Open Enrollment
Open Enrollment for 2027 benefits is November 9–20, 2026.
This is your annual opportunity to enroll in or make changes to these benefits:
- Medical, dental, and vision insurance
- Flexible spending accounts (FSAs)
- Supplemental life insurance
- Supplemental accidental death and dismemberment (AD&D) insurance
If you don’t do anything during Open Enrollment, your current benefits will continue in 2027 except FSAs – if you want an FSA in 2027, you must actively enroll in one during Open Enrollment.
