Adding Dependents to Your Medical Plan?

If you wish to add dependents to your health plan at this time, ADP will contact you by mail and email to request appropriate verification documents. This communication from ADP will include a personalized fax cover sheet with a bar code that must be used when submitting documentation.

Appropriate documentation must be attached to the fax cover page. If you do not receive the request, contact SHBP at (800) 610-1863 to have the request sent to you. Your dependents will not be covered until the documentation is approved.

Summary of Benefits and Coverage (SBC) for Plan Options

SHBP provides a Summary of Benefits and Coverage (SBC) for the following Plan Options: Health Maintenance Organization (HMO), Health Reimbursement Arrangement (HRA) and High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP).  SBCs include standard information that help you to understand, evaluate and compare the Plan Options as you make decisions about which Plan Option to choose.

The SBCs are available online at www.shbp.georgia.gov and you may request a paper copy of the SBCs free of charge by calling SHBP Member Services at (800) 610-1863.

Important Plan Reminders

All members must provide SHBP with their Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) for themselves and their enrolled dependents upon enrolling in SHBP coverage. The most common type of TIN is a Social Security Number (SSN), but for individuals who are not eligible for a SSN, members may submit an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) or Adoption Taxpayer Identification Number (ATIN). Failure to submit a TIN will result in a loss of coverage and no refund will be issued.

The requirement to provide a SSN or other TIN is a separate process from Dependent Verification. Dependents whose coverage is terminated due to providing an invalid SSN or no SSN are not eligible for coverage even if they passed the Dependent Verification process as they have failed to provide a valid SSN to SHBP.

Members should provide their dependent’s SSN by entering it directly into the SHBP Enrollment Portal at https://myshbpga.adp.com/shbp/ or by calling SHBP Member Services at (800) 610-1863.

How to Reset Your Password

Step 1: Go to www.myshbpga.adp.com and click "Need help signing in?".

Step 2: Enter the requested demographic information. 

Step 3: Follow the instructions to answer a series of security questions*.

Step 4: Create a new password and click "Continue."

* Note: If you do not know the answers to the security questions, contact SHBP Member Services at (800) 610-1863 for assistance.  You will have three tries in total to answer the security questions before your account is locked and you must begin the process again.
