Who Is Eligible
You are eligible for benefits if you are a regular full-time or part-time employee working 20 or more hours per week. You may also enroll your eligible family members under certain plans you choose for yourself. Eligible family members include:
- Your legally married spouse
- Your domestic partner who meets employer rules and requirements under state law
- If you are enrolling a domestic partner to benefits, the Domestic Partnership Affidavit Form is required for benefits eligibility
- Children who are your biological children, stepchildren, adopted children, children of your domestic partner or children for whom you have legal custody (age restrictions may apply). Disabled children age 26 or older who meet certain criteria may continue on your health coverage.

When Coverage Begins
- New Hires: You must complete the enrollment process within 31 days of your date of hire. If you enroll on time, coverage is effective on your date of hire. If you fail to enroll on time, you will NOT have benefits coverage (except for company-paid benefits such as life and disability coverage).
- Open Enrollment: Changes made during Open Enrollment are effective the following calendar year.
- Qualifying Life Events (QLEs): Changes made under a QLE are effective retro to the date of the life event.
Choose Carefully
Due to IRS regulations, you cannot change your elections until the next annual Open Enrollment period, unless you have a qualified life event during the year. Following are examples of the most common qualified life events:
- Marriage or divorce
- Birth or adoption of a child
- Child reaching the maximum age limit of 26
- Death of a spouse, domestic partner, or child
- You lose coverage under your spouse’s/domestic partner’s plan
- You gain access to state coverage under Medicaid or CHIP
Making Changes
To make changes to your benefit elections, you must log in to your PlanSource account at benefits.plansource.com or email benefits@clearwayenergy.com to initiate a life event within 31 days of the qualified life event. Be prepared to show documentation of the event such as a marriage license, birth certificate or a divorce decree. If changes are not submitted on time, you must wait until the next Open Enrollment period to make your election changes.
Required Information
As part of The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), we are required to report annual health plan information to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to verify that you and your eligible family members are enrolled in coverage and are not subject to a tax penalty. In order for us to satisfy this reporting requirement, you will be prompted at enrollment to enter the Social Security number (SSN) for all covered dependent(s) for which this information is missing. You can rest assured that your personal information will be securely submitted to the IRS and will remain confidential.
