Substitute Benefits
Health Insurance Coverage for Substitutes/Hourly Employees
Granbury ISD will offer health insurance to substitute and hourly employees who have a reasonable expectation of working a minimum of 10 hours per week. Because subs and hourly employees are not members of the Teacher Retirement System (TRS), the district does not contribute to the cost of the employee’s health insurance. Subs and hourly employees who elect Granbury ISD health coverage must pay 100 percent of their insurance premiums in advance each month.
ALL subs and hourly employees must either enroll in a Granbury ISD health plan or decline the coverage. This is done within 31 days of your hire date for your NEW HIRE ENROLLMENT opportunity and/or each August during the BENEFITS ANNUAL ENROLLMENT opportunity. If you are not enrolling in the Granbury ISD health insurance, you must decline it each plan year! To enroll in the GISD health insurance, you must complete paperwork in the Benefits Office within your enrollment opportunity. The Benefits Office is located in the Administration Building at 217 N. Jones St. Granbury, TX 76048
Substitute and hourly enrollees in the health plan will not receive a monthly bill, invoice or payment reminder. Upon enrollment, health insurance rates will be determined by the plan you select. Payment receipts will be furnished upon request.
Payment of Premiums for Part-Time Employees and Substitutes
Health insurance premiums must be paid in advance for the upcoming month's coverage. Premium payments are due or postmarked to the Benefits Office by the 30th day of each month. If the 30th falls on a weekend or holiday, payment is due on the last working day of the month. You are responsible for paying for coverage that you are enrolled in. Payments may be made by check or money order (payable to Granbury ISD).
FYI – Non payment of premiums will not automatically cancel your insurance. You MUST come into the Benefits Office to cancel your policy. You ARE responsible for premiums due in the same month of cancellation.
