In addition, here are some reminders:
Elections made during Open Enrollment will be effective Jan. 1, 2025, to Dec. 31, 2025.
Spending Accounts: You must re-enroll annually. This includes the Health Care FSA, Dependent Care FSA and the Health Savings Account. Funds will not be contributed into a spending account for 2025 if no election during Open Enrollment is submitted.
Waiving Medical Coverage: If you waived your medical coverage in 2024 and want to continue to waive in 2025, you are required to participate in Open Enrollment. If you do not make an election in PeopleSoft Employee Self Service to waive coverage for 2025, your medical election will automatically be defaulted to the Kaiser HMO employee only plan. Excess Flex Credits, if any, will be deposited into a Health Reimbursement Account.
Prepare Your Dependent Documents Now. If you plan to add a new dependent to any of your benefit plans, you will need to provide proof of relationship documents (such as a marriage certificate for a spouse and birth certificates for children) by securely uploading them into PeopleSoft Employee Self Service.
If you are a temporary employee, find Open Enrollment options and instructions here.
