It depends on the policy, if your coworkers signed up during open enrollment vs after and having to prove insurability, or sometimes they might have to meet pre-existing conditions clauses. I work with someone who has MS and since she signed up during open enrollment there were no problems. If she missed open enrollment she would have had to have a pre-existing clause on the policy which means only coverage related to her MS would not have been covered for a year.
