I’m wondering if I’m able to transition as a full-time employee if I would be able to enroll immediately in health insurance or if I would have to wait for the open enrollment period.
Edit: I am not contracted through a temp agency. It’s a temporary position with the company.
Changing employment status is a qualifying event or whatever it’s called, so assuming the company offers its companies coverage without waiting, you shouldn’t have to wait for open enrollment. However, while health coverage is a common benefit of employment, it’s not universal and policies vary by employer. That is: ask the company, or if for some reason you don’t want to ask, get a copy of the employee handbook, maybe by asking one of your co-workers for it. The info for the particular company is likely to be in there.
