Open Enrollment

Dear Benefits-Eligible Employees,

Open enrollment for your 2010 benefits is currently underway. As you prepare to update your selections, please review these minor changes in policy:

Medical Plans. We continue to offer three tiers of coverage:

  • Core Plan. No longer covers physicians or airborne diseases. Harpoonborne diseases require a referral from your Primary Care not-Physician.
  • High Plan. No longer covers third-party lab tests. Instead, we ask employees to test themselves by urinating into designated peeceptacles. For blood work, you may pick up thumbtacks in the supply room.
  • Vista Ultimate Plan. Now covers small pox, large pox, neither-here-nor-there pox, swine pox, livestock pox, and the Hong Kong flu.  Not available in Hong Kong.

Vision Plan. We continue to offer one tier of coverage:

  • Squinting.

Dental Plan. Due to employee demand, often in the form of lawsuit, we're pleased to introduce ToothMed. This plan covers 100% of preventative maintenance (i.e., not eating), 0% of routine maintenance (cleaning, x-rays), and -15% of fillings, root canals, and all procedures necessitated by your personal failings.

We discourage cosmetic dentistry since, frankly, your teeth are the least of your problems.

Accidental Death and Dismemberment. Effective immediately, the Firm covers only death and dismemberment, not either-or. Limbless employees will be reimbursed upon proving they were not alive at the time of their delimbing.

For the record, noses and ears are cartilage, not limbs. (Nice try, Lauren.)

Intentional Death and Dismemberment. Go ahead, Lauren. We dare you.

Flexible Spending Account (FSA) has been renamed from the "Guess How Sick You're Going To Be Next Year" Account (GHSYGTBNYA). To assess your proximity to sickness, death, or those who wish you to become sick or dead, visit our Actuary Department on the fourth floor next to Visas & Deportation.

For a complete summary of your benefits, refer to the Employee Handbook available in the Human Resources office or, for employees hired after July 5, tattooed on your skull.

If you have any questions or concerns, please don't. With few exceptions, your health is very important to us.

Sincerely,

Human Resources
Doolittle & Associates, LLC, LP, Esq.
