How to Use Open Enrollment Online

Before you begin:

• If you've forgotten your password, select "Forgot Your Password" under the Sign In button. You can have a temporary password emailed to you or correctly answer 3 of your Challenge Questions for access.
• If you're enrolling in a medical plan that requires a Primary Care Physician (PCP), make sure you have your doctor's PCP number. You can find the number or search for a new PCP at Find a Doctor.

When you are ready to begin:

• Sign In.
• Enter your Username and Password to sign in.
• Select Open Enrollment under "Health & Welfare."
• Use the menu options on the left side of the screen to navigate through the Open Enrollment application. You need only select the plans you want to change.

To enroll or de-enroll a family member

You should add new family members before making changes to your plans. Select the Family Member button and fill in the Dependent Information Form at the top of the screen. Then click on the Add button.

To enroll or de-enroll current family members, you can choose either the specific plan menu option or the Family Member menu option. Select the appropriate box. A check mark indicates the family member is enrolled, and a blank box indicates the family member is not enrolled.

To enroll or make a plan change

Select the button for the plan you want to change. Then, enter the information necessary or select the appropriate box. When you have made all the changes for that plan, select the button for a different plan if you want to make other changes. If you have changed to a medical plan that requires you to select a Primary Care Physician (PCP), the PCP selection screen will appear automatically so that you can enter your PCP information.

When you've made all your changes

Select the Review and Confirm button menu option to see all the changes you've made. If you are satisfied with the changes, select Confirm. If you want to make additional changes, you can go back and do that before you confirm. If you haven't made any changes, it is not necessary to confirm. You may simply log off or return to the Main Menu.

Confirmation Statement

If you have an e-mail address on record with the University, your confirmation will automatically be e-mailed to you. Otherwise the confirmation will be sent through the mail to your home address of record.

Even if you have confirmed your changes, you can make additional changes until midnight, November 27.

If you have any problems enrolling online, contact your local Benefits Office.
