Life Events - Benefit Changes
Getting married? Having a baby? Losing health coverage for you or an eligible dependent? These are considered Life Events and make you eligible for a special enrollment period to make changes to your current benefit plan selections. The documentation needs to be uploaded and approved by HR prior to updating your plan elections online. Please take this into consideration when your deadline is approaching as HR is closed on weekends, holidays and in the evenings. If the entire event enrollment process is not completed within 30 calendar days, the coverage change will be denied. The next opportunity to make a coverage change will be during the annual open enrollment, for an effective date of January 1st. Information about Life Events can be found on the Benefits Section under Life Events.
Open Enrollment: November 4 - 22, 2019
Open Enrollment for 2020 benefits at BGSU will be from November 4 - November 22, 2019. Please review all of the information and attend an Open Enrollment Information Session to make well informed decisions. If you have questions, please contact the benefits area within the Office of Human Resources at benefits@bgsu.edu.
