Each fall the university offers a Benefits Open Enrollment period which applies to employees currently eligible to enroll in the university’s health/benefit plans. It is a time to review your current benefit elections and your personal data to ensure that everything is current and accurate.
Benefits decisions made during the open enrollment period will take effect the following January and will remain in effect throughout that calendar year. Any eligible employee may enroll for the first time, re-enroll (i.e.: flexible spending accounts) or change plan choices or change dependent coverage during open enrollment.
To access additional information on medical, vision, dental, prescription drug and life insurance programs, click any of the links on the left side under Benefits.
Questions regarding open enrollment or your benefit choices should be directed to the Benefits Office Hotline at 330-672-MyHR (6947) or benefits@kent.edu.
