarried (your child’s spouse and children are not eligible)
Your unmarried children of any age who are permanently and totally disabled physically or mentally for whom you provide financial support. You must periodically provide medical documentation of such disability.

Making Changes During the Year

After the Open Enrollment period ends, you cannot change your elections during the year unless you have a “qualified change in family status” and you notify your Benefits Administrator within 30 days of the event. Qualified life events (QLE) are defined by the IRS and include:

Marriage, divorce or legal separation
Birth or adoption of a child or placement of a child for adoption
Death of a dependent
Child is no longer eligible due to reaching limiting age
Change in spouse’s employment status that results in a gain or loss of coverage, such as beginning or terminating employment, or changing status from full-time to part-time

Understand your options

You have access to various benefit plans for you and your family. If this is your first year enrolling, please take the time to review your options to ensure you are making the best choice for you and your family. If you are currently enrolled, it’s always a good practice to review and confirm your information.
