Resources for open enrollment
You can learn more about your health plans, 2025 premiums, and other insurance options during the SEBB Program’s annual open enrollment (October 28 through November 25) in person and online.
In-person benefits fairs
During annual open enrollment, there will be in-person benefits fairs at different locations throughout the state. This is a chance to speak directly with plan representatives and ask questions about the benefits.
Find the benefits fair nearest you on the Benefits fairs webpage. Before going to an in-person benefits fair, check the webpage for any last-minute changes to the event times, locations and safety requirements. If you have COVID-19 symptoms or a positive COVID test within the past 5 days, please keep others safe by staying home and visiting the virtual benefits fair instead.
Virtual benefits fair
This online option is a great way to learn about your benefits anytime, anywhere. All you need is a computer, tablet, or smartphone to access the virtual benefits fair. You’ll find links to videos, plan comparisons, and webinars to help choose the right benefits for you and your family.
Webinars
Register and attend live and recorded webinars hosted by our medical plan carriers on the SEBB open enrollment webinars webpage.
