Open Enrollment is every year for retiree medical insurance from August 1 to August 30 and any changes you make go into effect October 1.

Open Enrollment for dental insurance is once every three years (the dental open enrollment is happening this year in 2024).

During Open Enrollment, you are selecting your benefits for October 1, 2024 through September 30, 2025. Any changes go into effect October 1, 2024.

 

IF YOU AREN'T MAKING ANY CHANGES TO YOUR HEALTH INSURANCE, THEN NO ACTION IS REQUIRED.

 

 

Open Enrollment 2024 is your once-a-year opportunity for retirees to review current benefit elections and make changes such as:

• Change medical plans
• Drop medical plan
• Add or drop dependents
• Enroll in dental insurance

 

After Open Enrollment ends, you cannot change your benefit elections until the next Open Enrollment, unless you have a ‘qualified status change’.
