I know about the new laws regarding dependent children 26 on your medical plan, but does that include any dental plans...

Typically, no. It depends on your carrier and how your contract is written. We just had this come up.

All of my clients decided to administer their dental and vision plans the same way as the medical plans even though it isn't required. It would be an internal headache to have different dependent eligibility rules by plan. Most dental/vision carriers did not even load up their rates to accomodate the broader eligibility.

Daily Q&A

How to Address Flagging Motivation?

How do I increase motivation levels in the department? How do I brand my business unit as an attractive place to work? I have top-notch IT professionals in my business unit who feel they are "children of a lesser God" because they are non-billable resources and do not get plum postings abroad, nor the glamour that goes with them. As a result, their motivation suffers.
