<p class="MsoNormal">OEBB will create new plan codes for each of the above Moda Health medical plans. OEBB staff understand that some entities use the MyOEBB plan codes in their payroll/benefit systems for deductions or reconciliation of invoices. Since this
is a practice for at least some entities, we wanted to let you know that OEBB staff will be updating MyOEBB with the new plans
<b>and</b> plan codes. OEBB will have these codes available for your educational entity via Excel spreadsheet by May 15<sup>th</sup>. Please contact our Benefits Inbox for a copy of the new codes at
<a href="mailto:oebb.benefits@state.or.us"><span style="color:windowtext">oebb.benefits@state.or.us</span></a> on or after May 15<sup>th</sup>. We hope this email gives you enough time to take any steps needed to transition the new codes in your systems for
the October 1, 2013, effective date.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Please let us know if you have any additional needs, concerns, or questions as we want to make this as smooth of a transition as possible.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">All other plan codes will remain the same, including the plan codes for all the Kaiser medical, dental and vision plans, Moda Health dental and vision plans, and all the plan codes for The Standard and Unum plans. <o:p></o:p></p>
