Open Enrollment: Getting the Most from Your Benefits
Kelli Wagner: Hi, my name is Kelli Wagner, and I am one of your Senior Benefits Specialists for San Juan Regional Medical Center. I am excited to share with you some of the details of our upcoming open enrollment for 2025. This will be taking place starting Tuesday, October 29 through Tuesday, November the 12th.
As in years past, this year's open enrollment is considered a passive enrollment. You may think, "What does that mean?" It means that all elections with the exception of a health savings account and/or flexible spending account, participants will need to re-enroll in this benefit for next year as any current elections will not carry over to the 2025 plan year. Should you not wish to visit Workday to review your open enrollment task, your benefits from 2024 will carry over into 2025. Again, with the exception of the flexible spending account and/or health savings account. It is still recommended that you visit Workday and review your benefit selections along with your beneficiary designations.
Some highlights to keep in mind. The wellness program participation via Annual Wellness Blood Work and WellWorks BMI continues offering a $60 a month savings on your medical insurance. This is $720 in savings in a year. All open enrollment information will be found on the San Juan Regional Medical Center intranet page. We will be holding informational sessions beginning on Wednesday, October 30th in person and via Webex. Please visit Healthstream to enroll in your choice of session and time.
We are happy to announce that caregivers will not see an increase in premiums. This is in thanks to San Juan Regional Medical Center for absorbing the increase of any cost increase, which is a great gift to all of us. Please be on the lookout as postcards have been mailed out to all caregivers with more information.
I would like to also invite you to the 2025 Benefits Fair, which will be held on Wednesday, November 6th from 7:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. in Cafe La Ventana. Come on by to visit with our benefit vendors, your benefits team, and your wellness team. This year, we will also be hosting the second annual Chili Cook-Off. Please watch for more information on how to enter the Chili Cook-Off coming soon.
I would like to thank you for your time and we look forward to seeing you soon during our 2025 Benefits Fair.
