Annual Enrollment (AE) is the one-month period (July 1 - July 31) during which you may change your benefits elections and add or remove dependents from coverage using My UT Benefits.
The elections you make will become effective on the later of September 1, 2010, or upon approval of Evidence of Insurability if required.
IMPORTANT REMINDERS
- If you take no action, your current coverages (except UT FLEX) will continue for the new plan year.
- UT FLEX: You MUST re-enroll during AE to continue participation during the new plan year. The Debit Card must also be re-elected with an annual fee of $9. In addition, a new $12 annual administrative fee for each flexible spending account will be deducted from the first month’s flex contribution. Remember to use any remaining current plan year flexible spending account balances during the Grace Period (through November 15, 2010).
- Some coverage changes or new enrollments require the completion of an Evidence of Insurability application which MUST be submitted by August 15th.
- You can now quickly view or change your beneficiary designations for your life and AD&D insurance with the NEW Online Beneficiary Management tool through My UT Benefits.
- Don't forget to take the HealthQuotient (HQ) to check in on your current health status. Even if you completed the HQ in the past, it's that time to do it again!
