The open enrollment period for any changes to health, dental, flexcash, certain voluntary benefits and enrollment/re-enrollment in the dependent care and healthcare reimbursement account plans runs from Monday, September 11th through Friday, October 6th.  This is also the time you may add or delete eligible dependents.  Changes made during the enrollment period become effective January 1, 2018.  Due to CalPERS and other state restrictions, open enrollment requests received after 5:00 pm on October 6th will NOT be accepted.

New this year – we will hold two Open Enrollment Informational Sessions.  Please join us in the BAAC Conference Room on Friday, September 22nd from 9:00 am to 11:00 am, or Tuesday, September 26th from 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm.  Benefits Department staff will provide an overview of our benefits programs, highlight changes occurring this Open Enrollment period, and assist with completing benefits forms and answering questions. 

The Annual Open Enrollment Benefits Fair will take place on Tuesday, September 19 from 12 p.m. to 2 p.m. on the third floor patio of Brotman Hall. Please come to meet representatives from our benefits vendors and to learn more about your benefits.
