What is Open Enrollment?

Open enrollment is your annual opportunity to add, change, or remove benefits enrollment elections for the next plan year. Elections made during open enrollment are effective on January 1st, 2023. Outside the annual open enrollment period, you may only make changes to your benefits elections within 60 days of a qualifying status change event, such as marriage, birth/adoption of a child, dependent eligibility changes, divorce, death, loss of spousal coverage, retirement, or other.

When is Open Enrollment?

The open enrollment period for 2023 benefits is Monday, November 7, 2022 – Friday, November 18, 2022.
