<Title>USM MetLife enrollment changes - April 1, 2024</Title>
<Tagline>USM MetLife coverages are now evergreen!</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <strong>DEPARTMENT PAYROLL PREPARERS &amp; APPROVERS: please share this information with your department employees. </strong><div><br></div>
    <div>Good news! Employees no longer need to wait until the annual enrollment period to enroll in or make changes to their <strong>USM MetLife</strong> benefits. (USM = University System of Maryland)<div><br></div>
    <div>Starting Monday, April 1, 2024, if you are a Regular or Contingent II (C2) employee, you can enroll in the USM-sponsored MetLife Term Life insurance &amp; Long-Term Disability benefits, make changes, or cancel your benefits anytime during the year. </div>
    <div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>Already enrolled and not interested in making changes? Your current coverage will continue seamlessly; no action is required.</div>
    </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>If you are outside of your initial 60 days of USM employment and want to enroll in USM MetLife coverages, you will need to provide <strong>evidence of insurability</strong> (medical underwriting) to be approved for USM MetLife coverages. To complete your application, look for the "Start Your Statement of Health" button during enrollment.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>MetLife will review your application and notify you of their decision and the effective date of your coverage.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>
    <strong>Please note:</strong> USM MetLife coverages are <em>not </em>available in the SPS Workday system. Workday is the State's online system that administers <strong>State </strong>health benefits only. USM MetLife coverages can be found in the USM MetLife portal here: metlife.com/USMD.  </div>
    <div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>Enroll or review your USM MetLife benefits today at metlife.com/USMD. </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>Attached is a flyer with more information. </div>

    <div><span><strong><u>CYBER MOVIE NIGHT</u></strong></span></div>
    <div><span><br></span></div>
    <div><span>With the halfway point of the semester being passed, the board wanted to offer everyone a meeting where they could relax, enjoy a movie, and get some <strong>free food and drinks!</strong></span></div>
    <div><span><br></span></div>
    <div><span>That’s right—tonight is a <strong>Cyber Movie Night! </strong>We will be showing WarGames. <strong>The movie will be in Commons 331</strong>, so please do <em>NOT</em> go to ITE 231. We will <strong>start the movie at 7:10 PM</strong>, so make sure you arrive early (anytime after 6:45 PM) to grab a seat and food. No Webex tonight, for legal reasons.</span></div>
    <div><span><strong><u><br></u></strong></span></div>
    <div><span><strong><u>Free Food and Drinks?</u></strong></span></div>

    <div><span><strong><u>WarGames (1983)</u></strong></span></div>
