The 2016-2017 Health Care Open Enrollment period for state employees begins Monday, May 9, 2016 and ends Friday, June 3, 2016
Coverage selected during the open enrollment period will be effective July 1, 2016 through to June 30, 2017. The annual open enrollment period is the only time employees may change medical and/or dental plans or the dependents they cover without a qualifying status change. It is also the time when employees can change their Health Enhancement Program (HEP) election.
Plan Updates
Information on plan offerings and changes for the upcoming year is posted on the Office of the State Comptroller's Open Enrollment 2016 website. This includes the 2016 Active Employee Planner, and the 2016 Open Enrollment Fair Schedule and a 4 minute tutorial on the Health Enhancement Program.

Employees interested in making changes may request enrollment change forms from Human Resources at benefits@uconn.edu or (860) 486-3034. As a reminder, any employee adding a dependent to his or her insurance is also required to provide proof of the relationship, such as a marriage license for a spouse or a full-length birth certificate for a child.
