Liberty Hill ISD offers a choice of health insurance plans and dental care plans. Employees may also choose vision, disability insurance, life insurance, and other supplemental insurance benefits as well as cafeteria plan payroll deductions. All employees contribute to the Texas Teachers Retirement System (TRS). They may also contribute to a personal retirement account such as a 403(b) or 457.
New hires have 30 days from the date of their hire to choose their benefits coverage on The Beacon. Regular employees may elect to change their medical and supplemental coverage during the district's annual open enrollment periods each year on The Beacon. If you have a qualifying life event during the plan year you have 30 days to make changes to your benefits by notifying the Benefits Coordinator, Lisa Garner at 512-260-5580 or by messaging the benefits team here.
MID-YEAR CHANGES
The benefits you choose will remain in effect throughout the plan year (from September 1 - August 31). You may only add or cancel coverage during the year if you have a qualifying change in family or employment status that causes you to gain or lose eligibility for benefits. Employees have 31 days after a qualifying event to make changes based on that event. It is the responsibility of the employee to notify the employer of such changes and to complete the proper paperwork.
Qualifying changes may include:
- A change in your legal marital status
- A change in your number of dependents as a result of birth, adoption, legal custody, or if your dependent child satisfies or ceases to satisfy eligibility requirements for coverage, or the death of a pendent child or spouse
- A change in employment status for you or your spouse
- Loss or gain of eligibility for other insurance (including CHIP & Medicaid—60-day notification deadline)
