KEY THINGS TO REMEMBER
- Clicking on the Open Enrollment Banner in FlashLine will direct you to the 2025 Open Enrollment web pages, where you will find important information concerning your 2024 health care plans and more.
- Each time you access the 2025 Open Enrollment Portal, you must click “Save and Finish 2025 Open Enrollment” to ensure your most recent changes/updates are saved for the 2025 plan year.
- Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) require an election each calendar year. If you do not make an election, you will not have an FSA account for 2025. If you want to participate in a healthcare or dependent care FSA during calendar year 2025, you must access the Open Enrollment portal to make that election, even if you had an account in 2024.
- Health Savings Accounts (HSA) require an election each calendar year. If you elect the High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP) and want contributions to your HSA, you must access the Open Enrollment portal to complete your enrollment, even if you have an existing account in 2024. Remember, the university is also contributing to your HSA ($1,300 – single coverage, $2,000 - family coverage).
- Access the healthcare modeler tool available to help you choose a plan that works best for you and your family.
- Visit the Open Enrollment website for more information on your healthcare plans and other benefits for the Plan Year 2025.
