An internal system change at Delta Dental resulted in a data submission gap in which updated records were not received when an enrollment segment closed. 

Replacement data has been received and applied to years 2015 forward, correcting disenrollment dates (ME163A) to close segments appropriately.

NOTE:  Some disenrollment dates for years 2013 and 2014 are still open. A methodology has been identified to close them and this processing will occur in the next build.
