10/14/2010   Small-group census date goes into effect January 2011

Earlier this year, Governor Gregoire signed SB 6538 into law, defining the census date for renewing small groups (1 to 50) as 90 days prior to the renewal's effective date.

Due to the enactment of SB 6538, we're making the following changes to our Community-group processes starting with Jan. 1, 2011, effective dates:

  • Renewal delivery date
    The timeline for downloading the census information for renewing groups has been reduced from 120 to 90 days. Therefore, we'll deliver Community renewals through Agent Center 55 days prior to the group's effective date.
  • New-group final rates
    Final rates will be based on the enrollment we receive at the time of a new Community group's final sale. Therefore, we're eliminating the 5% test rule on all new Community groups.
If you have any questions, please talk to your Asuris Sales contact.
