What is Open Enrollment?

Open Enrollment is your annual opportunity to reflect on your and your family’s needs and fine-tune your benefits package to match. Many life events can occur over the course of the year that can impact the types of plans and amount of coverage you need. Take this opportunity to think about the changes you and your family have experienced in the past year, or anticipate in the coming year. Then, determine which benefit plans and programs will best meet your needs and make your selections online using the new GW Benefits Enrollment System: go.gwu.edu/enroll4benefits.

What’s Included?

The benefits below are part of Open Enrollment, which runs October 9-27 2023, and can only be changed during this period unless you experience a Qualified Life Event (QLE):

Benefit	What's Included in Open Enrollment:
Health Savings Account	Your 2023 annual election will roll over into 2024. For example, if you elected to contribute $1,000 for 2023, you would have an automatic election of $1,000 for 2024.
Medical and Prescription Plan	The same plan you have now.

These benefits are part of Open Enrollment, and can only be changed once per year during Annual Open Enrollment, unless you have a qualified life event.
