All the plan news that impacts you as an ASEBP member.
Every year, ASEBP reviews and optimizes the benefit plans to better support covered members and employers. This year, we are giving you a heads up of the benefit plan changes (that will take effect January 1, 2024) to help you with plans that relate to your benefits.
Changes for 2024
Our Employee & Family Assistance Program provider, Inkblot, is undergoing a brand transformation, which has changed how they look and how they refer to the programs and services they offer.
As part of the GreenShield suite of health and wellness programs, Inkblot has changed its name to “Inkblot by GreenShield” and has a new logo to match.
Earlier this year, the ASEBP Trustees approved premium rate changes for 2023-24 for both the group plan and the MyRetiree Plan. While individual premium notifications will be sent to covered members responsible for paying their own premiums in mid-August, we wanted to provide notice of this change to all members.
The new rates will take effect on September 1, 2023, and will be in place until at least August 31, 2024.
On September 1, 2023, premium rates for MyRetiree Plan Extended Health Care (EHC) and some Dental plans will be changing, which will be reflected in your monthly premium withdrawals starting September 15, 2023.

Earlier this year, we undertook a comprehensive review of our Employee and Family Assistance Program (EFAP) to ensure the program and services offered by our current provider continued to meet the evolving needs of covered members, the employers we serve, and ASEBP. As part of this review, several EFAP providers submitted proposals for us to consider. After a thorough shortlisting of potential providers, presentations, and meetings, we’ve decided to make a change.
We’re constantly striving to provide our covered members with a plan that benefits them today and is there for them tomorrow. To align our benefits with ever-evolving health care practices and ensure the financial stability of our plans, we review our benefit offerings frequently. As a result of our latest review, effective January 1, 2021, the benefit changes taking place will enhance the programs, services and benefits we provide, in addition to helping covered members better support themselves and their families.
