PART G: EMPLOYEE CERTIFICATION (50-100% FTE)
I understand that my Employer makes no guarantee that any benefits I
elect under this Plan will be excludable from my gross income for federal or state income
tax purposes. I understand that it is my obligation to determine whether or not each payment made under this Plan is excludable from my gross income for federal
and state income or Social Security tax and to notify my Employer if I am aware that any particular payment may not be excludable. I agree that if I receive one or
more reimbursements under this Plan that are not excludable from income under the Internal Revenue Code, I will indemnify and reimburse my Employer for any
tax that may be due on such reimbursement.
I acknowledge that I have reviewed the options available to me for my Employer's Flexible Spending Plan. If I marked "Enrollment” to any of the Flexible Spending
Plan elections, I am electing to participate in the Plan for the entire plan year and authorize my Employer to reduce my salary and contribute the corresponding
amount to the Flexible Spending Plan as indicated on this Election Agreement. Should my premiums change in the future, I authorize my Employer to adjust my
reduction and corresponding contribution as permitted by the Internal Revenue Code to reflect the change.
I understand that following an unpaid leave of absence, I will be required to “catch up” on any missed Medical Expense Plan deductions while on leave.
I understand that once these elections are made, I cannot change them during the plan year, except as permitted by the Plan in accordance with Internal Revenue
Service regulations.
Information on this application is given to obtain insurance and is true and complete to the best of my knowledge and belief. I authorize my employer to set my
effective dates of coverage and to deduct monthly employee contribution for each benefit plan from my salary, wages, or other compensation including any
contribution increase, decrease, adjustment, or cancellation as required by the Health Plan Agreement under applicable laws, policies, and procedures. I and any
listed dependent agree to abide by the provisions of the service agreement and/or medical insurance contract and health plan regulations. I agree to abide by the
terms and conditions of the Group Plan Contract(s) issued to the Research Corporation of the University of Hawaii. I have read the COBRA General Notice and I
understand my rights for Continuation of Health Coverage under COBRA. I also understand that I must inform my dependents covered under my health insurance
of their rights.
I understand that failure to comply with the above or providing inaccurate information or falsifying the information contained in this form may result in disciplinary
action including termination of employment. Legal action may be brought against me and/or my Dependents/Spouse/Domestic Partner/Civil Union Partner for any
losses, damages (including, but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees and other legal expenses), financial or otherwise, due to false statements provided on this
enrollment (or related) form or for failure to timely notify RCUH of changed circumstances as required. In addition, any health benefits (ex., monthly premiums,
claims, etc.) paid by the RCUH health plans on behalf of the Employee’s dependents will be reversed and become the responsibility of the Employee.
