Benefits Annual Enrollment for the 2024-2025 plan year takes place from July 15-31, 2024. During Benefits Annual Enrollment, you may make changes to your benefits enrollment, such as adding coverage, dropping coverage, adding dependents, or removing dependents. Any changes made during annual enrollment will become effective September 1, 2024, except for adding Short- or Long-Term Disability coverage, which requires Evidence of Insurability (EOI) or for adding or increasing Voluntary Group Life insurance (VGTL). These types of coverage will become effective when the EOI application is approved. If you elect to add Disability insurance or increase Voluntary Life insurance, you will be directed to complete EOI online in the system workflow. Your current insurance coverage will continue to the new benefit year, if no action is taken, with the expectation of UT FLEX. UT FLEX is the only benefit that must be renewed every annual enrollment. If you would like to enroll or continue a Health Care and/or Dependent Care Reimbursement account in the next plan year, you must log in to My UT Benefits and make your election.

The resources listed below are available to help you understand your benefit options and make enrollment decisions for the upcoming year.
