PEBB Eligible Employees – 2015 Open Enrollment

The Annual Open Enrollment period for 2015 begins November 1st and will run through November 30th. This is the one time each year when you are able to change your medical and/or dental plans, add eligible dependents to your coverage, or waive dependents from your coverage. This is also the time to enroll/re-enroll in the Flexible Spending Account (FSA) and/or Dependent Care Assistance Program (DCAP) if you wish to have this coverage in 2015. Enrollment changes become effective January 1, 2015.

If you do not want to make a change in Medical/Dental plans, you don’t need to do anything, and your current plan will continue. If you wish to continue your FSA or DCAP, you will need to re-enroll.

Also, if you carry a spouse or registered domestic partner on your plan, you must attest/re-attest to the spousal surcharge questions to determine if the surcharge will be applicable to you in 2015. If you do not attest during Open Enrollment, you will see the spousal surcharges on your paycheck starting in January.

2015 plan year changes include: premium changes and some changes to coverage. For more information regarding these changes, visit the HRS website at https://hrs.wsu.edu/OpenEnrollment2015.
