Administrative:
• The annual open enrollment period for Plan Year 2010 ends today, November 20, 2009. If you wish to make changes for Plan Year 2010, you must do so today. If you do not wish to make any changes, you do NOT have to do anything, unless you are participating in a Flexible Spending Account Plan (FSA) and wish to continue the FSA for 2010 (participation in a FSA plan requires re-enrollment for each year). To make any changes during the open enrollment period, you should log onto ADP, click on the Benefits tab (then click on My Benefits), continue to the Menu where you should see the Annual Enrollment link for making any benefit election changes. You can print your confirmation once you have submitted any changes.Also, you are reminded that it is mandatory for you to have the social security numbers for ALL your covered dependents in the ADP system by today in order to avoid a lapse in coverage for them. You can verify or update your dependent information in ADP via the link "Update Dependent Information."
Should you need assistance, please contact Human Resources at 678-839-6403.
