If you leave the county for 30 days or less and are rehired, your previous benefit coverage may be reinstated and you won't have to re-enroll. Your human resources representative will need to formally ask Benefits and Retirement Operations to reinstate your benefits.

If you leave the county for more than 30 days and are rehired, you must re-enroll in benefits as a new employee. (For more information, see "Enrolling When First Eligible" in "Participating in the Health Care Plans" in Health Care.)
