What Is Open Enrollment?

Each fall during Open Enrollment, you are free to make changes to your health care and life insurance benefits for the following calendar year. This is the only opportunity you have to make changes unless you experience a qualifying life event (see the Life Event section for more information). Use this opportunity to review what's new for 2010, make changes, or re-enroll in a Flexible Spending Account.
