As you know, Open Enrollment for 2024 benefits is going on now. You have until 11:59 p.m. on Oct. 31 to choose or change your benefits.

Open Enrollment for 2024 benefits begins today and ends at 11:59 p.m. on Oct. 31. Open Enrollment is a good time to review your benefit plans to make sure they meet the needs of you and your family. Who should enroll

Open Enrollment for 2024 benefits will take place in Workday. There are several ways to get help during Open Enrollment.

You may have heard that one of the best ways to save money on healthcare costs is by staying in network. But what does that mean exactly?  For VUMC health plan members, it means utilizing providers and services in the Tier 1 and Tier 2 networks. A network is a group of physicians, hospitals, and other health care providers that have agreed to provide medical services at pre-negotiated rates. These pre-negotiated rates are lower than what that provider would charge a non-member. 

Open Enrollment is your annual opportunity to choose the benefits that best serve you and your family. But there may come a time when you need to change your health benefits plans outside of the annual Open Enrollment period due to a change in your personal or work life. If so, you can declare a life event.

This Open Enrollment season, the Benefits Team is offering several ways for employees to get answers to their questions, including offering an Open Enrollment information sheet and the Open Enrollment home mailer translated into Arabic and Spanish. Visit the Open Enrollment website at hr.vumc.org/oe to download these documents or click the links below.  

Open Enrollment for 2024 benefits begins Oct. 17. Beginning, Oct. 1, you can access all the necessary resources you need to make the best choices for you and your family on the Open Enrollment website.

The HR Benefits team will host several opportunities in the coming weeks for employees to learn more about Open Enrollment and what’s new this year as well as learn how to make changes to your plans. Open Enrollment Webinars

Each year, during Open Enrollment, you can contribute to a health care or dependent day care flexible spending account.  FSAs allow you to set aside pretax dollars to pay for eligible out-of-pocket medical, dental and vision expenses and/or dependent day care expenses throughout the year.

VUMC health plan members can take advantage of enhanced benefits to help you and your adult dependents get care when, where, and how you need it, and at an affordable price. 24/7 Nurse Navigator Center
