Your Contributions / Pay Deductions

The Franklin Covey pay cycle is biweekly (26 pay periods per year) for your medical, dental, vision, life, voluntary benefits and flexible spending contributions. 401(k) and ESPP contributions are deducted each time you are paid.

Pre-Tax Contributions

Your contributions for medical, dental, vision, health savings account, flexible spending account and 401(k) are deducted from your paycheck before taxes. As a result, you pay less in taxes, so your take-home pay is higher than if you were to pay for the same benefits after taxes.

After-Tax Contributions

Insurance coverages like Supplemental Term Life, Accident, Critical Illness, Hospital Indemnity, Legal Plan, Pet Insurance and any contributions to a Roth 401(k) and an After-Tax 401(k) are taken on an after-tax basis.

Contributions for a Domestic Partner

If you cover a domestic partner, the cost paid by Franklin Covey for medical, dental and vision coverage for that partner is taxable as imputed income for both federal and state taxes (unless you reside in a state that recognizes domestic partnerships, and you and your domestic partner are registered under state law). Additionally, some of the cost you pay is applied on an after-tax basis.

For more details on taxations, consult a licensed professional.

COBRA Continuation Coverage

Overview

COBRA Continuation Coverage allows you and your family to keep your health care coverage if something happens that would normally make you lose it. This could include events like job loss or reduced work hours. The people who can keep their coverage include you, your spouse, and your dependent children. The coverage you keep will be the same as what other employees have. If you choose to continue your coverage, you will have the same rights as other people in the plan.

This means you can continue your current Medical, Dental, Vision and Flexible Spending Account coverage(s) you have as an active employee if you experienced some qualified loss of coverage (i.e. termination, reduced working hours, etc.).

How to Elect COBRA Coverage

To keep your coverage (known as COBRA), you need to fill out a COBRA Election Form that iSOLVED sends by the deadline listed on the form, if you qualify for COBRA coverage. If your spouse lives at a different address, they might get a separate notice, but only one of you needs to choose to keep coverage for both of you and any dependent children. You can also choose to keep coverage for just yourself, your spouse, or any of your children who want it, even if others in your family do not. For example, your spouse can keep their coverage even if you decide not to. You can choose to keep coverage for any number of your dependent children who qualify.

Cost of COBRA Continuation Coverage

If you choose to keep your COBRA coverage, you will need to pay the full cost of that coverage, plus a small administrative fee if applicable. 

Instead of choosing COBRA coverage, you might find other, cheaper health insurance options for you and your family. These options could be available through the Health Insurance Marketplace, Medicaid, or a spouse’s health plan during a “special enrollment period.” Some of these alternatives may cost less than COBRA.

It’s a good idea to compare these options with COBRA to see which one is best for you. Keep in mind that switching to a new plan might mean higher out-of-pocket costs.
