NATIONAL HEALTH AND WELFARE PLAN SPOUSE AUDIT BEGINS IN JANURARY, 2020
Beginning January 1, 2020, The Railroad Employees National Health and Welfare Plan and The National Railway Carriers and United Transportation Union (NRC/UTU) Health and Welfare Plan (each a "Plan") will conduct a spouse eligibility audit, which will be administered by Railroad Enrollment Services.

Railroad employees covered under either of the above Plans will be required to submit proper documentation by March 31, 2020 verifying their marital status in order for their spouses (and any stepchildren associated with the marriage) to remain covered.

Employees will receive an initial mailing in December explaining the audit process with instructions on how to respond, the Plan's definition of a spouse, and preferred documents for verification.

If an employee does not respond to the audit request in accordance with the instructions provided, their spouse (and any stepchildren associated with the marriage, if applicable) will be terminated from the medical, dental, and vision plans as soon as administratively practicable.
