Welcome to 2027 Open Enrollment!
Open Enrollment is now live! From October 28 to November 12, 2026, you’ll have the opportunity to review your benefits, explore new updates, and make any necessary changes for the 2027 plan year.
All changes will go into effect on January 1, 2027.
This is the one time each year when you can make changes or elect voluntary benefits without a qualifying life event, such as marriage or the birth of a child.
