2021 Open Enrollment now open

Open Enrollment 2021 is now open! This is the one time each year when you can elect to change your medical and/or dental plans, add or waive eligible dependents from your coverage, and enroll/re-enroll in the Flexible Spending Account (FSA) and/or Dependent Care Assistance Program (DCAP). Some employees will also need to attest/re-attest to the Spousal Surcharge during Open Enrollment as well.

Changes will become effective January 1, 2021. If you do not wish to make changes to your coverage, do not need to attest to the spousal surcharge, or do not plan to enroll in an FSA or DCAP in 2021, no action is needed on your part.

Visit the HRS Open Enrollment website for more information, including links to make changes online or by paper form, information on the virtual Benefits Fairs being held online throughout the month, plan comparison links, and several other info sources and tools to help you make informed decisions.

Contact HRS Benefit Services at (509) 335-4521 or hrs.benefits@wsu.edu with questions.
