4 Who is People First?  Plan administrator for State of Florida insurance, including state universities like UCF  Responsible for the following: Plan Enrollments Dependent Eligibility Qualifying Status Changes Open Enrollment COBRA

5 Using People First to Enroll  Online https://peoplefirst.myflorida.com User ID and Password Required  Service Center 1-866-663-4735 Available Monday-Friday 8:00am to 6:00pm ET To Receive User ID: 1.

6  Default password: Pf + Birth date (PfMMDDYY) Enter ID and Password

7 People First will not send an enrollment packet until they have all the necessary information, including a valid Social Security Number and a valid address. Missing information can cause a delay in the start of health coverage for you and your family.

8  If you are rehired or transferring from another State University within 26 weeks or  Are rehired/transferring from another non-university State agency within 13 weeks: You are not considered a new employee in terms of benefits enrollment by the State. The benefits that you were previously enrolled in will be reinstated upon your rehire without a Qualified Status Change event to cancel or change benefits. If you are transferring from another State Agency, a new UCF People First ID will be assigned to you by People First.

9  Employees have 60 days from hire date to enroll in insurance.  Employees in regular positions may elect health insurance to begin the month after they are hired – this is called an early effective date.  For example, if you are hired in June, you can start your health insurance July 1.  Note: The state currently does not offer an early effective date to OPS employees.  The eligibility requirements for the early effective date include:  A new employee’s information must be in the People First system.  The first full month’s premium must be received.

10 Employees have two ways to change insurance elections after 60-day enrollment window: 1. Qualifying Status Change  Marriage, divorce, birth of child, spouse insurance termination, etc.  Employees have 60 days from event to contact People First. 2. Open Enrollment  Held each fall  Coverage effective January 1 of following year
