eligible employee's newly adopted child receives PEBB-sponsored medical and
dental insurance coverage under the adopted child's own coverage from the date
of the adoption decree or date of placement for adoption through the first 31
days without completing PEBB forms. To continue coverage beyond the first 31
days of coverage the eligible employee must enroll the adopted child to their
benefit plans within 30 days from the date of the decree or placement by
submitting the correct enrollment update forms.
(a) The eligible employee must submit the
adoption agreement or placement agreement with the enrollment forms to the
agency. Placement for adoption requires the submission of an Affidavit of
Dependency with enrollment forms with legal documentation of the placement.
Upon adoption completion, a copy of the finalized adoption document must be
submitted to the employee's agency.
(b) Claims payment will not occur prior to
the adoption decree or placement for adoption date.

or newly adopted child beyond 30 days of the date of birth, adoption decree, or
placement for adoption is late enrollment as specified in OAR 101-020-0040.
