Plan at a glance

Eligibility and enrollment  

You do not need to enroll — coverage begins for you and your eligible family members as soon as you meet the eligibility requirements regardless of enrollment in the ExxonMobil Medical Plan. See Eligibility and enrollment for more information.

How the Plan Works  

The Plan provides short-term counseling services, work-life support and services, legal and financial guidance, trainings, community referral services, online platform, resiliency coaching, digital Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and more. You will be provided up to eight (8) counseling sessions per issue per year and all counseling services are arranged by and provided through ComPsych, the Care Manager for this Plan. Resiliency coaching and access to online tools and resources, including digital CBT programs, do not count towards your eight session limit.  The benefits provided through the EAP are provided at no cost to you and your eligible family members

Administrative and ERISA information  

This Plan is subject to rules of the federal government, including the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA), not state insurance laws. You and your family members who lose eligibility may continue EAP coverage for a limited time in certain circumstances. The EAP is intended to qualify as an “excepted benefit” plan that is exempt from complying with the Affordable Care Act market reforms.  As an excepted benefit, the EAP does not provide significant benefits in the form of medical care. The EAP benefits are not coordinated with any other group health plan and benefits are independently administered by the Care Manager.  Participants are not required to pay premiums and no cost-sharing requirements are imposed.

See Administrative and ERISA information.
