November is the annual Open Enrollment period when benefit eligible faculty and staff can enroll in plans or make changes to their current medical and dental elections, as well as enroll/re-enroll in the tax-savings Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) or the Dependent Care Assistant Program (DCAP). Many of these changes can be made through the Health Care Authority’s My Account portal. You can also view your coverage information, download your statement of insurance, and make changes to your tobacco use surcharge attestation year-round through this portal.

Changes you can make through My Account during the Open Enrollment period include:

·         Changing or waiving medical coverage

·         Changing dental coverage

·         Waiving dependent coverage or reactivating coverage on previously waived individuals

·         Attesting to the required spousal premium surcharge

Enrollment or re-enrollment for the Flexible Spending Arrangement (FSA) and the Dependent Care Assistance Program (DCAP) for 2019 can also be done online at http://pebb.naviabenefits.com/ starting November 1.
