Dental open enrollment is here!

Today is the start of our annual open enrollment period for dental, life, and disability insurance -- so if you want to make any changes, now’s the time!

If you don’t want to make any changes to your plan, then you’ll be automatically continued in your current plan.

What You Need to Know:

Your dental, life, or disability plan’s benefits are remaining exactly the same. Any copays, networks, and plan designs are identical.

After no rate increase for two years, our plan premiums are increasing. The typical dental enrollee will see a roughly $5-8 increase in premiums per month; life and disability premiums will increase about $4-7 per month. You can see your new dental, life, and disability rates here.

For a limited time, there’s no $75 annual fee. This means you’ll have $0 in fees to keep your insurance.

If you are also enrolled in a health plan through Freelancers Union, your dental, life, or disability plan is completely separate and is not affected by any health insurance changes in 2015.

Open enrollment ends on December 15, 2014.

Want to make changes?

If you want to make changes to your dental, life, or disability plan, please access our online billing and enrollment portal by logging in to freelancersunion.org and selecting “Manage my Insurance” in the “My Account” dropdown menu. Changes will take effect on January 1, 2015.
