Which Medical Plan is Right?
Our medical carrier is Aetna. Aetna’s Medical Hotline number is 1-855-223-8791
NBOE does not participate with the School Employees’ Health Benefits Program administered by the State of NJ.
If you were hired after July 1, 2020 you can only enroll in the NBOE NJ Educators Plan (NJEP), or NBOE Garden State Health Plan (GSHP), which includes prescription coverage, Freedom of Choice Dental, and/or Vision Plan.
If you were hired before July 1, 2020, you have the option to enroll into the Legacy medical plans, and the standalone prescription coverage, and the NJEP or GSHP plan. Also, you will have access to enroll into the Freedom of Choice Dental, and/or Vision Plan.
Note: since NBOE Garden State Health Plan has a limited network, please review the information below before considering the plan.

Garden State Health Plan
Your benefits choices can have a big impact on your health care experiences and expenses, so it is important that you consider your options carefully and find the benefits that are right for you and your family. Here are a few highlights of the Garden State Health Plan with Aetna and Express Scripts:
- The GSHP offers the same level of benefit for both in and out of network services as the NJ Educators Plan (NJEP)
- The co-pays mirror the rates for the NJEP
- The GSHP plan design follows the NJEP for both Medical and Prescription Drug benefits
- The GSHP uses the Aetna Whole Health℠ — New Jersey network of providers.
- The GSHP offers a significantly smaller network in comparison to the other plans offered in the District
- This includes only 35% of Hospitals and 60% of the Physicians in the Open Choice network
- There is no coverage for out of state providers in the GSHP, except for a true emergency.
- This includes facilities such as Memorial Sloan Kettering in NYC and CHOP in Philadelphia, which would now be considered out of network
