Open Enrollment Begins TODAY

Open Enrollment runs Oct. 16 through Nov. 3. Each year in the fall, benefits-eligible employees may select and make changes to their health coverage plans based on their needs and the needs of their family. Outside a qualifying life event, this will be the only window during which such changes may be made. Note that all benefits-eligible employees are strongly encouraged to go through Open Enrollment as some benefits selections do not carry over without the employee's annual approval.

Open Enrollment Portal Instructions

Follow the instructions below to complete the Open Enrollment process.

  • Log in to your account.
  • Go to the column titled "Top Employee Resources."
  • Click "Start Your Open Enrollment."
  • Click "Open Enrollment."
  • Take some time to review the instructions at the top of each page.
  • Click "Start Open Enrollment."

Key Things to Remember

  • Clicking on the Open Enrollment Banner in FlashLine will direct you to the 2024 Open Enrollment web pages, where you will find important information concerning your 2024 health care plans and more.
  • Each time you access the 2024 Open Enrollment Portal, you must click 鈥淪ave and Finish 2024 Open Enrollment鈥 to ensure your most recent changes/updates are saved for the 2024 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 2024. If you want to participate in a healthcare or dependent care FSA during calendar year 2024, you must access the Open Enrollment portal to make that election, even if you had an account in 2023. 
  • 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 2023. Remember, the university is also contributing to your HSA ($1,100 鈥 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 2024 Open Enrollment website for more information on your health care plans and other benefits for the 2024 benefits plan year.

Contact the benefits office at (330) 672-0392 or benefits@kent.edu with any questions or for additional information.
