Determining who is covered

In the report parameters of Life Insurance Reportable Income (BN150), type the date for which the report is being run. BN150 uses all benefits in effect on that date.

To determine whether a plan covers employees or dependents, the Benefits Administration application uses the Covered field on Coverage Amounts (BN17.3). The field shows who is covered in a life plan.

Determining which plans cover an employee

Employees are covered under all employee life plans in which the Covered field is Employee.

Determining which plans cover dependents and spouses/domestic partners

If the Covered field is either Spouse, Domestic Partner, Spouse or Domestic Partner, Spouse and Dependents, Partner and Dependents, Spouse or Partner and Dependents for a dependent life plan, then spouses/domestic partners are covered under the plan. If the Covered field for a plan is Dependents, Partner Dependents, Spouse and Dependents, Partner and Dependents or Spouse or Partner and Dependents, then the dependents are covered in that plan.

Determining which dependents are covered in a reportable plan

The Dependent Type field determines whether a dependent in Dependent (HR13.1) receives spouse/domestic partner or dependent coverage.

How the Benefits Administration application determines which dependents are covered in dependent life plans depends on whether the Benefits Administration application tracks dependent coverage in those plans. If the Dependent Life field on Benefits Company (BN00.1) is Yes, then the Benefits Administration application tracks dependent coverage in dependent life plans.

If the Benefits Administration application tracks dependent coverage, then the Dependent Benefits subforms on HR13.1 or on benefit entry forms show which dependents are covered under an employee's health, dental, and dependent life benefits. Life Insurance Reportable Income (BN150) uses dependent benefits in effect on the date for which the report is being run.

If the Benefits Administration application does not track dependent coverage, then the application uses the Life field in HR13.1 to determine whether the dependent is covered in a reportable life insurance plan.
