Open Enrollment for 2024 Plan Year

October 20, 2023 through November 10, 2023

Open Enrollment is your annual opportunity to make changes to coverage options for yourself and your covered dependents. This includes:

  • Health

  • Dental

  • Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA)

  • Supplemental Insurance Plans-Aflac

 This is your once-a-year opportunity to enroll, make changes, or terminate insurance coverages previously selected.

  • Your current health and dental elections will automatically carry forward to 2024 if you do not make any changes to your existing coverages. This is a passive enrollment.

  • Current rate premiums will remain the same.

  • If you are currently enrolled in a Flexible Savings Account for medical or dependent care, you MUST enroll each year, even if you were just hired. FSA are calendar year plans. You will enroll using the PlanSource online enrollment system.
