As another year winds down, its time to start preparing for our 2017 annual benefits re-enrollment period. This years re-enrollment will take place from Monday, November 7 through Friday, November 18 at Noon. As a result of several additions and enhancements to our benefit offerings, its required that each benefit eligible faculty & staff member complete the online re-enrollment process to ensure you have the benefits that best meet your needs.
This is a great time to take a look at the following to ensure a successful re-enrollment.
- Review your current benefit elections ~Parnassus~ IC Employee Self Service ~ Benefits ~ Individual Choice
- Verify full time student status for your dependents over 19 if you haven't already (If you receive educational benefits for your dependent, FT student status is verified)
- Be sure any family members that you have not previously covered are in our system and verified as eligible dependents. Contact benefits@ithaca.edu for assistance
- Confirm your home address is up to date in Parnassus. This is important as new insurance ID cards will be going out
- Make sure all your dependents & beneficiaries have social security numbers on file. Please complete a dependent contact update form to provide this information and forward to Human Resources
Another great way to prepare for re-enrollment is to attend the Annual Ithaca College Employee Benefits & Work/Life Fair. Join us on Wednesday, November 2, 2016 in Emerson Suites from 10am to 2pm. Benefit Eligible faculty & staff only please. Bring your College ID.
