Open enrollment has one week to go — until 5 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 25. This is your annual opportunity to:

• Enroll in or opt out of UC-sponsored medical, dental and/or vision plans.
• Transfer to a different medical or dental plan.
• Add eligible family members to your medical, dental and/or vision plans.
• Opt in or out of TIP (tax savings on insurance premiums); enrollment is automatic unless you previously opted out.
• Enroll or re-enroll in flexible spending accounts, for health care expenses and dependent care expenses. These are the only plans that require positive re-enrollment; participation does not carry over automatically into the next year. (If you enroll in the Blue Shield Health Savings PPO medical plan, you may not enroll in the health flexible spending account for 2015.)
• Increase your waiting period for supplemental disability, but only if you are already enrolled for this benefit, and only if you are signed up for the seven- or 30-day waiting period (before the benefit begins). For 2015, premiums for the seven- and 30-day waiting periods are going up approximately 19 percent. You can lessen the impact of rising rates by selecting a longer waiting period.
