Don't Let Open Enrollment Pass You By

Friday November 6, 2009

Open enrollment is the time to make changes to your benefits package. You can drop some of your coverage or enroll in additional plans. If you have recently married or have had a child you may want to consider changing some of your coverage options like increasing your life or disability insurance. You may also want to atke advantage of your Flexible Spending Account to cover health and day care costs. These plans can save you money in the future, and are worth taking the time to figure out if they are right for you.

This weekend take a few minutes to sit down and go over your benefits. Determine if you want to continue where you are or if you want to add or drop any of the plans. It is also a great time to think about increasing your retirement contributions.
