12/22/2010   Renew-as-is schedule for February 2011 effective dates

In November, we announced a renew-as-is process for groups of 1 to 99 that are renewing on our newer, health-focused plans without benefit changes, and we implemented it on Nov. 30. Below is a timeline showing the end-to-end process for Feb. renewals.

Action February Renewal
Group's renewal released Dec. 6
Group Size Certification sent to group Dec. 20
Group is automatically renewed as is Jan. 1
Group's bill is released Jan. 6
Last day to cancel policy Jan. 31
Last day to make changes Feb. 28

We hope this schedule helps you support a smooth renewal experience for your clients. We'll publish a similar timeline for March. Also, below is a quick reference you can use to determine what we need in which situations.

Action What Regence Needs
No changes Nothing
Non-benefit changes only Renewal and Maintenance Change Request Form
Benefit (or rates for 51+) changes Group Master Application
Cancel Cancel notice

If you have any questions or need additional clarification on this new process, please talk to your Regence Sales contact.
