Looking for help with a renewal? The process to renew your clients who already have private CT PFML coverage with ShelterPoint* is a little different. Reach out to your Sales Representative, and they can help guide you through the renewal process.

 

September:

There are only about 45 business days left to work with your Connecticut clients on their 1/1/2023 PFML needs!  But don’t worry, we’ve laid out all the steps on How to Apply For a Private in CT here for you.

  • You may want to front-load your time on conversations with as many of your clients as possible in early September, engaging with them on their financial and business objectives for 2023.
  • Your clients may need more competitive pricing, or perhaps they are more concerned with their day-to-day workload. In that case, the expedient claims processing available through ShelterPoint’s private plan may be the solution.
      • Our claims turnaround times exceed Connecticut requirements, providing smooth benefit payments when employees need them most.
  • Target to get your ShelterPoint CT PFML quote requests in now through October 1.

 

**PFML Expert Tip**

Don’t wait for the 2023 rate announcement – if needed, we can review the quote – it’s best to get the process underway sooner rather than later!
 

 

October - early November:

Plan for the Employee Vote before early November

  • A 1-question vote is required by Connecticut. When you quote a case with us, we provide a helpful kit with voting instructions and an employee brochure that helps your clients accomplish this easily.
  • A transition to ShelterPoint from another private carrier is considered a material change to a CT PFML private plan and requires a new employee vote and exemption application.

It’s important to remember your clients need to notify their CT employees 2 weeks before the actual vote – so this must be worked into their timeline.
 

Early-Mid November Deadline:

Your clients must get their exemption applications into www.ctpaidleave.org.

  • Get details here on what’s needed when they apply.
    • The deadline to get applications in and approved by the CT Paid Leave Authority is December 1st
    • Be sure to submit applications by mid-November at the latest to give the CT Paid Leave Authority time to review the exemption application.
