FedEx Medical Question

[BonesF15]

Do any of you Fedex types know when the medical benefits actually start?
Is it the first day or 30 days later like some other places?

Thanks,
Bones

Day 1 of indoc.

Beware- unless you live in certain cities, you may only be eligible for the 80/20 plan. We had a baby with a few problems while I was in new hire training, and it cost me $3500 right away out of pocket - and $10,000 over the first three years. You may want to Cobra your existing insurance - if you have real insurance...

Bones....you need to let your wife put down her suitcase before you start breeding! Your benefits start day 1, so no...you don't have to "hold out" for 30 days...

Seriously...its an awesome feeling at day 1 at FedEx when they say "congrats....as of 0800 today you are covered...."

Fedex dudes,
Thanks for the info, I just didn't know if I needed to sign the misses up for tricare until her bennies kick in after 30 days.
I am happy that it starts on day 1 with no lapse in coverage or cobra etc.
