OCEA Guidance for County/Court EME Program Participants During Open Enrollment
September 25, 2020
A valuable benefit offered to married or domestically partnered County employees (fulltime, regular or limited term) the opportunity to enroll in a County-sponsored health plan as Employee Married to Employee (EME). Under the EME Program, the County will pay more toward the cost of health plan rates for yourself, your spouse or domestic partner, and all eligible dependent children when enrolled as EME instead of enrolling separately. The County will pay 100% of the premium if the Subscriber (the primary insured person) is eligible for the OC Healthy Steps program and completes the program, or the Subscriber is exempt from the program, and 95% of the premium if the Subscriber chooses not to participate in the program.
