How to Cancel People First
To cancel a product or service managed through People First, which is the Benefits Administrator for the State of Florida, you need to follow these steps:
Logging In and Navigating
- Log in to your People First account through the official website.
- Navigate to the section where you manage your benefits or subscriptions.
Identifying the Product
- Identify the specific product or benefit you wish to cancel. This could include health insurance, life insurance, or other benefits.
Initiating Cancellation
- Select the product you want to cancel. If you have multiple products, each will need to be canceled individually.
- Look for an option to manage or cancel the selected product.
Confirming Cancellation
- Follow the on-screen instructions to confirm your cancellation. You may be prompted to provide reasons for the cancellation, although this is typically voluntary.
Special Considerations
- If you are canceling health insurance, ensure you understand the implications and any potential gaps in coverage. You may need to enroll in a new plan during the annual Open Enrollment Period or through a Special Enrollment Period (SEP) if you experience a qualifying life event.
COBRA and Other Benefits
- If you are eligible for COBRA (Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act) benefits, you will receive an application for COBRA benefits within 30 days of your termination. You have 60 days from receipt of the application to elect continuation of coverage. For other supplemental plans, you may need to contact the insurance company directly to continue coverage.
Final Steps
- After canceling, ensure you receive a confirmation of the cancellation. This could be via email or a confirmation number provided by the customer service representative.
- Check your bank statements to ensure no further payments are deducted for the canceled product.
Additional Help
- If you encounter any issues or have further questions, contact the People First Service Center at 1-866-663-4735 or reach out to your servicing HR or benefits administrator for assistance.
