Action required

Verify your spouse's eligibility.

Only spouses without access to other coverage — an employer plan, retiree coverage, or Medicare/Medicaid — are eligible for the Tallmadge medical plan. If you cover a spouse, you must complete verification within 30 days of your hire date, or their coverage will end. Tallmadge's advisor, Paragon, administers the process securely.

  • Marriage certificate
  • Proof of joint financial responsibility
  • Page 1 of your most recent 1040 tax form

Questions People Ask Most

When can I enroll or make changes?

During annual Open Enrollment, within your new-hire window, or within 30 days of a qualifying life event — marriage, birth or adoption, or gaining/losing other coverage. Submit changes and documentation in Benefitsolver within 30 days, or you'll wait until the next Open Enrollment.

How do I add a dependent?

Log in to benefitsolver.com (company key Tallmadge City Schools), choose Life Events > Update, and upload supporting documentation within 30 days of the event. Have dependents' dates of birth and SSNs handy.

Where is my ID card?

Digital cards live in the MedMutual app for medical/dental and the TrueRx+ app for pharmacy. Download either from the App Store or Google Play and log in or create an account.

Is Teladoc really free?

Yes — $0 per visit, 24/7/365, for every ESCWR employee and household member, even if you're not on the medical plan. Register at TeladocHealth.com or call 1-800-835-2362, then request a visit by phone or video.

Who should I contact with a benefit question?

Use the Benefits & Contacts section above for carrier questions, or contact Tallmadge City Schools for eligibility and enrollment questions.

What's the opt-out incentive?

If you have other coverage, you can waive ESC medical and earn a yearly bonus — $900 as a single employee, or $2,500 if you cover eligible dependent children. Contact HR at (440) 350-2563 for requirements and to enroll.
