Open Enrollment for Benefits 2016
October 27—November 9
This is the once-a-year period of time when you can apply for new health insurance or make additions/deletions to your current insurance policies. It is also an opportunity to enroll in any voluntary products offered to you. It is crucial that each employee re-elects each year, even if you are declining, as we need to capture each and every election to meet ACA requirements.
