Annual Open Enrollment, Benefits Fairs coming

Open Enrollment, the period each year when UW employees can make changes to their health care and other benefits, will run Nov. 1-30. Any changes made will then become effective January 1, 2011.

There will be three benefits fairs in early November where members of the UW community can visit in person to learn more about health care, insurance, home buying, investing, and retirement options. The fairs are as follows:


  • 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 2, UW Medical Center and Health Sciences lobbies.
  • 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 3, Mary Gates Commons.
  • 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 4, Harborview Medical Center Research and Training Building lobby, 300 Ninth Ave., Seattle.

Plan changes are outlined online here.
