Open Enrollment

For Faculty, For Staff, Human Resources, Midd Points
Open Enrollment for Middlebury’s 2018 Health & Welfare Benefit Plan is being held from November 1 – 14, 2017.  All benefits-eligible employees are required to complete the open enrollment process within this time period even if they do not intend to make benefit changes for 2018.

Open Enrollment is your opportunity to:

• Continue your current medical, dental, or vision elections into the new year OR add coverage for yourself and/or dependents OR terminate your own or your dependents’ coverage.
• Continue your current voluntary life and/or accidental death and dismemberment coverage for the new year OR increase OR decrease the amount of existing coverage in these plans OR apply for new coverage (subject to approval).
• Enroll in the healthcare and/or the dependent care flexible spending account(s) for next year. If you do not make an FSA election, you will not be contributing for 2018 even if you participated in 2017.  For more information, including Healthcare FSA rollovers, please click here.
