WAC 182-12-136
May an employee on approved educational
leave waive continuation coverage? In
order to avoid duplication of group health plan coverage, the
following shall apply to employees during any period of
approved educational leave. Employees eligible for
continuation coverage provided in WAC 182-12-133 who obtain
comprehensive health plan coverage under another group plan
may waive continuance of such coverage for each full calendar
month in which they maintain coverage under the other
comprehensive group health plan. These employees have the
right to reenroll in a PEBB health plan effective the first
day of the month after the date the other comprehensive group
health plan coverage ends, provided evidence of such other
comprehensive group health plan coverage is provided to the
PEBB program upon application for
reenrollment.
