SPECIAL EDITION
2004-2005 INSURANCE OPEN ENROLLMENT

Hello,

We have prepared this special edition of MI Civil Service News to provide you with a summary of the State's important 2004-2005 Insurance Open Enrollment. We also want to tell you about a special amnesty program for employees who may currently have ineligible dependents enrolled on their insurance plan.

This newsletter is by no means all-inclusive of the information you should read to fully understand your employee benefit options. Please review the package of materials that was sent to your homes. In addition, please visit the Department of Civil Service web site at www.michigan.gov/mdcs for details regarding the various plans available to you and the dependent eligibility guidelines.

We will continue to inform you about upcoming events via this newsletter. Remember, this is YOUR newsletter. We welcome your suggestions and comments on this and future editions of MI Civil Service News. Please direct your comments to MDCS-CivilServiceNews@michigan.gov or Michigan Department of Civil Service, MI CS News, 400 South Pine Street, Lansing, Michigan 48933.

Sincerely,


Janet McClelland
Acting State Personnel Director
