Open Enrollment allows employees time to make changes to their Health Plan Coverage. The Open Enrollment Period is the only opportunity to make changes to your coverage unless you have a “qualifying event” such as birth of a child, marriage, divorce, etc.
The Open Enrollment period begins October 1, 2024 through November 1, 2024. A form is not required if no changes are made. If you have questions, please contact me at 575-835-5643 or at angie.gonzales@vaftizo.com.
