It's Your Choice Enrollment Perod
The It's Your Choice enrollment period is set for October 7 - November 1, 2013. This is your opportunity to make changes to your health insurance plan, as well as any other benefits that are offered (note: not all benefits allow changes at this time). Be watching for emails from the campus benefits department - those emails will outline the changes for 2014.
If you use the Employee Reimbursement Account, make sure you complete a form for 2014 if you wish to continue the benefit. It does NOT carryover each year, you must do a new enrollment form.
