Highlights and Instructions

Open Enrollment Overview

Benefits Open Enrollment is a once-a-year opportunity for benefit-eligible employees to reflect on their current benefit elections and make any necessary changes for the upcoming year. HR will continue with active enrollment, which requires all benefit-eligible employees to elect to continue, waive, terminate, or enroll in coverage through WINGS Express. Changes made during open enrollment take effect on January 1 of the following year.

During open enrollment, you can: 

  • Continue, waive, enroll, terminate, or change medical, dental, and/or vision coverage
  • Add or remove dependents from coverage
  • Participate in a Healthcare Flexible Spending Account
  • Participate in a Dependent Day Care Flexible Spending Account
  • Contribute to a Health Savings Account
  • Change your Short-Term Disability and/or Supplemental Life Insurance coverage

Outside of the Open Enrollment period, you can make changes within 31 days of experiencing a qualifying life event, such as birth, marriage, divorce, death, loss in other healthcare coverage, etc. For details on current-year benefits for healthcare, dental, vision, and more, visit the Benefits webpage.
