I am a newly eligible employee. When can I enroll in an OGB health plan?

Newly eligible employees have 30 days from their date of eligibility to enroll in an OGB health plan. If the employee misses the 30 day deadline, he/she can enroll during the next annual enrollment period usually held in October for the next plan year or upon an OGB Plan Recognized Qualified Life Event.
