About the Audit

The purpose of the audit is to ensure we are providing coverage for eligible dependents. When ineligible dependents are covered under our plans, our health care costs go up. This impacts how much we all pay in weekly paycheck deductions to have health care coverage.

To confirm that your dependents are eligible for Albertsons Companies benefits coverage, you will need to resubmit proof of eligibility for each dependent you cover, even if you have provided documentation for them in the past. The only exception is disabled dependent children over the age of 26.

WTW will provide information and instructions mailed to your home on where to submit documentation. You will have the option of submitting your dependent verification documents online via a secure website, by mail, or by fax.

WTW will be verifying dependent documentation submitted for the audit, so all documentation must be submitted to WTW via secure website, mail, or fax. Documentation uploaded to myACI will NOT be considered in the audit and your dependents will be at risk of losing health coverage.

If you have questions about the Dependent Eligibility Audit, you can call the WTW Dependent Verification Center between August 21 and September 22 from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. MT, M-F at 1-855-451-3113.
