Final Reminder: Open Enrollment ends today, action required

Annual Open Enrollment began, Monday, Oct. 28, and ends today, Friday, Nov. 8, 2024. This is an active Open Enrollment, so even if you don't want to make any changes to your existing benefits, action is required.

• You must answer all applicable surcharge questions. Failure to do so will default you into the status of "yes," which will result in the $150 per month surcharge (max. of $600/month in surcharges).
• If you have a Flexible Spending Account, you must elect to re-enroll in your FSA for 2025. Your 2024 FSA election will not automatically renew for 2025. 
• It is highly recommended that you review your beneficiary information. Nobody wants to think about this, but you're already in the system - just take a few moments to make sure everything is accurate and up-to-date. You can consider doing this for:
  • TRS and/or ORP, 403(b), 457(b), Health Savings Account, Supplemental Life Insurance.
• Check out the 2025 USG Comparison Guide on the USG Benefits website to explore the details of all benefit offerings for 2025.
