Make Your Choices During
Open Enrollment, July 11-29

Open Enrollment --- July 11-29 --- is the time of year for employees to enroll in or make changes in Bon Secours benefit plans, so be sure to consider the options for your 2017 Medical, Dental, Vision, Life and Disability Plans.

You don't need to take any action if you do not have any changes to make. Your coverage will automatically roll over to the new Plan Year, which begins Sept. 1.

To learn more, check out the mobile-friendly Open Enrollment flipbook.

Although Plan changes are minimal, consider whether your current benefits are still the best choice.

	The pharmacy vendor for Aetna plan participants will change to CVS Caremark on Sept. 1.
	Pharmacy costs are rising sharply. While Bon Secours will continue to pay the majority of these costs, in 2017, all co-pays for non-preferred medications will be $75. There will be no physician-directed exceptions.
	The additional premium charged to cover a spouse or legally domiciled adult (LDA) in the Medical Plan will increase to $15 per pay period. Spouses and LDAs average 25 percent higher medical costs than employees.
	Employees who have an annual salary of $150,000 or greater currently pay an extra premium when enrolled in the Medical Plan. This premium will increase by $10 per pay period.

If you plan to enroll from home during Open Enrollment, you should set up this authentication in advance. If you don't, it could add up to 30 minutes or more to your enrollment process.

There is a self-service link where you can download the necessary VIP Access app on your own. For technical assistance contact the eISSC at 1-866-809-9259.
