Evidence of Insurability

If electing Voluntary Life insurance (excluding new hire guaranteed issue), you will need to complete a New York Life “Insurance Application and Evidence of Insurability” form through your UKG election. Your benefit will be effective only after approval from New York Life.

What is a...

Guaranteed Issue: the dollar amount that will be issued without submitting proof of insurability, such as answering medical questions on an application or completing a medical exam. Check with your employer to see if you’re eligible for the Guaranteed Issue.

Evidence of Insurability: A medical questionnaire for you or any dependent you are trying to add or increase coverage for. Your insurance carrier may require this form because it wants to evaluate the risk of insuring you.

ABOUT THIS GUIDE: Actual plan provisions for Mercy Housing (“the Company”) benefits are contained in the appropriate plan documents, including the Summary Plan Description (SPD) and incorporated benefit/carrier booklets. The Digital Benefits Hub is a summary only and does not describe each benefit option. This Digital Benefits Hub provides updates to your existing SPD as of the first day of plan year, which describes your health and welfare benefits in greater detail. Until the Company provides you with an updated SPD, this guide is intended to be a Summary of Material Modification (SMM) and should be retained with your records along with your SPD. As always, the official plan documents determine what benefits are available to you. If any discrepancy exists between this guide and the official documents, the official documents will prevail. The Company reserves the right to amend or terminate any of its plans or policies, make changes to the benefits, costs, and other provisions relative to benefits at any time with or without notice, subject to applicable law.
