What is the Open Enrollment Period?

The Open Enrollment period is a period of time, determined by your employer, during which you are allowed to make any changes to your current benefits.

What is a new employee and when do benefits become effective for employees hired on or after January 1st, 2021?

A new employee is defined as an employee without active benefits. If you are a Part-time employee with a pay code of B, E, F, or L, you are eligible to participate.

You may enroll in the Cigna SureFit, OAP Standard or OAP High healthcare plan and/or Flexible Benefits for you and/or your eligible dependents. Benefits will be effective the first of the following month. The cost of these benefits will NOT be deducted from your paycheck.
