Open Enrollment Reminder: April 1-April 23

Open Enrollment for the 2004-2005 plan year began yesterday, Monday, April 12. You should have already received your personalized Open Enrollment materials at your home address. Visit the online enrollment website at www.pennbenefits.upenn.edu 24 hours a day between now and midnight on Friday, April 23 to make changes to your benefit elections. 

Please note that if you are covering dependent children between the ages of 19 and 23 who are full-time college students, you must certify their continued eligibility each year during Open Enrollment. If you fail to do so, your student dependents will not continue to be covered under your plans. To certify a dependent's eligibility, go to the Open Enrollment website at www.pennbenefits.upenn.edu and (1) click on the dependent's name from the Summary page to update the student status to Yes, then (2) click on the benefit type for each plan you want to cover the dependent under (e.g., medical) and update the coverage for this dependent to Yes.

If you have any questions, please call the Penn Benefits Center at 1-888-PENNBEN (1-888-736-6236), Monday-Friday, 8 a.m.-6 p.m.
