Open enrollment for GIC benefits (health insurance, life insurance, long-term disability and flexible spending accounts) as well as the GIC health insurance buyout will begin on Wednesday, April 2 and continue through Thursday, May 1 for an effective date of July 1, 2025.
All the same health insurance plans will be offered. There will be some enhancements to the plans. The basic life insurance benefit currently at $5,000 will increase to $10,000.
In addition to the GIC benefits, we will also be offering open enrollment for the following:
- Trustmark chronic care + life insurance benefits
- MetLife Legal Plan (and other voluntary benefits through Corestream)
- BJ’s Wholesale Club membership discount
An email about open enrollment will be sent out on April 2 along with several reminder emails throughout the month of April.
