It’s time for the employees of Rutland Regional Medical Center to put their paperwork where their hearts are.

The hospital, in Rutland, Vt., is in the midst of a dependent eligibility audit, designed to ensure every employee family member who receives health coverage from RRMC is actually eligible it.

Every employee, from CEO to chief surgeon to janitor, must show copies of their marriage certificates, children’s birth certificates, and the first page of their most recent tax returns, with numerical amounts blacked out, to demonstrate they’re married and legally the parents of any children they claim as dependents on the hospital’s health plan.
