OUR FOCUS
WHAT THIS MEANS FOR YOU
OPEN ENROLLMENT
Open enrollment is a once-a-year opportunity for all eligible employees to make benefit changes using the ADP self-service account or mobile app. You must re-enroll in all Dexter benefits every year, including any Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flexible Spending Account (FSA) contributions.

Questions about your Medical plan options? Starting in 2026, you can call a Quantum Health Care Coordinator at 844-460-2840 for assistance. For immediate assistance with choosing your medical plan, use the Lively decision support tool.
CHANGING YOUR BENEFITS?
CHANGES DURING THE YEAR (LIFE EVENTS)
Any elections you make after hire or during open enrollment will remain in effect for the entire year, unless you experience a qualifying life event. Please work with your local Dexter HR Representative within 30 days of the qualifying event to make benefit changes.
- Birth, adoption or placement for adoption/foster care
- Death of a spouse/dependent
- Change from full-time to part-time or vice versa
- Change in employment status of spouse that affects benefits eligibility
- Loss or gain of other group health plan coverage
- Dependent becomes ineligible
- Employment termination
WHO IS ELIGIBLE FOR BENEFITS?
ELIGIBLITY:
YOU:
As an active, full-time employee working at least 30 hours per week, you are eligible for benefits on your date of hire.
YOUR DEPENDENTS:
You may enroll your eligible dependents in many of the same plans you choose for yourself. Eligible dependents include:
- Your legal spouse (opposite sex or same-sex)
- Your biological, adopted, or stepchildren up to age 26, or children of any age, if incapable of self-support due to mental or physical disability
ENROLLING & MAKING CHANGES
The benefit choices you make when you first become eligible are in effect for the remainder of the plan year. It's important to review your benefit options and choose the best coverage for you and your family. You have three opportunities to enroll in or make changes to your benefits:
QUALIFYING LIFE EVENTS
Life changes and your benefits can, too. Certain events allow you to update your coverage or add new dependents. You have 30 days from the date of the event to submit your benefit changes and provide the required verification documents.
ADP will reach out directly to you to verify your dependents.
