You are eligible to participate in the health plan if you are employed under a Stage Directors and Choreographers Society contract and sufficient employer contributions are made to the SDC-League Health Fund on your behalf.

To be eligible for benefits, employer contributions of at least $1,100 must accrue on your behalf during a six-month period as outlined below. In addition, your first rehearsal date(s) must fall within the corresponding six-month contribution period. Note that the start date of your eligibility will be based upon both an adequate contribution requirement and the start date of your rehearsal period(s), regardless of when the contributions due on your behalf are paid.

CONTRIBUTION PERIODS AND ELIGIBILITY PERIODS:

If $1,100 accrues for you
from January 1 through June 30

If $1,100 accrues for you
from July 1 through December 31

You have eligibility from
October 1 through March 31

You have eligibility from
April 1 through September 30

If $2,200 or more accrues on your behalf in a six-month contribution period, you will be entitled to a full year of paid benefits.

If contributions accrued on your behalf in a six-month contribution period exceed $1,100 but do not reach $2,200, you may apply the excess to the next period to help meet the minimum eligibility level.
