Enrollment
Open Enrollment, which usually takes place in November, is a time during which employees and retirees can make changes to their benefit plans.
Usually, during Open Enrollment you can:
- change to a different medical Plan
- change to a different dental plan (California residents only)
- opt out of medical, dental, and/or vision coverage or cancel a previous opt-out request
- enroll eligible family members in your health plans
- cancel coverage for a currently enrolled family member
- enroll or re-enroll in DepCare or change or cancel your salary reduction amount (employees only)
- enroll or re-enroll in the Health Care Reimbursement Account (employees only)
- cancel your TIP participation—or re-enroll if you previously canceled (employees only)
Keep in mind that the actions that are available during Open Enrollment vary from year to year.
UC HR/Benefits provides detailed information about Open Enrollment on this website each fall, and mails information to both employees and retirees. Your local Benefits Office can also provide you with information about Open Enrollment.
