2013 Open Enrollment FAQs
If I don’t want to change what I have do I need to do anything?
No, your 2012 choices will carry over to the 2013 plan year, however if you wish to participate in the Flexible Spending program you will need to re-enroll at this time.
Last year we heard about a credit for waiving benefits, what do I need to do? How much is it? Can I keep Dental?
Yes, last year we sent out an email letting the community know about the $150 dollar monthly credit should you wish to waive medical benefits for the 2013 plan year.

You and your family can keep the dental benefits and still be eligible for the credit.
