Coverage Level & Who Can Be Covered
Employee Only
Employee + Spouse/Partner
Employee + Child(ren)
Employee + Family
You may cover the following dependents as long as you are enrolled in a plan yourself and can provide documentation to confirm eligibility:
Your spouse/partner
You or your spouse/partner’s eligible children up to age 26 (their eligibility ends the last day of the month the child turns 26).
Your disabled children of any age, if they are covered under your medical plan and disabled prior to losing eligibility. They must also be legally or financially dependent as defined by the IRS for federal tax purposes.
Required: Proof of dependent(s) eligibility. If you elect to cover dependents under a Chubb health plan, you will be asked to provide documentation (e.g., marriage, birth certificate, affidavit for partner) to confirm your dependent’s identity. You must submit documentation for each dependent within the specified timeframe or risk losing coverage for your dependent(s).
If you are required to provide documentation, you will receive more information and reminders about steps you need to take.
What You Will Pay
You share the cost of medical insurance with Chubb in Pretax payroll deductions. You will see your bi-weekly costs for each plan as you enroll on the Chubb Benefits Portal. Your paycheck premiums for the medical plan will be based on the plan you choose, the network, the dependents you cover and the following surcharges:
Your tobacco-use status. Chubb medical plans include a tobacco premium surcharge for employees and/or covered spouses/partners who use tobacco products: $50 per month (one user) or $100 per month (both users). The tobacco attestation you made last year will automatically continue unless you change your attestation.
Your spouse’s/partner’s access to coverage. If you cover a spouse/partner who has access to medical coverage through his/her employer, a surcharge of $100 per month will be applied to your medical plan premiums.
Completion of biometric screening for you and your spouse/partner. If you or your spouse/partner did not complete the screening in 2024, your 2025 annual premium will show an additional annual amount of $625 or $1,250 depending on whether one or both of you did not complete the screening.
