If you do nothing during AE, all your current benefits will roll over to 2022 with the exception of your elections for contributions to your Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flexible Spending Account (FSA). These benefits will default to a $0 contribution election, however, you will continue to receive the Stericycle contribution to your HSA. Remember you can change your HSA contributions at any time during the plan year.

If I don’t enroll during AE, will my current benefits roll

over to 2022?

You have a few options for completing your enrollment – utilize the YBR website (www.ybr.com/stericycle), use the Alight Mobile app on your smart device or call YBR and speak to a representative (855-381-8326).

How do I complete my enrollment?

If you need assistance with completing your enrollment or if you have a question about your benefits, you can utilize the chat feature on the YBR website or Alight Mobile app or you can call YBR (855-381-8326).

Who do I contact if I need assistance?

Although you may not have utilized your healthcare plans very much in the past two years, the premiums are based on total costs associated with all plan member claims. These claims, plus healthcare cost inflation, which is expected to be over 7% in 2022, are factors that impact the healthcare premiums each year. For 2022, Stericycle is absorbing a majority of the 7% inflation and Team Member premiums are increasing by only 2% ($1 - $12 per month depending on plan choices).

Why do healthcare premiums continue to increase when I’ve rarely used my plans over the

past two years?

Frequently Asked Questions

29

As a new hire, you will need to complete two enrollments – New Hire enrollment for your benefits for the remainder of 2021 and Annual Enrollment for your 2022 benefits. You will not be able to complete your Annual Enrollment until after you complete your New Hire enrollment. Once you complete your New Hire enrollment, your Annual Enrollment for 2022 benefits will open.

I’m a new hire and haven’t enrolled in my benefits yet.

Do I need to complete an Annual Enrollment?

If you have a qualified status change and need to make changes to your benefits (e.g. add a new dependent, drop a dependent, add or change coverages), you should contact YBR to process that change within 31 days of the date of your change. The updates to your benefits will be effective on the date of your qualified status change. If you only make updates during Annual Enrollment, your updates will be effective January 1, 2022.

I had a qualified status change (e.g. birth, marriage,

divorce). Should I make changes during Annual

Enrollment for this change?

You should complete your Stericycle Annual Enrollment during the enrollment period. After reviewing and completing your spouse’s Annual Enrollment, if you need to make a change to your Stericycle benefits, you should contact YBR for assistance by 12/31.

My spouse’s employer’s Annual Enrollment is later

than Stericycle’s. What should I do?

Frequently Asked Questions

Visit the Benefits website at https://www.stericycle.com/en-us/benefits. On this site you can view the For Your Benefits guide as well as learn about the changes for 2022. You can also view the benefits video and register for AE webinars.

Be sure that your home address is correct in SuccessFactors and update accordingly if necessary.

I didn’t receive an Annual Enrollment packet in the

mail. Where do I get information regarding

Annual Enrollment?

No, your child is eligible to be covered until their 26th birthday. Their coverage will automatically end at the end of the month in which they turn 26. They will be offered an opportunity to continue their coverage via COBRA and information will be mailed to your home regarding COBRA. This process is automatic, and no action is needed on your part. Contact YBR if you have any questions.

My child is turning 26 in 2022. Do I need to drop

them from coverage during Annual Enrollment?

ID cards are only issued for medical and prescription coverage (you will receive a separate ID card for prescription drug coverage when you enroll in medical). The dental and vision plans do not issue ID cards. If you are currently enrolled in a medical plan in 2021 and are continuing your coverage into 2022, a new ID card will not be issued to you. If you are newly enrolling in medical coverage for 2022, you will receive your ID cards in late December.

Will I receive new ID cards in the mail for

medical/dental/vision?
