Considerations
  • Review your benefits to determine if you need to add your spouse or dependents to coverage.
  • Compare coverage, deductibles, coinsurance/co-payments, monthly contributions, additional charges/penalties such as late cancellation charges, and determine how benefits are coordinated.
  • If you or your spouse are both employed by Marathon Petroleum, be aware that only one of you can insure eligible children, and that you cannot be a member and a dependent of the same plan with the exception of Life insurance and AD&D. Employees may enroll an eligible dependent that is also covered as an employee or dependent under another MPC Life or AD&D policy.
  • Changes must be due to and consistent with the change in access to coverage.
