Reminder: 2020 Open Enrollment begins tomorrow

The Open Enrollment period for 2020 begins Nov. 1 and will run through Nov. 30. This is the one time each year when you can elect to:

Change your medical and/or dental plans
Add eligible dependents to your coverage
Waive dependents from your coverage
Enroll/re-enroll in the Flexible Spending Account (FSA) and/or Dependent Care Assistance Program (DCAP) for the coming plan year
Attest/re-attest to the spousal surcharge questionnaire

Changes will become effective Jan. 1, 2020. If you do not wish to make changes to your coverage, do not plan to use FSA/DCAP in 2020, and are not subject to the spousal surcharge attestation, no action is needed on your part.
