School board members are eligible to enroll in SEBB health plan coverage on a self-pay basis as long as they hold a position as a school board member and meet the eligibility requirements as described in chapter RCW 41.05.0743 and WAC 182-30-5010.
School board members may participate in SEBB health plan coverage during their elected term as a school board member as long as premiums and applicable premium surcharges continue to be paid as described in WAC 182-30-040. They may renew their participation at the start of each subsequent term as a school board member. If they are reelected for a new term consecutive from their previous term, they will not be required to make new elections. School board members’ dependents must meet the eligibility requirements in WAC 182-31-140.
School board members are not eligible for Public Employees Benefits Board (PEBB) retiree insurance coverage.
School board members who enroll must enroll in medical, dental, and vision coverage. School board members can select any SEBB medical plan available in their county of residence or the county the school district or ESD they represent is located.
Costs
Below are the premiums for medical, dental, and vision coverage. School board members may also pay a $25-per-account premium surcharge and a $50 premium surcharge in addition to the monthly medical premium, if they apply. For more details, visit Surcharges.

How to enroll
A school board member may enroll by submitting the School Board Member Election/Change form and any supporting documents to the SEBB Program. The SEBB Program must receive the required form no later than 60 days after elected term begins for a newly elected school board member.
Premiums and premium surcharges
Premiums and applicable premium surcharges must be made directly to HCA. The first premium payment and applicable premium surcharges are due to HCA no later than 45 days after the 60-day election period ends for a newly elected or appointed school board member as described above.
When coverage begins
SEBB health plan coverage for a newly elected or appointed school board member and their eligible dependents, will begin the first day of the month following the day the SEBB Program receives the required form.
When coverage ends
School board members’ enrollment will end at the end of the month in which their elected term ends, unless the school board member is terminated due to no longer paying the premium and applicable premium surcharges described in WAC 182-30-040(1)(c) or a request for voluntary termination is submitted in writing. If a request to voluntarily terminate enrollment is received, then SEBB health plan coverage will end on the last day of the month in which the termination request is received or on the last day of the month specified in the termination request, whichever is later. If the termination request is received on the first day of the month, SEBB health plan coverage will end on the last day of the previous month.
School board members who voluntarily terminate their coverage prior to the end of their elected term or who are terminated for non-payment are no longer eligible for this coverage for the remainder of their elected term.
