It’s open enrollment time for school employees through the School Employees Benefits Board (SEBB). Open enrollment takes place from October 31 through November 21, 2022. Enrollments, changes, and premiums are effective January 1, 2023. 

This is your chance to change your medical, dental, or vision plans. All of the information you need can be found on the Health Care Authority website. 

Open enrollment is your chance to:

• Change your medical, dental, or vision plans.

• Add or remove a dependent.
  Note: If you enroll a dependent, you must provide proof of your dependent's eligibility with your enrollment form before we can enroll them. Check the list of acceptable documents.

• Reattest to the spouse or state-registered domestic partner coverage premium surcharge.

• Enroll in a Medical Flexible Spending Arrangement (FSA), Limited Purpose FSA, and the Dependent Care Assistance Program (DCAP). You must enroll again in these benefits every year you want to participate.

• Waive your enrollment (employees only) in medical coverage, if you have other employer-based group medical coverage, a TRICARE plan, or Medicare. Note: You may waive enrollment in SEBB medical to enroll in PEBB medical only if you are also enrolled in PEBB dental. By doing so, you also waive enrollment in SEBB dental and vision.

• Enroll in medical coverage, if you previously waived SEBB medical for other employer-based group medical, a TRICARE plan, or Medicare. (Employees only)

Not making changes for 2023?

• If you do not want to make any changes and your health plans are still available in your county for 2023, you do not need to take any action. However, if you cover a spouse or state-registered domestic partner in 2023, you may need to reattest to the spouse or state-registered domestic partner coverage premium surcharge.

• Current FSA and DCAP enrollees, you will need to enroll again each year you want these benefits.

If you have questions about open enrollment, please contact your school district payroll or benefits office.
