Your divorce/annulment is a benefit “Qualifying Life Event.” You are allowed to make changes to your benefit plans within 30 days of your divorce or annulment date.*

BENEFITS CHANGES TO MAKE

Based on your current enrollment situation, you may need to:

  • Remove your spouse from your plans – If you are currently enrolled in Bass Pro Shops benefits you will need to remove your ex-spouse from all benefits.
  • Add dependent children – If you need to cover your children with health care benefits, now is the time to add them.
  • Enroll in coverage – If you are not enrolled in Bass Pro Shops health care plans, you may enroll yourself and your children at this time.

IMPORTANT REMINDERS

  • Based on your Medical Plan choice, you may want to add to a Health Care or Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account (FSA) or Health Savings Account (HSA).
  • Review your life insurance beneficiary designations.
  • Add your children to Child Basic Life. The amount of coverage is $2,500 per child and is provided at NO COST to you by the company. However, you must select it and add your dependent children.

Your changes are effective on the date of the DIVORCE OR ANNULMENT.

Documentation is required.
Premiums are collected as of the event date.
