2025 BENEFITS OPEN ENROLLMENT

This is a passive open enrollment year, which means you are not required to re-enroll in benefits unless you decide to make changes or elect any new benefits. However, employees are required to complete the following every year:

• Re-enroll in flexible spending accounts (FSAs).
• Complete the Spousal Affidavit if you have a spouse covered on your medical plan.
• NEW: To keep your short-term disability coverage, you must re-enroll in Renown’s new short-term disability plan with The Standard. Your Aflac plan will end on Dec. 31, 2024.
